• The Supreme Court ruled immigrants can't claim protected political asylum indefinitely before they are subject to deportation. Incidentally, the boat people are back. On Friday Cubans who live in New York City boarded boats to risk shark infested waters to escape communism for the second time.
• American Heritage magazine marked the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence by praising the signers for refusing to sell their souls to Parliament. I'm more negotiable. I'm a Baby Boomer, which means I would never sell my soul, but I will cheerfully rent it out for instant gratification.
• New York City elected three anti-Semitic communists posing as Democrats to Congress on Tuesday, throwing the party into turmoil. The city's lost its mind. To reflect New York's new radical pro-Hamas Socialist spirit, Broadway plans to adapt the musicals Damn Yankees, Annie Get Your Gun and Bye, Bye Birdie! and rename them Damn Israelis, Ahmed Get Your Pilot's License and Bye, Bye Skyscraper!
• Caitlyn Clark was sidelined Friday after she was knocked onto her back under the basket and then had a knee planted in her chest while she was punched in the throat, and no foul was called on her assailant. Caitlyn's teammates vow reprisals. The WNBA is giving prison basketball a bad name.
• The World Cup excitement builds this week with the knockout round, with national governments of teams in contention making big offers if they win. If Germany wins, it's free beer and if Mexico wins it'll be free tacos. For old times' sake, Hunter Biden, Charlie Sheen and I are rooting for Colombia.
• Nigeria's soccer team announced that because they failed to qualify for the World Cup in the U.S. they'll send all their fans a full refund for their travel expenses. It's easy to get the refund. All you have to do is send them your bank details and pin number, and they will transfer the money directly.
• The U.S. military and Iran exchanged attacks Friday after Iran attacked a Singapore cargo ship that was sailing inside U.S.-protected shipping lanes. It escalated fast. In response Trump sent the Navy to the Strait of Hormuz to dump all the algae from the Reflecting Pool into Iran's shipping lanes.
• The U.S. State Department announced Saturday it's rushing relief supplies and rescue workers and bulldozers to earthquake-stricken Venezuela. The South American country was rocked by two huge earthquakes the same day that devastated Caracas. CNN says it's still too early to rule out Trump.
• President Trump ordered air strikes on Iran drone and missile storage sites to retaliate for Iran attacking a Singapore cargo ship. Iran's attacks make no sense. Trump's generously giving the Mullahs until the November mid-term election to relocate to Switzerland, they shouldn't press their luck.
• New York Mayor Mamdani risked a constitutional crisis Saturday, saying he would not comply with the Supreme Court ruling that limits temporary asylum seekers' stay in the U.S. Socialists demand open U.S. borders and say illegal migrants just want to live free. All they have to do is qualify for disability.
• The Hollywood Bowl hosted a rap concert by hip-hop artist Chance to celebrate Juneteenth last Friday. I had forgotten that Friday was a federal holiday, and so when I went to the bank and the door was locked, I had to check my phone. I didn't know if the Strait of Hormuz was open or closed.
• Tennessee's governor signed an order naming June to be Nuclear Family Month instead of Pride Month. In addition the Oklahoma Senate has a bill that bans the Rainbow Flag from flying at the state Capitol. And that's odd, considering Oklahoma is the only state named after a Broadway musical.
• New York Democrats held a massive get-out-the vote campaign Tuesday to whip up support for Progressive candidates. Their supporters are on the warpath. My Democratic neighbors in West Hollywood are protesting outside my door because I'm having a reflecting pool built inside my ballroom.
• The Protect College Sports Act in the Senate slaps a salary cap on what schools pay to football stars. It also gives the NCAA power to regulate million-dollar NIL deals. This bill is what inevitably happens when donors give more money to college football programs than to their Senator's re-election campaign.
• President Trump was ridiculed by Democrats about the Lincoln Reflecting Pool algae that even drew pro-algae protestors. Here we go again. The spreading algae bloom is causing such a panic in Washington DC that Dr. Fauci is already denying it came from him taking a leak in the Reflecting Pool.
• The U.S. Senate was lobbied hard to pass his Save America Act which requires Voter ID to vote and a birth certificate to register to vote. The bill faces messy, bi-partisan opposition. People always say that Republicans and Democrats can't work together to get things done, but Jeffrey Epstein IS dead.
• The Senate passed a resolution rebuking Trump's Iran war but it's no curb on the war powers granted Trump by the Constitution. The absolute truth is, nobody was mad at King George III. The Founders gave the U.S. president more war powers than any English King since William the Conqueror.
• A Washington, DC, federal judge ruled against the USDA being allowed to ban the use of EBT grocery cards to buy candy, soft drinks, candy bars, Twinkies and cupcakes. I see the judge's point. It's cruel and unusual punishment for a government to legalize pot and then not provide any munchies.
• European soccer fans in the U.S. for the World Cup say they're thrilled by American hospitality and delicious fast food and Texas barbecues. It's been educational for Americans as well. Until the World Cup teams arrived here I assumed that Moldava was an Internet provider that sold First Ladies.
• Variety reports negotiations to film a Gilligan's Island movie are underway between Warner Bros. and the show creator Sherwood Schwartz's family. Interest in the show has never gone away. In today's episode, Gilligan, the Skipper, the Professor, Mary Ann, Ginger and the Millionaire and his Wife received a note in a bottle warning them to stay on the island because America has gone crazy.
