JOHN A KONRAD V: Carl Icahn perfectly explains why the pentagon adopting MBA culture was a disaster, why we need to bring abrasive generals back, why the press & politicians love useless admirals, and why consultants needs to be banned from government projects.

PERCENTAGE OF [INDIAN] RURAL HOUSEHOLDS WHO DEFECATE IN THE OPEN

Obvious Goal of Communists: Empty the Prisons, the way foreign gov'ts have as they've dumped their worst and dumbest onto the West, and to defund Police. So I'll state the obvious: they're striving for lawlessness.

[Francesca Hongrepeatedly called to defund then abolish the police, writing that:

“police exist to uphold white supremacy. Defund then abolish. Reform can’t be an option.”

Even after being confronted in 2026, she refused to delete the posts and still defends her “long-term vision” of a world without police or prisons.

She wants to use the Wisconsin National Guard to arrest federal ICE agents, an openly unconstitutional threat, and has called ICE “the leading edge of Trump’s fascist agenda.”  --Amy Mek

🚨 Wisconsin Voters: This Is Your Last Warning! 

Francesca Hong, DSA card-carrying radical, failed restaurant owner, and current frontrunner for governor, is running on the most extreme platform we’ve seen in this state in decades.

She repeatedly called to defund then abolish the police, writing that:

“police exist to uphold white supremacy. Defund then abolish. Reform can’t be an option.”

Even after being confronted in 2026, she refused to delete the posts and still defends her “long-term vision” of a world without police or prisons.

She wants to use the Wisconsin National Guard to arrest federal ICE agents, an openly unconstitutional threat, and has called ICE “the leading edge of Trump’s fascist agenda.”

She was one of the leaders of Wisconsin’s “uninstructed” campaign against Biden, slamming U.S. support for Israel/Jews and pushing hard for Gaza (She does not care about Gaza - she needs the Islamic vote to help take down America).

She’s a clear poster child for Red/Green Alliance - far-left socialism fused with Islamic supremacy.

🚨Her economic policies are straight out of the DSA playbook:

🔺$20 minimum wage

🔺free childcare

🔺public grocery stores

🔺a public bank

🔺and a full moratorium on data center construction.

While pushing all of this, she’s been actively platforming one of the most toxic radicals on the left: Hasan Piker.

Piker is the self-proclaimed socialist Twitch streamer (banned from entering Britain) who has said he would “vote for Hamas over Israel every single time,” called Hezbollah a “legitimate form of militancy,” and dismissed reports of Hamas’s Oct. 7 sexual violence as “rape fantasies” and “rape hallucinations.”

He once claimed America “deserved” 9/11.

Hong went on his show, let him raise over $57,000 for her in one night, and heard him promise to fly to Wisconsin to campaign for her.

This is how the far left is using streaming to radicalize young people and finish the takeover of the Democratic Party from the inside.

Oh, and her own restaurant, Morris Ramen, collapsed in 2024.

She was sued for nearly $30,000 in credit card debt from the business.

Her parents had to bail her out.

This is the woman leading polls to become the next governor of Wisconsin - a state Donald Trump won in 2024.

The Democratic primary is August 11.

If she wins, this is what Wisconsin gets: defunded and eventually abolished police, open defiance of federal immigration law, full socialist economic policies, and a governor who platforms people who defend Hamas and Hezbollah.

This isn’t normal politics. This is something much worse.

SEE THE FULL REPORT: 

PAWEL USIADEK: In France, the construction of a gigantic mosque in Strasbourg is underway - a whopping 10,000 m² of floor space! The €32 million project is being funded by Turkey and Qatar. So the question is, who is really shaping Europe today? Foreign states are pumping millions into their influence, while EU politicians look the other way.

Strasbourg[b] is a prefecture and commune, and the largest city of the Grand Est region of northeastern France, in the historic region of Alsace. It is the prefecture of the Bas-Rhin department and the official seat of the European Parliament.

 

CHRIS SALCEDO: You know who isn’t asking questions about why Elaine Chao, a private citizen, upon hearing of her husband’s alleged heart attack & subsequent hospitalization, jumped on a plane to go meet with one of the most senior members of an enemy nation, China’s Communist Party? Elected congressional politicians.

Seems like every move, every instinct of hers reeks traitorous.   

KYLIE JANE KREMER: We also need proof of life of Senator McConnell! If Mitch McConnell dies before August 3, Kentucky law would trigger a special election for his Senate seat.

Remember Elaine Chao?

Elaine Lan Chao is a Taiwanese-American businesswoman and former government official who served as United States secretary of labor in the administration of George W. Bush from 2001 to 2009 and as United States secretary of transportation in the first administration of Donald Trump from 2017 to 2021. A member of the Republican Party, Chao was the first Asian-American woman to serve in a presidential cabinet. She resigned as transportation secretary after the January 6 United States Capitol attack. Wikipedia

Kylie Jane Kremer tells us,

I think this whole situation surrounding Mitch McConnell just became far more serious. 
What authority was Elaine Chao acting under when she met with a senior CCP while her husband, a sitting U.S. senator, was hospitalized following a reported medical emergency? 
Elaine Chao hasn’t held a U.S. government position since January 7, 2021, when she resigned as Secretary of Transportation. 
The Logan Act prohibits unauthorized private citizens from conducting correspondence or negotiations with foreign governments regarding disputes or matters involving the United States. 
If Elaine Chao was representing the United States with authorization from the U.S. government, the State Department should say so. 
If she was acting solely as a private citizen while discussing U.S.-China relations with senior Chinese officials, it raises legitimate questions about whether the Logan Act could apply. 
The State Department should immediately explain whether this meeting was officially sanctioned, what capacity Elaine Chao was serving in, and whether she had authorization to engage in those discussions. 
President Trump has previously criticized Elaine Chao over her family’s business ties to China. Regardless of politics, the American people deserve transparency about the purpose of this meeting. 
These questions are even more important because there are still serious unanswered questions about Senator McConnell’s condition. We still do not know the status of a sitting U.S. senator while his wife was meeting with the CCP. 
Finally, has anyone confirmed whether Elaine Chao has returned to the United States? If so, when? If not, where is she now? 
This is a national security issue. The American people deserve answers. 

She adds

If Mitch McConnell dies before August 3, Kentucky law would trigger a special election for his Senate seat. 
The RINOs in power can’t afford for that to happen, which is why this whole situation feels like Weekend at Bernie’s. 
Weeks have gone by with virtually no meaningful update on the condition of a sitting U.S. Senator. The lack of transparency has been outrageous and has left people wondering whether he’s being kept alive on life support or whether the full truth simply isn’t being told… has he already passed??? 
Then there’s Elaine Chao, McConnell’s wife, traveling to China to meet with a CCP leader just days after McConnell was hospitalized. Maybe there’s an explanation, but the timing is undeniably odd. Would you leave your husband to travel to China if he is so ill he’s in the hospital for over 20 days? I sure wouldn’t. 
Something about this entire situation doesn’t add up, and the American people deserve answers.
@McConnellPress WE NEED PROOF OF LIFE!

HIGHER EDUCATION WANTS TO ELIMINATE WHITE PEOPLE AND THEIR CULTURE. HUH.

GREGORY K. BOVINO: DHS is now shutting down 7 of 11 new ICE facilities. This isn’t enforcement. It’s de facto amnesty.

MILA JOY: This chart lists which illegals, by nationality, are getting the most FREE MONEY from the US government.

13:48.  The disparate impact is our greatest weapon against merit.  It is our greatest weapon against excellence and it is an abuse of the spirit of our civil rights laws, which was to say we're going to allow everybody to reach their highest potential.  We ban discrimination, but we do not ban excellence.  We do not ban high expectations. We want all people to reach the same level of competence.  We're not going to have two standards of achievement: one for a particular race, another for another race.  One for a particular sex, another for a different sex.  We are going to have a single level of excellence in this society, and that is how we're going to move forward.  

14:35.  Reporter:  There is a deliberate effort to hire more people from more diverse backgrounds to work as paramedics and EMTs.

You're also may be putting people's lives at risk.  

American nationals attended a funeral event for Khamenei in Tehran on July 4, per MEMRI. American Communist Party official Christopher Helali: "I am here to defend Iran."

from Trevor Loudon on Jackson Hinkle,

We've exposed Gabbard's role in the February 19, 2023 "Rage Against The War Machine" rally, alongside her supporters Scott Ritter and Jackson Hinkle, who push for the destruction of the West through Aleksandr Dugin's "Multipolarity" vision.
Scott Ritter and Jackson Hinkle (and Hinkle comrade Haz Al Din, also a member of the "American Communist Party" Plenary Committee) have been associated with Caleb Maupin and his events. On December 2, 2023, Scott Ritter addressed Caleb Maupin's Center for Political Innovation's national convention, where he loudly supported Hamas to a standing ovation. "I don't Condemn Hamas, I support Hamas!" Tulsi Gabbard's connections are a clear endorsement of anti-Western ideologies.
Does that hammer and sickle send up any red flags?

HERBERT CALDERON: Scenes from the Wild West in Newport Beach this evening, which led to the city shutting all its businesses down around Newport pier up to PCH. Not one bar is open tonight in this part of Newport.

Out of towners?

Heather MacDonald / Crime Stats Don't Lie.  Why Are We Ignoring Them?  Episode 53


N. LEE PLUMB: INVESTIGATING H-1B FRAUD


@ 7:48 mark, "How Can I Help Investigate?"  https://fraudreporter.visadata.org/Thanks to Nick Plumb


11:47.  Oh you put your business as you are residential home no you actually have to comply with the laws with the H1B and the LCA that you have to post the actual work site location.  You have to update it if you change the work site.  And so that's where it gets dicey from what we're finding.  But tell me this, how often do you run into the flex space, "we work" type locations, because when we're looking into this we're coming into a lot of random, remote, virtual office spaces the coworking spaces, where you're sharing space with other remote employees.  Have you come across that as well a lot?

12:30.  Yeah, I think you can bucket it into three different types.  There's a home which really makes you wonder if there's a bona fide job at all which is required to file the LCA.  Makes you wonder if it's even a real business. There's also those that are in the workstiles, where you go and you rent a virtual space, they may or may not even have an office.  And then there's that third bucket where you go in and you rent a suite in a building.  None of them seem particularly legitimate at least those that you have a door you can knock on.  You can request the public access file.  I found one in Sugarland the other day that is above a U-Haul center.  Absolutely just riddled with them.  And then there's one fourth trend caveat: they all tend to have an immigration lawyer within a stone's throw of where these places are set up.  

13:25.  You obviously know a lot about this H-1B visa issue and you're passionate about it, but what made you decide to do all of this?

13:33.  It's really two things. One is my daughter.  My oldest daughter graduated from high school last year, and I'm going to brag for a second, she had a 4.5 GPA; she graduated with 32 college credits coming out of high school, every EC, extracurricular, that you could imagine, whether it was athletic or academic. She graduated in Colorado where my ex-wife lives.  So when she tried to get into the University of Texas at Austin and was rejected from the entire school system, I thought maybe there's more than just the work visa happening.  I work in big Tech.  I'd seen my team's change drastically in the last 5 years in terms of demographics.  I saw a lot of foreigners being brought in, and then when it hit home it was my daughter that's really what pushed me over the edge.  

WANJIRU NJOYA: People don't like warnings, that's the problem. There's a reason prophets are hated by their own people. They're seen as "heralds of woe" and people don't like bad news, they prefer being told they're winning.

Suicide of the West: An Essay on the Meaning and the Destiny of Liberalism, James Burnham, 1964.  from Amazon.

MARIO NAWFAL: It's clear immigration remains a top concern for many voters.

"Life, Liberty, Victory" doesn't sound like grassroots.  Sounds more like some police work.  "Victory"?  What, are we engaged in a war we've been told doesn't exist?   

DIANA WEST: There are no synagogues in Saudi Arabia, either.

DR. JANE RUBY: Trump approved the use of cancer-causing pesticides diflufenican and epyrifenacil, both PFAS forever chemicals, on June 30, 2026. Neither pesticide has ever been used in the United States before. MAHA IS A PSYOP

ASRA NOMANI: Common words used to attack America: ❌ “billionaires” ❌ “oligarchs” ❌ “monopolies” ❌ “masked agents terrorizing our streets” . . . that’s where we get these smears too: ❌ “fascists” ❌ “Nazis” ❌ “white settler-colonists” ❌ “Epstein class”

🇨🇳 WATCH. FOLLOW THE PROPAGANDA. On America’s 250th birthday, Zohran Mamdani is parroting the rhetoric and propaganda scripted in Shanghai and Beijing by the Communist Party of China in its COGNITIVE WARFARE against America, designed to shame Americans, dismantle national pride and destroy America’s collective psyche.

Common words used to attack America:

❌ “billionaires”

❌ “oligarchs”

❌ “monopolies”

❌ “masked agents terrorizing our streets”

He didn’t say it in this clip, but that’s where we get these smears too:

❌ “fascists”

❌ “Nazis”

❌ “white settler-colonists”

❌ “Epstein class”

I saw this pattern when I discovered a video of Neville Roy Singham standing at the Golden Tulip Hotel in Shanghai, China, in November 2025 and smearing America as a “fascist” nation and celebrating the “new world order” of the Chinese Communist Party. 

Watch all 4:13 to see how Singham uses the same framing as Mamdani foes: casting America’s democracy as a nation of contradictions, unlike the visionary governance of the Chinese Communist Party. 

You have to listen very carefully — maybe even twice. This is the only modern day speech discovered so far in which Singham lays out his theory of change, 

Experts note: dare to stand at Tiananmen Square and say any of these words against the Chinese Communist Party and can you imagine your fate? But these same anti-U.S. propagandists support the Chinese Communist Party, which controls its people’s free speech and human rights. 

That’s the true “contradiction.”

Meanwhile, critics say, communist China 🇨🇳 is a nation of wealth inequality.  Asra Nomani.
