From combat_boots post....
I know what you mean about leashes. When I had twin toddlers, I put a kid leash on their hands to keep them in tow. They loved to ‘tangle me up’.
(Some people thought it was cruel doing putting them on a leash, but it was better than losing one in a mall).
WATCH: Trump Golfs During Visit To His Turnberry Golf Course In Scotland

ENJOY POTUS playing at Turnberry🥰⛳
🙏🙏🙏for our pollywog to recover from the bout with the flu and for her niece (I understand)
Finally, hopefully the reopening of our insane asylums will serve to get the Lunatic Demonicrats OFF the streets.
We’d all be safer!!!
FINALLY got caught up on the thread. You all are a chatty group of MAGAdonians!
Just spoke to the Prime Minister of Cambodia relative to stopping the War with Thailand. I am calling the Acting Prime Minister of Thailand, right now, to likewise request a Ceasefire, and END to the War, which is currently raging. We happen to be, by coincidence, currently dealing on Trade with both Countries, but do not want to make any Deal, with either Country, if they are fighting — And I have told them so! The call with Thailand is being made momentarily. The call with Cambodia has ended, but expect to call back regarding War stoppage and Ceasefire based on what Thailand has to say. I am trying to simplify a complex situation! Many people are being killed in this War, but it very much reminds me of the Conflict between Pakistan and India, which was brought to a successful halt.
>>>POTUS always working toward bringing PEACE around the Globe.
Your story echoes so many across the country. It IS so sad.
Unfortunately, the libs ... and, unbelievably, even a few posters on FR ... are bashing Pres Trump for this and naysaying that we should go back to putting these asylums back in operation ... they’re saying it can’t be done.
There are always negative nellie’s/those cheering w/the left, who just don’t want to see POTUS taking care of these horrific problems.
Thank you for this vid clip of POTUS playing golf, at his Turnberry course.
What an entourage!! I see son Eric and I see Sweet Karoline....along with about 6-7 other golf carts full of people/detail.
He hit that shot with his 9 iron (it looked like) ... so, it must be a Par 3 ... maybe? His first shot was into the rough, unfortunately ... I think I saw him drop, onto the green, after that.
Hard to tell from such a distance ... and, without the usual golf commentators I’m used to, during golf games. 🤣
TODAY’S NEWS, JULY 24-25, 2025
Writer: Larry Schweikart
The News of Today is the History of Tomorrow
IN POLITICAL NEWS
1) In the ongoing avalanche of documents showing that both Zero and Rutabaga were engaged in the most reprehensible attempt at a coup, the House committee investigating this concluded that all the “Muh Russia” came from a “scant, unclear, and unverifiable fragment of a sentence from one of the substandard reports.” Tulsi Gabbard clearly has more drops planned, is trying the case in public, and making it hard for the Deep State to come to any conclusion other than the fact that the Obama administration led a coup. Once again, I have Zen Master who claims no Obama arrest will ever happen. But then I have Jeff Childers whose analysis makes sense. The only reason for laying out this much evidence in public is “it is to pave a political path to an ultimate arrest.” She cannot arrest Zero herself, but she is paving a path for DOJ to do so by preparing the battlefield with an evidentiary artillery barrage. Childers claims that the torrent of info Tulsi will release will make it nearly impossible not to act, and that Tulsi will have prepared the American public for the arrest.
2) A national redistricting battle looms with Texas leading the way. Perpetually-wrong Larry Sabato says Rs have an edge.
3) Mike Lindell won a legal victory when a court voided a $5 million judgment against him. The American people won two legal victories when a Ninth Circuit panel said that requiring separate “ammunition checks” was a violation of the Second Amendment and in Oregon a federal Ninth Circuit panel said that requiring adopted parents to “support” a kid’s “sexual orientation violates the First Amendment.
4) Kollyfornia, so far, has removed over 3.1 million ineligible voters from its rolls. Figuring that at least 60% of these were DemoKKKrats (vs., say, ony 700,000 Rs), the Kollyfornia GOP just gained more than 1 million net voters on DemoKKKrats there. It’s not clear yet if both New Azteca (LA) and Orange Co. have come in.
5) There is a big opportunity for Rs in WI, where incumbent gov. Tony Evers won’t run for reelection. His fundraising was lagging. Gee, that doesn’t sound like a blue wave to me.
6) Very scary: a Kollyfornia water utility had six million hits on its website, with most IP addresses in Chy-na, as they obviously are scanning our infrastructure for weaknesses.
7) President Trump announced major changes and shrinkage to the U.S. Department of Ag, and will not only reduce the workforce by 50% but will send agencies to the hinterland to interact with the peeps.
8) While DemoKKKrats and libs are still whining about stuff Trump did five months ago, he keeps moving, always on offense, announcing a new plan to end crime and disorder on American streets. It directs federal money only to those states that are handing out free syringes and other such nonsense. Among the points in the plan, there would be carrots/sticks for enforcing homelessness/urban squatting penalties, bringing back standards to commit nutcases and get them off the streets (easily 1/3 of all homeless), emphasize treatment rather than “safe injection,” and continue to track sex offenders pretending to be homeless. Beautiful. This is a direct threat to the homeless/industrial complex-—the former USAID and other NGO/gubment infrastructure that only works if there are a lot of homeless. By the way, this opens up another potential DemoKKKrat Civil War in that now DemoKKKrats will have to choose either siding with the homeless-industrial complex or with the “abundance economy/good management” types.
9) Ghislaine Maxwell is meeting a second time with fed prosecutors.
10) Benghazi-by-the-Lake Mayor “Let’s Go Brandon” Johnson said he will use “progressive” revenue to pay the city’s bills. Riiiiiight. Benghazi-by-the-Lake is bankrupt in all but name, with a $37 billion unfunded pension looming.
IN ILLEGAL CRIMINAL ALIEN NEWS
11) A new report shows that illegals are costing the US over $200 billion per year.
12) The DOJ is suing New Kabul, er, NYC, for its “sanctuary city” policies.
13) First it was revealed that the Rutabaga administration lost over 220,000 illegal criminal alien children, and now Trump says they have rescued 13,000. But no one yet really knows what to do with them unless they agree to self-deport.
IN CULTURAL NEWS
14) Bad news for colleges, as a survey of religious Americans show that only 43% think college is a good investment, while only 38% of non-evangelical Protestants think so. Interestingly, the “nones” have the lowest faith in a college education, at only 36%. Oh, and included is this story from January, where college enrollments are about to fall off a cliff. The group most likely to attend religious services every week are those with advanced degrees-—kind of a counter-intuitive finding but one that makes more sense when you understand that “all religions” includes Muslims and Hindus who come here for engineering, scientific, and medical training. Meanwhile, in the $221 million payout by Columbia to make DOJ charges go away, Jewish students, faculty, and even a couple of janitors held hostage by the nutcase Hamas Murder Pirate picklebenders will get settlements.
15) The Supes gave Trump a win in a Consumer Product Safety Case. Chip, chip, chippin’ away. Dang, ACB votes right yet again.
IN TRANSOID NEWS
16) New York will pay $225,000 to end a legal battle with a photographer over same sex marriage photos.
IN ECONOMIC NEWS
17) Every member of Trump’s admin, save Brook Rollins, is a killer. Lee Zeldin at EPA is preparing to go after Obama’s “endangerment” ruling at EPA. You know, the one that said CO2 “endangers public health?”
18) Good. President Trump has blocked AI groups with an “ideological bias” from gubment work.
19) We need to institute a Paul (”the Ferret”) Krugman and Jim (”Nose Candy”) Cramer award for the most consistently wrong economic analysis. Now jobless claims fell again thanks to Trump’s policies, This constitutes six straight months of falling joblessness, down 4,000 to 217,000, the lowest in three months.
20) Marathon Oil eliminated a safety index for bonuses but added DEI. Shortly after that, the explosions and accidents increased.
21) Gas is booming but green is now fading thanks to the fact that Trump has eliminated all subsidies.
22) The SEC is “poised to” de-list ChiCom firms.
IN INTERNATIONAL NEWS
23) Remember those post-Iran bombing stories that said that the U.S. strikes “didn do nuffin?” Yeah. Good times. Iran confirms the strikes “destroyed” Iran’s nuke capability.
24) That Japanese investment deal? It’s better than we thought.
25) With little better to do, Cambodia and Thailand are shooting at each other. Apparently this started over a temple and the land upon which it sits.
IN ENTERTAINMENT NEWS
26) Wrestling icon and relatively new born-again Christian Hulk Hogan, dead at age 71.
27) Jazz great Chuck Mangione dead at age 84.
28) As an author, I find this disgusting. Rutabaga is going to be given $10 million for a memoir. Now, first, it would never, ever, ever sell enough (when the publishers don’t have resources to pay advances to everyday writers anymore). Second, seriously? You’re asking a dementia patient for “memoirs?” Knee-grow please.
29) File this under, “They still have a pulse, barely,” Megxit and the Ginger Duke (Meghan and Harry) are seeing a collapse in their popularity as they apparently have lost their Netflix production deal. It seems no one is ga-ga over polo.
30) I think this was expected, as the FCC approved the Paramount-Skydance (the Tom Cruise production company) merger.
31) President Trump signed the $9 billion recissions bill, eliminating funding for NPR.
IN MEDICAL NEWS
32) A new study shows mRNA vaxxes are linked to long-lasting genetic disruption that leads to cancer.
AND FINALLY . . .
33) There are 57 million senior gamers in America-—I am one, as my fave is “Age of Empires” or, occasionally, “Warcraft III.” But on my tablet I have “Megapolis,” which I like a lot.

Thanks for posting Larry’s take on the ‘wild world of politics’.
I just had a very good call with the Prime Minister of Cambodia, and informed him of my discussions with Thailand, and its Acting Prime Minister. Both Parties are looking for an immediate Ceasefire and Peace. They are also looking to get back to the “Trading Table” with the United States, which we think is inappropriate to do until such time as the fighting STOPS. They have agreed to immediately meet and quickly work out a Ceasefire and, ultimately, PEACE! It was an Honor to deal with both Countries. They have a long and storied History and Culture. They will hopefully get along for many years to come. When all is done, and Peace is at hand, I look forward to concluding our Trading Agreements with both!
>>>Another Update on Cambodia and Thailand, this time on Trade
Yes....we are quite the chatty ones :-)
When one of my SIL had 4 little kids she went shopping with them at a mall.
The two oldest ran off into a store, hid in clothing racks and didn’t come out.
The mall police were even called to help in the search.
My SIL was frantic trying to take care of the 2 youngest while searching for the other two.
Someone finally heard them snickering and searched on the inside of the round rack.
There they were!
My SIL was a nervous wreck by this time, wanted to spank the living daylights out of them but somehow got everyone out of the mall and home.
She never took them anywhere after that except if they were leashed up.
They did make leashes for children back then with a harness that the child put on like a jacket.
They went to Disneyland like that and she said they got mixed reviews.
So I know exactly why you did that.
Thankfully, I never had to use but would have if needed.
oh my, look at that little nugget.
You’ve seen first hand what CAN be done will these mentally ill people ... God bless your dear, late hubby for doing the Lord’s work, in these state hospitals.
Excellent news recap, by our own LS.
Always appreciate his insight, research and general take on all things current.
Thank you for posting, Gran.
You’re welcome, stars & stripes.
... Ceasefire and Peace. They are also looking to get back to the “Trading Table” with the United States, which we think is inappropriate to do until such time as the fighting STOPS ...
MORE WIN-WIN!!
Thank you for POTUS’ latest Truth(s), edie.

During my tenure here as the Deputy Director of the FBI, I have repeatedly relayed to you that things are happening that might not be immediately visible, but they are happening.
The Director and I are committed to stamping out public corruption and the political weaponization of both law enforcement and intelligence operations. It is a priority for us. But what I have learned in the course of our properly predicated and necessary investigations into these aforementioned matters, has shocked me down to my core. We cannot run a Republic like this. I’ll never be the same after learning what I’ve learned.
We are going to conduct these righteous and proper investigations by the book and in accordance with the law. We are going to get the answers WE ALL DESERVE. As with any investigation, I cannot predict where it will land, but I can promise you an honest and dignified effort at truth. Not “my truth,” or “your truth,” but THE TRUTH.
God bless America, and all those who defend Her.
Respectfully,
Dan

MAJOR Message from Deputy FBI Director Dan Bongino, promising us Righteous Investigations, but not predicting where things will land.
Not much to hang out hopes on, but I just saw this on Fox.
Well, the good news is that Bongino is still at the FIB .... lets see how these “public corruption and the political weaponization of both law enforcement and intelligence operations” investigations turn out ... hopefully, with answers we ALL DO DESERVE.
Did Trump’s ability to deal with two sons squabbling help in his amazing ability to get 2 fighting countries to stop fighting? A father holds all the power over the kids in the home. Trump (and the American economy) holds huge power over countries that like to sell their products to us.
