Some events from around the nation:
New York:
Usually the winner of the Democrat primary is elected mayor in the general election. That might happen this November as there are three candidates who could split the no-Mamdani vote:
Incumbent Mayor Eric Adams, former governor Andrew Cuomo and Republican nominee Curtis Sliwa.
Democrat nominee Zohran Mamdani invited the titans of New York’s business community (and also America’s) to a meeting. The New Post reports who had “scheduling conflicts” and could NOT meet with the communist nominee:
- Jamie Dimon, CEO of JP Morgan, America’s largest bank
- Steve Schwarzman, CEO of private equity powerhouse Blackstone
- Brian Moynihan, head of Bank of America, America’s second largest bank
- Larry Fink, CEO of Blackrock, the world’s largest asset manager
- David Solomon, CEO of investment banking giant Goldman Sachs

Tennessee: Harboring ILLEGAL ALIENS in the Volunteer State has now become harder. Senate Bill 392, which Republican Governor Bill Lee signed in May, went into effect on July 1. “Sanctuary sympathizers” — from landlords to business owners to someone acting on their own — who KNOWINGLY harbor ILLEGAL ALIENS in exchange for rent or services face a Class E felony (up to six years in prison and fines up to $3,000). If they are harboring children under 13, it jumps to a Class A felony with a much higher sentence. Of course, a coalition of liberal organizations are seeking to stop the law.
Utah: The left’s focus on mental illness (aka pride month) had fewer flags flying in Utah since it was the first state to prohibit flying LGBTQ+ flags. Republican Governor Spencer Cox signed the law that now fines state or local government buildings $500 a day for flying any flag other than the United States flag, the Utah state flag, military flags or flags from a short list approved by lawmakers.
Washington: In a state where rioters are given a free pass they charged with a "felony", and have now convicted, a Republican election observer for refusing to wear a mask while watching ballot counting during the 2024 election. His is the first of two cases to go to trial.
Buyer's Market: With interest rates still high, it is a buyer’s market with some areas suffering from a glut of homes for sale. From the National Association of Realtors, nationwide, the number of homes for sale is up 28.9 percent. These three markets have a glut of listings:
- Las Vegas: up 77 percent over last year
- Washington, D.C.: up 63.3 percent over last year
- Raleigh, North Carolina: up 56.4 percent over last year
Tucker Carlson: For those wondering why Tucker Carlson makes so many antisemitic rants or why Tucker Carlson features Holocaust denier guests on his podcast or why people walked out of Carlson’s recent Turning Point speech, or why Tucker Carlson has been ostracized from the Trump White House, this might be part of the answer: Tucker Carlson raises $15 million for new media venture with backing from financier Omeed Malik
Many Americans Hold Dual Citizenship: If the other nation allows it, the United States of America allows its citizen to also be a citizen of other sovereign nations. Here are a few recognizable names of Americans who are citizens of both the United States and another nation.
- Elon Musk (USA and South Africa)
- Jim Carrey (USA and Canada)
- Natalie Portman (USA and Israel)
- Dr. Mehmet Oz (USA and Turkey)
- Joel Embiid (USA, France and Cameroon)
- Tom Hanks (USA and Greece)
- Arnold Schwarzenegger (USA and Austria)
- Peter Thiel (USA, Germany and New Zealand)
According to Passage Immigration Law website, these nations permit dual citizenship with the United States without any restrictions:
Australia, Canada, France, Ireland, Israel Switzerland, and the United Kingdom. These four nations allow dual citizenship with the United States with restrictions: Germany, Japan, Mexico, and the Philippines
Events from around the globe
France: Gaza problem solved! They can all go to France! Besides the fact that there was never an independent “Palestine” country, most Arab nations do NOT want any Gazans sent to their nation. While there would be some Gazan refugees who simply want to live their lives, Arab nations know a mass exodus would include Hamas (an offshoot of the Muslim brotherhood) and other Palestinian militants onto their soil.
After the 1948 United Nations partition, Gaza was part of Egypt and the West Bank became part of Jordan. Why didn’t Egypt and Jordan allow those two areas to become a “Palestinian” state. In its Six Day War in 1967, Israel won the land. But now the problem has been solved—Viva la France! Viva la Gazans in France! It started when a Palestinian woman who came to France found her asylum request denied by France’s refugee authority.
She appealed, and France's National Court of Asylum (CNDA) that all Palestinians in Gaza are eligible for asylum in France finding that Israeli military actions in Gaza meet the threshold for “persecution,” and therefore the Palestinian can stay in France. By extension, the court’s ruling means that under the 1951 Geneva Convention, ALL qualifying applicants have French refugee protection. Henda Ayari, a prominent French secular activist and former Muslim, frequently discusses the problems of having
France accept Gaza refugees since their ideologies are anti-Western and anti-Semitic. She posted on social media:
“France is already grappling with internal instability, with growing tensions in many immigrant-heavy suburbs. Now it opens its doors unconditionally to people from a region where terrorist groups operate openly, and where some welcomed the massacres of October 7.”
Germany: Its new government, led by Chancellor Friedrich Merz, wants to increase the number of border police to enforce stricter illegal immigrant entries. Merz is hoping other European nations join Germany. He said: "If we, everybody together in the European Union, give the signal to those who are setting out for Europe without valid opportunities for entry, if we give this signal especially to the traffickers, that these routes are going to get a lot more difficult and that we are going to close them, then that is a joint and good signal."
Great Britain: As more proof the government is moving more towards communism, the government recently announced plans to map the DNA of every newborn baby in the NHS public health system. They state it’s to assess the risk of various diseases, and maybe that’s PART of the reason, but anyone following Great Britain must be very skeptical.
Muslims are less than 7 percent of Britain’s population, yet percentagewise disproportionately secure a large percentage of its social services. According to some reports, since 2000, Muslims in Great Britain have been responsible for overwhelming majority of all terrorism-related deaths. Muslims are the overwhelming majority of ongoing terror threats under surveillance. They are nearly 20 percent of the British prison population, with nearly 50 percent of working-age Muslims unemployed and nearly 30 percent living in social housing. Assimilation is not part of their mantra. They want Great Britain to assimilate them. New York City voters should keep all this in mind in November when they consider casting a vote for a communist Muslim whose policies would destroy the city.
- British Dad Arrested While Trying to Save Daughter from Rape Gangs Says Police Faked Records to Smear Him - A British father alleged in an interview on Friday that local Rotherdam police created fake arrest reports to derail an investigation into authorities repeatedly arresting him for attempting to rescue his daughter from a child rape den.
Netherlands: Their overloaded power grid can’t handle the demand as the country stupidly works to lower carbon emissions. So, now the nation is rationing electricity. We write “stupidly” since Russia, China and India are emitting carbons and not worrying about it. Nearly 12,000 businesses along with public buildings (hospitals, schools and fire stations) are in the queue hoping to soon get onto the network for electricity that will meet all their needs. In the meantime, some areas of the nation have been told that new homes might not have electrical hookups until the 2030s. (Not the year 2030, but the decade.)
Spain: Violent street brawls in Spain between Muslims and Christians after Muslim migrants attack and beat an old man.
Syria: The Druze minority are being slaughtered in Syria, but you don’t see any protests on college campuses or elsewhere. And who is coming in to protect the Druze minority in Syria? Israel! More than half the roughly 1 million Druze worldwide live in Syria. Most of the other Druze live in Lebanon and Israel, including in the Golan Heights.
