The Morning Report 5/28/25

Posted on by J.J. Sefton

Good morning kids.  It is with much sadness we note the passing of rock and roll guitar maestro Rick Derringer ((born Richard Zehringer out of Celina OH), at age 77. His debut smash hit with his band the McCoys Hang on Sloopy is in my estimation the first real modern rock guitar solo and for me paved the way for the fireworks of Page, Townsend and Clapton for the remainder of the 60s and well into the following decade where the supergroups came into their own. Oh well, yet another reminder of my youth passes into history, so RIP Rick and thanks for the memories.

Now back to the ongoing insanity here at home and around the world. Here at home, the Democrats are continuing to commit what in a sane world (discounting the ever-present possibility/probability of Democrat election thievery pardon the redundancy) political suicide.

First example:

Republican Texas Rep. Brandon Gill blasted Democrats on Fox Business Tuesday over the Memorial Day weekend and accused them of engaging in a “bizarre and grotesque” public display of sympathy for a deported MS-13 gang member.

Maryland Democratic Rep. Glenn Ivey traveled to El Salvador over Memorial Day in an unsuccessful bid to meet with deported and alleged MS-13 member Kilmar Abrego Garcia, becoming the latest Democrat to publicly advocate for his return to the U.S. During an appearance on “The Bottom Line,” Gill blasted Ivey’s action as tone-deaf and offensive, especially on a weekend meant to honor fallen American service members.

Second case:

Democrat New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is sticking to her far-left views on immigration despite a growing number of Democrats changing their tune on border security issues.

Ocasio-Cortez, a rumored 2028 presidential candidate who is viewed as a rising leader in the Democratic Party, renewed her calls for the abolition of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in a campaign email published Monday evening.  The socialist firebrand’s decision to commit to a viewpoint out of step with a majority of voters comes as many Democrats have sought to distance themselves from the “abolish ICE” bandwagon that some strategists believe has hurt the party’s brand. “I believe that ICE, an agency that was just formed in 2003 during the Patriot Act era, is a rogue agency that should not exist,” an Ocasio-Cortez campaign email said Monday slamming critics that consider the far-left congresswoman “extreme.”

The New York Democrat, who called for the abolition of ICE during President Donald Trump’s first term, also posted content to social media earlier this year advising illegal migrants on how to evade ICE arrests.

A majority of voters — including Democrats — appear to reject Ocasio-Cortez’s “abolition ICE” advocacy, according to recent polling.

I guess yet again, an example of the Left Hand not knowing what the FAR LEFT hand is doing. All the way to the midterms and beyond Democrats. Keep on digging, eventually you’ll strike Satan right on the head. 


Of course, it’s too bad we lack a GOP that can take full advantage of Democrat/Leftist disarray, case in point the whole madness surrounding the arguments over the so-called “Big Beautiful Bill.” While DOGE and the exposure of the insanity at Harvard and academia in general by cutting off the brainwashing mills from taxpayer funding are certainly big wins.

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis slammed Congressional Republicans on Tuesday over their lack of action on cutting the government waste and abuse identified by the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). . .

. . . In a post on X, DeSantis put the heat on Republicans to do just that, pointing out that DOGE Chief Elon Musk “took massive incoming,” which included “attacks on his companies” and “personal smears” while leading the DOGE effort. “He became public enemy #1 of legacy media around the world,” DeSantis wrote.  “To see Republicans in Congress cast aside any meaningful spending reductions (and, in fact, fully fund things like USAID) is demoralizing and represents a betrayal of the voters who elected them,” the governor added. DeSantis was commenting on a post by Matt Van Swol, an independent journalist from North Carolina, who had blasted Republicans on X, Monday. “DOGE is literally one of the most popular government initiatives in history,” Van Swol wrote. “73% of Americans say they support cutting government waste. Trump brought in the smartest man on earth to do it … the Left destroyed Elon for it … the GOP won’t vote on it.  I can’t believe this.” . . . “We have a Republican Congress and to this day, we’re at the end of May, past Memorial Day, and not one CENT in DOGE cuts have been implemented by the Congress!” DeSantis cried.


And on the international front, President Trump seems to be more preoccupied with doing exactly the wrong things, be it with the whole Ukraine debacle and in feeding raw sugar to a cancerous tumor.

A senior Trump administration official told The Daily Wire that the White House is “proud” to back GHF’s “incredible mission” and that the group is a direct threat to “Hamas’ longstanding system of looting the assistance intended for the people of Gaza.”

“The U.N. and other aid agencies were wrong to criticize – aid is getting to the people in need and through their secure distribution system, Israel is kept safe and Hamas empty-handed,” the official said.

According to GHF, Hamas has made death threats to aid groups supporting GHF’s operations

Sadly, as has been confirmed on numerous occasions since the October 7 mass attack/pogrom there are no innocent civilians in Gaza, newborns and crawling infants perhaps notwithstanding, but parents and children alike were complicit in the kidnappings and imprisonment of Israeli hostages or at a minimum cheering on the butchery of the Jews. 

That President Trump and his advisers have yet to realize this is a head-scratcher. Obviously, from an optics standpoint he cannot give a thumbs up for the IDF to go all out and wipe out Hamas regardless of the collateral damage to “civilians.” But that said, it is the civilians and their government that they put in power HAMAS that are to blame for their own suffering by waging a genocidal war against Israel, leaving the latter no real alternative.

But, the problem is not Hamas. The problem is ISLAM itself. Hamas is merely a weapon/manifestation of the latter. And this is the case with Iran as well as in Syria where President Trump and company are impressed with a Mohammedan ISIS thug merely because a second hand John Gotti Brioni suit looks good on him. 

Meh, Islam is the world’s problem and unless and until the world decides to openly and loudly declare its right to defend civilization from its millennium and-a-half long rampage that can only end in an Islamic world conquest which would be the real end of History as we Fukuyama ourselves in the head. Unless the Chi-Coms beat them to the punch. 

Or perhaps if we’re lucky . . . 

A 3.6 magnitude earthquake struck near Soda Springs, Idaho, about 100 miles from the famous Yellowstone supervolcano caldera, renewing some concerns about a potential eruption. . . While geologists are still investigating the Friday morning quake, the Yellowstone supervolcano influences seismic activity in this region due to its massive magma chamber and connected fault lines.

It generates 1,500 to 2,000 small earthquakes each year, most of which are weaker than 2.0 on the Richter scale of magnitude.

These tremors usually shake areas within the Yellowstone Caldera and nearby fault zones, but the supervolcano can also influence seismic activity over 100 miles away.

Things that make you go boom . . .
