Head-ON With Robyn Roxanne Kincaid - Head-ON With Roxanne Kincaid, 22 June 2026, Moran Monday

Episode Date: June 23, 2026

The pool ain't pooling. The ducks are dying. Jaydee ain't vice-presidenting. The Iranians ain't surrendering. And the Israelis murdered the turtle lady. Proving what the HORN Community knows, the WaPo is declaring that gasp Tulsi is, was, and always has been a member of a cult. We've only been talking about that for nigh a decade. 

The password is inclement. It's showtime. Here we go, live from behind the corn phone curtain. It's head-on with Roxanne Kincaid. Three hours of cussin and discussin with America's only liberal transbilly elitist right here, right now, on the head-on radio network. Brought to you in part by Cole River Mountain Watch,

who invites you to be part of the uprising against mountaintop removal, CRMW.net. And now, from high in the hills of West by God, Virginia, here she is. Roxanne Kincaid. Well, howdy. And here we go, off and running on this 22nd day of June. 2006, this is the horn. Head on.com.

Live is where you'll find us on the interweb tube. That's where you go if you'd like to be part of the Mary Wacky Zany Realtime Natcat multimedia extravaganza that is the horn chat room, the old holler tree, that is easily accessed by going to head on dot live and clicking on chat room. And Claire, let's see, she's signing in now. Let's see if anybody's there. Hey, there's Ralph's. Good afternoon, Ralph's. And good afternoon, everyone.

If you are a member of the podcasting contingent of the Horn Family Community Congregation, well, thank you very kindly for sharing your time with us in that fashion. If I could continue to ask you to keep leaving comments, keep leaving remarks, reviews, wherever you download the podcast, it's incredibly helpful as we go through these hellscape, years and hopefully meet new like-minded friends. Yeah. Oh, hi, I'm Roxanne. If you're listening live, well, I apologize for the delay.

We have a, we've had a day-long series of lines of thunderstorms and severe thunderstorms cells passing through and one was passing right at airtime and I figured well I've been through this before it really sucks to start the show and then just here boom and you know Appalachian Power runs under the bed like a terrified chihuahua and then everything has to then we have to wait for the power to come back and I mean it's intensely frustrating to do that right at the beginning of the program. So I figured I would give it five or ten minutes and maybe the line would pass. Well, so much for me.

We're in the teeth of one right now. And there's another blob coming at us probably in another ten minutes or so. I just heard the distant thunder. So, you know, the standard disclaimer applies. If we're chatting merrily along and you're emailing and I'm responding and I'm talking and then all of a sudden there's no program, you know why. So that's where that stands. And I hope that's not the case.

I really hope that's not the case, but there's a distinct possibility of that happening. So fingers crossed. So that's why the password inclement, because the weather certainly is inclement. But every program here at the horn begins with gratitude, and this program is no difference. So thanks go out to our 22nd, 21st, and 20th day of the month subscribers. Thanks again to Auntie Kat for the losing the war on Al. challenge of last week. Thank you.

And thank you to Felicia. Thank you, John. Thanks as well. To Ms. Tracy. So very much. Thank you, Armand. And thank you to Reverbo. Reverbo, what you said about the

Ken's Steakhouse brand of Russian dressing. It's absolutely true. It's fantastic. Dr. John, down in Alabama. Thank you. Thank you, Vincent. Out in Arizona. Thank you all for helping to keep the program on the air. Here's the scary part.

The funding deficit to the end of June is the worst it's ever been. To end the month, fully funded, $6,300. We've never, this is, we are in an undiscovered country. And it makes me a nervous. because got more bills than got money and the bill will stop it uh wait what's that

the bills start coming and they don't stop coming yeah that's a modification of the lyrics of the song rock star yeah so we'll see how we wind up and we've got seven more days well and let's see six more days after this program

to try to get some semblance of funding, full funding going. So, thanks to anybody who jumps in. Profound thanks. So where do we begin? Yeah, I know. No complaints, says Jeremy. We're officially in summer now, and the slow roll to winter has begun. I know.

Saturday was West Virginia, and yesterday was the solstice. Happy first day of summer. Every day after this, every day after yesterday, gets a little bit shorter until we reach the equinox and then it really starts sliding downhill. And thunderstorms are a part of that. So we'll cope.

But I got to tell you, The kitties and the golden one have had a rough couple of days because the little town, about two miles from me, held its annual hometown heritage festival on Saturday. And Saturday nights, of course, you can't have a festival without having a, 20 or 30 minutes of fireworks. Complete with a finale rack, I want to tell you. Your shadow didn't like it worth a dam, and neither did the kiddies.

Sox for Ties and Kyle managed fairly well. Little Miss Lucy, climbed me like a tree and tried to hide behind my neck. And she wasn't purring. She was trembling in it. And I realized it's unreasonable, but it made me angry. And then, so we got their somatic systems all settled down yesterday was a lovely day. And then today.

And it's been thunderstorms all day long. And Shadow, the golden one, oh, he hears thunder. wants to go and fight the thunder. He doesn't like it. He tends to go into his crate or come up and go to where, he'd come up and sit with me or whatever and he just doesn't like it at all. Makes him very upset.

So Saturday night, then this, and it looks like, you know, not to start the program on just a weather forecast, but, Yeah, we get a couple of breaks on Wednesday and Thursday, but apparently this is going to be a, the beginning of this summer is going to be right moist. But where do we go? I've been, I saw this story as the program was coming to a close and really didn't have time to get to it, but here we are. And it's one of those history things.

And by the way, we've got some more in Monday stuff, too. Oh, goodness me. Going back, as far as we can find in history. Oh, God, there she goes. The first job of any general, emperor, strategos, is making sure your force can get out there and fight. And so generals throughout time have set their troops to digging latrines once they had gone

in camp. Pompey Carnifex, the father of Pompey Magnus. Carnifax meaning butcher, because he was one. Carnet, meat, fakio, fakere, fakie, fakum, maker, doer. He's a meat maker. Carnifax. Set his legions to digging latrines that were downstream from the drinking water supply. Trying to avoid plague in the camp, things like cholera.

Robert E. Lee's troops. And Robert E. Lee, of course, graduated very high in his class, if not first, in his class at West Point. And that gave him his choice of detail. and he chose what was at the time the most elite portion of the United States Army, and that was the engineers. And his troops early on called him Granny Lee the Queen of Spades, because he constantly had his troops digging trenches, digging earthworks, and especially digging latrines.

Because there was no better way to, and, you know, in the American society, Civil War, more people died of disease than died of battle injuries or indirectly. You know what I'm getting at. And so here we are. And literally scores of members of the United States military, in particular the Air Force, got sick. trainees at an Air Force base, I think, in Takesass. Yeah, they came down sick. They were unfit for duty.

Why? No, in this case, not because they hadn't dug the trines, but because Whiskey Pete Kegbreath, back in April, said that the flu vaccine would no longer be mandatory, would no longer be required, because they were dumb. and it was stupid. And like, it affected the manliness of the lethality of our manly masculine war fighters.

You know what? The flu virus does not give a fuck. And so that entire group of trainees came down with the flu. One sneezed, another cough, and the next thing you go, no, you've got a hundred and a hundred and more people out sick. One person died. We don't know if they died from flu. I mean,

what a way to run a military, huh? Plugged up toilets on the most expensive, most humongous aircraft carrier on earth. Sailors eating MREs because they have no provisions in their food stores because of the length of deployment. Yeah. Air Force, Marines, Army

left undefended in camps out in the desert wastes of Qatar, the UAE, Kuwait, and of course our partners in peace, Saudi Arabia. Yeah. What a fuck up.

And all for want of something as simple as a vaccine. We live in stupid times. And it fits. For instance, I'm sure that when Whiskey Pete eliminated the flu vaccine requirement,

he did so under the advice of none other than whalehead dead bear raccoon penis brainworm lamprey, who hates him some vaccines and who, it turns out, according to his sister Carrie, well, giving an interview on CNN, speaking to Aaron Burnett last week, Carrie Kennedy described her brother's longstanding fascination with animals going

way back to when he tried to squeeze a goldfish to death in the Oval Office right in front of the eyes of his uncle President JFK. I'm so old I can remember when we talked back in 2004, 2005, about the reported predilection George W. Bush had for torturing little amphibians. No sense in going into it's just sickening to think about. but you know torturing small defenseless animals big red flag among children

when they like to do that that means they're probably going to grow up to be psychopaths and in her interview with Aaron Burnett Carrie Kennedy said about 25 years ago she threw a birthday party for her daughter this is a quote I was looking in the garden and I found a snake. So I called Bobby.

He just lived a mile down the road and I said there's a snake in the garden. And he rushed right over with his infant son in one arm, a pillowcase in the other. And he captured the snake in the pillowcase. It didn't even bother to put down his little son. Quote, he grabbed the snake and stuffed it into the pillowcase. while he was holding his infant son, so that was a little scary. So then he walked up to where the rest of the birthday party was, and he reached into the bag, and the snake was just chomping on his hand,

and he pulled out the snake to show the kids. Jesus, he's a sick, sick man. Interesting that she's recounting this story last week after the video came out of him grabbing a couple of snakes who were trying to do the belly to back to belly to back, to belly to back, to belly, to back, to belly to back. you know, a snake with two backs kind of thing and let them chomp on him for a little bit,

non-venomous snakes. And at one point he saw a little rodent, probably a little chipmunk or a mole or a vole or something. And he grabbed it and threw it in the bag with the snake. The little children in the pool were terrified and traumatized and were screaming. and Carrie Kennedy said, then he shoved his hand back into the pillowcase and grabbed the snake, which chomped on him a few more times,

and he released this snake that had chomped on his hand into the swimming pool, which was filled with tons of kids. So, snakes, raccoons, bears, dead whales, lampreys, yeah, but at the same time, he's... deeply concerned about actual doctors who provide actual treatments to actual people.

Have another glass of raw milk, Bobby. Maybe some nice, warm, sourcrow. Bubbly and fizzy. Make sure to... You know, at this point in time, I'm surprised he's even still actually cooking his steaks. What a weirdo. and he's in charge of the health and well-being of the entire

United States of America. You know what, Jeremy? It's perfectly healthy to grab a snake or two in your lifetime. It's just become an issue if you shake it more than twice after and it quickly becomes playing with a snake. I mean, a good friend of mine in college had a Oh, I think it was a ball python. He lived in New Jersey, and when he would drive down to West Virginia,

after a visit home, he'd bring her with him. And she loved to ride sitting on top of the defroster vents, because it was warm and toasty there. And, you know, she'd go out and crawl around, and, you know, she'd coil up my arm and didn't creep me out. but I also wasn't knocking on his door every day going, hey, can I play with the snake? No. No, Bobby's just a deeply, deeply sick man.

Meanwhile, it's okay if a couple of hundred Air Force recruits get the flu. It'll build herd immunity. Jesus. And, you know, those are just a couple of little bits of nothing. Randy Radar asking, can we put the older black women in charge now? They won't be able to mess things up any more than these mediocre white men. Heck, they might actually unfuck the country. And Lee in New York going back to, yeah, second in his class behind Charles Mason.

That was how Bobby Lee graduated. Grant, who went on to kick his ass, ranked 21st out of 39 in his class. Thank you. Thank you, Lee, serving as the horn ad hoc civil war. War General's Research Department. Thank you. All-Star, Smashmouth. Lee says,

altering a line for nitwit, Natcho Nero. All that wall art ain't gold. And later in the song, I said, yep, what a concept. I could use a little fuel myself, and we could all use a little change. Well, in this case, it's a lot of change. Mm-hmm. And like I said, it's more in Monday, so we've got a lot of

stupidity to go into. We've talked about loyalty among nitwit Nero's boot lickers, and anyone who takes a job in his cabinet does so, knowing full well that 100% loyalty 100% of the time is the cost of the job, and then you have to just sit there and take it when Orange Jesus starts. insulting and denigrating you. So this is a thing that happened. Energy Secretary Chris Wright, and again, anybody who works in this cabinet,

is deeply morally flawed. There's no way around it. The moment in question was nitwit Nero drawing his little Klansman signature with his Sharpie on executive orders that commanded federal agencies to get with it, shifting to what, post-quantum cryptography and boosting money into the domestic computing. And so it was that the Secretary of Energy, who you would expect to maybe have something to say in

this, began with a... A story about Albert Einstein, who was definitely, you know, woke. 120, 141 years ago, Albert Einstein, 121 years ago. Albert Einstein published a paper on the phone. Nobody cares. It won't catch you. Pubbs and paper on the photoelectric effect. Nobody cares.

Wait, you're telling a story and it's not about me? Nobody cares. And again, that's that filter. That's that filter decay. When dementia really begins to kick in some... Rudeness can come along with it. Nobody cares. Yeah, go ahead.

Nobody cares. Good point, sir! God, these belly crawling... Goons. ...reizing the quantum behavior of light, that it came in quanta. 40 years after that, President Trump's uncle, John Trump, was a pioneer in applying light radiation and the reflections of it to develop radar at the MIT Radiation Lab. Critical in D-Day, critical in the end in winning World War II.

Oh, wait, we're talking about my family. You're still not talking about me. Yeah, it's going to be, yeah. It's like this all the way. It's morans all the way down. Never mind the turtle and the elephant. It's just morans. And then there was what happened over the weekend.

J.D. Vance went to Switzerland to meet with his Iranian counterparts and got treated like garbage by the Iranians and had to just take it. A man named Amjad Taha. who has some passing familiarity with diplomacy, particularly in the Middle East, observed the video of the event and said plainly, this was humiliation. No one in modern history has made America wait and beg for negotiations. This was the moment J.D. Vance should have returned to Washington.

The Islamic regime did this on purpose. Trump, if you don't understand politics, you should at least understand protocol. The visuals from Switzerland. The U.S. delegation entered well before the Iranians. In diplomacy, the side with leverage doesn't wait in the room. You claim to be leading and winning, yet you arrived first. First mistake. Kali Bof did not enter while the press was inside.

J.D. Vance did. Another mistake. It looked as though you didn't just abandon allies, including Israel. Ha! You also diminished America's image by ignoring basic diplomatic protocol. Another point, the Iranian foreign minister entered last and refused to shake hands. We didn't need photographs to tell us who looked confident and who looked desperate, but these images made it easy for the world to draw its own conclusions.

Ron Filipkowski noting the U.S. has never looked smaller or weaker on the world stage. Jesus, the humiliation. and apparently some there know that this is not good for the JD egg his own people are beginning to flip out a little bit watching his theoretical run for the presidency in 2028 crash and burn now I know this is probably going to sound a little paranoid but well you know JD's obviously not up to the tag I'll have to just stay on, you know, if he's still alive. But everything, you know, when you even fuck up a pool, wow, it's all collapsing around him. And it's not just me saying that other people, hell, Republicans are talking about it.

And then there's the curious business of a photograph. The prime minister of Qatar, Muhammad bin Abdul Rahman bin Jassim Al-Tani, posted a photograph of him with the JD Egg or Jimmy Dick Bowman or whatever his name is on his birth certificate and the people who look at such sorts of things who find such things telling who comb through them for the hidden meaning I mean we're not talking about playing Beatles records backwards or anything what's the record never mind The JD Egg is sitting down and he's clacking away on a laptop, and he's beside the cuttery Prime Minister.

Jared is standing behind them, but the funny thing that people noticed was there's something sticking in the laptop. It's what the computer nerds know as a common access card. That's an ID card that's used by, Pentagon folks, military. But it's a photo ID too. And zeroing in on the photo, the picture on the card is not,

at least it's not the J.D. Vance we think we know. The photo ID on the card is a woman. And people saw that and just went off. A journalist Caroline O. Buena said, I'd love to know the intended symbolism of Cutter's Prime Minister posting a picture of J.D. Vance logging into a laptop using someone else's CAC card. There's 100% a read-between-the-line's message being sent.

By the way, Cutter is not a signatory to the memo of understanding. Tim Miller at the bulwark asked, why is a Saudi agent with no security clearance representing America in this meeting? And of course, nowhere to be found was the other guy who thinks he's presidential timber low Marco. It was a complete fuck up and some might say a setup

that they are deliberately tanking J.D. Vance because Daddy doesn't like him anymore. Just like how Daddy got to the point where him didn't like Mike Pence's soul neck geek anymore because they thought that they had

that they were independent actors. and had their own agency. And, well, going from, nobody cares, to getting testy over everybody in the world knowing that, well, he started a war,

and now he's lost a war, well, people are asking questions that he doesn't like. This was at the same press gaggle in the Oval Office where he said nobody cares A reporter said War with Iran could cause worldwide depression As you noted Mr. President Are you willing to risk economic catastrophe

And strike Iran again And this was the answer Well not the way I'm doing it It won't cause depression Nuclear weapons supersedes depression Depression is real bad Nuclear weapons will cause depression So then the reporter

Pressing in said if you're willing to cause economic harm to Americans, does that give the Iranian regime leverage over you? Their Navy is gone. Their Air Force is gone. Their leaders are all dead. Their country is a mess. Their economy is shot.

The reason the news is doing so badly, or put another way, the reason why I won in a landslide, even though I got 92% negative press, Because he can't, you'll notice he's not answering the question, he's going back to grievance farming. Nobody believes the press anymore. They have to start believing. The times and everybody else, they're grasping for straws. So when you ask a question like that, it's so stupid.

I thought I was crazy. But I fooled them. I caught them with the strawberries. Oh, crazy old grandpa sundown. sundown seems to come sooner and sooner each and every day and he got pissed off about the reflecting pool because people asked him in the same press gaggle ed o'keefe from c bs news uh asked nitwit nero if he had any proof that someone had taken a knife to the reflecting pool now a former olympic cyclist was arrested over the weekend. He had been cycling about, and, you know, a lot of people use the mall for, the national mall for, you know, just getting out and enjoying the day. It can be a beautiful thing.

I've seen people, for instance, flying those huge kites. and whilst riding skateboards, I got to admit, it looks kind of fun. But people go there, they run, they stroll, they picnic. And this guy had just been riding his bike, and he stopped at the reflecting pool because everybody's heard about what a disaster it is. And he literally put his hand in the water and touched the peeling paint, at which point

he was surrounded by park police and taken into custody and charged. So now Nitwit Niro is claiming that the pool was sabotaged and he's created

in the thin gray settlings between his ears that are populated largely by shrieking spirochetes. Now he's decided that the reflecting pool and the horrible paint job that came up, started peeling all of its own accord. Well, it was the sabotage.

This way, when you have a 350, I think it's 350, not 250, a 350 foot slit from one end to the other, you think that's proof? What boys have been down there today looking for that slit that you mentioned? Well, you'd have to do a seat. the parks department they'll show it to you or see see the secretary but i saw it they cut it they cut it very violently the same thing with the floor they cut it and then they lifted it they pulled it and that's what it is and you know we've done over 50 monuments again can't stay on topic we've done more than 50 monuments now let's ponder that for a minute a jagged 350

50-foot-long slit in latex flat wall paint in one of the most surveilled spaces on earth. And so O'Keefe said, you know, reporters have been down there today looking for that slit you mentioned. There's no evidence. They cut it very violently. What is that? Do we get the, e-ep, e-ep, e-ep, psycho music? You write fake news. Dude works for C. BS News.

I got a feeling he ain't gonna have a job for long. Yeah. And now he said, anybody who's got vandalizing my projects, you're gonna go to prison for 10 years. Five people are already under investigation. Yeah, they called me old Yellowstone. Excuse me of steaming in circles.

God, I'm... And, uh, Lee in New York, the photoelectric effect. It was why Albert Einstein won the 1921 Nobel Prize. Relativity was too controversial Einstein's discovery. Gave us green energy. Pathetic pool boy gave us green algae. It's the new green, new deal. It's the algae new green new deal.

Algae never grows in pools. You have to put it there. I know, Lee, it's crazy talk. They cut part of the reflecting pool. How could they do it? It's longer than the Empire State Building is tall. Same, same for the Eiffel Tower. So big.

Bigger than anyone has ever seen. Yeah, and just for scale, it's longer than the Eiffel Tower is tall. Well, here where I live, most every day. And you've heard me talk about it a lot because it's beautiful. and I love it. The New River Gorge Bridge is 876 feet between the deck of the bridge and the new river below. And that, I've always heard, is three feet shorter than the height of the Eiffel Tower. So, yeah, a 900-foot-long slit.

What did he say? A 350-foot slit. You know, it's not like you can run through the walk. I know. I know. Okay, that's what it's called. Thank you, Jeremy. The words you're looking for for said activity are kite surfing, even on a sidewalk.

Yeah, beach boys, sidewalk surfing. Re-sabotage McCamble Cardinal Brother Deacon says, I thought this cock-sucking orange turd has been telling us that D.C.'s the safest place on earth because of what he's put in place of the last year and a half. How did these hardened criminals get away with vandalizing that magnificent paint job under just 18 inches of crystal clear water? I'm telling you, every day. We get a little closer to that scene from the cane mutiny. He's going to be talking about strawberries any day now. Oops. Ralps has a $25 challenge to get us started on the evening. Thank you very. very kindly ralps.

Leon Scum is a little less rich, according to Forbes, with the SpaceX IPO that people, the fools, you know, fools rush in where angels fear to tread. Fools bought and then promptly sold in trading today, SpaceX, plummeted 16.4%. It's now selling under $155 a share.

Its debut close was $160. And June 16th, it peaked at $225.64 a share, having fallen to $155, well, Leon Scum's imaginary worth has plummeted by about $350 billion. Now he's barely a trillionaire. He's just worth not quite $1.1 trillion as of close of business today. Oh.

And he has 38% of SpaceX, 4.8 billion shares. What a dodge. 350 million in stock options with an exercise price of $8.40 per share, geez. and SpaceX has the lowest rating on a seven-tier sustainability scale issued by MSCI, a stock market index provider. They noted that SpaceX is lagging its industry because of significant environmental, social, and governance issues.

So now, with the Roobes having been bought in, SpaceX declared today that they're going to do a bond issue because they've got to raise money to refinance a short-term loan in order not to further dupe the existing rubs, I mean,

shareholders. So we've got a $25 challenge for that. If anybody's got $25 bucks sitting around, well, we're trying to avoid finishing the month a month and a day unfunded

so we could bring that down but if you've got 25 Ralphs wants to turn it into 50 for you oh and there's Theo in the chat hey Theo hope PT went well today hope you're recovering well Donnie after dark Christopher says

so Donnie's mush mouth nonsense gets crazier in the evening time to strike up the Gordon Lightfoot Don't make me sing We'll just read these lyrics Although I can see Donnie lying back in the Oval Room His smelly full depends Spell Certain Doom

Sundown, you'd better take care Donnie's creeping on your daughter Under the Backstairs Donnie's creeping on your daughter Under the Backstairs Ooh, that's a dandy. Good job, Christopher. Glad you're back home.

And thank you to other Christopher, writing merely RELPS. Christopher has met the Leon Scum is $350 billion poorer today challenge. And so that gets us down to 6250 to finish. the month. Ooh.

Thank you, Christopher. Thank you so so much. Yeah, I know, Flavio. Let's get this straight. About that trillionaire. The only reason he's rich at all is because of government contracts. So basically he's supposedly that wealthy because he's siphoning public money into his scam. Sure. It's what billionaires do. And look, we've been given it.

It's not just a Trump. thing that we've been giving him contracts since hell probably the second term in office of Barack Obama you want to know something wild I mean not really wild but I can remember being at NetRood's Nation in Vegas and it's so long ago I can't remember exactly when that was Obama was president we flew out there we were promoting the alliance for Appalachia and the ache campaign and Coal River Mountain Watch. And we were in the main exhibit hall. Annette brought home a freebie because SpaceX had an exhibit at NetRutes Nation,

the single most well-known progressive gathering of the year. And people were total fanboying and fangirling over Leon Scum. And they were there giving away hats, giving away T-shirts, had the logo on it. Yeah. Damn. And Ralph says, thanks, Christopher. Thanks indeed. So like I said, 6250.

to finish the month fully funded. That's a mighty tall order. I'm not quite sure I follow this, but Randy Radar says the original 115 days estimate for the impact of closure of the Straits of Hormuz calculates as follows 1 plus 31 minus 3 plus 30 plus 31 plus 22 minus 2 June 18th and June 19th.

That equals 110. Okay. And by the way, over the weekend. right after the JD Ag and this maladministration. Oh, here comes the thunder. Another line coming at us again. The standard disclaimer, if I disappear, it's not because I'm throwing a hissy.

Those traits of poor moves are definitely open. Yeah, we sure showed them Iranians. And then the Iranians clapped back and said, well, it's not. We closed it again. Because the United States refuses to get its little bitch boy, B.B. Netanyahu in hand. because he and his fascist cabinet decided to slaughter some more people in Lebanon.

Jesus Christ. Well, they'd kill him too if they got a chance. I mean, remember a couple of Christmases back? You know, Christmas Eve? When they bombed Bethlehem? Well, let's talk a minute. about a lady named Mona Khalil. Mona Kalil, years ago, noticed that there was a turtle nesting site near her home on the coast in Lebanon.

It was near the ancient Levantine city of Tyre. Tire is famous in the history of Alexander. It's mentioned in the Bible. Well, she found this little turtle nest. and she wanted to make sure that the turtles had a fighting chance. So years and years ago, she found it a sanctuary and called it the Orange House Project. Volunteers would come in and they would clean and monitor a mile-long stretch of beach, doing conservation work to protect the nesting grounds of the turtles,

and when the turtles would hatch and they would begin their... their wee tiny little journey to the sea where if they survived and didn't get snapped up and just snacked on, well, they could grow to full size and live for perhaps hundreds of years. Monacoil is dead. Monocleel was 76 years old. B.B. and his psycho cabinet and his salute-snapping military and the members of that god-awful army murdered her. her house was painted orange kind of hard to

well kind of hard to accidentally hit she had a flower lined courtyard she did dog and cat rescues she had banana groves that led down to the beach

and people would show up tourists ecotourists to watch the little turtles hatch and make their journey to the sea, and she never ran away in the face of Israeli incursions, onslaughts, slaughters. Green Southerners, a Lebanese wildlife conservation group, said her work made her one of Lebanon's most respected voices for marine conservation and biodiversity protection.

Green Southerners strongly condemns the attack that claimed Mona Khalil's life and injured her assistant. The strike targeted a site that had long been known for environmental conservation, biodiversity protection, and public awareness. Her death stands as a stark reminder of the devastating toll that Israeli attacks continue to exact on civilians, environmental defenders, and the natural heritage they sought to protect. live love Beirut another environmental group said she will be remembered through an incredible legacy

her life was selfless and impactful may she rest in peace and may the work she cared for so deeply continue for generations to come you know I understand the requiesque God in Pake motivation frankly I think it would be far more

beneficial if her spirit could torment BB Netanyahu, Idemar Ben-Givir, Belizil Smotrich, Israel cats, and that entire filthy fascist gang out-out-downed spot,

if you will. God, the filthy fucking Israelis, murdered the turtle lady. On top of it, everybody else they've murdered. And the world just says, stop. Or we'll ask you to stop very nicely again. Please stop.

Stop slaughtering the Lebanese. She wasn't Hezbollah, and neither were the turtles. Oh, those were very definitely Hezbollah turtles that were being trained to swim up and attack Israeli vessels. Oh, fuck. God I hate it. it. I hate it. National paranoia so deep that you're willing to slaughter the turtle lady. And what do you want to bet? Those goddamn monsters are laughing about it. Sweet little baby turtles. And the great big mama turtles coming ashore, digging holes in the sand to lay their eggs, hatch them, incubate them, and head back out to sea.

but Mona Khalil was too dangerous to a paranoid pariah state to live. Where do you go after they murdered the turtle lady? Honestly. I'm just watching the weather radar.

It looks like it's passing. Well, we've got a little while before the next band apparently arrives. Maybe an hour or so. Turtle lady. You killed the fucking turtle lady. I mean, when you take the stories that we've begun this Moran Monday with, it paints a picture of collapse, of sheer madness, of a world gone out of its mind,

led by, of course, us. Back to the reflecting pool, CNN sent their reporter Tom Foreman down to the reflecting pool, and he called in a report. A bit, I suppose, surprised. To make D.C. not only safe but beautiful. Oh, that's, that's... Winebox toane. ...individuals.

And these are cases that will be prosecuted to the full extent. Here is the problem, though. One of the, the only name we really know is a former Olympian, David Hearn, a local guy here. And he said he went by, and all he did was reach in. There he is. competing in the slalom canoe for the United States of America. He said he's a material scientist.

He studied material science. He reached into the water just to touch this to see what it was like, to see what this material was like, where it was already loose, and then they came along and they arrested him for this. And part of the question here is if they're arresting him for that being damage, just because he touched it, as he said, the question is, what about the dozens and dozens of workers who have been in there day after,

day walking all over it, pushing these little vacuum things all over it, potentially that causes damage too. In any event, the algae is not under control. It's still there as of this morning, even though they're trying to get it cleared up. And now they're talking about maybe having to drain the whole thing and start over, literally putting tax money, well, figuratively, I guess, down the drain. And I think it's worth reiterating because there's a lot going on in the world, right? But, you know, this is something that the president and the administration had touted that this would be, you know, easy. It would last for a long time. And they've had this sort of confidence since the beginning, right?

Well, he ridiculed all former presidents saying all their efforts were just foolish, a waste of money, and I can do it for less than $2 million. It ended up costing seven times that much. And so far shows no signs of working any better than anything that was tried before. All right. Tom Foreman, thank you. We'll be right back. CNN's the fourth in America. Celebrating 250. July 4th live on CNN and the CNN app. Yeah, I'll pass on that. I mean, it is to laugh. You got these park service, well, they're not park service workers. They're contract employees who work for that Al Capone-looking mobster want-to-be convicted briber in Ohio.

and they're stomping all over it, trashing it, but somehow there's nitwit Nero that has concocted this idea that there's a 350 long violent slit that somebody had to come up with. One of his bootlickers had to come up with that

to give him some sort of an out because daddy can never be wrong and loyalty must run 100% in his direction. somewhere along there's got to be a there has to be a reckoning and the murder of the turtles

and the turtle lady came in New York says paranoia wasn't the reason Israel murdered them. Cruelty and sending a message was bastards yeah you're right somewhere down the road this doesn't end well

and nitwit Niro is still out there is there somebody I can nuke you know he is. The fact of Leon Scum and his trillions. In other words, Flavio says, you and I are the trillionaires, and we're being fleeced. Nobody asked. That's the thing.

Oh, and I ran across this story over the weekend, and it was like, huh, look at us. So far out ahead of the curve, it's like we're on straight road, again, some more. This little program. because the Washington Post had an extensive report on Sunday, in which they noted that Madam Skunkhead, Tolsi Gabbard, has been in a cult all her life, and the head of the cult is a dude named Chris Butler. Her dad was in the cult, too, Tulsi's was.

and way, way, way, way back, even before she was nominated to be Nittwit Nero's D.N.I. From which she has been lately defenestrated, we were talking about that cult. It's so long ago, it's before, it's from the before time for me. And we talked about what a homophobe she was and is. and how that flowed downhill from her guru, or whatever one calls him. So that puts it at more than six years ago. She was a darling of the, ah, a left, what left at one point? I was prone not to fall for it.

But in its article yesterday, the Washington Post said that they had obtained hundreds of confidential memos that, according to the Post, detailed how thoroughly she was controlled by her cult leader, Chris Butler. The Post saying that she was guided by Butler. And the name of the cult, by the way, is the Science of Identity Foundation. People who know about cults will say, yeah, it's a cult. John Swain, writing at the Post, said, former devotees had been telling me for weeks that Butler controlled his followers' major life decisions and demanded total obedience and secrecy.

They said he spent years working to extend his reach into politics, and they suspected Gabbard's rise in Washington was the culmination of that effort. And apparently these memos... Well, dozens of attached memos appeared to document directives and advice for Gabbard. from her time in the Congress of the United States. Some contained instructions on what legislation she should propose, which policy she should embrace, and how she should conduct herself on television. They had an air of authority.

A memo about a proposal to partition war-torn Iraq into three states, quoted an unnamed person as saying it was, Time for T.G. to come up with this idea. Come up with. Yeah. Other memos, he upbraided her. Chris Butler being harshly critical and offering a derisive assessment of her response to an annual address from President Obama. I mean, Jesus.

The guy writes, In the first place, nobody gives a shit what you think about his State of the Union speech, unless you're going to say something of interest. You're not even trying. You've become really intellectually lazy. In another, Gabbard was described as a chicken shit, mealy and mealy-mouthed for her policy chops. And yet we were saying that here more than six years ago. And the Senate of the United States confirmed her to be the head spy of the United States.

I don't think it's safe to say that he probably knows everything about our clandestine operations. Add her to the list. Try her. Well, indict her. Try her. Imprisen her.

No one who has touched this filthy goddamn administration needs to come out of it unscathed. And I love that. A box cutter created algae? Yeah. But now one maggot at least is blathering about

undoing Joe Biden's pardons. Tread lightly. Tread lightly. And it was none other than Comer Pyle who said it. Earlier today saying that Biden's pardon should be declared null and void. He did so. on Fox News TV Radio Rwanda, speaking to Maria Bartaromo.

Mo, Mo, Momo. Do you think that the pardon is legitimate if, in fact, it was done by the autopen? I mean, that's the question. Well, Jesus, the auto pen. Yeah, go ahead. Well, I don't think it's so much the autopin as it is the fact that there were never any meetings

that Joe Biden had with his staff. on these pardons. The only pardon that Joe Biden signed was for his son, Hunter Biden. But let's take the autopin off the table. I know there's a lot about the autopit. I don't want that to be the defense. The defense is there were never any scheduled meetings on his calendar. There was not a single person involved in the pardon process in the decision making

on who authorized the autopin that ever met with Joe Biden and discussed the individual pardon. So there's no evidence Joe Biden had any decision making in the pardon process. So I think that alone is more than enough evidence to declare all the pardons issued by Joe Biden in the last day of his presidency, null and void. Yeah, I mean, this is quite extraordinary. I mean, here you have Anthony Fauci, the one person who knew everything. He was in charge of all this bioweapon money. He actually knew what was happening and where, and he knew.

Anthony Fauci, they draw Anthony Fauci like a gun. And why are they on that? Because they can't talk about Iran, which was a, well, they can't talk about the reflecting pool, which was a distraction from Iran. They can't talk about Iran because it's a distraction from Epstein. The list of shit you probably can't talk about at Fox News, TV, Radio Rwanda. Well, I mean, how lengthy is it that you get an okay to talk about the autopen? Oh, really dumb-dums? Without consultation, who consulted nitwit Niro?

on pardoning people who went on to, you know, be charged with being pedophiles and sexual predators and what have you. Where was that consultation? No. Yeah. And, of course, there's a loopback to Madam Skunkhead because she's, you. she's been out there barking and grunting about Anthony Fauci leading a COVID cover up

I can think of about 1,500, maybe 1,600. Who knows, 2,000 by the time all of a sudden, don't pardons that need to be declared null in the void. Which kind of reminds me of what we've talked about in terms of that one particular executive order on January 20th,

2009, if we get a Democrat in office. I don't know if there are any Democrats that have the nerve to do something like this, but a damnatio Memori, executive order. All acts undertaken by this president, by President Donald J. Trump, are hereby declared null, and void of no effect whatsoever, and the status quo shall be returned to that of January the 19th, 2017. Think about what that would affect.

Bye-bye pardons. Bye-bye everything that his filthy little, greasy orange hands have touched. And going back to Israel slaughtering the turtle lady. Cynthia said, I'm done with Israel, and I have been done for a long time. And I hope the IDF murderer who killed the turtle lady suffers horrific nightmares for the rest of his or her stinking fucking life. But it gets worse, Cynthia notes. I read an article, I think it was on Common Dreams that says Israel has easily killed 650,000 plus people in Gaza. How many people do you have to kill before it's a genocide?

I'd say Israel achieved that a long time ago, too. Fuck them. No sympathy for me for Israel. and I'm not anti-Semitic. Of course you're not. Being opposed to fascists and genocide does not an anti-Semite make. I would criticize that behavior if it was happening in Bolivia. If it was happening in Myanmar,

we were horrified at the Rwandan genocide. Hell, we're, people, historians are still upset about the Armenian Genocide. that you can't even get somebody like Chank Yuzer to acknowledge having even existed. It's just a pity that we have a worldwide structure that says, eh, it's okay if Israel's doing it. Oh, and from Sylvie, hi Sylvie, perfect name for a rock group. Picture it, an all-girl punk band, the violent slits. I'm so proud of you, Sylvie.

I thought of it too, but I'd rather give you the credit. Lee in New York says there will not be a reckoning. It will just be a wrecking again and again. Yeah, I've read some history of the Byzantine Empire, and it's like, they kind of peaked, and then they just tried to hang on and hang on and hang on, and it just got worse and worse and worse, and every now and then a decent emperseq. would show up and sort of patch the holes and whatnot,

but eventually May 1453 arrived, and the streets of Constantinople ran red with Roman blood as the hordes of Mehmet II poured through the breaches in the otherwise impenetrable walls. I'm trying to remember, was it a Bulgarian or a Hungarian engineer? who gave Mechette the second the massive cannon that he finally used to batter down the walls of Constantinople. He had worked first, I can't remember his name now, he had worked first for the Byzantines, but they were broke, and the rest of Europe was like, ah, you know, they're Greek Orthodox, not good Catholics like us, fuck them.

and the emperor could no longer afford the services of the engineer. And so he took his talents where the money was and led to the fall of the last vestige of the Roman West. Yeah. Yeah, that's a great line. Flavio noting, that algae has more job security than half the federal government. Mm-hmm. Tulsi's cult leader, Lee in New York says,

are you telling me the butler did it? Oh, shame on you. In a good way. Yes, the butler did it. I'm proud of you. A little ashamed of myself that I didn't come up with that. And what? Okay, good for you, Leon Scum.

Routts sharing with me. Leon Scum says he's going to sue representative Roe Kana because Ro Kana is out there telling the truth. Rokana says that Leon Skum killed 4.5 million kids with

Doge cuts. But he possibly sentenced to death those 4.5 million kids. Leon Scum butt hurt. So, huh, time to sue this liar. And Kana for his part said he needs to be subpoenaed.

He needs to face investigation. He needs to answer for what he did with Doge. It's not just let's move on. And he said that on the I've Had It podcast, adding, once we take over, once we take power, there needs to be accountability. There needs to be accountability for Elon Musk. You know, they're celebrating that he created 4,400 millionaires, but they don't talk about the 4.5 million children around the world

who possibly sentenced to death by dismantling USAID. And he's a thin-skinned little prick, and he thinks that he can silence anyone, with whom he disagrees. Well, the world ain't Twittered Leon. And by the way, if you find it interesting, Saturday evening, I watched, it's done in two parts. I watched Don Lemon's interview with Ashley St. Clair.

It was quite interesting. On a number of occasions, he would ask her, question and she'd say well that's a great that's a great question that Elon needs to answer in front of Congress hard to disagree but then then it was it got it turned into a bit of a saucer of milk for table two kind of situation as they uh don lemon and actually st. clear started spilling tea about some people and as as don lemon ticked off names. Oh, for instance, he said,

Benny Johnson. Ashley St. Clair shot right back. Gay. And Don Lemon, who's gay, he said, really? And she said, did he not set your gait are off? And he was like, yeah, well, yeah, he does. And then they both talked about the fact that,

oh, I, I know guys who've had sex with Benny. Ooh, spill more tea, girl, spill more tea. please tell me one of them's another Ben, a little Benny dry wife Shapiro, please or Matt dysphoria beard Walsh yeah

so yeah Leon scum, Sue because out there waiting for you is Discovery and well then there's also the hard cold facts

of what happened simply by cutting off Doge, or by Doge cutting off USAID. Oh, one of these days, one of these days. Because, see, I think Leon Scum, he's more than just a weirdo. He's more than just a sociopathic freak. He's got the paranoids, too. And if you know anything, for instance, about the life of Howard Hughes. Howard Hughes was a genuinely brilliant man.

Howard Hughes didn't just buy companies and then claim the reflected glory. Howard Hughes was a talented pilot. And he hated the term spruce goose, but he designed and had that thing built. He hobnobbed with the most beautiful women in Hollywood. he himself was devastatingly handsome in his prime, and it all comes to an end in a hotel room in Las Vegas after he had disappeared from view, and he was found dead in his bed,

unbathed, unclean, unshaven, unkempt, a long, wispy, stringy beard, and surrounded by jars and jars and jars and jars and jars and jars of his own urine. I can see Leon Scum coming to an end like that. You know, minus the handsome part. Minus the brilliant designer and engineer part. I mean, RKO, he owned that at one point in time. Hughes is still on various and sundry

charitable and iliumocinery organizations I don't think you're ever going to see a Leon Scum medical center and can you imagine him getting hold of a movie studio and just turning it into nothing but AI slop

so thanks for the story, Ralphs I hope he sues rocana I bet Rokana kind of does too. And, gee, I hope where Leon Scum is concerned, it doesn't hurt too little. Yeah, Jeremy sent me the picture of the reflecting pool. This guy can't even win a war against algae. That looks greener than the putting greens of his own tacky golf motels.

I wouldn't be surprised if he tried to put on it. And it just gets greener and greener. and greener. And what's the excuse now? Because he's got the National Guard deployed to protect it from the violent slits. Have another one, Sylvie. So what's that excuse going to be? Nullifying the executive orders, Lee, in New York says, I believe that would not affect the pardons. Would we be minting pennies again? I don't know. You know, but, you know, the blanks for the pennies were made in a little town in Tennessee, where that was basically the only job in town. Now it shuddered. That town voted by a wide margin for Canckel's Caligula.

Well, I'll bet if a Democratic president did bring back the penny and brought those jobs right back to that town in northeast Tennessee, they'd say, well, thank God President Trump got that done before he done died or left office or whatever it is. Oh, and as if there wasn't enough of a problem with the reflecting pool, Ralph says, Wah! The reflecting pool now stinks. Shit gets worse by the day.

Oh, I bet it really does smell pretty. And what's that, Matt? Howard and Elon. Good one, Matt. The only difference is the urine jars will all take. positive for ketamine. I mean, really. Ever do K?

It's immobilizing. And this guy's functioning on it every day? Oh, and he's not a fucking genius. No, he's not. And it says something about the status of his brain that he can do anything other than stare at his shoelaces when he doses up.

And in answer to him. your question, man, I have never. That's one of those I missed. And I think I'm glad I did. Remember when the cops and the EMTs murdered a young African-American neurodivergent young man?

He was a violinist. And they murdered him with ketamine. Oh, thank you, says Sylvie. And give yourself at Ramalama Ding Dong for correctly using Elia Mussineri. The art of word knowing stands strong with the horn. One of my favorite words that I learned in law school, Sylvie.

Reflecting pool blame. Lee says, oh, you know Biden did it, and Obama gave him the algae. Of course. How long until, well, yeah. Watergate, says Randy Radar, apparently sprang out of Nixon's paranoia about loans given by Howard Hughes to a Nixon relative. That may have been part of it. but the history of Watergate is complicated and to some extent comical.

Nixon had the race in the bag for the most part once he got musky out of the way, but they were listening to a crazy, seriously crazy old cuck. You know who I'm talking about. He even had a radio show in D.C., the one where he said, Always shoot for the Fed's faces. because they're wearing body armor and helmets. If you shoot them in the face, you'll get them. The Watergate burglary wasn't even necessary.

And Howard Hughes, of course, was convinced that people were out to get him, which doesn't necessarily mean he was crazy. Because Nixon, the inveterate cross-dresser, J. Edgar Hoover. Yeah. It's like Victoria and I were talking about uh... uh... humingley multiple head injuries

plenty of reasons for him to have issues but he was convinced going back to his cuba days because he had sat down and had some conversations with fidel castro that the fbi i were surveilling him and oh papa you're just crazy

here let's take you to the mayo clinic here bite down on this rubber stick and they cooked his brain and then after after he was driven to suicide, well, the FBI files eventually got opened, and yes, Hemingley was right. J. Edgar Hoover was having him surveilled. Probably while wearing a stunning cocktail frock. And Flavio says if it's anything like Lake Mendota in Madison, Wisconsin, I know where Lake Mendota is. In July, because of all the fertilizer runoff and algae bloom, that lake in front of the Memorial Student Union reeks to high heaven.

I lived a block away, and it's hazardous to your health. I don't know if they've done anything about that. Fertilizer runoff is a problem. In the deep south where there are alligators, I'm surprised the alligators can live in the water hazards. They may not for very long, as far as I know. On Friday, we talked about the first day on the job coming up for Bill Pulte, who has no business being at DNI,

Apparently, he showed up to work today and did exactly what was expected in the story on Friday. He started firing intelligence agents. Kristen Holmes at CNN reported all of that, but said that she said she didn't have names or numbers, but the firings of deep state people have begun. This guy's another weird and dangerous creep. politics lead a source tells CNN that firings that the office of the director of national intelligence have started today. Sources had previously told CNN that Bill Pulte, that man there, Trump's picked to serve as acting director, was looking at cutting hundreds of jobs. We'll go right to CNN's Christian Pumption at the White House. So what do we know about the cuts and the number of people affected?

Well, look, that is still what we're trying to figure out right now. I did not get any details from a source that gave me this information on how many people were being cut or where they were being cut from. The only thing that they would tell me was that those firings had begun, giving me the quote directly, the deep state firings have begun. Now, I reached out to the White House, White House official, pointing me to President Trump's previous comments about Bill Pulte specifically saying that he has named Bill Pulte as acting director of the Director of National Intelligence and said, I have asked him to execute the immediate and needed downsizing of the office reverting staff to their home agencies. Now, we had reported last week that Colty was planning on firing hundreds of people from the office of the Director of National Intelligence. In fact, he showed up for work a day earlier than his actual start date and asked for a list of all of the employees, their names, what they did because he wanted to start those massive layoffs. I do want to note, Anderson, we actually saw the acting director here at the White House earlier today. He was kind of standing off to the side during President Trump's executive order signing. unclear if that was related to these firings, his presence in the White House. It is pretty

stunning. One of the things we've heard about Pulte from everybody who knew him was that he had a direct line to President Trump, that he was always at the White House, that he was always calling President Trump. And this is another indication of that. If you look back over the last several months, it was very rare that we would see the Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard in the White House with President Trump. And there he was today. for an EO that is not directly tied to what Pulte is doing. So it just shows to show you the relationship he has with President Trump. And again, these firings have begun.

We are working to get more details on the kind of numbers that we're looking at here. All right. Christian Holmes, thanks very much. Appreciate it. In our world lead, British Prime Minister. Yeah. Well, anyone who could stand in the way of any kind of disinformation coming out because he's been put there to decobey.

that every election that nitwit Nero didn't win was rigged and to rig the upcoming elections in November. And for some reason or another, his paranoid fantasies resonate with Orange Julius Geiser. I know, Micah, how the fuck can an acting head make those kinds of changes? At best, they should be limited to continuing day-to-day ops until such time they are no longer acting or replaced. Yeah, he's probably not even going to get a confirmation hearing.

Because the important part, as I noted on Friday, is that under federal law, he can stay in office for something like 220 days, and that puts him at DNI until after the November elections. Randy Radar says those deep state mostly guys have black budgets that are totally capable of paying salaries. Well, he gets rid of them. He gets those black budgets too, doesn't he? Watch this space. And by the way, I mentioned that what was the topic of the press gaggle and the executive order signing today?

post post quantum cryptography and when it came time for him to sign the executive orders well you know Aaron Rupard does such great work and he caught this clip it's a short one

but you tell me is Marcus Horrelius home or not So we're going to be investing in American quantum leadership like never before to stay ahead of the pack. We're way ahead right now. We'll keep it that way. The second order I'm signing directs federal agency to transition to what is called quantum cryptography. Do anybody know what that is? You're going to hear very soon, so you're going to find it.

Yeah, quantum cryptography. going to hear about it, are you saying? Do you know what that is? I don't know what that is. It's big. It's really big. Not once, but twice he called it cryptography. They didn't even know any, he didn't know what he was signed.

We're going to, quantum is going to be big. Like indoor plumbing. You know about indoor plumbing? You're going to hear about it a couple of weeks. Oh, and Cynthia with a note. By the way, I think it was popular information that reported this morning that the right wing is funding the following progressive sounding packs to sabotage Democrats. Lead left pack, real change pack, California blue pack, don't sign their petitions or support the candidates they push unless you want another Tulsi Gabbard-type loon. In fact, yeah, I think I've got something in the way of that in the stack.

that a right-wing group had confessed to monkeying around in Democratic Party politics. I don't see it now. Yeah, but that's okay. We've got a bunch more morality. Just trying to see what comes next. Mass-firing, Sylvie says, it's what I call the Vader mistake, but has been committed by dictators many times.

Hitler did it, Stalin did it, Pol Pot did it, and Trump has done it. fire anyone that disagrees and is competent. Move the dumb shits. Remember the bees silent. And reenact the Peter principle. Keep on keeping on, Donnie. Yeah, eventually, when it's nothing but a bunch of toadies and lickspittles,

you're not getting on, you're not, you're not getting decent information or important information. Oh, it's okay, says Randy Raiders. I once went through an entire interview calling telephony. Telephony. Well, you know what? Quantum cryptography. You know what goes well with quantum cryptography? Yeah, a calliopee.

Anderson Cooper. Oh, and by the way, over at Fox News TV Radio Rwanda, they're not taking part in the Vance dance anymore, I guess. after the humiliation over the weekend. Oh, goodness me. No, sir. Brian Kilmead. Well,

kill mead quickly. He's mad. Thanks a much, Trey. I do get the impression, guys, just talking with the president over the weekend, that the document, we've obsessed over the document, the MOU, for so much.

But I'm not sure how much weight it carries. in his eyes. I think the way he looks at it is that it was a starting point and he wants to go back and forth but many the things that the Iranians are Oh wait, what? Oh, now the MOU, this

a ginormous loss and a giveaway and basically a surrender now it doesn't really matter because, you know, Daddy doesn't think it's that important. God Emmanuel Macron got nitwit Nero to sign his

surrender in the palace of Versailles. You suppose the Germans who may be following this story looked at that and went, well, now, that looks familiar. Are doing and suggesting or infuriating the president. And he's saying, you know, if they want to do this, then I got to strike them. I got to strike them. So I'm not sure this document means anything. But then why the president's got to negotiate directly then?

because Steve Whitkoff loves this document, and J.D. Vance put this document together, and they're negotiating the thing and the president... Kill me, you dumbass. He can't negotiate directly. He can't stay on topic for more than a sentence at a time, at best. But you've got to keep the rubs happy, right? Since on the outside, the president's got to go on the...

inside because then then the negotiators are wasting their time because I mean I know one's happy with this document the president doesn't seem to be happy as you indicated so why are the people that created the document negotiating the deal because clearly I think J.D. Vance who's late to this party I don't understand the depth of the disagreement and the fact that he hopped down Friday and started ripping Israel and says they have no friends is ridiculous have you heard of the Abraham Accords I mean, do you understand that the Gulf states are tight with Israel than ever before? Do you ever hear of the country, India?

India has been extremely tight with Israel. So if you don't attack Israel, they don't attack you. This is a survival thing, and we should never have allowed the Hezbollah situation to be linked with this. They have no right to be in another country. And Iran has no right to finance Hezboa in that country. Yeah. So 60 days to negotiate, we'll see what happens if something happens in that 60-day period or thereafter. In the meantime, back here at home

Yeah, no, never mind what's going on back here at home. You're probably going to talk about the autopan or something, you dumbass. What are you going to strike? He said they've already taken out their Navy, their Air Force, their Army, their leadership, and yet somehow they've got nitwit Nero by his tiny little shriveled up nuts. And they're squeezing. And he's bleating. But the real answer to the question is, look who Brian Kilmead's talking about, J.D. Vance.

This thing was designed to get J.D. Vance the fuck out of the way. For who? Lil Marco wasn't in the room, now was he? During the humiliation. Who knows where L.M. Marco was? But he's not being tarred with that brush. I think L'Marco, well, Cassius has a lean and hungry look. Right? By the way, I should mention this is a conversation radio program, and I've been yammering on for two hours now.

If you've got something you'd like to say, feel free to join in. You're more than welcome to the stress line number 844-843-4676-8-44 The Horn. And we'll see what's on your mind and where that conversation leads us. file this next story under Republicans in disarray Mm-hmm John Cornyn may be getting ready to make nitwit Nero ache a little bit too

after he lost his runoff to Ken Paxton which has sent the maggots in Texas and across the fruited plane into paroxysms of a masculinity crisis. James Tilarico's a sissy vegan.

Oh, there he is with a plate of barbecue. Well, he ain't eating enough barbecue. He's a, he's a, he's a, he's a, he's a, he's a sissy man. This week, Cornyn did an interview with Semaphore. In the interview, he said, The president seems to revel in chaos, which is so different from any other leader I've ever seen. I don't know about you, but I like to minimize the chaos in my life.

He just seems to revel in it. He went on and added that there's no particular purpose or reason to sit down and talk to him. And he said, conversations with Trump aren't particularly useful because he can and will change his mind depending on the next person he talks to on the phone. And it's true as far as it goes, but, you know, make the next connection, Cornholio. His brain isn't working right and hasn't, perhaps, for his entire life. And so, among other things, he made him ache a little bit when he withheld his vote for the immigration spending bill until the, the regime paid $10 billion that it owed to take sass.

As to losing his runoff, he said the president picked Paxton and he's got $350 million. I think he can spend his money. And he finally said, well, I'm positioned to play more hardball with the other Republicans in the Senate. It's an unusual move for me. That's one example I think of what you can do when you have some cards to play. Hmm. I wonder what kind of cards. pity we can't impeach him and get him tried in the Senate now.

You might get votes from at least three Republicans. Tom Tillis. Maybe Joni Ernst. John Cornholio. Oh, wait, four. There's Cassidy. Five? Susan Collins? Because she's not doing real well these days.

She sat down for an interview. friendly with Fox News TV Radio Rwanda. And, well, one, it was pre-taped. It was not live, so that's never a good sign. And apparently she had a difficult time with it. Earlier today, I spoke with Senator Susan Collins. It's about an hour ago in her first national TV interview since he won the Democratic nomination. Watch.

So since this is the first time that we're hearing from you, since he has officially been your opponent. What do you think of him? What do you think of Grand Platner? Well, I have to say, that I never expected to have an opponent like Graham Platner. He is very different from me. He's the antithesis of the steady leadership that I provide in Washington, that has delivered real results for the state of Maine and for our nation. There have been numerous controversies. He often denies them only to be contradicted by others who say what he told them, the Nazi tattoo.

The Nazi tattoo, yeah? It almost looked like, I don't know, Susan Headroom. but Jamel Bowie, for instance, over on blue sky, said, Collins has been such a formidable electoral force that I don't want to say she's cooked, but if main voters are feeling at all anti-incumbent and anti-gerentocracy, then yeah, she's cooked. The Senate Majority Pax's Lauren French said, Susan Collins is unsteady and struggling throughout the,

this entire segment, her inability to sit through even a softball interview gives a lot of insight into why she hasn't held a town hall in 25 years. Well, and then there's also the late 90s. It feels like yesterday to me, but it's not. When she said going into the Senate, I will only serve two terms in the Senate, and then I will quit. Let's see, that would have been, yeah, 2000. Spoiler. She didn't quit.

Aaron Rupar, whom I mentioned a little bit ago, said, Susan Collins is on Fox News, but notably the interview was pre-taped. She seems to be struggling her way through it. I wonder how heavily it's been edited. Yeah. I don't think she's ever had an opponent like Graham Platner. Emilio, moderation extremist, Susan Collins. extreme moderate.

She has a deep philosophical conversation with herself every morning as to whether or not it's okay to to slice a banana on top of her shredded wheat. And she only buys the big biscuit kind. Not the little bitty ones. All right. And just to give you an idea of the number, I mentioned the washing. Post article detailing things that we were talking about six, seven, eight years ago, six, seven. Apparently the Washington Post got hold of like 25,000 memos.

And out of that, one podcaster, Jen Monroe, said, Hillary was right about her. Sir William Browder, however, who leads the Global Magnitsky Justice Campaign, said, it's kind of a relief that all her insane policy positions came from a Hindu-Colode. and not from Putin. Yeah, take the win. Well, at least we got it right a long time ago. Maybe sometimes we just have some good instincts, I don't know. Good times at the view over the reflecting pool.

Whoopi Goldberg having a hoot. Think of Memorial Reflected pool. Well, it's not going well. It's not going well. Apparently it's overrun. run without and the blue paint and the blue paint

lining the bottom is peeling off in clumps very much like his presidency I thought she was going to say like his makeup that vandals are to blame vandals not visigoths

sorry classical humor. He says they illegally placed chemicals in the water and left a 300-foot gash in the pool. Now, five people are said you have been arrested. He says a 10-year prison sentence will be strictly enforced. Well, if he's saying he's going to jail for 10 years, I'm going to let him know. I mean, it seems to me that had he not messed with pool, you know, it would still be a reflecting pool instead of a liquid jungle. Which is what it looks like.

But to accuse five people of doing this. But seemingly there's no proof, because I want to know who left the 300-foot gas in pool and nobody. It's tough to do. And not getting footage of somebody doing it. And nobody would see it. I mean, and you know, they have been trying to clean this up since before it actually turned green green. Well, it was when it was turning kind of pseudo green. But so what do you make of all of this?

Listen, I could sit here and hear you laugh about it the entire hour. But okay, let's discuss it. I mean, they look at this. I mean, they look like they are fishing in the replicable. They're trying to get, they're trying to get the algae out. This thing never had algae before. It looked just as green as the grass. It looks as green as the envy he has for Barack Obama.

I used to jog by this all the time when I lived in D.C. It's beautiful. One of the things I loved is you'd see ducks and geese swimming in it. Listen, it wasn't always the cleanest thing, but like wildlife could safely live in it. There was a photo going on on X of a duck that had died in it because now there's all these chemicals they're putting in it. They're putting in hydrogen peroxide. Listen, I kind of get the sense, that'll peel the paint. I get the sense from time to time that the president would rather be on like property brothers than like govern with everything that's going on.

Like deal with health care, deal with inflation. The war in Iran, this is not a good deal. And yet you worked for him, honey, and you cashed his checks. That's the thing. By the way, note coming in from Rye and Micah. Rye. This is good. Rye.

I feel sorry for people eating dinner thanks to that shriveled up nut statement. Micah. First time? Oh, Rye, my sweet summer child. It gets so much worse. We've barely even gotten off the rails and end of the gutter this evening. It's almost like, I mean, and that's saying a lot for a Moran Monday, because usually it's pretty easy and quick.

Oh, I mentioned the ducks the other night, and now the ducks are dead, they're at war with the ducks, they're at war with the turtles. Ah! Chicks and geese and ducks better scurry, because there's a... Because the reflecting pools filled with a toxic slurry.

Ugly little slurry with the scum on top. Roxanne, no sands. I can't help it. It's a show tune. Oh, God. Well, I'm sure we're not going to get any better than 60-250 with that little vocal styling. But, yeah, if we could come on down and knock out some portion of that 250, and then just get it down to a full unfunded month and go to work at it that way, sure would be helpful. No, I'm sorry.

Former Trump White House employee do go on. Focus seems to be like, what can I be changing? And I'm all for spruce things up ahead of America's 250. But this was clearly not the right way to do it. Oh, sweetie, have you not seen the South Law of the White House since they took down the redneck men brawling emporium? That ain't sprucy. But I do get the use of the word because, you know, blue sprucey. You get scientists. Did you get the Army Corps of engineers involved? Or did you go with like the lowest contract bid and have the likely out?

Did anyone actually bid for it? No, it was a no bid contract actually by a buddy of his. I think maybe that guy did hit, is his pool guy. Yeah, it's my pool guy. I think it's just like he looks like he's not wearing his own hair. Yeah. I think it looks like he's that might be DT. That might be him. Yeah. That might be you will know who in disguise. It's called the federal records confirm that it's the Atlantic industrial coatings is, I guess the people that painted the pool, that guy's company.

Now they're getting it wrong. Now, the pool guy is in Virginia. They're the people who brought in the latex flat wall paint. The guy that, the guy in the Al Capone suit. Oh, my God, it's that, it's that Bud Light Real Man. of genius at all over again. This here's to you, stud in a rug. Oh, now we have to do that.

Yep, sorry. My wood. No? Sorry, I'm getting ahead of myself. We search. Here, we'll get there in a second. When they brought up his rug, it just immediately brought this to mind, and there's never a bad time for it. Budweiser presents Real Men of Genius.

Real mess. Today we salute you, Mr. Really Bad Tupay Wairor. Mr. Really Bad Tupay Wairer. More than any neon sign or exploding scoreboard ever could. Your chrome dome cover says, hey guys, look at me. What could you be thinking? You think it looks natural, but it couldn't look phonier if it had a chin strap. Made of spaces.

age fibers, it can repel anything. Rain, wind, snow, and especially young women. I don't think so. So crack open a nice cold Budweiser, Mr. Stud in a rug, then crack open another for that thing on your head. Oh, God help me.

I've loved that from the first moment I heard it. But, well, they were having their own fun. But they did get it wrong. The Al Capone wannabe dude is, of course, from Ohio.

And he's the pump guy. The paint guy is in Virginia. I'm sure they'll, I'm sure they'll issue a correction in short order. Or maybe I'm wrong. I don't know. No. Oh, that guy's green water solution.

I'm sorry. But the federal records confirm the Atlantic industrial coatings. I guess they painted the bottom of the pool. They had zero history of prior federal government contracts, and they secured this high profile, no bid contract. You're telling me he

hired someone unqualified Oh my god, that must have stung Elisa. Yeah, because she worked for him. Part that got me was he was really upset, like the 10-year prison system. He's like, who would damage a monument? That is

sick and deranged people. He damaged the monument. When did he start caring about the monuments in Washington, D.C., because he didn't mind when the Capitol was stormed, and he was willing to pardon those people. So it just feels a little hypocritical for me. This Washington, D.C. beautification project of his is the most laughable thing. We got a hole where the East Wing used to be.

That's right. We got the Goldbe Desert where the ellipse used to be, where he held the UFC thing. We've got a tarp around the John, the Kennedy Center. We've got, you know, this has turned into... Now, now, Anna, that's an emotional support tarp. To the big green swamp, the reflecting pool. But, you know, and it's just also the amount of money without going through the process that are being spent. It's billions of dollars between the ballroom and the arch the Trump and the pool.

and the this and that, and something that we haven't talked about enough in this country that I want to talk about, because one of the things I was thinking about today is while this is happening, while he is misspending money, the way he is misspending it, there is no water in parts of Puerto Rico. That's right. And there hasn't been water there for weeks because there is an aging aqueduct. There's an aging water system and an aging electric grid that this president refuses to invest in and pay attention to. And so there are so many different things happening in America, because let us remember Puerto Rico is in the United States. We are letting Americans go with a shortage of water for weeks.

Yeah, he spends billions of dollars on his vanity projects. And I'm glad you brought that up because in some places in Puerto Rico, it's been months. It's been months. And that's despicable in this United States. I will also say that this administration has proposed significant reductions to the National Park Service funding. So they've not only cut funding for or proposed cut funding, what they've also done is they've removed or revised exhibits. Whoopi and I discuss this with Jady Vans at dozens of park sites dealing with slavery.

You and I discussed it. He said he didn't know anything about it. But we brought it up because we know it's true. So the administration has removed or revised exhibits at dozens of park sites dealing in particular with slavery, civil rights, indigenous history, and climate change. And a federal judge thankfully recently ordered many of them to be restored. And taking down exhibits at national parks, he is making a green smoke. Are we going to have to pay for this twice?

And the reason I said it is they painted it blue because he wanted it to look different. But there was a reason it wasn't painted blue because the color of the blue attracts the heat, which makes this ongoing algae problem actually worse. And then they went to correct it with hydrogen peroxide, which peeled the paint that they just painted. And apparently killed the dust. So if you're going to mess up, the project, you just charge taxpayers for? Do we pay twice?

Well, no, this is what I'm asked. I want, I want somebody to sue. Because if a contractor did this at your house, yeah. Yeah. This is what you would do. I think the country needs to say, we're suing you, suing you for doing this without our permission.

And we're suing the people who did it, because clearly they didn't know what they were doing. Clearly. But, you know, it's just a suggestion. Because, you know, a lot of money is going away, you know, and I hate to think this. But I think that there's, it's very clear to me. He's angry of Puerto Rico as well. He's angry at Puerto Rico.

He's angry at America. I mean, he is, but, and not to take anything away from Puerto Rico. but within a five-hour drive of Washington, D.C., there are people who do not have clean water to drink and haven't, and won't, if you're still guessing, I'm talking about West Virginia, which is as maggot estate as there is.

But West Virginians voted for him, gave him his second term. And now, well, you know, he's not a state as there is. even going to leave the money on the dresser. He's just going to slip out the window leaving all the hillbilly, sticky, broken, confused. I'm sorry, I just had to get that off my chest. That's why he's put us through all of this ridiculousness. Because if you love, if you wanted to trade them in for freelance or something. Yes. So for me, if you really cared about the country, you could not, you could not continue to do what you're doing. So all I say is, you know, We all know what we have to do.

Whatever side you vote on, because there are mindful Republicans, there are mindful Democrats. We have to get the country back on. Name me a mindful Republican in the Congress, Whoopie, whose name isn't Thomas Massey. And even he, mindful Republican, I suppose, Even he has his crazy side. Where are the minds? Rand Paul, libertarian ophthalmologist in that thing on his head? Susan Collins?

Where? Where? Tom Tillis, Cassidy, and John Cornholio and Joni Ernst? Because they don't have to bow and scrape before him anymore, and now they can be mindful. but they did their harm on the front end. They did their damage. Cassidy, Cassidy, you should have your goddamn medical license yanked.

You're an MD, you son of a bitch. And you voted to confirm a guy who snorted coke off of toilet seats. You voted to confirm a guy who took a chainsaw to the head of a whale. You voted to confirm a guy to run. the health care system of the entire United States who's literally a snake handler. Jesus, crime, and he. I mean,

I'm sorry. The things like mindful Republicans kind of crawl all over me, like, well, never mind. I mean, it's right up there with, well, we, we need a viable Republican Party. Oh, okay. And we also need

bedbugs, I guess. Mosquitoes? Well, you know, the bats eat the mosquitoes. Well, maybe they could have evolved to eat something else. We could do without the mosquitoes. Mindful Republicans. Jumbo shrimp. Contradictions in terms. Damn.

Sorry. Track. We, the voters. The voters. Don't let them tell you, because there's been Jerry, in your area. Don't let them tell you that your vote doesn't count. Go vote.

The days of being a one-issue voter are over. We got to vote for each other here. Well, I'm game for that. I do it, but well, I don't know how many other people are out there voting for each other.

And you know, it's one thing to clap and cheer in a studio for Whoopie and ladies, it's another thing to get off your ass and go vote. Now what? They're in New York. So those voters, those people may vote. They may go vote. I don't know. But we'll be, maybe, maybe, maybe go to places like Mississippi and Texas. Go campaign for James Calerico. I'm sure you, I'm sure you can't. The suits wouldn't let you. and Brendan Carr, that little troll over at the FCC,

might very well file an FCC complaint against your parent corporation, and that makes the suits have a sad. I mean, they got in trouble for having James Tolariko on there in the first place. But, I mean, her thesis is correct. If people turned out and voted in such overwhelming numbers as to be unfraudable, unstealable, it would go a long way. You know, honestly, the mindful Republicans,

whomever they may be, need to learn to just, you know, just forget the crap, the lies you've been told on Fox News TV Radio Rwanda. I mean, I mentioned the Don Lemon, Ashley St. Clair interview. At one point, and I give her props for what appears to be candor.

Don Lemon asked her about Fox, and she said, it's entertainment. It's not news. I went on Fox all the time. What business did I have going on Fox to talk about Russia and Ukraine? What do I know about Russia and Ukraine? And, you know, she spilled a little tea with Fox, too, because when you go on Fox, you are told what to say on what topics.

and Don Lemon agreed, and I've had experience with this. I've never, in the TV appearances, the few of them that I had, nobody ever told me what to say, and nobody ever gave me the questions in advance. The only thing that was said is, you know, this is the topic. And at that point, I was free to go off. And I did. But, you know, she made it clear. It's a, Fox is a clown show.

Silly View host, says Micah. everyone knows Puerto Rico isn't America. Unfortunately, the number of maggots who would go, yep. Mindful Republicans, Micah, continues to paraphrase Dave Mustaine, two words combined that can't make sense. Then why the fuck does it have news in the fucking title? Because consumer fraud? Because you can brand anything you want with anything you want?

Walk through the grocery store. See how many times you see new and important. see how many times that turns out to be true it's entirely subjective and then there's of course that much mentioned i've never actually seen all the way onto the ground with it but uh allegedly a lawsuit in canada wherein fox pled we are not a news outlet and therefore not liable we are an entertainment channel So it's, you know, it's just branding. I mean, look at, well, look at pet food. With more beefy taste! You know, Fox News TV Radio Rwanda is the, uh... It's the garbage kennel ration of dog food.

More flavor! How can you tell? And what kind of flavor? Randy Radar says It may be just as important to give to independent media as it is to vote The way things are going, you need a passport to vote Or your birth certificate if they pass the SAVE Act He's tightening the screws every day on the maggots

And they're not going to get the 60 votes And so he's going to get rid of the filibuster And then you want to have and then we'll keep the Republican majority And I'll see that and you won't have to worry about the Democrats using the filibuster because the minute they get hold of the Senate, they're going to get rid of the filibuster. No, they won't.

I mean, that's a demonstrable falsehood. We've gotten hold of the Senate, and yes, people like me, were out here howling from the rooftops. Now is the time to get rid of the filibuster, especially because Kirsten, Kirtsey, and Sinema, and Joe to the mansion born, were saying some incredibly stupid things about the filibuster, like,

well, if you get rid of the filibuster, you may as well not have any Senate anymore, because the Senate will be dead. What a dumbass he wasn't is. Well, we know who Kirsten Cinema turned out to be, don't we? A bit of a follow-on, though, to, uh, what we were talking about in the last week or so about the Iranians hiring

psychologists and psychiatrists to help them deal with nitwit Niro Yeah, okay, Rye The Senate will be dead Don't threaten me with a good time I know But right now the Senate is

Saving our bacon Because if it weren't for the 60-vote threshold The SAVE Act would be law they have 50 co-sponsors 50 sponsors and co-sponsors in the Senate they have 50

and that would be enough to bring in the JD egg and break the tie and then bye-bye voting rights for everybody who doesn't have a matching birth certificate

which is what 95% of the married women in this country 99% of the trans women in this country Oh, and Jimmy Dick Bowman Yeah But no, to follow up on the

The business of Iran Well, figuring Trump out down to his last brain cell Earlier today on MS now Nicole Wallace's Deadline White House Tom Nichols showed up national security scholar taught at the army war college maybe the naval academy i'm not sure what uh but they talked about the fact that lo and behold yes apparently the uh iranians got uh got value for their currency when they hired the shrinks

into existence his tire garble in france however is something different it's suggests that Trump more than ever is unable to fathom what is happening in the world around him and has been reduced to turning all of his previous statements upside down. A regime that was once the epitome of evil is now a reasonable partner. Nuclear material that once represented an existential threat to America might now sit in Iran forever. Syria and Iran and Israel and Lebanon will now do things that they would never do just because he wants them to.

this is something that comes through in some of the reporting and regime change, the new book by Maggie Haberman and Jonathan Swan, where he's got, and I wondered this around the time of the State of the Union when he kept talking about how hot the country was, and his economic numbers have been in a precipitous slide since Independence Day, the big tariff unveiled. Before the war in Iran, his numbers were cratering on the economy, and thus overall because of the tariff regime.

And I wondered, I said, I wonder what kind of information he's getting. Regime change reports out that he's got this person who sits there and finds like very obscure little corners of posts from people that aren't even right-wing journalists, which used to be sort of his happy place. And they are creating this artificial reality for him. So when you hear him say, our country's so hot, I always, I used to think he was lying. Now I think he's deluded. And your piece pulls this onto the world stage. Talk about the delusions of Donald Trump as sort of a threat to global stability. Delusion is the word I was going to use when you were asking about this, because he is self-deluded.

I have said many times on this show that I think his cognitive abilities are decaying rapidly. but he has people around him who have spoken the truth to him, at least before this war was launched, and he doesn't want to hear it. I mean, now we're just seeing a more extreme version of the problem that Donald Trump has always been uneducable and unbriefable. He doesn't listen. He's a narcissist. You can't tell a narcissist that they're wrong about something when they've decided that they're right. And, you know, I really appreciate Mark shouting out the war colleges here because our enemies have figured out something that we used to teach all the time, which is the relationship between the government, the army, and the people.

Donald Trump is obsessed with the military. He thinks as long as the military is strong, it can do anything, can work miracles. But war is a cooperative effort and a joint or a unified effort between the people, the civilians, their unification. military, the government that leads them, and our enemies have figured something out, that we rely too much on military excellence, which is a great thing to have. But if you don't have the people behind you, if you don't have a unified government that knows what it wants to do, then in the end, you've blown up a lot of stuff, but they're striking back at things that we care about. And, you know, frankly, the Iranians broke the code on this, that two months of high gas prices, you know, was going to hurt us more than depleting our stocks.

I mean, they knew something about us that Donald Trump, this goes back to your question about delusions, that Donald Trump simply refuses to accept. He thinks if he goes out and says, nuclear weapon, I've solved everything, the world is safer, I'm fantastic, that millions of Americans will go along with that. The Iranians have figured out that millions of Americans will not go along with that, And now we're in the situation where he feels like he has to end this war and get out of it at any cost. And unfortunately, it seems like that's exactly what he's doing is being willing to pay almost any cost just to get out of this mess now. Well, what's interesting about the Iranians is that they would not have as much power if Donald Trump hadn't surrounded himself with such feckless people.

You know, their operation. And that's a point worth making. because as you watch what Tom Nichols describes as his diminishing cognitive capacities, it's hard not to think about basically this time in the second term of Ronnie Reagan when he was more and more and more gone. but he had, albeit criminals in many instances, he had competent criminals around him who could make it look like, you know, the trains were running on time.

And that everything was okay, and the great communicator was still the great communicator, and nothing stuck to him, and he never took his suit coat off in the Oval Office, and all of that, it was such a long time ago. but again it feels like yesterday what they're pointing out here is that no he doesn't have that instead you know

he's got he's got renfield with a mouth full of flies and mayonnaise he's got a frat boy drunk in the Pentagon who if he'd had any kind of competent military advice

would have stopped this bullshit because I was no fan, but people like Mark Millie and the other Genuels, you know, Mad Dog Madsen. No, Madsen? Anyway, you know who I'm talking about. They looked at him square in the eye and said, this is a terrible idea, and you just can't do it, and they're all gone. McMasters and there's no one in this Oval Office now

except for todies and lick spittles and the toadies are dying in a reflecting pool from hydrogen peroxide exposure Mattis Mattis thank you Michael oh thank you Rye Mad Dog Mattis he hated that nickname by the way but the point is well taken

but the one thing that nobody ever mentions is and you know Nichols pointed toward it by saying he's a narcissistic, he's a narcissist I mean that's a formal psychological psychiatric diagnosis but more and more I think that he

has been I think that he was born with intellectual and cognitive deficits and his fascination with the military comes from his own cowardice.

He never had the nerve to see how he would perform if he ever had to, as the Red Badge of Courage puts it, see the elephant. And I think that's significant. ...against Pete Hegsseth, these Lego videos where

they go after things that are publicly known. I mean, they exploit what is in the public record about the weaknesses of all the people around Donald Trump. And what makes it so fascinating to me is that they've obviously determined that J.D. Vance is disposable. So they've sent J.D. Vance into the breach. And I wonder, Claire, what you think comes back. Well, he's in trouble. J.D. is in trouble.

First of all, what's sad to me is he had a press conference today where he was bragging about the international atomic. Yeah, Claire McCask. He did, and, I mean, it was quite a thing, the so-called press conference that he did. Embarrassing even. I may have saved that. I guess not. But, yeah, you know, try to be butch with Israel and tell them that, you know, they didn't have any friends without us. Nobody's, nobody takes him seriously.

But anyway, anyway. He does, you know, the JD Egg, blathering. And see, it's interesting because you had Brian Kilmead there savaging J.D. Vance. But there he was on Fox and Thien's weekend, Saturday morning, talking about what a great deal he had achieved. Jesus. Here, let's get the whole thing. All better now.

So that's the first part of the negotiation. My understanding, talking to Jared and Steve this morning, as things are going well. But of course, we're going to verify all of this. And that's the thing that a lot of the criticisms of the deal have really underappreciated is that the United States has all the cards. The straits are now open. The Iranian military is now destroyed. The Iranians have committed to, of course, destroying that stockpile of enriched material. But we have a lot of economic pressure applied to the Iranians that we would be willing to. relieve if they do what we need them to do. If they don't do that, of course, there's no skin off our back. They're still in a much weakened position. So that's the first part of the... And shortly thereafter, Iran announced, oh, no, the straits are closed again because the United States can't control

the behavior of the genocidal maniacs in Israel. And they keep using this card. metaphor. Hemant Meta, who runs the friendly atheist, said, we said, Uno, Iran said draw four, and Bill the Bloody Crystal, who was all in on Iraq, for instance, said he's not a particularly good liar, but he certainly is a shameless one.

John Kerry has spoken at length about how hard it was to achieve the JCPOA. And we actually had negotiating partners in that. Our European allies were along. This, we're on our own. And all we've got is a couple of

you know, a couple of sheiks from the Gulf states. The Swiss, of course, are more than happy to provide the hospitality. We have all the cars. Lee in New York says, but we're playing Uno, exactly. You know, I guess,

I guess when it comes right down to it, we should be somewhat grateful for their monumental incompetence. Even as incompetent as they are, we've got scores dead, military, civilians, people tortured to death in concentration camps, starving people, hunger strikes, a VA nurse and a mom in Minneapolis dead. death follows in Trump's wake. Bad people feel empowered by him. Just ask George Floyd. So that's the program, everybody. Oh, wait, let's end on a funny. Can we?

Yeah, let's do. Some of these are just too good. Let's start with Nancy Hatchet Face Mace. Good God, she got dragged over this one. She went over on X and posted a big, splashy excrement, claiming that the American people, the taxpayer, is paying for experiments on trans mice. Mm-hmm. Turning Mickey and Domeny and vice versa.

Animals should not be used for radical transgender experiments. This is not science. This is ideological cruelty. paid for by the American taxpayers. And there was some AI image of a mouse touching a human hand. No trans mice. I've

introduced the Transmice Act. No federal funds may be used to conduct support or fund research aimed at altering an animal's biological sex. No hormones, no surgeries, no taxpayer dollars spent

mutilating animals in the name of transgender ideology. This legislation brings accountability, ends taxpayer-funded cruelty, and ensures science serves the public, not ideology. And even over on a shithole platform like what used to be Twitter, she got community noted into the lowest levels of hell. Transmice refers to transgenic mice, not transgender mice. Transgenic mice are defined as mice that have incorporated foreign DNA into their genome, allowing for the study of gene function and disease mechanisms, particularly in cancer research.

And Nancy Hatchet-Face Mays immediately said, well, I knew that. This ain't about that. This is about federally funded transgender-related experiments on animals. This post is not about transgender-related experiments on animals. The bill is called the Transgender Research on Animals Now Stops and Money for Ideological Cruelty Eliminated Act, also known as the Transmice Act. Community note addresses transgenic mice, which is a completely different topic. Yeah, sure, Nancy.

Oh, bigotry makes you stupid. Big stupid. Oh, and since we talked about the Israelis murdering the turtle lady earlier, might as well do this one too the oldest churches in christianity are the various orthodoxies of what was the classical

Greek and Syrian and Armenian and Iraqi world we in dim leaders war against the people of innocent people of Iraq he pretty much

bombed the oldest Christian community out of existence. Well, now Israel has decided fuck the Greek Patriarchate in Jerusalem. What they did, and of course Christians are not safe in Jerusalem now because they're prone to being attacked by colonialist settler scum who attack women, men, Christians in general. on June 17th the Patriarchate

noted that Israel had seized land adjacent to the monastery of St. Anufrius in the Palestinian neighborhood of Silwan, Jerusalem. The Patriarchate said it was an unlawful and illegitimate seizure. Its representative at the site was forcibly removed

and his equipment confiscated by Israeli officials. Trees were uprooted and the property was enclosed with fencing and gates. It is an unlawful and illegitimate seizure of established church property in the heart of Jerusalem. Hmm. Last I checked, there are even

rules handed down to the children of Israel by their God, telling them not to uproot trees. The monastery of St. Anufrius was built in 1874 over the ruins of a former church that was said to be on a

Potter's field. The Patriarchate also noted that there had been a troubling publication on the day the land was stolen, claiming it was state land of archaeological importance. So, I guess the evil jellicles won't be upset about that, but here we are. Disgusting. And, all right, let's do, Let's end on a funny. We've talked a lot here about the movement for men's masculinity of masculine manly manliness. I'd really kind of prefer this be a parody bit, but it's not the onion. And I read the story and I couldn't. You know, usually with parody, you'll see a tell here and there.

I don't see it. This is apparently real. And there's quite a bit of detail here. Oh, those poor dainty men. Poor delicate little flowers. Well, they found a new realm of gender-affirming care the cis guys have. Uh-huh. The story comes out of Zambia.

It's got a dot ZA extension. The story comes out of South Africa. Don't worry, I'm sure testicle toasting Tuckio Rose Carlson will be getting it done any day now. And so a little Benny drywife Shapiro and God, I can't imagine Joe Rogaine not going in for this or lobster daddy Jordan Peterson or any of the rest of those goons. Here we are. Men, men, are using various substances to inflate their scrotums. Sometimes, to a size doctors equate, to two large cantalopes. The article notes, this comes hot on the heels of the ski jumper penis doping scandal, where some ski jumpers were injecting hyluronic acid into their members.

According to reports, the guilty sportsman said it was done to increase size, creating a larger or more aerodynamic surface area and allowing for better flight distance when they jump. The article notes that scrotum inflation is done for different reasons altogether. Poor wry. And she thought mentioning Niro shriveled up little nuts was bad.

Dinner is trashed in the Pacific Daylight Time Zone. doctor and psychologist Dr. Jonathan Riedlinghese said the behavior appears to be linked to a small and largely non-mainstream subculture. Oh, give it time! There appears to be a kind of sexual subculture of people. It appears that they derive some sort of sexual pleasure from them or an audience who derives pleasure from it. The doctor consulted said, I'm not quite sure what they're doing. usually it involves injecting substances such as saline and silicone into the scrotum to increase its size often dramatically in ways that fall well outside regulated medical procedure

according to men are us saline injections involve injecting sterile 0.9% saltwater solution into the scrotum to make it temporarily larger with the scrotum expanding like a water balloon and in some cases reaching the size of a grapefruit before the body gradually absorbs the fluid again. It typically lasts for a day or two, but the visual impact is immediate. Dr. Riddlinghouse said both saline and medical-grade silicone can come with complications. The person is at risk for developing an infection, injection-site reaction, body reactions, even if it was completely sterile. It would still not be 100% safe. Well, honestly, I can't wait until the masculinity crowd gets a hold of this.

You can almost see Pink Shrick now. Hey, look you here. Now I really do have to carry him around in a wheelbar. Don't! Yeah, all the way back to the Transmice Act, where I said, can we have a ban stupid legislation Bill's Name Act? I'm all for it. but I wonder if Nancy Hatchet-face Mace

will introduce a grapefruit-sized scrotum prevention act I'm so proud of you, Matt. I knew you couldn't leave this one alone. A grapefruit? I have trouble enough walking around with my arthritic hip. I need a separate crutch.

Oh, no. A crotch, crutch! A crutch for crotches. yet we've covered so much ground and some of it was so unfun but how do you I mean how do you leave that alone on more and Monday you know just how I don't think you can so thanks everybody thanks to each and every one of you who share your precious

Thank you so much. It really matters. We are at a deficit to the end of the month of $6,250. We'd have to raise $250 just to keep it from being a completely unfunded month,

or more than a month, I should say. But thanks. And thanks to our a la carte contributors. Thanks to our Patreon, PayPal, Venmo, cash app contributors, and subscribers. Thanks to those of you who jump in through the year. U.S. Postal Service. Thank you, Scott. I went to the post office

Matt and San Francisco is sending me the link to ACDC's Big Balls. Somehow I think Naina's 9-N-N-Sish Luftballons would probably be appropriate as well. Thanks, Matt.

Please stay safe. There's a lot to worry about out there. Did you get your flu shot? I hope you did. Because it looks like we got a super spreader event going on down and takes us at an Air Force base. And, of course, if anyone comes toward you with a needle full of saline saying,

Hey, you want big balls? avoid him like the plague because he is and always always Wayne and Gina it's all for you talk to you a little bit Victoria later
