VP Vance tells Israel to be grateful and mindful of their tone toward America:

"Donald J. Trump is the only head of state in the entire world who is sympathetic to the nation of Israel at this moment in time.


If I was in the cabinet of the Israeli government, I might not be attacking the only powerful ally that I have anywhere left in the entire world."

β€œThe simple fact is that the only way the Iranians get any of those resources β€” not a single penny, by the way, from the U.S., under any circumstances β€” is if they comply fully and change their behavior.”

I consider this a positive platform for our relationship with the Middle East and a good early outcome of the Iran excursion.

The MOU in effect 1) tells the region to act right or face American might; 2) shows we can work with anyone without contradicting our core interests.

Most importantly, if it doesn't work we'll just bomb & blockade harder. This is perfectly consistent with Peace Through Strength and the 'Deal or Destroy' strategy we have developed this term, most effectively against Venezuela.

Keep in mind President Trump is already aware of the risks of the Middle East. Before this term began in January he Truthed a video about Netanyahu wanting us to be in a protracted conflict with Iran, because Israel's interest is to instigate.

The Board of Peace, Gulf agreements and this MOU create outlets away from those endless wars while stuffing the American purse with better tools and investments than we've had in any prior decade. That is the definitive pragmatic approach to such a messy region, and it's profitable. Worst case scenario, we'll just raze it.

Trump's DOJ continues to escalate its citizenship revocation effort with a target of over 200 filed by October.

This would be more attempts in 1 year than in 20 years combined. 2025, 2026 are already outpacing all admins since the 70s. 'Not enough' but it is normalizing denaturalization, making investigations into migrants explicit domestic policy.

The White House has cleared a rule to cut duration of status with a 2-4 year limit on foreign students so they can no longer be 'forever students'.

The rule affects F-1, J-1 and I visas β€” work, study, media and journalism β€” which would close a long-term legal migration loophole. This hits Chinese students and Indian 'techies' who convert to H-1Bs, reinforcing the Trump admin's approach to curbing legal immigration with a thousand bureaucratic cuts.

The Trump Admin has pulled AIDS help money from South Africa for its ongoing neglect and harassment of White people in the country. State Dept vows to defend White South Africans, who have been the only refugees taken under Trump so far, and will apply additional pressure.

At the current pace the Trump admin is filing 1 decade of denaturalizations in 1 year; the base target of 250 cases filed by October would put us over 2 decades of denaturalizations tried in 2026 alone.

Small the numbers may be, the normalisation is huge for such a rare process. By the time our legal precedent and representation is more secure, and/or Congress is willing to expand authority for revoking citizenship, we can push even higher totals.

This visual depicts denaturalization lawsuits in federal district courts; Trump again is on top both terms, low as the totals are for now. As with most things Trump is the builder setting foundation for a much greater project.

Anyone surprised by recent events or Vice President JD Vance's comments should know first term that Trump was constantly frustrated that Benjamin Netanyahu kept evading plans for peace:

β€˜[Palestine's president] wanted to make a deal, he's so nice. We talked about many things. But I talk to Bibi, and I ask him, 'you don't eant to make a deal do you?, and he goes 'Well, uh, uh, uh'. I don't think Bibi ever wanted to make a deal.’

Trump has consistently overridden Israel's intentions in order to defend American interests, because Trump wants good business and a useful Middle East more than anything. I support that. At the same time, Israel is the strongest power of the region and the most liked by American Christians, so it pulls more. Walking that balance involves a lot of back and forth diplomatically; at the end of the day what matters is America's dominance and decisions prevailing.

In May, 2026 ICE sent out a record high volume of migrant removal flights, with the previous historic high set in April.

Last month saw multiple countries join the list of third-country deportation destinations and this month the War Dept resumed military removal flights, setting deportations on track for higher heights.

In early June we saw mega hearings in immigration courts begin. This is putting not only increased pressure on migrants to appear, but harsher expectations on illegals without representation, helping us remove and return foreigners faster. This practice has been observed in Texas, California, NY, Minnesota and more.

Presidents have had the authority to impose fines on illegals since 1996, yet Trump is the only one to use it.

The Trump Admin has been levying fines of $998 a day against illegals, and in May introduced a rule to increase the penalty certain aliens ordered removed will face. The comment period for that rule ends in June. Beyond fees and fines the Trump admin has ramped up first-ever attempts to seize assets and garnish wages from immigrants of various classes.

Reminder this October the following foreigners will lose Medicaid coverage: asylees, refugees, parolees, even H-1Bs and of course all illegals. ACA subsidies will likewise be restricted by status.

Multiple leftists were spotted protesting Trump's successful project to clean up the Lincoln Memorial reflecting pool; the protestors held up 'Team Algae' signs.

The political purpose of the left is to side with whatever poses a problem in any scenario, whether it's pond scum or Palestine a liberal will fight for it equally.
