It’s a Time for Choosing II: Do You
Trust Trump With Iran — or Not?

Rep. Ro Khanna (D-Calif.) proudly supports term limits for Supreme Court justices. “The public’s trust in the Supreme Court has plummeted,” he announced in a press release. “Extreme conservatives on the Court have stripped away Americans’ fundamental rights. Term limits and a binding code of ethics will rebalance the Court and rebuild confidence in our institutions.” (Snip) Which brings us to President Donald Trump and this on-again, off-again, still-being-negotiated conclusion to the war in Iran. We’ve gone from demanding unconditional surrender to shuffling U.S. diplomats in and out of Pakistan, patiently waiting for the Iranians to capitulate. Is Trump’s strategy wise?

Far-left Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) appears to be moving toward a possible run for the White House, Axios reported Sunday.
Although she has said she has not made a decision on the matter, Ocasio-Cortez has been on a national tour rallying voters and making endorsements in several races, the outlet said.
The Axios article detailed some of her recent movements and plans:
Addressed the historic Ebenezer Baptist Church in Atlanta with Georgia Sen. Raphael Warnock. (Democrats note that Warnock, the church’s senior pastor, doesn’t always allow visiting politicians to speak at this church. Former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg didn’t speak when he visited in March.)

Billionaire California gubernatorial candidate Tom Steyer said he fully supports transgender-identifying males playing on females’ high school sports teams — despite concerns over women’s safety and fairness in athletics.
Steyer, who is endorsed by the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA), made the comment during an interview on the I’ve Had It podcast with far-left host Jennifer Welch, which was released Sunday.
“You talked about trans people. I’m totally in favor of trans athletes in high school,” Steyer said.
“I think when you understand the vulnerability, the stress, the danger of being a trans kid, and you understand that almost half of them try to commit suicide,” he said,
In another major win for President Trump’s efforts to right the wrongs of the weaponized Biden DOJ and FBI, and to fully restore the rights of all January 6 defendants, the Department of Justice filed a motion late Friday night, May 22, asking D.C. District Court Judge Amit Mehta to dismiss with prejudice the underlying indictments against the eight innocent Oath Keepers defendants whose sentences were commuted (but not fully pardoned) by President Trump.
They were released from prison on Inauguration Night 2025, just as four Proud Boys leaders likewise had their sentences commuted rather than pardoned, and were released from prison.
In an incident that belongs in Ripley’s Believe It or Not!, a dog managed to fire a gun and hit a woman while it was inside a vehicle last week in Nebraska.
As KNOP reported, Scottsbluff police officers were called to Short Stop at 2002 Avenue I in the city after receiving a report that a person had been shot by a BB gun at 12:07 p.m.
They were later informed while driving to the gas station and convenience store that the incident involved a shotgun.
When the police arrived, they were confronted with a shocking truth: the culprit responsible for the shooting incident was not human. Rather, it was man’s best friend.
Minnesota Governor Tim Walz chose to spend Memorial Day 2026 at George Floyd Square instead of honoring fallen service members at the state’s largest veterans’ cemetery, where he was officially scheduled to speak.
On Monday, the day the nation paused to remember our veterans who were lost, Walz appeared at the Rise & Remember Festival in south Minneapolis.
Memorial Day also fell on the sixth anniversary of George Floyd’s death on May 25, 2020.
A federal judge on Tuesday rejected a bid to block Tennessee’s new Congressional map that eliminates a racially gerrymandered district. Earlier this month, Tennessee Republicans passed a new congressional map that eliminated Democrat Rep. Steve Cohen’s Memphis district. Tennessee became the ninth state to approve a new congressional map amid the redistricting wars. A judge previously allowed Tennessee’s new congressional map to stand. Tennessee Republicans eliminated Cohen’s congressional district after the Supreme Court’s blockbuster ruling on racial gerrymandering.
Heh: A Well-Deserved Mockery of CNN 'Experts'

Commences After Trump Shares a Health Update 6 replies
CNN is one of the worst, if not the worst, offenders in the mainstream media when it comes to feigning "concern" over President Donald Trump's health, in part by using out-of-context photos and videos of Trump with his eyes appearing to be closed during meetings as "evidence" that he has a sleeping problem.
The most recent instance came earlier in the day, Tuesday, when they brought in a resident "health expert" to demand explanations from Trump's doctors about supposed issues related in part to Trump allegedly being seen falling asleep when he's sitting in the Oval Office during informal press briefings and the like.
Secretary of State Marco Rubio is known for taking on many jobs at once, and on Tuesday, he donned the hat of chief U.S. trade negotiator with Armenia as he signed a strategic partnership agreement with Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan. The agreement covers critical minerals and also bolsters cooperation on the Trump Route for International Peace and Prosperity (TRIPP), a 27-mile rail and road corridor that would go through southern Armenia. It would enhance trade by linking Central Asia to Turkey and Europe while — crucially — bypassing Russia and Iran.
Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey is either clueless, classless, or maybe a little of both. He’s one of the worst politicians out there — he’s just a doofus. (Snip) Meanwhile, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard did it right with this post
Gold Star wife Sharrall Anne tweeted, “This is probably a long shot, but if anybody happens to be in DC this weekend and plans on visiting Arlington, I would love to see a fresh photo of my husband’s grave in Section 60.”
Gabbard honored that request.
Spencer Pratt Just Turned LA’s Filth Into the Most Brutal Campaign Ad

Los Angeles Republican and mayoral candidate Spencer Pratt is continuing his dominating ad campaign with a new stunt designed to highlight just how filthy parts of the city have become.
Pratt’s team has been traveling across Los Angeles, targeting sidewalks covered in years of built-up dirt and grime. Using pressure washers and large stencils, they clean the message, “Imagine if the streets were clean. Spencer Pratt for Mayor of LA,” directly into the pavement.
Zohran Mamdani Just Announced Plans to Begin Seizing and Redistributing Private Property

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani kicked off his plan to “fix” the city’s affordability crisis with his official housing policy agenda, titled “Block by Block,” under which one of the first priorities is to allow the government to seize property from owners deemed “negligent” and redistribute it to so-called “responsible stewards,” a category that includes anyone from land trusts, nonprofits, or even tenants themselves.
The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) has announced authorization for more than a dozen new Medicaid prosecutors as its efforts to stamp out mass fraud expand across our nation.
The news was part of a series of announcements from the DOJ and federal healthcare agencies last Friday, May 22. Federal officials also revealed charges against 15 more Minnesota fraudsters, who represented about $90 million in stolen taxpayer money. Among the charges were the two largest Medicaid fraud cases in the history of Minnesota as well as unique charges relevant to Medicaid, never before brought. The DOJ made all of the announcements in a May 22 press release.

A federal district judge has been disciplined for having extramarital sex with a law enforcement officer inside the judge's chambers during business hours, according to several news reports.
A special committee for the Eleventh Circuit on Friday found the judge, who isn’t named, "demonstrated a gross lack of judgment." Clerks could overhear the intercourse taking place, which was "extremely uncomfortable and troubling" for them, according to Bloomberg Law.
The affair exposed the judge to risks of extortion since his or her spouse wasn't aware of the affair.
President Trump’s surprise endorsement catapulted Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton to a landslide victory in Tuesday’s Republican Senate primary runoff election.

Here are four takeaways from the contests in the Lone Star State.After coming in second place in the preliminary March 3 primary, Paxton was propelled by the president’s endorsement — defeating incumbent Sen. John Cornyn (R-Texas) by a stunning 27-point margin (63.8% to 36.2%) in the runoff.

U.S-based health aid organization is warning that the outbreak of the deadly Ebola disease in the Democratic Republic of Congo and Uganda is spreading faster than responders can contain it.
The warning came Tuesday from the International Rescue Committee, which said the outbreak is no longer limited to remote areas of northeastern Congo, ABC News reported.
Cases are now spreading to larger regional hubs, including the major city of Goma and Uganda's capital, Kampala.
The outbreak has resulted in over 900 suspected cases and at least 223 deaths so far.
Donald Trump’s reputation and political career were built on his dealmaking prowess, yet the president keeps demonstrating that he is a terrible negotiator.
Repeatedly over the past nine years, Trump has gotten rolled by counterparts during high-stakes exchanges. North Korea, Russia, Russia again, China, and China again have gotten the better of the United States.
For years, Democrats and their allies in the media swore Joe Biden was sharp as a tack, fully capable, and absolutely fine. Then came the June 2024 debate, and that story collapsed in real time before millions of viewers. The fallout was so bad that Biden's own party forced him off the ticket. He dropped out, spent the rest of his term below the radar, and has spent his post-presidency trying to rehabilitate his image. Now, that effort has taken a new and telling turn. Biden filed a lawsuit Tuesday in U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia seeking to block the Justice Department from releasing roughly

For many years the Soviet Union, and then Russia, financed the environmental movement in the United States. Their purpose was to suppress American production of oil and gas, and they succeeded to a considerable degree, to their own great benefit. Today, we are in the midst of another kind of race with Communist China–the race to develop superior systems of artificial intelligence. The Chinese Communist Party knows that if it wins this race, it will contribute greatly to its dreams of world domination, while if it loses, China, with its rapidly shrinking population, could be on the way to the garbage dump of history. So the stakes are enormous.

Republican Tennessee Rep. Tim Burchett is calling for the return of hanging as a federal execution method in response to one of the most depraved crimes in recent memory: the months-long torture, rape, and murder of 19-year-old Isabella Stroupe in Charlotte, North Carolina.
In a viral X post on Sunday, Burchett directly quoted a detailed account of Stroupe’s horrific death and asserted, “I have a bill to bring back hanging. Let’s see if all the tough talk by Congress holds up. Support the Drop Act.” Stroupe, 19, was found dead in an east Charlotte apartment in early May. According to court affidavits and police reports, she had been bound to
Luxury sports car maker Ferrari has unveiled its first fully electric car - the $640,000 (£474,320) Luce.
The new model departs from the look of typical Ferraris as the Italian brand's first ever five-seater, created in collaboration with the LoveFrom agency founded by former Apple design chief Sir Jony Ive.
Responses on social media to the launch ranged from describing it as "straight to the junkyard trash" to an "absolute masterclass in design". On Tuesday, the firm's shares fell more than 8% on the Milan stock market and by over 5% in New York.
Supercar rivals like Lamborghini and Porsche have scaled back on their EV plans due to poor demand

What does it say about the Democrats that they have to spend an inordinate amount of time trying to "normalize" their candidates? Enter Texas Democrat James Talarico, who will require a Herculean effort to clean up as a normal member of the planet Earth, let alone a viable Senate candidate in the Lone Star State.
On Thursday, the official social media account for the Democratic National Committee (DNC) posted an image of Talarico appearing to take a big ol' bite out of a turkey leg. While wearing a Texas flag shirt.
