News Weakly - 5/9/2026

The Strange Tale of the Ended War
Last week we were told the war in Iran was over. This week we've seen renewed clashes with Iran. Ships and oil ports are hit. Fighting continues. We were told the war had ended. "You keep using that word; I do not think it means what you think it means."

Culture of Death
A 17-year-old has been charged in the fatal stabbing of a 39-year-old man from Massachusetts in Time Square. The motive? The man stopped him from jumping turnstiles at the subway, a testament to our current "culture of death."

Culture of Death?
Yes ... a culture of death. We cry out against Israel defending themselves against the Palestinians and against Trump moving on Iran ... then we cry out against the court that limited access to abortion pills for the sake of medical safety and the Supreme Court restores access. Because if women can't kill their babies at will, who can they kill?

News of Importance
Then there's this critical news item. A horse named Golden Tempo won the Kentucky Derby this week. Now, that is "news you can use" ... right?

Your Best Source for Fake News
A judge unsealed Epstein's suicide note from 2019 (actual story). Apparently it was written on Hillary Clinton's personal stationery? Is it weird that that makes some sense? A Dutch cruise ship is quarantined off the coast of Cape Verde in the Atlantic after three people have died of the hantavirus on board (actual story). Fauci has reported it as "amazing results" in "gain-of-function research" on a "cruise ship laboratory." He's pretty excited about it. Finally, California Governor Gavin Newsom is threatening to send more Californians to the rest of the nation if we don't give in to his demands. It's been a successful strategy so far, sending Californians to Red States to alter their voting results. Watch out, America. Then ... a bonus story. News has leaked out that the makers of the series, The Chosen, are going to pull a fast one this next season by killing off their main character and having him be resurrected. Come on, guys.

Must be true; I read it on the internet.

  1. The Strange Tale of the End War
    The thing is, Americans are dumb enough to not know at all what is going on. Besides, is a couple hours of exchanged fire reallya war? If that's the case, most of the major cities in America have wars going on in them all the time. One side can call time-out, but if the other doesn't abide by the time-out, is it really the first side's fault the time-out stopped?

    Culture of Death
    It wasn't even about jumping a turnstile, but a "dispute". They caught him jumping turnstiles. What do you expect from a society that has turned it's back on God and has determined that the meaning of life is "my highest pleasure"? If there is no God, then there is no problem with killing someone, other than the dead person probably didn't want to be dead. Without God, the only valid moral authority is "might makes right" and whoever has the strongest will to enforce their "morality".

    Culture of Death?
    And to make it worse, it was Alito. State sovereignty means nothing in today's America. The Founding Fathers wouldn't even recognize us as having the same system of government as they instituted. We are no longer 50 states with their own governments working together. We are increasingly one state with 50 districts.

    I guess if you care about horse racing it is kind of news, though apparently it's not even something new going on in the horse racing world. But someone somewhere cares about it.
