[Regnum] California Governor Gavin Newsom declared himself the leader of the free world on social media amid the shutdown of the US federal government. Oh dear. Who will tell him?
"Good news, patriots! With Washington closed, I, Gavin Newsom, am now the leader of the free world," Newsom wrote.
He proposed his "program," which included universal health care, free school lunches and daycare, high-paying jobs, and the elimination of "evil" tariffs.
Newsom also promises subsidies for eggs, hair gel for "pretty Democrats," and the elimination of Ticketmaster fees for fans of singer Taylor Swift.
The US federal government shut down at midnight (7:00 a.m. Moscow time) on October 1 due to a lack of funding. In Congress, Republicans and Democrats failed to agree on a number of spending items and failed to agree on a budget. A temporary resolution to continue federal funding failed to pass. Representatives of both parties accuse each other of prolonging the shutdown for political reasons.
US President Donald Trump has stated that he will use the shutdown to implement massive cuts. Halting government funding could yield positive results. The American leader intends to use the situation to get rid of "democratic things" that the country no longer needs.

That's the insufferable media team assigned to newsom. Because they are unfunny retards, all they can do is ape somebody else's style, Trump. Hint: if people have to white knight you about being funny, you aren't, like when all the shills rushed to defend Ghostbusters 2016 as comedy gold.
[GatewayPundit] The wildfires that swept through southern California happened in January. That was ten months ago. Since then, in Malibu, which lost more than 700 structures in the fires, only two reconstruction permits have been issued. TWO. Some mighty valuable property there. Gonna take a while to split up that boodle, kick out the residents, bring in the big guys,
What are the people who run California doing all day? How is this even possible?
We are reminded of the predictions by Adam Carolla after the fires. Pretty much everything he predicted is coming true.
Hot Air reports:
Malibu Lost 720 Structures in the Fire; 2 Building Permits Have Been Issued So Far
Remember the halcyon days of January 2025, when every politician representing the Los Angeles area, from city councilmen to the governor, promised to expedite permitting to help residents rebuild after the disastrous fires the Democrats created?
It was all bulls**t, and everybody knew it then, but of course, everybody in California’s Pravda pretended to take them seriously. After all, this is California, where the sun shines ever day and Gavin Newsom has a perpetual 10-year plan to end homelessness. Democrats are GOOD and Republicans are EVIL.
Well, as predicted by every sane person, the politicians have failed to follow through with their promised expediting of the permitting process. Of the 720 structures destroyed, only two have gotten permits to rebuild. One suspects that Newsom’s promise to rebuild the area better than ever actually means that he and the Democrats want to reshape it into their version of utopia.
[FoxNews] ’I pray this individual doesn’t hurt another innocent victim but the public deserves to know,' said Weld County Sheriff Steve Reams
The sheriff’s office released a warning to the public that it was having to release Debisa, who the office called a "potential danger to the community," because he did not meet the competency requirements to stand trial under a new Colorado law passed under Democratic leadership in 2024.
After a repeat offender was discovered on a college campus with a rifle, Rep. Gabe Evans, R-Colo., slammed Democratic leaders in Colorado for "devastating law enforcement morale" by what he described as siding with illegals and criminals above police and federal officials.
Ephraim Debisa, a 21-year-old reported refugee from Tanzania, was arrested again last week for unlawful possession of a weapon on school grounds and trespassing after being previously arrested for suspicion of attempting to commit second-degree murder, first-degree assault and engaging in a riot, according to the Weld County Sheriff’s Office. The statement said that Debisa was also facing charges of felony menacing and first-degree burglary from earlier in the year.

Colorado was taken over by the Dem’s maybe a decade in a half ago in a way that converted most of the institutions with blocks put in place to prevent a counter- revolution. It used to be a symbol of the Wild West. Now it acts like it’s part of the UK.

"Anybody got anymore good ideas about how we could oppress a formerly free people?"
"How about we make voting Labour mandatory?"
[FoxNews] Farage and Corbyn decry Starmer's ID push as 'excessive' state power
The U.K.’s right and left-wing parties have reached an uncommon consensus: they oppose British Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s latest attempt to curb illegal immigration through mandatory digital ID cards.
The plan, announced last week and which will be fully rolled out by August 2029, revived a decades-old debate across the U.K. over whether digital IDs will be overly intrusive or even effective in combating illegal migration.
"You will not be able to work in the United Kingdom if you do not have digital ID. It's as simple as that," Starmer, leader of the Labour Party, said in announcing the compulsory plan.
But while illegal immigration has become an increasing concern across both sides of the aisle in the U.K., Starmer’s approach has been met with open opposition.
Former Labour Party leader Jeremy Corbyn, who left the party in 2024 to stand as an Independent, said he "firmly oppose[s] the government’s plans for compulsory digital ID cards."
"This is an affront to our civil liberties, and will make the lives of minorities even more difficult and dangerous," he said. "It is excessive state interference — and must be resisted."
Corbyn, who this week launched his own political movement called "Your Party" as an alternative to what he called the "control freaks" of Labour, echoed similar criticism once voiced by right-wing leader Nigel Farage, who founded Reform UK in opposition to the Conservatives.
Farage, in a post on X, said he was also "firmly opposed" to the mandatory digital ID cards and argued, "It will make no difference to illegal immigration, but it will be used to control and penalize the rest of us."
"The state should never have this much power," he added.
While Starmer’s plan has drawn fire from both the left and right, albeit for very different reasons, polls suggest the public mood is also shifting.
The Independent reported that more than half of Brits backed digital IDs in June, with fewer than 20% opposed.
But that support appears to have drastically shifted, with nearly half of all Brits now saying they oppose the measure, according to the news outlet.
The digital ID card, which can be kept on a smartphone, would include a holder’s name, residency status, date of birth and nationality. British reports said it would initially be used only for employment verification, though its scope could be expanded.
The plan faces resistance: more than 2.4 million Brits have signed a petition on Parliament’s website opposing it, the BBC reported. Any petition with over 100,000 signatures must be considered for debate.
The agency said that "in the past week alone, violent rioters have been arrested for assault and obstruction, and three of them were carrying loaded firearms to protest."
[NYPOST] Democratic socialist and mayoral front-runner Zohran Mamdani wants to undo the Gifted and Talented program for young New York City school kids — the latest move to revert to ex-Mayor Comrade Bill de Blasio
...cryptocommie former mayor of New York and for some reason a Dem candidate for president in 2020. Corrupt and incompetent, his qualifications for office seem to consist of being married to a black woman, with whom he honeymooned in Cuba. He has a preppy-looking son named Dante, whose Divine Comedy involved getting his back hair up when a police car drove past him slowly. New Yorkers voted for him, so they deserved him... 's era.
Mamdani, the Democratic nominee for mayor, told the New York Times
...which still proudly claims Walter Duranty's Pulitzer prize... that he would eliminate the program at the kindergarten level in a move that is likely to anger parents, who have been passionately divided on the issue.
The gifted classes would remain active through the school year, but would no longer be available next fall, according to the report.
[NYPOST] A federal judge temporarily blocked the Trump administration Wednesday from yanking nearly $34 million in MTA counterterrorism grants to New York — a day after $187 million in cuts to similar federal funds to the state were spared.
Manhattan federal judge Lewis Kaplan noted that the reduction in the MTA grant money would force New York to ''significantly to reduce its police presence and its counter terrorism activities.''
The anti-terror funds — created in the wake of the Sept. 11 attacks, where 3,000 people died ''within sight of this courthouse'' — can be distributed ''solely on the risk of terrorist activities,'' the judge said.

Right. Did he make them pinky swear not to steal the funds?

See where that pot of money goes. If it is dumped into general funds, it is gone for demoncrat pet projects rather than counterterrorism.

Of course he did. That doesn’t mean he’s right, though
[GEO.TV] Former US secretary of state Antony Blinken ...71st United States secretary of state and a leading light of the corrupt and inept Biden administration. He previously served as deputy national security advisor from 2013 to 2015 and deputy secretary of state from 2015 to 2017 under the corrupt and inept Obama administration. He advocated for the 2003 invasion of Iraq while serving as the Democratic staff director of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee from 2002 to 2008. He was a foreign policy advisor for the Biden 2008 presidential campaign. During his tenure in the Obama administration, Blinken helped craft B.O.'s policy on Afghanistan, Pakistan, and the nuclear program of Iran. We all saw how well each of those worked. After leaving government service, Blinken moved into the private sector, co-founding WestExec Advisors, a lobbying firm... voiced support for a Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with a rusty iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response... plan laid out by President Donald Trump ...Never got invited to a P.Diddy party... , saying it was in line with a deal he pursued under Joe The Big Guy Biden ...46th president of the U.S. Former Senator-for-Life from Delaware, an example of the kind of top-notch Washington intellect to be found in the World's Greatest Deliberative Body.... "I do think it's cause for some hope. I certainly hope that the plan gets fully accepted, fully adopted and fully implemented," Blinken said.
"This is essentially the plan that developed over many months and more or less (was) left in a drawer for the incoming administration, and I'm very, very glad they picked it up," he told the podcast of former federal prosecutor Preet Bharara.
But he also acknowledged risks in the framework, including allowing Israel to determine when the situation allows it to withdraw fully from Gaza.
"There's some loopholes that they could drive a truck through if they wanted to," Blinken said of Israel.

Was it left in the drawer (instead of the 'File 13') because they didn't want to propose it?
Was it covered in ice cream drips, drool stains or something else?
Whose drawer was it actually in?
