Video shows heavy law enforcement presence around the building. The police department told CNN the scene is still “very active.”
The 634-foot skyscraper, located at 345 Park Avenue, includes corporate offices for the National Football League and Blackstone. The building occupies an entire city block and is one of 41 New York City buildings with its own zip code.

Trump is descended from Scottish nobility (Clan MacLeod) and his estate in Scotland includes the ruins of the castle that was birthplace of King Robert the Bruce, who defeated the English and restored Scotland as an independent kingdom.
Trump is the most powerful Scottish ruler since King James VI.

🇬🇧🇺🇸 POWER MOVE: Trump is in Britain, but nevertheless he is receiving Starmer as guests … so Starmer is not the host.
LMAO … isn’t it supposed to be the other way around?

That’s interesting.

IN POLITICAL NEWS
1) The Tulsi Gabbard fallout continues, as DemoKKKrats squeal about a flawed Senate Intel report that said the Steele Dossier was not used in the key intel briefing that was changed to use against Trump. In fact, the Dossier was in fact in fact used. Meanwhile, like the Allies in WW II advancing on all fronts, the DOJ got a high-level interviewer to interview Ghislaine Maxwell in jail. She "named names," apparently over 100. No one had ever interviewed her before! More important, as lawyer Jeff Childers points out, the DOJ needs about 4 days prep for such a witness, so they started well in advance. And, as Jeff points out, it's funny to watch the NYSlimes have to begin walking back years of stories, noting that the new evidence is "messy" and "complicated." No, it's straighforward and clear. YOU, NYSlimes, were a mouthpuppet for a criminal coup against the United States gubment. YOU should be in jail too. And it is perfectly within the authority of the DOJ to empanel a new grand jury, if one has not already been empaneled. Shipwreckedcrew argues that Zero can be indicted if he was involved in any post 2017 coverup. Current CIA Director John Ratcliffe says that Jim (Scrotumtoter) Comey, John (Brennanski) Brennan, and Cankles could soon be indicted over Muh Russia.
2) And since we're talking Epstein's list, which hasn't been released yet, just another little coincidence that the FBI broke a "Dark Web" kiddie porn business, arresting 19. By my count, this is somewhere around 13-14 MAJOR human trafficking busts since Bondi took over DOJ.
3) The Wall Street Urinal, which has become completely unreliable with its tariff position, nevertheless has a poll out showing Rs are -17 in popularity, but DemoKKKrats as -30.
4) The Great Steal of 2020, Epstein, the Russia Hoax, the protection of Big Pharma, and the breaking of the DemoKKKrat Party which has brought us to a new "consequence culture."
5) Republicans continue to gain voter registration ground, this time in NC, where the margin was 175,000 in 2020 and now is a D lead of only 18,000. In active voters, NC Rs now have a lead of over 90,000 among active voters. Meanwhile, DemoKKKrats are now frantic to get some additional seats via a hurry up redistricting in Kollyfornia and NY. The problem is, if anyone gets redistricted, it's likely TX, OH, and FL, which would bring the GOP at least a dozen more seats.
6) Ryan Burge confirms that the Muslim vote shifted significantly (by 22 points) toward Republicans in 2024, and that the weekly mosque attenders vote Republican now at a 42% clip. This confirms my thesis at the time that the DemoKKKrats had a big civil war going on with the pro-Pale/Hamas Murder Pirates v. Jews.
7) Seth Keshel analyzes the forthcoming (by law) redistricting in OH, and concludes Rs can easily take two more seats there, with an outside shot at a third.
8) President Trump has called for prosecution of Oprah, Cackles, and Beyonce for 2024 campaign payouts.
9) Trump just said for a second time that Larry Summers, the Pres. of Harvard, went to Epstein Island.
10) CIA director John Ratcliffe will declassify the classified section of the John "Bull" Durham nothingburger report. And, he says, more treasonous docs are coming.
11) Planned Murderhood is closing two more mills in OH. See my related story below.
IN ILLEGAL CRIMINAL ALIEN NEWS
12) The head of Immigration services wants to make the citizenship test more rigorous, and wants to tighten H1B visa qualifications.
13) Deportations from Gator Gitmo have started. Not to be left behind, Gov. Greg Abbott of TX has announced a new "5,000 bed migrant detention center."
IN CULTURAL NEWS
14) Houston's Planned Murderhood is shutting down its mega facility. This is the largest abortion mill in the Western Hemisphere.
15) The Center for Religion, Culture, and Democracy put out its list of the states with the most religious freedom and those with the least. FL, MT, OH, IL (!!?), AL, MS rank the highest, WV the lowest.
16) Scary story here. A person was "outed" by AI that sent a search of his Facebook posts to his boss asking if they "aligned" with his moral views. Get it? A MACHINE contacted a human to rat on another human.
IN ECONOMIC NEWS
17) President Trump had a big turnout in his visit to Scotland.
18) He had time to announce a new tariff deal with the EU of 15% on almost everything, including autos. This is basically a total win for the U.S., as Ursula von der Leyen admits: there was a trade imbalance for years, this now fixes it. As the New York Sun put it, "Trump Foes Struggle to Accept a Win." That's because they hate America, and hate Trump even more. This author, rooting for the Euros, is appalled, calling the deal one of the most expensive imperial tributes in history. Just a massive one-way transfer of wealth with no reciprocal benefits." That's right, spoogie, because this deal REDRESSES WRONGS. Best line? We "skipped the war and went straight to Versailles." I guess. The amounts of all the pieces tome to $1.6 trillion. Once again done with no task forces, no international meetings of staff, no white papers. Just Trump laying down the law to Leyen. This according to Jeff Childers "permanently diminished" the EU, and, he notes "Globalism just suffered what could be its mortal blow." Apparently he's right, as in Trump world, says Politico, the U.S. takes all and "gives nothing in return." Suck it, Hans.
COMMENT: Understanding the history of what happened here is important. After WW II, the U.S> subsidized Europe via the Marshall Plan, which transferred billions (much of it to Mediocre Britain). Yes, it stabilized Euro economies and governments so they did not go commie. And yes, Americans specifically (i.e., certain businesses) got more than paid back through purchases made with Marshall Plan $ (but taxpayers on the whole got hosed) The Euros squandered that, after 1960 dedicating most of their resources not to infrastructure or competitiveness, but to social welfare networks. After Ronald Reagan pulled the life-support plug on communism in Russia and Eastern Europe, allowing the Euros to save even more money, they wallowed in Green and squandered that. All of that was occurring while they were TAXING Americans via tariffs and trade policy. In short, the U.S. has been giving annual bags of money to the Euros to destroy themselves.
19) The markets liked the tariffs as the Dow Jones hit an all-time high.
20) Retailers are fleeing urban areas due to crime. Leftoids scream "racism."
21) Trump's legal team is going after Rupert Murdoch and its clownish Faux News for Epstein-related defamation.
22) Las Vegas is losing visitors due to its incredibly high prices.
IN INTERNATIONAL NEWS
24) They are back at it in Canabodia (my temporary new name for Canada), where the fascist government there continues to harass people with the Freedom Convoy. The Royal Bank there just froze the accounts of the lawyer for the FC for "risk related concerns," namely the risk they might be punished by the gubment.
25) Probably way too late for Mediocre Britain, but some townspeople are fighting back against the immigrant hordes.
26) Trump met with Ursala van der Leyen and read her the riot act on wind, which he called wasteful, bad for the environment, and (correctly) a "scam."
27) The ChiComs are our enemy! They now passed a law permitting theft of foreign intellectual property---as if these lawless goobergoblins needed a law to do that.
IN ENTERTAINMENT NEWS
28) In one of the larger scandals to date, the Tea app dating service designed to rank and expose men was hit with a hack that revealed over 70,000 women's data, including un-retouched drivers' licenses. Oops.
IN MEDICAL NEWS
29) Chemotherapy accelerates aging, so it saves you from cancer so you die sooner anyway.
30) Another study shows that mRNA vaxxes trigger immune system problems.
31) Researchers have made a key breakthrough in battling breast cancer.
AND FINALLY . . .
32) I guess FL has a Burmese Python problem, and now it has furry robotic rabbits that draw out the snakes and various reptile hunters go get 'em. Apparently , not this rabbit:

We have plenty of REAL rabbits up here in MA.
I’d be happy to share.
