HEADLINE RUNDOWN

• Justice Neil Gorsuch interview is making the rounds.
• He claims America was founded as a creedal nation.
• Many are in an uproar over that statement.
• I can tell you he is wrong and later I’ll tell you why.
• Project Freedom has come to an end according to POTUS.
• NBC News did report it and so did Politico, the ‘real’ reason it came to a halt wasn’t because POTUS just decided to end it. It was something far bigger.

HEADLINE: Trump says US to pause operation to guide vessels through Strait of Hormuz by Bernd Debusmann Jr and Kathryn Armstrong

• You are starting to see some of the damage that is being done by this attack on Iran from other surrounding countries.
• Stock market and oil prices –
• 100 million barrels just doesn’t go very far.
• Strategic Reserve is almost empty, the ones in Europe down to like 10k.
• What will happen when the reserves are empty and the Strait still isn’t open?
• Some of you have lived through a gas shortage, other listeners have not.
• POTUS is the only one that can bring this to an end.
• He must admit this was a mistake, or just withdraw but every day he sounds crazier and crazier. He has convinced himself that the Iranians were 14 days away from a nuke. He truly believes he has ‘saved the day’ of all humanity.
• I will give you the 30 second analysis of this –
• Let’s pretend the Israel intel was correct and Iran was 14 days away and they were going to deliver it to Israel for example. First you have to get it aboard a rocket powerful enough to get it to the destination. Do they, or did they have one?
• Did he get conned and he can’t admit he made a mistake?
• He was willing to deprive all of the people of Colorado of water because of Boebert and the Epstein Files…so don’t give me this BS of ‘he would never because he LOVES America’. That is just nonsense. He isn’t the man you think he is. He isn’t the man I thought he was.
• This isn’t the actions of a stately president. These are the actions of an egomaniac. This is vindictive and crazy.

BACK TO JOE DOYLE

• The only person endangering Catholics is Donald Trump. His attack on Iran has emboldened the Israelis to invade the last Christian stronghold in the Middle East — Lebanon.
• Since February 28th, the Israelis have killed more than 2,700 Lebanese, and wounded or injured another 8,300, most of them innocent civilians.
• Did you know, while I’m on the subject here, the oldest known mention of Saint George is in a church which dates to the 4th century guess where? In Syria!
• We have learned that the Israelis have demolished a convent and a school, administered by the Salvatorian Sisters, in the Lebanese village of Yaroun.
• How did the American people get so brainwashed that the people in the sovereign nation state of Israel were somehow our most holy and Christian allies?
• They aren’t and they NEVER have been. They aren’t the holy people we were told about.
• These people don’t believe Our Lord is Lord.
• We can stop making them most favored nation.
• We can stop passing stupid laws about not being able to criticize Israel.
• New Orleans and Louisiana was a FRENCH colony, we have NOTHING in common with the Israeli’s. So why do they have most favored nation status? Why wouldn’t LA make a deal like that with the French? We have a lot more in common with them than Israel.
• Conservative Catholics have a decision to make!
• Joe Doyle always defends the faith and the faithful at every turn, pray for him and for more men like him.
• They must decide whether they are going to defend the Vicar of Christ when he is upholding long established Catholic just war doctrine, or whether they are going to remain silent when bigots, heretics and a non-Catholic political leader defame him.
• It is becoming quite apparent, that even though there are Catholics, if you count SCOTUS Justices, that is a 6-3 majority of Catholics on the Supreme Court, nothing could or should make it through that court if they were contrary to God’s law and faithful to His teachings.
• The Trump administration has posted official documents that praise Catholicism but look at how he actually acts and the things he posts that we know HE his posting.

GAS PRICES

• They are not going down anytime soon.
• Apparently it is the people of Pakistan and the leadership that are the cooler heads in the room.
• WTI Crude is at $91.
• At $91 or $92 a barrel, that price is what you are paying right now, lock it in.
• Have you noticed the prices at the grocery store are still rising?

HEADLINE: California farmers to destroy 420,000 peach trees following Del Monte bankruptcy by Susana Guerrero

• Did you know Del Monte was going bankrupt?
• Central California farmers are expected to gain up to $9 million in federal aid to help remove 420,000 clingstone peach trees following the closure of Del Monte Foods’ canneries earlier this year. 
• Del Monte permanently closed its Modesto and Hughson canneries in April after filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy last July. The factory closures left hundreds of workers without a job while also leaving farmers in dire straits as they navigated what to do with their crops. In March, the Sacramento Bee reported that many Central California farmers had their 20-year contracts to grow peaches with Del Monte canceled while facing a $550 million loss in revenue. 
• I interviewed a young man Leo Zacky at the TPUSA event in Tampa last year. He was running for California Governor he too was from a farm.
• The USDA had approved their request to pay California farmers to remove around 3,000 acres of clingstone peach trees before the harvest season. According to the news release, removing 50,000 tons of peaches from production could help growers save about $30 million in losses. 
• Is there no other way to solve this problem?
• So these farmers will get a bailout.
• What caused Del Monte to file for bankruptcy?
• Del Monte Foods filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in July 2025 due to a combination of high debt, pandemic-era inventory issues, rising operational costs, and declining consumer demand for canned goods in favor of fresh produce. This financial strain led to the 2026 closure of major California plants and a sale of its assets to new owners.

AUDIO/VIDEO: Justice Gorsuch – How do you get somebody hooked on an idea? And I think facts and figures you know are alright. They’re 13% and 18%…whatever, kinda don’t speak to us the way stories do. That’s how we relate to one another. I want to know your story and you want to know mine, that’s how we learn. We figure if you are going to get interested in the Stamp Act, and if you get interested in the Articles of Confederation, it might be because of the people behind them. the 56 signers were incredibly interesting people and their stories are moving. we forget the revolution was 8 bloody years. 1/3 of the signers had their homes destroyed. Many gave their fortunes and died for the revolution. We hope this might inspire a few young minds. The torch passes to each generation. We are a creedal nation. We’re united in a belief in those ideals in the Declaration of Independence. That’s our mission statement as a country and if the people don’t get inspired to lear about them and believe in them, then the baton drops.

• Is he right?
• He didn’t give the 3 ideas in that clip so let me give them to you.
• This was called a pillage and this happened during that time, it was war. You confiscated property. This part of what he is saying is 100% true.

1. Life

2. Liberty

3. Pursuit of Happiness

• Interestingly enough that is NOT Jefferson’s phrase.
• Jefferson left out and Mason the wisest man, there is a difference between a blanket universal right to those 3 and one that comes along with these being reserved for citizens.
• The system of law and hierarchy from medieval Europe.
• The English get all the credit because they established the East coast.
• But where they the only ones here? No of course not.
• People seem to forget the English weren’t the only empire.
• There was a rule of law and questions were asked about citizenship.
• Two ways – law of soil and law of blood.
• Law of Soil – provide for birthright citizenship, this is NOT what we have.
• Law of Blood – naturalized citizenry, this is what we have.
• The FIRST Act Congress ever passed was THIS LAW!
• The Founders were STILL ALIVE AT THIS TIME!

NATIONALITY ACT OF 1790

• Be  it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America, in Congress assembled, That any Alien being a free white person, who shall have resided within the limits and under the jurisdiction of the United States for the term of two years, may be admitted to become a citizen thereof on application to any common law Court of record in any one of the States wherein he shall have resided for the term of one year at least, and making proof to the satisfaction of such Court  that he is a person of good character, and taking the oath or affirmation prescribed by law to support the Constitution of the United States, which Oath or Affirmation such Court shall administer, and the Clerk of such Court shall record such Application, and the proceedings thereon; and thereupon such person shall be considered as a Citizen of the United States.
• This cannot be any more clear. When Alito and Thomas and et al, they have to start HERE! This is as close to ratification they can get.
• If you came here from Somalia or swam the Rio Grande, you are not a citizen. You can be made a naturalized citizen.
• Are there any questions on this?

NOW LET’S DISCUSS THE CHILDREN OF THE 1790 ACT

• And the children of such person so naturalized, dwelling within the United States, being under the age of twenty one years at the time of such naturalization, shall also be considered as citizens of the United States.  And the children of citizens of the United States that may be born beyond Sea, or out of the limits of the United States, shall be considered as natural born Citizens:  Provided, that the right of citizenship shall not descend to persons whose fathers have never been resident in the United States . . .

SUPPORTING THE POPE

• Who thinks that I would come on these airways and would support anything outside of Catholic moral teaching?
• If that makes you fly toward the exits, so be it, I cannot assist you in your horrible hearing.
• That is NOT what I said, back the tape up before you fire off a nasty email when you are 100% in the wrong.

AUDIO/VIDEO: Rick Sanchez on Strait of Hormuz – Iranians Control MORE of the Strait – What we wanted to do was show you the expansion of the new Strait of Hormuz area. As it’s now being contained by the Iranians. For them this is pivotal. They have control of the Persian Gulf. They expanded that control and there is a tactical reason why they did this. See this city Fujairah? See this oil pipeline? This is the UAE’s way of getting oil out without traveling through the Strait. What the Iranians have done is expand their controlled area to go beyond where that pipeline is. They control even more of the output now. On top of that they are using drones and missiles immediately when Trump announced Project Freedom.

AUDIO/VIDEO: Jeff Currie on Oil Shortage vs Deficit –

• So why does the United States with all the oil we have be in a deficit?
• Real people better really start talking about this and putting the pressure on the Trump administration on this.
• This will all end in tears if this isn’t addressed.

AUDIO/VIDEO: President Donald Trump in Oval Office – Oil Prices – The stock market is higher now, than when we started this war. I thought oil prices would go up to $200 to $250 dollars but it’s at $100 now. You’re surprised, I’m surprised…even if it went to $200 it would have been worth it.

• There is so much wrong with that statement.
• You thought oil would go to $200 or $250 and you were fine with that? Are you mad Mr President?
• Spoken like a true elite that has never filled up a gas tank before. Someone that has never had to worry about the price of gas.

AUDIO/VIDEO: Tucker Carlson – Rep Thomas Massie Interview Introduction – Thomas Massie is a better standard bearer for Tumpism, the America First ideology that Donald Trump ran on, 3 times, than Donald Trump is. He has not changed. Moreover he is a thoroughly decent man. He is self reliant, he is in short the American they told us we should aspire to be. He in the end if all things crumble he can take care of himself and his family. That is Thomas Massie. That isn’t fake, that’s real. He is the man you want your son to be. You would think that makes him the person that the Republicans would back. How did he become the #1 person the Trump administration wants to destroy? How did that happen?

AUDIO/VIDEO: Rep Thomas Massie with Tucker Carlson – Trump Abandoned MAGA – You know when I endorsed him I thought that we wouldn’t have a new war. I thought that we would get warrants for FISA that they had used to spy on him. I thought that MAHA would be front and center at HHS with Bobby Kennedy there. I thought we would have sane foreign policy. I thought we would put American Firs, that’s my definition of sanet. I thought we would end our involvement in the war in Ukraine. I thought we would release all the Epstein files and indict some of those SOB’s. Those are all the things I’m still fighting for.

AUDIO/VIDEO: Rep Thomas Massie with Tucker Carson – Epstein Files & MTG – Three women signed their names on that discharge position and they all suffered. MTG and her children got death threats, not just her but her children too. He told her if she followed through she was going to hurt his friends. Some of them have been hurt like Howard Lutnik. It turns out John Paulson, was in Epstein’s phonebook and did a fundraiser to honor Lutnik. It is a really small world when you get into the billionaires. They don’t associate themselves w/ Rep or Dems. That’s, my hats off to MTG. They took Boebert to the Situation Room and tried to get her to take her name off the petition. The president vetoed a bill that would bring water to a large portion of Colorado water. Why are people in Colorado deprived of water b/c their rep wanted to expose a sex trafficking ring?

• In the crisis of the US/Israel relationship, a lot of these tech companies will have issues or be scrutinized more closely.
• The best reporting up until now has been from Drop Site News.

• Body cams are hackable.

HEADLINE: So What’s Going On With the Axon Bodycams? by Arthur Bloom

• What happens when a criminal can tack a cop just by their body cams?
• I think some of this stuff will come out because just looking at how the DOJ has been handling this cartel stuff.
• The real story of Fast and Furious –
• Most cops are NOT dishonest so the only way to keep a deal like that is with some sort of control over the technology.
• DOJ handling the pace of it – rolling out case after case of cartels.
• Axon is also where Carbyne, the Israeli emergency response company, got its exit. Carbyne was scrutinized fairly closely because of its ties to Ehud Barack and Jeffrey Epstein, but has all these king-shit people from the security tech business attached to it, like Peter Thiel—it was Founders Fund’s first Israeli investment—and Michael Chertoff, the latter being a board member.
• The public has asked for part of the social contract to include police wearing bodycams. I think that’s fair enough, and recent controversies have shown it protects the cops as much as suspects who might have their civil liberties violated. But that deal isn’t fair to the police if, first of all, the cameras allow the cops to be tracked by criminals, and second, if they’re a vehicle for all this foreign security tech as well.

BACK TO BLOOM

• How do we want the US/Israel relationship to be?
• Should we have to bail them out when they get ahead of themselves?
• Come October there is an Israeli election.
• It was announced 2 weeks ago, Netanyahu’s two opponents tend to work together to throw him out.
• They are trying to pander to the hawk vote as one is obliged to do in Israel.
• The question I am thinking about right now, is how do you force the Israeli electorate to recalibrate their expectations?
• American politicians are still running with unlimited indulgence so Israel is running with it too.
• I think on the way out, so let’s just assume we are right that the next is Marco Rubio, what happens to Musk when Rubio runs on China? How does Rubio treat Musk? Probably not so gently. Musk has the China issue, a few Russian issues…Rubio won’t be so nice to him.
• Does Trump turn hard against Musk before leaving office or does Trump pardon Elon before leaving?

Follow her on X – @MahgdalenRose

• The person that suffers the most of this war is Marco Rubio.
• He can’t just say “I was doing what Trump aka POTUS told me to do.”
• What about this naturalized and birthright citizenship before SCOTUS?
• Rubio and Cruz will be disqualified if that goes the way is should go.
• Marco was born in the US but 2 year before his father was granted citizenship.
• Ted Cruz has zero shot.
• The hatred of Vivek is real. It is odd we would play around with a seat like that in Ohio. He is arrogant and rude and hates the fundamental idea of jocks and cheerleaders. I was more of a nerd than either of this but I don’t hate the fundamental basis of American culture and I’m not running for Governor of Ohio.

THOMAS MASSIE/TUCKER CARLSON INTERVIEW

• Thomas Massie dropped some major information in that interview.
• What he did to Boebert and Colorado is horrible and petty, gangster quality stuff from Trump.
• I am not surprised by this.
• He made it clear he really didn’t care about anyone.
• I do think that some times, we had to make a decision as a party to go back to Trump.
• There were a lot of betrayals in his first presidency.
• The hole he is getting gets deeper and deeper.
• That comment about $200 a barrel really threw me.
• If you are a MAGA bot, look dude, I understand we have to live with this another few years, but I don’t have to support what he is doing when it is wrong.
• This just isn’t going well.
• I am tired of hearing “Don’t betray Trump” and it doesn’t matter anymore.
• Stop pretending this is all okay.
• He hasn’t fulfilled anything he promised on his campaign trail. NOT ONE THING. No one has been arrested, very few deportations and it was all a bait and switch.

AUDIO/VIDEO: Rep Thomas Massie with Tucker Carlson – Glyphosate and Wheat – They spray it on ripe wheat to dry it out before they harvest it. Like this is the food you are going to eat. The next step is to grind it and bake it into bread. They are just one step away from you eating it and they are spraying it with glyphosate the whole plant so that it will die quickly and dry out quickly and save them some money and get that crop 4 days earlier into that land. That has been in Europe but not here in the US. It is only used on 3% they say, then why don’t we just grow something else at that place like soybeans or whatever.

• There is a guy that lives in my subdivision right here, I started noticing his front yard was dying. The grass was turning brown and dying. He sprayed his entire yard with Round-Up to kill it so he can plant new grass a different variety.

EDUCATION SYSTEM

• There is an erasing of the conquering of Europe, that is on purpose.
• When they look and see what they are facing now, they just don’t get it.
• Europe has been conquered before but they see this as a post war world and that battle lines have been drawn already.

AUDIO/VIDEO: Rep Thomas Massie with Tucker Carlson – Epstein Suicide – You know when the probability of Epstein killing himself went from 5% to 0% was when I hear the recording of Ehud Barak, when he was about to leave as defense minister of Israel. Epstein was advising him on his next career steps. In this recording, just cool as a cucumber, Epstein says make a list of everyone that owes you something for all the things you did for them while you were in government, then go get on these boards, and draw a check. He was explaining how Ehud Barak could make money once he left he employ of the government of Israel. It’s an insight into Jeffrey Epstein’s mind that you don’t really get otherwise, even through emails. It was revealing to me. Epstein strikes me as the kind of guy who would’t be that worried that he was in prison. I think in his mind, it was a temporary condition and he either needed to blackmail somebody or more likely than blackmail, he just had enough connections that somebody would spring him pretty soon.

• Who’s presidency did that happen under?
• You suppress the information of the documents then he commits suicide under your watch? This was insane. He was president at the time, he wasn’t in New York but that does’t matter.

IRAN WAR

• They are now calling this a war and this is well beyond the 60 days.
• Congress remains silent on this which should be alarming to every American.
• The fact the world is at the mercy of the United States Navy….

9:31am *

SHORT

PROVE ME WRONG

• The whole Fox news girl thing has been a psyop.
• They aren’t victims, they are there on purpose and chose to be there.
• Go in knowing it is an endless pageant with some time pertinent news and stock updates.

HEADLINE: How Women Have Led to the Erasure of Women by Jennifer Galardi

• Modern feminists see women as victims of a patriarchal culture, even though women outnumber and often outperform men in universities, medical school, and many white-collar vocations. Feminism turned “woman” into another marginalized identity and made women eager allies of other so-called oppressed groups based on race, sexuality, gender identity, and class. This intersectional fight against more traditional values manifested itself in popular culture.
• The shift in culture and attitudes around sex and sexuality has propelled many women to refuse to accept the sexual and reproductive differences between men and women (see Jennifer Siebel Newsom), as well as their distinctive roles in a family. According to modern feminists, marriage and motherhood are traps created by men, not gifts granted by God. Familial duties are restrictive and demeaning.
• The erasure of women will not stop until women stop participating in it. Reclaiming womanhood means defending embodied reality, motherhood, and the truth that women are not interchangeable—and never were.
