• President Trump was in Madison Square Garden Monday for game 3 of the NBA finals. Fans were told to arrive two hours early to get through security. Hell, nowadays anyone can take a shot at Trump, but NBA players are a priceless national resource and we have to do all we can to protect them.
• The Hollywood Reporter reports that Hollywood movie studios are undergoing huge production cutbacks. This past year, movie ticket revenues are down $730 million. Last night I went to see the new Jennifer Lopez movie Office Romance, and it was harder to get through than the Strait of Hormuz.
• Star Wars: the Mandalorian and the Grogu is being pummeled at the box office by three other films made by You Tubers. It gets even more embarrassing. Brentwood Elementary's production of Willy Wonka this past weekend made more money and the cost of admission was a canned food item.
• The Chicago Bears edged closer last week to a deal to move 30 miles away to Hammond, Indiana, and a $5 billion domed stadium. Reaction was swift in Springfield. With the Bears laving Chicago, Governor JD Pritzker has introduced a bill to convert Soldier Field Stadium into a Golden Corral Buffet.
• Iran fired missiles at Israel Sunday for firing missiles at Hezbollah after the U.S. fired missiles at Iran for firing missiles at the UAE. It's just that simple. Trump was on the 15th hole when he heard the news Sunday and due to the urgency of the situation, he asked the next 3 groups if he could play through.
• Congress passed a bill calling for Trump to end the war and passed it on to the Senate, and then Trump will veto it. The Founders gave the President more war powers than any English King since Henry VIII. Congress always says only it can declare war and presidents always say that's just adorable.
• President Trump in Wisconsin Friday said having overthrown Venezuela and the Iran regime sues for peace, that Cuba could be next on his list of conquests. Trump is like the big game hunter clearing space on his trophy room wall for the head of the tiger he plans to kill. The tiger has other ideas.
• President Trump surprised reporters Thursday saying he'd like to meet personally with Iran's the Ayatollah Khameini if they can agree to a peace deal that protects U.S. interests. Personally, I can't predict how the Iran War will turn out. If I had a crystal ball, I'd have to sit down VERY carefully.
• FISA is up for re-authorization by Congress Friday allowing the U.S. government to overhear and collect phone conversations in foreign countries and U.S. conversations with foreign countries. Mexicans are angry. Not only does the U.S. spy on our own citizens, we also spy on our future citizens.
• Hillary Clinton blasted President Trump's decision to build a ballroom on the White House East Wing. She could have post-traumatic stress. Hillary may not realize there's a difference between a president building something new at the White House and banging someone new in the White House.
• Idaho voters go to the polls in November to vote whether to codify the state legislature's recommendation to make English the official state language of Idaho. It's not an easy language to learn. English is what happens when Vikings learn Latin and use it to shout at Germans, and then the French shout back.
• California's Secretary of State said it will take weeks to count the 3 million late-mailed primary ballots cast in Tuesday's election. Independent Spencer Pratt is dipping slightly in the mayoral race in the heavily-leaning Democratic Los Angeles. To turn the tide, he's getting a Nazi tattoo on his chest.
• Red China demanded that the U.S. cancel its $14 billion arms sale to Taiwan. I'm very apprehensive. If World War III erupts with China, I fear that America's Generation Z may have to fight on China's side, because they accepted TikTok's Terms and Conditions without reading them.
• The European Union continued to decline sending troops or ships to the Persian Gulf, instead opting to push diplomacy to end the conflict. In theEurovision national song contest, Bulgaria beat Israel in the finals. In other words, Bomb Bomb Bomb, Bomb Bomb Iran came in second.
• The 2026 FIFA World Cup soccer championship is making final plans to get started June 12th at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles. This week Europeans voted Ronaldo the Most Desirable man in the world. Americans agreed, saluting Ronaldo's chain of burger restaurants with billions served.
• Politico reported that the Democratic Party is being pulled further and further to the Left by new Progressives promising voters free stuff. One candidate is offering Americans $960 a week not to work, free rent, home food delivery and record-low gasoline prices. And so I'm voting for Covid in 2028.
• The Secret Service shot a disturbed gunman who thinks he's Jesus who fired shots at the White House. These are dangerous times. I'm starting to think Trump might propose protecting the U.S. Capitol building with its own ballroom and build a large ice-skating rink to protect the Pentagon.
• President Trump rejected Iran's latest peace proposal that would give Iran control of the Strait of Hormuz and surrender no enriched uranium. They also demanded billions in frozen Iranian cash. Not to be outdone, the Seattle Seahawks just demanded the Lombardi Trophy for losing the Super Bowl.
• Senator Bernie Sanders gave a rousing speech for Maine Democrat Senate candidate Graham Platner. I can now say I've lived long enough to see a Jew who was born during World War II campaign for a guy with a swastika tattooed on his chest. Only Hogan's Heroes was lighter on the Nazis.
• The Los Angeles Times reported that the Sandy Fire in Simi Valley was 40% contained after the week-long blaze consumed 40,000 hillside acres. The Ventura County Fire Department says the Sandy Fire is the largest fire ever recorded in Simi Valley that wasn't started by the Rodney King verdict.
• The WHO reports 177 deaths from Ebola in Africa along with 600 people who show symptoms of the untreatable virus. The State Department just banned everyone from the Congo, Uganda and the Sudan from entering the U.S. Californians have no fear of Ebola unless they hear it's got Gluten in it.
• Hollywood actors called for a boycott of CBS for canceling Stephen Colbert. He hosted a show on a Michigan public access channel the day after his Late Show was canceled. He was so successful in re-creating the magic of his network show that the public access channel has already lost $10 million.
