From the U.K. Daily Mail,
More than 14 million people could die as a result of Donald Trump’s foreign aid cuts, a new study has found.
The US President’s administration announced it had slashed 83 per cent of programmes run by the US Agency for International Development (USAID) shortly after he returned to the White House for a second term.
And now research published in the leading medical journal, Lancet, has predicted that 14 million people – 4.5 million of whom are children under the age of five – could die by 2030 as a result.
There are something like 195 independent nations on the planet, and not a single one, other than America,

New Yorkers faced the choice of a miscreant former governor and a radical Democrat socialist for the position of mayor in the Democrat primary. Prior to Zohran Mamdani’s election in the primary, his absurd and speculative plans to provide all kinds of freebies to the citizenry were the talk of the town:
Mamdani’s platform focused on a number of issues that have animated socialists in the Democratic Party, including raising the minimum wage, hiking taxes on corporations and wealthy Americans, cracking down on delivery apps, as well as investing in affordable housing and creating city-owned grocery stores.
His campaign proposes a new minimum wage law that would raise the wage floor for

Pity poor Jaguar. The British-based luxury and performance carmaker has had a rough go of it this century, but nothing could prepare anyone for the most bone-headed move in corporate history — and I don't mean Jaguar's woke "Reimagine" ad from late last year.
Let me bring you up to speed.
As recently as 2018, Jaguar sold 180,833 cars annually. Last year, they sold fewer than 33,000. In April — the most current sales figures available — Jag sold just 49 cars in the massive UK/Europe market. U.S. sales figures aren't available yet, but they aren't any better.
Jaguar went from selling 1,961 cars a month to 49 in just six years.

The University of Pennsylvania has agreed to ban transgender women from participating in its women's sports programs, resolving a federal civil rights investigation centered on swimmer Lia Thomas. The U.S. Department of Education announced the agreement Tuesday, saying the university violated Title IX by allowing Thomas to compete in women's events.
The case marks a significant moment in the Trump administration's broader push to restrict transgender athletes from competing in girls' and women's sports. As part of the resolution, Penn will reinstate Division I swimming records and titles to female athletes displaced by Thomas's victories and issue personalized apology letters to each of them.

I appreciate even more now what Trump meant when he said that Elon is wearing thin. After a brief truce, the pluto-crat who wants to go to Mars is at it again. He is threatening to primary members of Congress who vote for the BBB.
He’s also teasing a new America Party as an alternative to the Democrat-Republican uniparty. Some may consider that a good idea — in theory. In practice, under the influence of mercurial Musk, it could create more problems than it solves, for, while Trump is a stable genius, Musk is an unstable one.
Unlike the forgiving, magnanimous, and sagacious Trump (who’ll meet with

On July 4th, the movie “Sinners” will become the first show to be interpreted into “Black American Sign Language (BASL),” per a press release from Warner Bros.
The entertainment company described it as “a major step forward in accessibility, representation, and visibility in streaming.”
“BASL is a distinct dialect of American Sign Language (ASL) with its own dynamic history and unique grammar, signing space, rhythm, facial expressions, and cultural nuances,” the release stated. “For the first time, the Black Deaf community will have streaming access to a more

The Democrats are now implacably self-destructive. They resemble nothing so much as a slowly capsizing ship, but show by their frenzied skullduggery that America is not in decline -- the opposition is rotten and hopeless but it still fights savagely. I hope readers will pardon a recitation of the party's gradual floundering. They pushed the nation into Vietnam, mismanaged the war, and deserted their own president (Lyndon Johnson), and when President Nixon saved their war, they crucified him on what can now be seen as the utterly absurd Watergate nonsense.

SAN DIEGO — Gas prices in California are expected to increase starting July 1 as two state policies go into effect. A 1.6-cent per gallon excise tax increase and stricter low-carbon fuel standards will impact fuel costs across the state. The gas tax will rise from 59 cents to about 61 cents per gallon to keep pace with inflation. Additionally, new low-carbon fuel standards will be implemented, though the exact impact on prices remains uncertain. (Snip) While the precise increase is unknown, estimates range from under 10 cents to 65 cents or more per gallon. Governor Gavin Newsom's office has released

It was a surprising statement from Attorney General Pam Bondi as the Trump administration promises to release more files from its sex trafficking investigation of Jeffrey Epstein: The FBI, she said, was reviewing “tens of thousands of videos” of the wealthy financier “with children or child porn.”
The comment, made to reporters at the White House days after a similar remark to a stranger with a hidden camera, raised the stakes for President Donald Trump’s administration to prove it has in its possession previously unseen compelling evidence.

It has been amusing to watch Democrats struggle to cope with the success of 33-year-old socialist Zohran Mamdani’s decisive win in the New York mayoral primaries. Why all the handwringing? Mamdani is now the mainstream of the once great Democratic Party.
The only difference is that Mamdani isn’t afraid to say what other Democratic politicians try to hide.
Think about what Mamdani has proposed or supported:
• A yearlong freeze on rent
• A $30 minimum wage
• Free bus service
• City-owned grocery stores
• Defunding the police
• Calling Israel’s war in Gaza a genocide.
“Mainstream” Democrats support every one of these positions

Connecticut Sen. Chris Murphy said the quiet part out loud about his Democratic Party when he admitted that Democratic Socialist Zohran Mamdani's communist views are the future of his party.
CNN's Kasie Hunt asked Murphy about last week's shocking upset in the Democratic New York mayoral primary when the self-described socialist who wants government-owned grocery stores, rent freezes, and refuses to condemn the antisemitic phrase "Globalize the intifada!" emerged as the victor over disgraced former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo. Hunt asked Murphy if Mamdani "is the future of the Democratic Party." (X) The senator replied that, "I think his message, his economic message, is the future of the [Democratic] Party."

After weeks of negotiations, the Senate has passed the One Big Beautiful Bill Act—a ten-year fiscal package which would serve as the vehicle for fulfilling President Donald Trump’s campaign promises on tax cuts and border security. Despite intra-party debates on overall deficit levels, healthcare reform and how to undo President Joe Biden’s environmental policies, Republicans were ultimately able to find a consensus under the leadership of newly-minted Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D. The bill, which has passed by a margin of 51-50 in the Senate with Vice President JD Vance casting the tie-breaking vote, will now go to the House of Representatives,
