Being an old guy, I don't care about Gunn, I care about Superman. The preview that I saw looked pretty good. -
DeSantis Suggests Alternative for Musk to Focus His Resources Instead of New Political Party By Mike Miller Elon Musk, declaring the two-party system in America is broken, wasted little time after President Donald Trump on Friday signed his formerly named "One Big Beautiful Bill Act" — a historic, $3.3 trillion spending bill — into law. Musk took to X on Saturday to announce his creation of the "America Party," which he said was a direct response to what he called America's "one-party system, not a democracy." The multibillionaire tech mogul made the announcement after he posted an Independence Day poll on X in which he asked voters if they wanted freedom from the "two-party (some would say uniparty) system." With over 1.2 million votes cast — 65.4 percent of respondents said "yes" — Musk posted Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis is not only among those who question the wisdom of creating a third party; he also suggests what he believes is a better alternative for Musk to focus on if he remains engaged in the political arena: The problem is, when you do another party, especially if you're running on some of the issues that [Musk] talks about, that would end up — if he funds Senate candidates and House candidates in competitive races — that would likely end up meaning the Democrats would win all of the competitive Senate and House races, so ... I don't want to see that happen. DeSantis then suggested what he considers a better alternative for Musk: I think if you want to get involved and hold accountable, you know we do have a problem in the Republican Party with these D.C. congressmen — they always run saying there's out-of-control spending and they're gonna spend less, but they never do it. DeSantis said he believes Musk could have a “monumental impact” by championing two causes that the former DOGE overseer has continually said are important to him: a balanced budget amendment and term limits for members of Congress. “As it is now," DeSantis explained, "even if somehow a third party could elect some people that were so-called fiscal conservative, I don’t think it would even move the needle, even if they got elected. And we know that they wouldn’t get elected because it’s really one of two parties.” https://redstate.com/mike_miller/2025/07/07/desantis-suggests-a-better-place-for-musk-to-focus-his-resources-than-on-a-new-political-party-n2191347

Judge orders release of records pertaining to Freedom Convoy protester’s frozen bank accounts The RCMP and TD Bank must release records related to Evan Blackman’s bank accounts in a ruling that may expose government overreach during the 2022 protests. An Ontario judge ordered that the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) and TD Bank must produce records related to freezing the accounts of a Freedom Convoy protester. In a July 4 press release, the Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms (JCCF) announced that bank records pertaining to the RCMP freezing Freedom Convoy protester Evan Blackman’s accounts are to be released, according to a ruling by the Ontario Court of Justice. “The freezing of Mr. Blackman’s bank accounts was an extreme overreach on the part of the police and the federal government,” lawyer Chris Fleury declared. “These records will hopefully reveal exactly how and why Mr. Blackman’s accounts frozen,” he continued. Blackman was arrested in 2022 during the Freedom Convoy that protested COVID mandates and vaccine passports. In October, his charges of mischief and obstructing police were dismissed due to lack of evidence. However, the crown has since appealed the dismissal, and Blackman will stand trial beginning on August 14. https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/judge-orders-release-of-records-pertaining-to-freedom-convoy-protesters-frozen-bank-accounts/

I also am hoping that it is good. Plan to see it this weekend. Rminder though. -
No. Do not bother You are not honest with your answers. Unlike you I can remember back a few months ago with the 'temporary' raising of tariffs on China, Canada and the EU (50. 60. 90 %) caused the "crash" of the economy" and Wall Street. Oh wait, that lasted all of one week. Remember that ? Go back 40 pages and look, You were trying the same childishness then

"Operation Black Flag": Israel Launches Unprecedented Multi-Port Attack on Yemen by Yair Kleinbaum The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) launched a wave of airstrikes shortly before midnight Sunday, targeting Houthi-controlled seaports in Yemen. The Israeli Air Force is using powerful bombs in its strikes dropping 56 munitions, and striking key targets including a central generator compound at the Port of As-Salif and fuel offloading infrastructure at Ras Issa. Fighter jets struck facilities in Ras Issa, Hudaydah, and As-Salif, following a rare and urgent evacuation warning issued by the IDF in Arabic earlier in the evening. According to reports from Yemen, explosions were heard in Hudaydah and Ras Issa, suggesting that Israeli warplanes hit key logistical and military assets at those locations. https://www.jfeed.com/news/israel-launches-unprecedented-assault-yemen .

Affordable Care Act or Obamacare
B-Man replied to Another Fan's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Thanks, Obama! Turns Out the 'Affordable Care Act' Made Healthcare MORE EXPENSIVE Than Food, Housing Amy Curtis We had to pass Obamacare in 2010 because it was the only thing that would stop healthcare costs from spiraling out of control. Except it didn't. Now, Americans spend more on healthcare than housing and food. {snip} These two things are related: whenever the government subsidizes something, it gets more expensive. Just like education. Men -- single men -- were required to buy insurance plans with maternity coverage so they could pay for some woman's OB-GYN. Because 'fairness' or something. https://twitchy.com/amy-curtis/2025/07/07/ag-hamilton-obamacare-federal-healthcare-spending-n2415328 -

Global warming err Climate change HOAX

Beyond ignorant. MEANWHILE: Democrats retreat on climate: ‘It’s one of the more disappointing turnabouts.’ By Jeremy B. White and Camille von Kaenel SACRAMENTO, California — Donald Trump is coming for California’s signature climate policies — and so is California. Stung by the party’s sweeping losses in November and desperate to win back working-class voters, the Democratic Party is in retreat on climate change. Nowhere is that retrenchment more jarring than in the nation’s most populous state, a longtime bastion of progressive politics on the environment. https://www.politico.com/news/2025/07/07/democrats-climate-retreat-california-energy-00439882?utm_medium=email&utm_source=substack Yes, setting Teslas on fire followed by the mass elite’s jet-powered commute to the Bezos wedding signaled the end of the good old days of radical environmentalism. -

There’s a lot of shady business surrounding the Jeffrey Epstein cover-up. We’ve gone from lists allegedly being reviewed to now supposedly no lists existing at all. Surveillance tapes somehow didn’t work. Prison guards were charged, then quietly had those charges dropped. Future Labor Secretary Alex Acosta gave Epstein a sweetheart deal and then all his emails from that period mysteriously vanished. The list goes on. It’s all too murky to untangle, and we have no real way of knowing which claims are true, which are false, or what really happened in any of these bizarre “coincidences.” But there is one thing that could still be definitively exposed, and it would go a long way toward explaining everything else: How did Jeffrey Epstein actually make his money? If someone could offer a clear, credible explanation—that he was just some brilliant investor who made his fortune through legitimate trading—then maybe, just maybe, the lone-wolf predator theory holds. Maybe he really was just a monster who occasionally let his powerful friends join in. But no one has offered that explanation. Not then, not now. And until they do, the cover-up speaks louder than the silence.
