Just as his party is overrun by Communist revolutionaries, former President Barack Obama has decided to take center stage in a frenetic public relations campaign, ostensibly to promote his so-called library. He’s here, there and everywhere, silkily opining about everything under the sun, except the only thing that matters: the disintegration of his party. Like Nero playing the fiddle while Rome burned, Obama is curiously detached from the disaster he helped create. Democrats desperately need a leader to rally around, but all they have is Obama. He is the only former Democratic president who is still sharp, charismatic and dynamic enough to take up the mantle. Former President Bill Clinton,

This is the age of the YOLO candidate. Are you a terrible person with a clear record of awfulness? You would be perfect for the U.S. Senate! Democrats have found just that sort of guy in Maine; Republicans have found one in Texas. Both would be perfect additions to the large and growing cast of bloviators, morons, and preening hacks that constitute what was once known as the world’s most deliberative body. Both sides justify these candidates along similar lines: “[Institution or policy] has failed [interest or faction that sees its demands as indistinguishable from the national interest]. Our only response is to elect [person of bad character

So my site access has been restored but my WiFi access continues to be spotty as my ocean-going continues, but it did prompt the first graphic in this week’s gallery by the producers of the Ricochet podcast, where I ended up being a mostly silent spectator this week between 10-second bursts of connection, which was about all I needed for my very few five-second bursts of lucidity. Meanwhile, I still haven’t been able to restore my old hijacked Twitter account, so I have launched a new one: @RealStevenHayward. Follow if you’re into the whole social media thing. I think I’ll be more like that RealOtherGuy and do more polemic entries than

A Utah judge in the case against the man accused of killing Charlie Kirk ruled Friday to hold a prosecutor in civil contempt for violating a pretrial publicity order but opted to leave the death penalty in place as a possible outcome in the murder trial. The defense’s contempt motion stemmed from comments prosecutor Christopher Ballard, also a spokesperson for the Utah County Attorney’s Office, made to media outlets this spring about an inconclusive ballistics report mentioned in a defense filing. While trying to clarify the results of the report to reporters, Ballard also referenced the strength of the state’s case against Tyler Robinson – statements the judge on Friday

Britain is in even worse shape than I thought. From the Telegraph: “Air conditioning torn from homes under net zero clampdown.” Homeowners are being forced to tear out air conditioning from their private properties under climate laws, despite rising temperatures. Council planning officers ordered residents to remove air-con units over fears they produce too much carbon dioxide, stating they should only be used as a “last resort”. The net zero clampdown is part of building regulations that state “active cooling” should only ever be allowed when all other means of “passive cooling”, such as opening windows or using fans, have been exhausted. So whether you can air condition your home

On Thursday afternoon, court reporters who had been following the trial of Palisades Fire suspect Jonathan Rinderknecht were buzzing on social media with news that the jury in the case had reached a verdict. Brittny Mejia, the Metro reporter for the Los Angeles Times, was one of several journalists who initially wrote that a verdict had been reached. Later, however, it was shared that the jury had indicated they were "at a standstill": (X) The note also stressed that each side in the jury room was "deadset." Mejia revealed in a follow-up tweet that it appeared the judge was going to send a note

The company formerly known as Dominion Voting Systems is ending a $1.3 billion defamation lawsuit against Mike Lindell, the MyPillow magnate and President Trump ally who has promoted false claims that the 2020 election was stolen. Dominion sued the businessman in 2021, alleging that Lindell knew there was no evidence to support his election conspiracy theories, but used the lies to sell pillows. When he was sued, Lindell told WCCO's Esme Murphy that he was "very happy" about the lawsuit, saying the truth would come out. In October 2025, Dominion was acquired by St. Louis-based Liberty Vote, which was founded by former Republican elections director Scott Leiendecker.

The U.S. Supreme Court voted 6–3 on June 25 to strike down a Hawaii gun law that banned residents from carrying concealed weapons in privately owned public places, such as gas stations and shopping malls. The majority opinion in Wolford v. Lopez was authored by Justice Samuel Alito. Justices Elena Kagan, Ketanji Brown Jackson, and Sonia Sotomayor dissented in the case, which was closely watched by gun rights advocates. Alito said the Second Amendment “has the same meaning in all parts of the United States.” “It cannot give way to ‘the spirit of Aloha’ in Hawaii … any more than it can yield to the spirit of the Big Apple …

An elderly woman was killed and another man was injured after a rogue Tesla in Autopilot mode crashed into a home in Texas on Friday night, local officials say. According to a press release from the Harris County Sheriff's Department, Michael Butler was traveling eastbound down a residential street in Katy in a Tesla Model 3. Butler said that he was using the car's Autopilot mode at the time of the crash. The sheriff's department said that Butler failed to drive in a single lane, left the roadway and crashed through the side of a house. Ring doorbell footage of the crash shows the vehicle crashing into the home at a high

More than a dozen travelers were banned from sailing with Carnival Cruise Line after fighting at the port in Miami. The altercation took place in the Customs and Border Protection debarkation area, according to the company. The June 22 fight occurred between two families and police responded, the Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office (MDSO) said. “The incident was deemed a mutual combatant incident,” MDSO told USA TODAY in an email. Police documented the fight, but the parties declined to press charges. “We are appreciative of law enforcement’s swift response and handling of the matter,” Carnival said in an emailed statement. “We do not tolerate such behavior, and 16 people have been placed

Since Islam’s arrival upon the world stage 1,400 years ago, when an illiterate Arab by the name of Mohammad, born in Mecca, claimed to be a messenger sent by God (whom he called “Allah”) to spread Allah’s word, approximately 270 million human beings have been slaughtered in Islam’s and Allah’s name, according to the Center for the Study of Political Islam. (Approximately 120 million Africans, 80 million Hindus, 60 million Christians, and 10 million Buddhists.) Until fairly recently, Westerners were unfamiliar with Islam or its practitioners. However, since Congress enacted America’s Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965, our doors have been flung wide open to a Third World, non-Western population whose

The Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool has been at the center of a political fight for weeks, with Democrats insisting damage to the site is the result of poor contractor work and conservatives pointing to deliberate sabotage. Now Jesse Watters says he has video from the Department of the Interior showing two individuals acting suspiciously at the pool. Watters walked viewers through the footage on Jesse Watters Primetime Tuesday night. His team hasn't independently verified the video, but what it appears to show is hard to dismiss. "June 19, a male, blue shirt, reaches in, stays there for a little while. He goes back down, comes back up multiple times,"
