The first six months of the Trump administration have not been kind to the experts and the degree-holding classes.Almost daily during the tariff hysterias of March, we were told by university economists and most of the PhDs employed in investment and finance that the U.S. was headed toward a downward, if not recessionary, spiral.[snip] Instead, recent data show increases in tariff revenue. Personal real income and savings were up. Job creation exceeded prognoses. There was no surge in inflation. The supposedly "crashed" stock market reached historic highs.

Federal Housing Finance Administration (FHFA) Director Bill Pulte is calling on Congress to launch an immediate investigation into Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell after he was accused of lying to the Senate Banking Committee last week. Powell, aside from being hit with calls for his resignation during a hearing last Wednesday, raised eyebrows by insisting that a bloated $2.5 billion renovation of the central bank’s Washington headquarters would not include outrageous new amenities.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Attorney General Pam Bondi’s recent comments about evidence the Justice Department is reviewing from its Jeffrey Epstein sex trafficking investigation has fueled anticipation about the expected release of more files related to the wealthy financier. But weeks after Bondi’s claim about “tens of thousands” of Epstein videos in the government’s possession, it remains unclear what she was referring to. Here’s a look at some of the takeaways from an Associated Press report about the Epstein case and Bondi’s recent remarks:

The Senate has done it—barely. After a marathon vote-a-rama session that stretched into the early morning hours, Republicans squeaked through their version of Trump's One Big Beautiful Bill by the thinnest possible margin: 51-50, with Vice President JD Vance casting the deciding vote.[snip] here's what Washington doesn't want you to understand: this razor-thin victory is where the real fight begins.[snip] House conservatives have already said that they are not happy with the Senate version and they will be raising some serious objections.

Between the economy booming, illegal aliens being punted back over the border, and Iran getting neutered like some kid named Kaden whose wine woman Munchausen mommy needs attention, as well as the president not being a senile eggplant, the future looks good for the Republicans in 2028.[snip] But there is one guy who worries me. There’s one guy who’s doing things differently, who seems to be aiming for the empty “I’m not crazy and I don’t hate you” lane to the nomination.

Bobby Sherman, Dead at 81

I used to work in and around Hollywood, so I know how the game is played and how stars are "made." The majority of supposed "discoveries" are acts that have been trotted out and poll-tested for years, even decades. Teen heartthrob, singer, and actor Bobby Sherman is among the last of true Hollywood discoveries. Sherman was born and raised in the San Fernando Valley of Los Angeles in the 1960s.[snip] His face was printed on lunchboxes, cereal boxes and posters that hung on the bedroom walls of his adoring fans. He landed at No. 8 in TV Guide’s list of “TV’s 25 Greatest Teen Idols.”

I’ve been a Kansas City Chiefs fan since long before the confetti ever fell in 2019. [snip] So when Randi Mahomes, Patrick’s mom and President Trump supporter, spoke out this week on "MOMetize Your Passion" about the need to protect girls’ and women’s sports from unfair competition, I listened. Not just because she raised a football phenom, but because she said what millions of Americans are thinking: This isn’t about hate—it’s about fairness.[snip] We’re living in a time where saying something that basic—obvious, even—is somehow controversial.
A shock poll suggests that the Marxist-Muslim
Zohran Mamdani will be New York’s next mayor

When people think of American commerce, they think of New York. And when people think of American Jewish culture, they also think of New York, which has the largest Jewish community of any city in the world outside of Israel. But if the polls are correct, New York may soon have a mayor who is an avowed Marxist and an antisemite. (And yes, I equate anti-Zionism directly with antisemitism.)Tomorrow is voting day in the New York Democrat party mayoral primary. This matters because the greatest likelihood is that whoever wins the Democrat primary will be New York City’s next mayor. The chances of a Republican winning, after all, are slim.

Sen. Markwayne Mullin (R-OK) revealed on Monday that U.S. intelligence contradicts claims that Iran moved nuclear materials before President Trump’s weekend airstrikes, which the senator believes “severely damaged, if not completely destroyed” Iran’s nuclear weapons capabilities. Satellite imagery taken prior to the attack, circulating across social media over the weekend, revealed trucks surrounding Fordo allegedly poised to haul away all nuclear material, which the senator rejects.
Senate Parliamentarian Is Doing the Dems'
Bidding in Striking Major Portions of
'One Big Beautiful Bill'

Posted by JoElla Bee 6/23/2025 6:00:38 PM Post Reply
Senate Parliamentarian Elizabeth MacDonough, a Harry Reid appointee with a selective interpretation of how the Byrd Rule can be applied to reconciliation bills, has been doing the bidding of the Democrats in ruling that major provisions of President Trump's "One Big, Beautiful Bill" are subject to the Byrd Rule and therefore are ineligible to be part of a reconciliation bill. That means that, according to MacDonough, those provisions have to go through the normal Senate process and need 60 votes for passage instead of a simple majority.

A senior Army officer has been dismissed from his position inside the Joint Chiefs of Staff office tasked with developing policy and strategy for the Middle East over inflammatory comments he made about Israel and its relationship with the U.S. on social media. Colonel Nathan McCormack, an Army infantry officer who served as a branch chief of the office focusing on Egypt, Syria, Jordan, Lebanon, and Israel in the Joint Staff's Strategy, Plans and Policy Directorate (J5), was removed from a job he's held since June 2024, after media pointed out he'd referred to Israel as a "death cult" and railed against “Netanyahu and his Judeo-supremacist cronies.”

As President Donald Trump weighs what to do next with Iran's nuclear program, spending Tuesday morning in the White House Situation Room, Vice President JD Vance is speaking out about his view "from the inside. Here is his statement about the situation in full, which was posted on X: “Look, I'm seeing this from the inside, and am admittedly biased towards our president (and my friend), but there's a lot of crazy stuff on social media, so I wanted to address some things directly on the Iran issue: First, POTUS has been amazingly consistent, over 10 years, that Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon.
