Al Perrotta · Dispatches From the Bananas Republic

It’s Friday, June 19, 2024 and a new dispatch is in hand.

First off, a HUGE thank you to those who have already checked out our brand new Bananas Republic Shop on Etsy and ordered our “By George” 250th T-shirt.

Racing to figure out how everything works, work out the bugs, but it looks like the system is preparing to ship.

More items coming Monday.

Trump Signs Memorandum of Understanding With Iran, Potentially Leading to an End of Nearly Half a Century of Hostilities and a Stable, Prosperous Middle East

But in our top story, Taylor Swift and Travis Kelsey’s wedding now only days away!

Trump signed it while at a dinner in France with President Francois Macron. And didn’t get a drop of grey poupon on the documents.

The people who were clamoring for peace are now clamoring against the peace deal.

The Pope says he’s happy an agreement was reached. So I guess he and Trump are back to being BFF’s.

JD Vance Was Supposed to Go to Switzerland for More Negotiations With the Iranians, But That’s Been Put on Hold

“I’m disappointed,” the Veep said early Friday morning. “After being on ‘The View’ I was looking forward to dealing with some rational people.”

Iran Backed Out of Talks After Israel Blasted Lebanon in Response to Four Soldiers Being Killed by Hezbollah

Hezbollah works for Iran. Iran wants to squeeze more out of the deal. More of this and rather than Vance, Trump will be sending Hegseth.

Ships are Again Sailing Through the Strait of Hormuz

And yet the SS Minnow is still lost.

Barack Obama Presidential Library Opens

And no, Michelle wasn’t introduced with the song “What a man, what a man, what a mighty good man.” Thinking that is just wrong.

Interesting library. All the books in it were ghostwritten by Bill Ayers.

I especially appreciate the interactive exhibits where you say you’re Iranian and you’re given cash and a pathway to a nuclear bomb.

Or the exhibit where you get to cling to a gun and a Bible.

Sure, it looks like a prison in a sci-fi movie or the monolith headquarters of a bad guy in a Bond movie, but presidential libraries are kind of a big deal.

George W. Bush, Bill Clinton and the Autopen were on hand. Trump apparently wasn’t invited to the opening. I get it. Who needs a lecture on why Barack chose the wrong type wood for benches and molding.

Superstars like Stevie Wonder and Bruce Springsteen were on hand to perform at the opening.

People were enthusiastic. Congratulating Stevie on his design of the building.

(It occurs to me that Stevie is more a ready punchline over his blindness these days and we have forgotten just how remarkable and influential an artist he is. Might have to give “Superstition” a spin this morning.)

Contractors who built the thing say they’re still owed millions.

Lighten up. Enjoying yacht trips with celebrities costs the Obamas a pretty penny.

Today is Juneteenth … Which Marks the Day News of Slavery’s End Reached Texas

And which many celebrate the day off by running around in sneakers made by Chinese slave labor.

Seriously, how many Democrats who say they aren’t proud to be Americans are happy to take the day off to celebrate a historical moment only made possible by America enshrining that “all men are created equal” and then sacrificing hundreds of thousands of men to prove it.

MLB and the Libs in a Tizzy Because Three San Francisco Giants Wrote Bible Verses on Their Caps When Forced to Wear Special Rainbow-decked Pride Caps on Pride Night

Yeah. Don’t you miss the good ol’ days when the only thing pitchers had on their caps was dabs of grease to help them throw the ol’ spitter?

Meanwhile, the York Revolution Forfeited Its Game Last Night With the Southern Maryland Blue Crabs (YAY TEAM) When Several Players Refused to Wear PRIDE Jerseys on Pride Night

What were you saying? I stopped listening when you said “Crabs.”

On Last Day as DNI, Tulsi Gabbard Released Documentary Proof That Anthony Fauci Funded the Gain-of-Function Research, Worked With the Intelligence Community to Cover Up That Up and Hide the Fact That COVID-19 Came Out of the Lab He Funded, and That He Lied to Congress About It

And all those “We Love Fauci” signs that littered lawns all across liberal America cause global warming.

DNI Tulsi Gabbard@DNIGabbard

Today, on my final day as Director of National Intelligence, I’m releasing never-before-seen communications and documents exposing how Dr. Fauci provided millions in US taxpayer dollars to fund dangerous gain-of-function research at the Wuhan lab, worked with politicized elements

Given the death toll, this is one case where the cover-up wasn’t worse than the crime.

One thing you can say about Fauci, thought. He’s the only evil mad scientist who has his own bobblehead doll.

And that’s that for today. Have a wonderful weekend.
