□ [“The Steve Miller Band Cancels All Remaining Tour Dates Due to Climate Change"]

One of those acts that a staple on classic rock but I couldn't name a single one of their songs.  Looking at their greatest hits, I can see why, I never remotely liked the few I've heard of.  I certainly would never have thought they were still around.  But obviously I was wrong until now.

For one thing, if we take their excuse seriously, that indicates these are bunch of crazy idiots.  They're not blaming the fossil fuel they'd be using to travel everywhere on this tour, just global warming and weather in general.  This shows that they've never really thought about this before, yet insist they're devout believers in it, more like members of a cult than anything else.  The grand wizard told me to cancel the tour because my moon was in Sagittarius!

There are a couple possible reasons for cancelling the tour that are more likely.  Tickets not selling would be the most obvious.  Can't say anything about that because I'd need to be paid to go to one of this band's shows, but it's theoretically possible that someone else might.  Which leads to the other possibility, the dude's in his 80s and there's really a point where you should stop doing things like this.  But I guess that's not how you became rich and famous.

□ [“The Democratic Civil War Has Begun — Obama Pulled the Trigger"]

That's a bit of hyperbole, Obama just made himself a target.  He rarely speaks out in public but the party has no leaders so he's one of the most likely options.  Who else is there?  Biden, Harris, Bill, Hillary, Nancy, Chuck?  Only Obama and Clinton ever had to act like a chief executive and only Obama and Harris were born after 1950.  Only Obama still has any real popularity, probably because he doesn't go out in public.

But the party needs someone to lead them so he wins by default.  Unfortunately that means leftists will turn against him because he's the most convenient target.  Republicans are attacking Trump but not denying what else he's been doing to help the country.  If he fixed this current problem, he'd be back where he was a month ago.  Democrats don't have that option, which is why they're suddenly obsessed with Trump's current problem.  They weren't a month ago.

An indicator of the way Obama realizes someone needs to take a leadership position in the party is how he and Michelle suddenly made an appearance on a podcast to insist their marriage is great and strong and believable.   “She took me back,” he opens with in a totally masculine way.  “Now don’t start,” she responds like a devoted wife.  And they never ever thought of breaking up.  “Don’t make me cry now,” he says about that.

I try to avoid married people in public so I don't know if any of them really talk that way, but I do know it's not how masculine men talk.  I think that's why Obama pretended to oppose gay marriage when running for election - and no Democrat complained about that - then somehow became totally fine with for re-election.  Michelle's never going to leave him unless she's incredibly stupid and if she was, she'd have probably left him already.  She could not handle the massive lifestyle reduction that would happen and her podcast certainly isn't successful enough to make up for the loss.

But whoever follows ratings for podcasts might have something to report in a week or month or whenever.  We'll see if Obama still has a fanbase who are willing to listen to him here, since nobody's listening to Michelle.  That will be an indicator of if he has any real influence on the voters these days.

□ [“Newsom to Dump Low-Income Housing in Million-Dollar Pacific Palisades Neighborhood"]

The fires started just after Joe Biden went to California on one of his few visits anywhere, so the state had federal approval to torch everything.  California rules made sure that nobody would get to rebuild anything no matter how rich they were.  Now Newsom has suddenly dropped some of those rules, making it easier for constructors to get the no-bid contracts.  Yeah, nothing about this seems like it was planned.

Is it safe to assume that these regulations will still be in place for everyone else who tries to build anything in the state?  California can't even build a railroad in less than 20 years so they'll need all the help they can get if Newsom is going to use this as a selling point in 2028 when he runs for POTUS.  It's also safe to assume that illegal aliens will get the first pick of this housing, and they're already going to pay a lot less in taxes than the rich people who used to live here.

It seems most likely that this neighborhood will be used by China, Muslims or both to expand their turf.  It's right on the coast so I assume China already has ties, especially given all the celebrities who've been there for decades.  Liberals have been working to help invaders for a long time.

□ [“Violent Riots in Spanish Town After Gang of African Migrants Savagely Beat Elderly Man"]
□ [“Algerian Journalist Living In Sweden Calls On Algerian Youth To 'Colonize France'"]

What really started me writing all these articles every day was covering the war on terror.  And well, this is the sort of thing I was talking about back then.  It's also why I supported the US in Afghanistan and Iraq.  You can quibble about what we did and why but it still comes down to we'll fight them over there or we'll fight them here and as we can see, Europe did not accept that.  Would have gone a lot better if we took over, shot anybody we didn't like and stayed there until these people learned to be civilized.

But now they've infested Europe and the US.  Leftists, globalists and elites support this and see no way it could go wrong.  They're protected by men with guns and have very few children so they have no reason to worry about the future.  Everyone else can be left to suffer from the invaders.  The invaders support that.

I don't even have any hope for young Europeans.  I want to and I hope I'm wrong but they're the ones who should be standing up to fight back, both against the enemy and their own masters.  It's just one of those things where you can't even fathom how a nation would get to this point.  They built civilization and then just crumbled.

□ [“AG Bondi Will Release Pertinent Epstein Testimony After Trump Calls For Documents Release"]

A little late now.  First of all, few people are going to trust whatever's released.  Second of all, there's a good chance it will just be empty nonsense, just like the documents Bondi said she'd release a few months ago.  Third of all, Trump specified "pertinent Grand Jury testimony, subject to Court approval.”  That seems a lot more limited than it should be.  I get the argument that court testimony is all that matters but even there, it has to be "pertinent" and the court gets to decide.  Just release *everything.*

Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt spoke out today.  A couple interesting nuggets.  For one thing, she said Trump did not support a "special prosecutor" on this, contradicting what one of Trump's people said yesterday.  True or not, she is the official spokesman so there you go.  She also reported on Trump's health, some issue with his hands and ankles which happens in men his age and/or with his health condition.  Don't know why, probably just the timing, but I get the impression that it's something else, closer to Fetterman's sudden surgical change.  I know, I'm just trying to find any excuse to be positive about this.

Unfortunately I'm still trying to be optimistic.  Could this get anywhere?  Trump just fired James Comey's daughter who was part of the Epstein's prosecution.  You don't need to bribe/threaten the defense attorneys.  She didn't seal the Epstein files but fought to keep them sealed from the public.  I do think New York state is a central point for these sex cults, like NXIVM.  The Comey family was involved, for protection if nothing else.

So could this mean anything or will it be as relevant as a P. Diddy trial, which is also happening in New York?  Well that's the question.  Who was funding Epstein all these years?  That's how we know there's more to this story, he wasn't great as a financial consultant yet rich people kept giving him money for no reason.  That's a lot of people who could be named.  We already know his island had lots of cameras on it precisely to catch his visitors, there's more names.  I'm going to say this reveal could be very relevant but you should probably just assume I'm wrong about it.  It'll save time that way.
