Ukraine seems to be another Chech World War Two style sell-out.

Trump and Putin to Hold Joint Press Conference After Alaska Summit - WSJ

Once again, it's becoming clearer and clearer that Putin-Trump is a replay of Chamberlain-Hitler (the disaster of "peace in our time.")

Russia's pressure, regardless of any agreement they may sell out Ukraine with, will be unrelenting.

Guided by recent, post-Korean War American history of, essentially, becoming tired of "foreign entanglements," our presence there will gradually become weaker while Putin's will become increasingly stronger.

At the end of World War 2, most of the war criminals were hunted down and executed. If this is to become the "end" of the Ukraine invasion, the contrasting outcome will become impossible to overlook.

I have been warning against rewarding Putin with any tangible gain from his massacre. Tens of thousands of unpunished war crimes of every imaginable description? No problem. As if they didn't exist.

Billions in damages caused directly by Putin? Who's going to pick up the tab for that? (Hint: it won't be Vlad)

And, of course, Vlad will require a complete lifting of any of the nonsensical sanctions against the former Soviet Union. (I've always known (and have repeatedly stated) that the sanctions Biden imposed would have zero impact on the outcomes in Ukraine: those in power wouldn't notice them. Those who lost yachts, businesses and bank accounts will either get them back or be 'adequately' compensated for their temporary discomfort. Bank accounts will be unfrozen.)

What's the catch phrase of the company that fixes damages to homes and businesses hit by fire or flooding?

"Like it never even happened."

The civilians Vlad slaughtered will remain dead. The women and children victimized by his Armies will remain sexually violated. The buildings and homes destroyed will remain wrecked until the West (including the US) starts writing checks.

Rewarding the 21st Century's REAL version of Hitler (unlike the delusional leftist version that blew up in the left's face last November) for slaughter, maiming, rape, robbery and destruction will be, if not THE biggest mistake of this century, among the top 2.

It will embolden him. It will embolden Xi. America will do what it's always done since the Korean War: Get tired of the hassle and go home.

Putin will take the opportunity to rearm, retrain and rebuild his military, now weaker than they've ever been since World War Two. He'll turn the Black Sea into a Russian lake.

And having done that, he will (not "might," WILL) begin to invade neighboring countries, including NATO countries, because, why shouldn't he? WE won't do anything about it... and his violations of international law and human rights that leftist claim to be so concerned about will go out the window.

Again.

Past, it has been said, is prologue. It is clear that in this matter of foreign policy; few (if any) of the people around Trump or his SecState, Rubio, are pointing out this reality.

Dividing up Ukraine smacks of dividing up Poland, which, come to think of it, was divided up WITH the then Soviet Union.

That, effectively, is what seems to be about to happen here. And how did that work out for everyone involved, not least of all, the Poles?

Another classic example of "penny wise... pound foolish."

Rewarding dictators for invading doesn't quite send the message that needs to be sent. It's the equivalent of freeing a convicted murder-robbery convict and giving them the money they stole in the process.

This isn't rocket science. An "agreement" with Putin makes as much senses as past nuclear weapon agreements with Iran.

And the most painful part of this is: the people in charge KNOW ALL OF THIS.

And they're going to do it anyway.

Democrat shucking and jiving over Texas redistricting. Why are they lying?

Leftist governors have their panties in a bunch over Texas redistricting.

Good luck with that.

Leftists have already gerrymandered California to the point that it's a punchline to a political joke.

And if these scum believe that doing their own increased skullduggery will result in more democrat seats in California and New York and other states, then why did those Texas legislators bail to Illinois, to stop Texas redistricting?

You'd think they'd WANT California and the other leftist Soviet states to engage in this game playing.

The California Used Car Salesman and Chief

After all, sacrificing 5 or so seats in Texas to gain dozens more from other leftist states makes perfect political sense when you think about it.

As usual, leftist math ain't mathing.

To hear the leftists scum like Gavin Newsom tell it, they can whack even more GOP seats out of existence.

Here's the dirty little leftist secret:

If Newsom, et al, COULD do that?

They'da already done it. And it's not like this huckster ain't above lying.

St. Louis soccer fan removed from game. Why? He was wearing a "Make America Great Again" hat

 Yet another sign of leftist hated and discrimination.

It appears the St. Louis CITY SC wants some sort of partnership with Bud Light.

A guy was tossed out of a soccer game for committing the cardinal sin of wearing a "Make America Great Again" hat to a MLS level soccer game in St. Louis.

The explanation was that it "might offend someone" and that "political expression is not allowed in the stadium," unless it's, say, a "gay pride" or "trans pride" flag.

I've read elsewhere that DOJ is investigating this obvious violation of this guy's civil rights. One can hope. One also ponders the question if this type of arbitrary rule is enforced at all Major League Soccer (MLS) facilities, including the Portland Soviet's under the same conditions (because you know the place is covered with gay/trans/Fakestinian flags, pins, hats, etc.) and if their reaction would be the same.

Imagine the outrage if someone wearing a Harris or Biden ANYTHING was treated this way. There'd likely be riots.... not that the left needs excuses to riot.

This is the entire episode. See for yourself.

WARNING: Offensive violence and pictures - Cincinnati city councilor proves she is unfit for elective office.

In yet another portrait of leftist hate and racial bigotry, A Cincinnati city councilor has proven she is unfit for elective office.

Imagine a role-reversal here. Imagine Cincinnati City Councilmember Victoria Parks was the victim. Imagine her attackers being a gang of white thugs.

Imagine if any white elected official of any major elected position... even a Donald Trump... came out and said that Parks had "begged for that beat down."

Riots would have overtaken the entire country, not that leftists and racists need an excuse to riot, burn, loot, murder and rob.

This is a video of the horrific attack on a couple who are white. Nearly beaten to death while cell phones recorded it but no one intervened.

Because... 2025. Because racism. Because savagery. Because entitlement. Because inculcated racist animus. Because blacks killing each other or whites is merely an accepted major part of life in the United States today.

Plainly, the Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett disease is not just a localized case. Victoria Parks is infested with the same variety of hatred Crockett shows on a daily basis.

A total and complete breakdown of the dregs of black society.

One can only wonder what Parks' thoughts might be, her despicable racist bigotry aside, if someone, or some group of someones who happen to be Caucasian, treated her the way she suggests Holly, the woman in this beat down, deserved to be treated?

Like all leftists, she runs on hatred. While I don't wish any such injury on anyone for any reason, it is clear she's unfit for public office.

WARNING: THIS VIDEO CONTAINS VIOLENCE AND RACISM THAT IS OFFENSIVE.

Wads of panties are in a bunch over Colbert's cancellation.

Even Seattle's fringe-left toad, Rep. Payapal had to get involved, whining, “People deserve to know if this is a politically motivated attack on free speech,” Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-Washington) wrote on X."

Nonsense, of course. Payapal has no say and is, of course, politically irrelevant. CBS does not have to explain their business decisions to anyone, not least of all a fringe-left back bencher.

The article, being from the leftist WaPo, naturally neglects to mention at any point that Greg Gutfeld's "Gutfeld" show became number one in late night over a year ago.

Here's the reality: a hack like Colbert automatically results in at least half the viewership of US television ignoring his show. His attacks show a deep-seated hatred of Trump, which is an accurate reflection of the typical leftists in this country today, as they've been dutifully programmed to thrive on hatred.

Here's the truth of it:

As of the second quarter of 2025, Greg Gutfeld's show leads in ratings with an average of 3.289 million viewers, while Stephen Colbert's show averages 2.417 million viewers.

Current Ratings Overview

Greg Gutfeld (Gutfeld!):

Total Viewers: Averaged 3.289 million viewers in the second quarter of 2025.

Key Demographic (25-54): Approximately 238,000 viewers.

Year-on-Year Growth: Gutfeld's show saw a 31.5% increase in total viewers compared to the previous year, although it was down 9% from the first quarter of 2025.

Key Demographic (25-54): Approximately 219,000 viewers.

Performance: Colbert's show was the only one to show a slight increase of 1% over the first quarter of 2025.

Comparative Insights

Gutfeld! has established itself as the dominant force in late-night television, significantly outperforming Colbert in total viewership. This trend reflects a broader shift in audience preferences towards Gutfeld's style of satirical commentary and humor.

Colbert, while trailing in total viewers, remains a strong competitor, particularly in the 18-49 demographic, where he has shown resilience against other late-night shows.

Conclusion

The ratings battle between Gutfeld and Colbert highlights the evolving landscape of late-night television, with Gutfeld currently leading the pack. As viewer preferences continue to shift, both shows will likely adapt their content to maintain and grow their audiences.
