• The National Weather Service issued a heat warning for the entire West Coast Sunday. Triple-digit temperature readings extended from the Pacific Northwest all the way to San Diego. It's so hot in California that Governor Newsom just re-districted the state congressional map to include Alaska.

• Good Morning America interviewed the Cracker Barrel CEO Friday who downplayed the backlash against her decision to change their cherished logo. Trying to try to please everybody is the trend. White Castle is planning to change its logo to simply Castle as the previous name is deemed too offensive.

• Cracker Barrel stock crashed on Wall Street due to customer anger over the logo change Friday with the company stock losing over $200 million in value. There's one thing they can do now. The only way to save Cracker Barrel is a TV ad with Sydney Sweeney and change the name to a Barrel of Hooters.

• Cracker Barrel stock tanked after erasing Uncle Herschel from its logo Friday in the latest PC attack on cherished icons like Aunt Jemima and Uncle Ben. Last year they removed the Land o' Lakes Indian woman sitting on a Midwest lakeshore. True to US policy we erased the Indian and kept the land.

• President Trump named himself Chairman of the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington. Trump wants to place his personal stamp on culture. When the Center presents Eugene O'Neill's play The Ice Man Cometh, don't expect to see any Mexicans in the audience by the second act.

• President Trump continued to agitate Progressives last week declaring that woke is dead. It's still breathing across the pond. Great Britain's Labor Government just ordered everyone in England to watch women's soccer games on TV and added that failure to do so will result in imprisonment or death.

• The Daily Mail reported stand-up comics in England are defying the Labor Party's crackdown on free speech. The ban threatens jail for jokes the government deems offensive to anyone. Last week, a reporter asked Ellen DeGeneres how she likes living in England, and she said, I can't complain.

• Governor Gavin Newsom was accused by critics of neglecting to clean up California last week while he campaigned for president and blasted Republicans on social media, on TV and onstage. Describing his new style, Gavin says he plans to fight fire with fire. In that case, no one is better qualified.

• The New York Times was targeted by angry college protests Friday demanding pro-Palestinian coverage in the Gaza War. School's back in session in New York. College students who come to the US from Colombia never dreamed that Columbia University is more violent than their own country.

• The Texas Senate fought off bids by Democrats to stall the House redistricting bill Friday and passed it in Austin. The anger was exacerbated by the brutal Texas heat wave. Fifty miles away at the Texas federal women's prison, it was so hot Friday that Ghislaine Maxwell was sticking to her story.

• US Navy ships are anchored off Venezuela with a $50 million reward posted for the capture of dictator Nicholas Maduro. If I'm a Marine I have to compute which action would be more profitable, seizing Maduro or one of his boatloads of cocaine. Millions could be lost if you slept through math class.

• The FDA warned the West Coast not to eat the WalMart shrimp after they tested positive for Cesium 137 when they arrived from Asia at Long Beach. I guess there's a difference between grade school atomic attack drills now compared to when I was a kid. Today the kids duck and cover under the cafeteria tables.
