News is what a chap who doesn’t care much about anything wants to read. And it’s only news until he’s read it. After that it’s dead. — Evelyn Waugh (“Scoop”)

@MattWalshBlog Here is what Nolan said to Time Magazine regarding his decision to put rapper Travis Scott in the film as a bard. "I cast him because I wanted to nod towards the idea that this story has been handed down as oral poetry, which is analogous to rap..."

Not one person on the planet actually thinks that Lupita Nyong’o is “the most beautiful woman in the world.” But Christopher Nolan knows that he would be called racist if he gave “the most beautiful woman” role to a white woman. Nolan is technically talented but a coward. Too afraid to do anything that even slightly challenges the spirit of the age.

@TIME Wow. I thought Time magazine died years ago due to complications related to a massive decline in readership and advertising revenues because they publish shit like this. JFC.

TIME’s new cover: ‘The Odyssey’ is arguably the biggest film of Christopher Nolan’s career. It may also be the summer blockbuster the entertainment industry needs right now time.com/article/2026/0…

I will not go and see Christopher Nolan’s "The Odyssey", not even from a critical perspective. I am a cinephile, and I know Nolan is an excellent director, but he deserves to be sanctioned. 🛑 Anyone who obeys the new woke norms no longer deserves our money. This must become a habit, a trend: these deeply harmful films that degrade our image internationally must fail at the box office. Let’s launch this operation: who will NOT go to the cinema to see this spit in the face of our civilization? Let millions of us boycott it. Share if you agree. I am not asking this to create buzz for myself, but because I WANT this film to fail.

For more than 50 years, the Southern Poverty Law Center has endeavored to protect those most vulnerable to hate, safeguard communities, and advance the principle that every person in this country deserves dignity and equal treatment. We are living through a broader moment that demands we name what we are seeing. The organizations and institutions that protect our democracy are under sustained and coordinated pressure. There is a documented pattern of the federal government threatening nonprofit organizations, law firms, and even public servants who disagree with the current administration, a pattern that courts have rebuked repeatedly. And as with law firms and universities, financial institutions and other intermediaries critical to charitable work now appear to be acting out of intimidation. When donor-advised fund sponsors preemptively decline to process contributions to civil rights organizations, the effect is no different from any other form of targeted pressure. It chills free speech and erodes our democracy. As funders committed to democracy, justice, and the long-term health of civil society, we boldly stand with the Southern Poverty Law Center and with the broader civil rights community. We will continue to resource organizations defending rights and freedoms. And we will continue to call out the difference between legitimate accountability and the use of government power to silence critics. Our democracy depends on a vibrant civil society and the freedom to organize, advocate, litigate, and express alternative points of view. We will not back down from the defense of our most vital freedoms. This moment calls for a united voice. We hope you will join us.

@mdubowitz Exactly. I simply do not understand why @POTUS and @SecRubio have allowed the radical Pakistanis to serve as some sort of "neutral mediator" in our conflict with Iran. They are not our friends in any way.

Pakistan is Iran’s lawyer not a mediator. That it shielded Iran’s military aircraft from US and Israeli forces should not be a surprise. Islamabad long played a double game in our war against al-Qaeda, the Taliban and other Islamist terrorists. Pakistan is an Islamist state.
Jennifer Jacobs@JenniferJJacobs

Scoop via @CBSNews: As Pakistan positioned itself as a diplomatic conduit between Tehran and Washington, it quietly allowed Iranian military aircraft to park in its country, potentially shielding them from US airstrikes, sources told @JimLaPorta and me. Days after Trump announced the ceasefire in early April, Tehran sent multiple aircraft to Pakistan Air Force Base Nur Khan. Among the military hardware was an Iranian Air Force RC-130, a reconnaissance and intelligence-gathering variant of the Lockheed C-130 Hercules tactical transport aircraft. cbsnews.com/news/pakistan-…

@ZaidJilani Hitchens was, of course, a critic of Israel for much of his life. But in the end, he also had no illusions about Islam and its incompatibility with Western Civilization. Which is one of many reasons that he was an absolute legend. youtube.com/watch?v=0EYg8T…

The true tell of course is that this was published in "opinion" — requiring a much lower standard for accuracy If the New York Times really had the goods on such explosive allegations, they would have run this in the news section — like the much more exhaustively documented "Screams Without Words"

🚨 LMFAO!! Rabid CNN leftist Leigh McGowan goes BERSERK MELTDOWN after she’s told Spencer Pratt is “common sense and normal” *Visibly angry* “I am so exhausted of being surrounded by this level of IDIOCY!” 🤣 “This is the opposite of common sense. This is so embarrassing.” ”I'm so sick of having politicians come in here with zero experience telling us they're going to fix everything. Have we learned nothing?!” We’ve actually learned people like @spencerpratt are BEST suited for situations like this! Keep the whining going, it only proves he’s winning! 🔥 H/t @TVNewsNow

Left-wing voices like Hasan Piker openly call for the blood of “f***ing capitalists,” while Mayor Mamdani films viral videos targeting billionaires blocks from where UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson was assassinated. I can understand why wealthy people are on edge. When you constantly demonize successful people as the enemy, it isn't shocking when someone decides to act on it.

Lydia met le doigt sur quelque chose que personne ne veut nommer clairement : on est entré dans la phase rhétorique pré-violence du cycle communiste classique. Le script est documenté, archivé, et il se répète à l'identique depuis un siècle. Avant chaque massacre de masse perpétré au nom du marxisme, il y a toujours 5 à 15 ans de désignation publique d'une catégorie de personnes comme "l'ennemi à abattre". Pas un débat sur des politiques publiques. Pas une critique d'inégalités. Une déshumanisation méthodique d'une classe entière. En URSS dans les années 1920, c'étaient les koulaks. Lénine écrit dès 1918 qu'il faut "exterminer les koulaks en tant que classe", expression reprise mot pour mot par Staline dix ans plus tard. Résultat : 4 millions de paysans déportés, plusieurs millions morts dans le Holodomor. En Chine maoïste, c'étaient les propriétaires terriens et les "ennemis de classe". Mao orchestre les "séances de lutte" publiques où les voisins, les enfants, les anciens employés sont obligés de dénoncer, humilier, frapper. Bilan de la réforme agraire seule : 1 à 2 millions d'exécutions, sans compter ce qui suit. Au Cambodge, c'étaient les "nouveaux peuples" : citadins, intellectuels, gens portant des lunettes. La propagande khmère rouge les a désignés pendant des années comme des parasites avant qu'on ne les massacre. 1,7 million de morts en 4 ans. Maintenant regardez ce qui se passe aux États-Unis en 2026. Hasan Piker, qui touche des millions de jeunes hommes sur Twitch, parle ouvertement du "sang des f***ing capitalists". Pas en 1968 dans une cellule trotskiste, en 2026 sur la plateforme la plus regardée par les 18-25 ans. Zohran Mamdani, élu maire de New York, filme des vidéos virales devant les immeubles de milliardaires, exactement à l'endroit où Brian Thompson, CEO de UnitedHealthcare, a été assassiné l'an dernier par Luigi Mangione. Ce dernier a été transformé en icône pop par une partie de la gauche américaine en moins de 48 heures. Tee-shirts, fan art, romantisation du meurtrier. Ce n'est pas de la "passion politique". C'est la phase 1 du protocole. La désignation publique d'une catégorie d'humains comme légitimement haïssable, suivie de la valorisation de ceux qui passent à l'acte. La réaction "normale" d'une démocratie saine devrait être l'isolement social et professionnel immédiat de ces voix. Ce qui se passe : ils ont des podcasts en tête des charts, des élus, et une couverture médiatique bienveillante. L'histoire ne bégaie pas. Elle copie-colle. Et les premières victimes sont toujours surprises de découvrir, trop tard, que le discours qu'elles trouvaient "un peu excessif mais bon" était en fait l'avertissement clair qu'on leur préparait une fosse. Lydia a raison de le dire. Et elle aura encore plus raison dans cinq ans quand on relira ces tweets.

I’m no expert on golden calves, but in my limited experience of such matters and in my reading of history: When people proclaim, “Let me say this plainly: this is not a golden calf”…it’s probably a golden calf.
Pastor Mark Burns@pastormarkburns

Today at Trump National Doral Miami, history was made. I was deeply honored to lead the dedication event for President Donald J. Trump and the unveiling of the 22-foot statue created in his honor. This was far more than a ribbon cutting. It was a moment of gratitude, honor, and remembrance. Let me say this plainly: this is not a golden calf. We worship the Lord Jesus Christ and Him alone. This statue is not about worship. It is about honor. It is a celebration of life and a powerful symbol of resilience, freedom, patriotism, courage, and the will to keep fighting for America. It also reminds us of the hand of God over President Trump’s life. We thank God for preserving him and not allowing his life to be taken, not once, but multiple times. What happened today was more than an unveiling. It was a visible sign of a movement that continues to spread across America and around the world. I was honored to serve as President Trump’s main point of contact throughout this process, and I am deeply grateful for the trust placed in me. I want to thank Ash, Dustin Stockton, Brock Pierce, Hershey Friedman, Yaakov Filitchkin, Sam, Jack, and the 6,000+ Patriots who gave, prayed, supported, and made this historic moment possible. Thank you to the Trump Doral team for your hospitality, professionalism, and excellence. And thank you, President Donald J. Trump, for calling me today and speaking directly to the crowd. We are forever grateful. God bless President Trump. God bless the Patriot movement. God bless America. 🇺🇸 #TrumpStatueDedication #PresidentTrump #TrumpDoral #AmericaFirst #FaithFamilyFreedom #PatriotMovement

After CBS embarrassed Karen Bass by fact-checking her debate lies about the Palisades Fire, they clearly got the call. CBS filmed with me on my burned out lot for over an hour, and they turned it over to Karen Bass’ PR team to edit it into a comical 5 minute hit piece with clips from the Hills. They can’t beat my ideas, they can’t beat me in the debates, so they gotta try to turn my campaign into a sideshow. People are done with these skeezy political tricks, and I’m done with CBS. They’ll never get a word from me for my next 8 years as mayor. Adios! What outlet should I have in their absence?
