All Americans should send their thoughts and prayers to the families of Minnesota Democrat Melissa Hortman and her husband, Mark, who were assassinated in Minnesota today. This deadly attack on elected officials should be condemned by every American.

ABC News announces "There are now more U.S. troops deployed to Los Angeles than in Iraq and Syria." Oh, to live in Trump's America in 2025. He wanted to "end all wars overseas" so he could start one in America. Now, that's true leadership for you.

Tolstoy's thoughts on Napoleon and a good fit for Trump. "Never to the end of his life could he understand goodness, beauty, or truth, or the significance of his actions which were too contrary to goodness and truth, too remote from everything human, for him ever to be able to grasp their meaning."

Terry Moran gets it about right about Stephen Miller and yet ABC suspends him. If not a world-class hater who is he? A world-class lover? Don't think so. Bring back Moran. Truth is truth. That's his job. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/08/b...

What mainstream media will never say: 50,000 Gazans have been killed or starved since the start of the Gaza-Israeli war, compared with 1,200 lost lives on the Israeli side. That's a 4000% difference. A staggering disproportionality that goes far, far beyond any legitimate rationale for self-defense.

Wasn't Trump during his campaign committed to lowering the U.S. debt, not raising it? A nonpartisan budget review says his new budget bill would add $3 trillion to $5 trillion to the nation's $36.2 trillion in debt over the next decade. God help the United States of America.

Trump says movies “produced in foreign lands” are a national security threat. According, he’s imposing a 100% tariff on all imported movies. Shows you how little Trump knows about the arts, which is nothing.
