JULY TWENTY-FIRST ROUNDUP OF NEWS, MEMES AND POLITICAL CARTOONS

Time for the latest current events roundup from Independent Voter Site Balladeer’s Blog.

DNI TULSI GABBARD BLOWS OPEN THE MOUNTAIN OF EVIDENCE REGARDING OBAMA AND HIS THREE-LETTER AGENCIES’ RUSSIAGATE HOAX TO TRY CRIPPLING THE INCOMING DONALD TRUMP ADMINISTRATION IN 2016. Plenty of names, facts and dates plus charts which resemble those from Organized Crime trials. Very appropriate for documenting the cesspool called America’s political establishment and for reaffirming what we’ve all known for years.

Hopefully a similar expose will eventually be done regarding the tainted and corrupt 2020 election which “selected, not elected” the corrupt, unfit figurehead Joe Biden.

HILLARY CLINTON’S ROLE IN THE RUSSIA HOAX SURFACES AGAIN

THE SEEDS OF THE RUSSIA HOAX.

EXPOSES THE UGLY POLITICAL ESTABLISHMENT LIKE NO OTHER REVELATIONS IN DECADES.

CLARICE FELDMAN’S BIG THREE STORIES THIS WEEK – THE RUSSIA HOAX REVELATIONS, CORRUPT JUDGE BOASBERG’S DEEPENING SCANDAL, AND THE WALL STREET JOURNAL BEING UNABLE TO PRODUCE THEIR – NOW PRESUMABLY FAKE – “BAWDY” LETTER FROM TRUMP.

MARYLAND’S DEMOCRAT GOVERNOR WES MOORE CREDITS PRESIDENT TRUMP FOR SECURING THE BORDER. His fellow Democrats should note how easy it is to come across as a reasonable human being like Moore did while also laying out areas in which he is wary of Trump’s approach.

PRESIDENT TRUMP GETS TEN WRONGFULLY DETAINED AMERICANS OUT OF VENEZUELA. Continue reading

NEWS, MEMES AND POLITICAL CARTOONS ROUNDUP: JULY EIGHTEENTH

 Independent Voter Site Balladeer’s Blog posts another current events roundup.

BYRON DONALDS BLASTS JILL BIDEN’S AIDE FOR FURTHERING THE COVERUP ABOUT JOE BIDEN’S UNFITNESS. Still unknown parties were making presidential decisions while an incapable figurehead was paraded before the cameras. That’s not democracy. That’s a Banana Republic.

ANOTHER BIDEN AIDE JOINS OTHER DEMOCRATS IN PLEADING THE FIFTH RATHER THAN REVEAL THE TRUTH ABOUT THE COVERUP REGARDING JOE BIDEN’S UNFITNESS. Which unelected people were making presidential decisions? And why didn’t Democrats have Biden step down so Vice President Kamala Harris could succeed to the presidency?

TRUMP’S DEPARTMENT OF LABOR AND THE SMALL BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION ENHANCE COLLABORATION TO SUPPORT AMERICAN MANUFACTURING

YET ANOTHER CALL TO NULLIFY THE BIDEN REGIME’S ILLEGITIMATE “AUTOPEN PARDONS.”

HOME DEPOT’S KEN LANGONE ADMITS HE WAS WRONG ABOUT PRESIDENT TRUMP’S TARIFF POLICIES. Says he is now “Sold on Donald Trump.”

TRIAL TIME FOR THE DEMOCRAT STATE SENATOR ARRESTED IN APRIL ON LITERAL BURGLARY CHARGE. Like I noted then, Democrat elected officials are getting more hands-on with their corruption.

QUINNIPIAC POLL: ONLY NINETEEN PERCENT APPROVE OF THE ACTIONS OF CONGRESSIONAL DEMOCRATS. Is anyone surprised? Continue reading

JULY SIXTEENTH ROUNDUP OF NEWS, MEMES AND POLITICAL CARTOONS

Here’s another current events roundup from Independent Voter Site Balladeer’s Blog here in an America where the same crowd of cowardly self-aggrandizers are still pretending and play-acting at being some kind of “resistance” movement. LMAO. These slobbering psychopaths are gutless, violent and deluded little people who prey on the innocent while talking tough.

DEMOCRAT MEDIA OUTLET MSNBC CONTRIBUTOR PROMOTES MORE VIOLENCE BY CLAIMING ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS ARE WITHIN THEIR “RIGHTS” TO SHOOT IMMIGRATION OFFICERS. Insanity.

SCANDAL OVER BIDEN REGIME’S INVALID PARDONS DEEPENS. FAUCI PARDON LOOKS LESS LEGIT BY THE DAY.  Plus we still don’t know who was really making presidential decisions while the unfit Joe Biden was paraded before the cameras for years.

CALIFORNIA MARIJUANA FARM THAT WAS BUSTED FOR ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS AND USING CHILD LABOR HAS A HISTORY OF DONATING TO DEMOCRATS. No surprise.  CHILD PREDATOR AMONG THOSE ARRESTED. Democrats, can you please leave children alone?   

PRESIDENT TRUMP LAUDED FOR BRINGING NINETY-TWO BILLION DOLLARS IN TECH AND ENERGY INVESTMENTS TO PENNSYLVANIA. More HERE. Other Democrat and Republican administrations never made the effort and dismissed such efforts as impossible. 

VICTOR DAVIS HANSON PRAISES TRUMP’S ACCOMPLISHMENTS AND HOW HE HAS PROVEN THE NAYSAYERS WRONG OVER AND OVER AGAIN. He also said President Trump has accomplished more in these first six months of his second term than most presidents accomplish in four years.

DEMOCRAT ADAM SCHIFF BEING INVESTIGATED FOR MORTGAGE FRAUD. Sometimes the wheel turns slowly, but it turns.

ECONOMIST BRIAN WESBURY LAYS OUT HOW PRESIDENT TRUMP HAS NOT ONLY CUT INFLATION BUT HAS REDUCED THE DEFICIT WITH HIS POLICIES AND LEGISLATIVE PACKAGE.   NO INFLATION IN JUNE.

PRESIDENT TRUMP STANDS BY PROTECTING FUNDS TO CONTINUE FIGHTING AIDS. A president for everybody, no matter how much flack he catches for it. Continue reading

NEWS, MEMES AND POLITICAL CARTOONS ROUNDUP: JULY FOURTEENTH

Independent Voter Site Balladeer’s Blog serves up another current events roundup. Yesterday was the one-year anniversary of President Donald Trump surviving the first of his deranged enemies’ attempts to assassinate him. Democrat media outlets covered it this way.

*** NEW! JOE BIDEN ADMITS HE DID NOT APPROVE MANY OF THE NAMES PARDONED VIA AUTOPEN. Much bigger scandal than the irrational accusations being thrown at Trump right now.

TRUMP POLICIES DELIVER BUDGET SURPLUS.

AMERICAN ECONOMIC OPTIMISM HITS HIGHEST LEVELS IN YEARS. What a difference an actual president can make.

DEMOCRAT LIES ABOUT PRESIDENT TRUMP’S TARIFFS GO DOWN IN FLAMES … AGAIN.

DEMOCRAT MAYOR BASS ANNOUNCES CASH GIVEAWAY TO ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS IN LOS ANGELES. The Party has made their slogan “Illegal immigrants uber alles” into a pure exercise in spite now.

DHS SECRETARY KRISTI NOEM DEBUNKS ADDITIONAL DEMOCRAT LIES ABOUT THE TEXAS FLOODING. More HERE. And HERE.

SENATOR KENNEDY BASHES DISGRACED FORMER CIA HEAD JOHN “THE MAN FROM S.C.U.M.” BRENNAN FOR HIS CORRUPTION. More HERE. Also, remember how Brennan had to resign years ago following the scandal about his spy antics against congress itself?

TRUMP EFFECT: JOBS GAINS ARE GOING TO CITIZENS AND WAGE GAINS ARE OUTPACING INFLATION. More HERE. And HERE. Donald Trump remains the greatest president for the working class and the poor during my lifetime.

EVEN THE DEMOCRAT MEDIA OUTLET THE NEW YORK TIMES FINALLY ADMITS TRUMP WAS NOT WRONG ABOUT THE TREN DE ARAGUA ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT GANG TAKEOVER OF APARTMENT COMPLEX IN COLORADO. And as we’ve seen over the past ten years, whatever they are claiming Trump is wrong about today they’ll eventually admit he was right about. All that changes is the amount of time it takes them to admit it. Continue reading

JULY ELEVENTH ROUNDUP OF NEWS, MEMES AND POLITICAL CARTOONS

Independent Voter Site Balladeer’s Blog does another current events roundup from an America where anti-Trump loons continue to prove that they make absolutely NO effort to determine if their insane claims about him are true

        For just one example, they’re still hysterically blaming things on Trump budget cuts THAT HAVEN’T EVEN GONE INTO EFFECT YET.

ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT PEDOPHILE RING BUSTED BY ICE IN MINNEAPOLIS. Democrats, who like to pretend such rings don’t exist, are outraged, of course. If they had their way the ring would still be in operation. Right, Governor Walz? 

DEMOCRAT MEDIA OUTLETS CLAIMING THAT THE THAI AND LAOTIAN-RUN RING IN MINNEAPOLIS JUST HAD A “CULTURAL MISUNDERSTANDING.” Democrats, can you ONCE side with victims of crime instead of the perpetrators? 

EVEN DEMOCRAT MEDIA OUTLET CNN NOW ADMITTING THAT THERE IS NO BASIS FOR BLAMING PRESIDENT TRUMP REGARDING THE TEXAS FLOODING. Same old anti-Trump tactics – hysterical shrieking followed days later by quiet corrections.

ICE RAIDS CALIFORNIA MARIJUANA FARM ON DRUG, ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT AND CHILD LABOR VIOLATIONS. More about the children being used HERE. Needless to say, Democrat Governor Newsome defended those arrested and called Trump “real scum” for the raid. Unreal.

PRESIDENT TRUMP MOVES TO PROTECT FORTY BILLION DOLLARS IN TAXPAYER FUNDED BENEFITS PROGRAMS FROM ILLEGAL USE BY ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS. Financially comfortable Democrats who don’t need to rely on those benefits like the working class and the poor do are, of course, upset. Continue reading

Here’s a mid-week current events roundup from Independent Voter Site Balladeer’s Blog, here in an America where ignorant, uninformed and emotionally unstable anti-Trump zealots continue to run around as mindlessly as the torch bearing mobs in a Frankenstein movie. Not a single rational thought among all of them.

TREASURY SECRETARY SCOTT BESSENT SMACKS DOWN MORE OF DEMOCRAT MEDIA EMPLOYEE DANA BASH’S LIES ABOUT THE BIG BEAUTIFUL BILL ACT. So far, no criticism outside the fact that it’s a goofy name for a legislative item has been proven right.

MORE ECONOMIC EXPERTS ADMIT PRESIDENT TRUMP WAS RIGHT ABOUT TARIFF MANAGEMENT ALL ALONG.

BERNIE SANDERS SUPPORTER NINA TURNER COURAGEOUSLY CALLS OUT THE RABID LIES BLAMING TRUMP FOR THE TEXAS FLOODING.

PRESIDENT TRUMP DOES AWAY WITH BIDEN REGIME RULE TO LET NON-CITIZEN FARMERS ENJOY UNION COLLECTIVE BARGAINING RIGHTS BUT NOT AMERICAN FARMERS. People warned Democrat fascists that their grotesque excesses would come back to bite them.

DEMOCRATS CONTINUE ENCOURAGING VIOLENCE AGAINST ICE AGENTS.     SAN ANTONIO CITY COUNCIL CANDIDATE MATTHEW GAUNA CALLED OUT BY DHS FOR HIS STATEMENT “I WANNA SEE A FEW DEAD ICE AGENTS, LOS ANGELES! DON’T LET ME DOWN”. What an animal. More HERE. And HERE. And HERE.       

HERE’S YET ANOTHER LOOK AT THE HATE-FILLED GIBBERISH FROM THE VIOLENT DEMOCRAT MOBS WHO PRETEND TO BE “PEOPLE WITH EMPATHY.”  Continue reading

HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY 2025

American flagBalladeer’s Blog wishes a happy birthday to the USA! What happened in early July of 1776 certainly needs no rehashing so in keeping with my blog’s theme of addressing more out of the way subjects this post will examine various events that took place on other July 4ths throughout American history.

JULY 4TH, 1778 – George Rogers Clark led his rebel forces in taking the British stronghold of Kaskaskia, near the confluence of the Mississippi and Kaskaskia Rivers. Clark and his Rangers were on a mission for then-Virginia Governor Patrick Henry.

JULY 4TH, 1783 – The Massachusetts Supreme Court is finalizing its written decision holding that slavery has been illegal in the state since adoption of the Massachusetts Declaration of Rights in 1780. 

continental soldierJULY 4TH, 1788 – The Constitution of the United States is starting to come into full effect this calendar year, instituting the government we are still officially ruled by. First elections are scheduled for later in the year.

JULY 4TH, 1789 – Congress passes a tariff that taxes goods imported in American ships at a rate 10% lower than on goods imported in ships under foreign flags.

JULY 4TH, 1794 – The “Whiskey Rebellion” is underway in western Pennsylvania.

NEWS, MEMES AND POLITICAL CARTOONS ROUNDUP: JULY FOURTH

Time for an end of the week current events roundup from Independent Voter Site Balladeer’s Blog.

TRUMP’S BIG BEAUTIFUL BILL ACT PASSES IN TIME FOR JULY FOURTH SIGNING CEREMONY. Another win for populist President Donald Trump. Bradley Jaye and others noted: “The bill, which codifies into law much of what Trump has done through executive action and unlocks much more that required Congressional approval, may be considered by history as Trump’s crowning achievement” AND “manages to include almost every campaign promise Trump made …”

        Trump’s bill also fulfills his pledges regarding “no taxes on tips, overtime, or social security.” Plus there’s the biggest middle class tax cut in history and full funding for the Border Wall.

JUNE JOBS REPORT: TRUMP’S POLICIES ADD ONE HUNDRED FORTY-SEVEN THOUSAND NEW JOBS AND UNEMPLOYMENT FALLS AGAIN. More HERE. Trump remains the best president for the working class and the poor during my lifetime.

DEMOCRAT MEDIA OUTLET CNN LAMENTS THAT THEY DIDN’T GET THE JOBS SLOWDOWN THEY GLEEFULLY PREDICTED Continue reading

THE PENOBSCOT CAMPAIGN: AMERICA’S REVOLUTIONARY WAR TRAGEDY

THE PENOBSCOT CAMPAIGN – Most sources refer to this military campaign as the Penobscot Expedition, but I feel the word campaign is far more accurate. At any rate, if it had been a success this combined land and sea effort against the British in 1779 would be hailed to this very day. Unfortunately, its failure has relegated it to the Memory Hole for most people.

This campaign was an attempt to drive the British out of the portion of Maine that they had seized and renamed New Ireland. Because Maine is central to this affair, I will first clarify a few things that some Americans as well as non-Americans can get thrown off by.

*** In general, we are all familiar with the original 13 Colonies that broke away from England during the American Revolution. Because Maine is not named among those 13 colonies, some people are confused when it is mentioned as the location for various battles of the Revolutionary War.

        Maine was a district of Massachusetts at the time. Similarly, Kentucky was not one of the 13 Colonies, but it was a department of Virginia, which is why Daniel Morgan’s Kentucky Rifles were part of America’s army during the war. Continue reading
