HALF-FULL REPORT 05/08/26

Dr. Jack Wheeler May 8, 2026

Let’s start this HFR with a fun tribute to the world’s most extraordinary couple, America’s President and First Lady – performed in admiration of them on Israel’s “Dance with the Stars” TV by Israeli dancers Haim Pershtein and Taylor Malkov.

It’s a reminder of how much our POTUS and FLOTUS are revered by so many millions throughout America, Israel, and the world despite all the pathological TDS of the world-wide Left.

************

If you watched on Wednesday night (5/06) the debate between the three main candidates for Mayor of Los Angeles, you witnessed the emergence of Spencer Pratt into MAGA stardom. Here’s his reaction to Demtard LA Councilwoman Nithya Raman’s dismissal of him as a “MAGA Republican”:

And it’s not just this debate. His ads, one after the other, are blowing everyone away. This one blew Dan Bongino away. Benny Johnson says it’s the best political ad he’s ever seen:

LA is worth saving. Vote Spencer Pratt. pic.twitter.com/GpQpnfsuJe

Spencer really could be the savior of Los Angeles. Keep your eye on this guy.

Lots more good and fun stuff to keep you eye on in this HFR. And get ready for a video Rod Martin sent me – it’ll tear your eyes up, as it did him and me.

THE NAZI LEFT AND THE SOURCE OF TRUMP HATRED

Dr. Jack Wheeler May 4, 2026

[This Monday’s Archive was originally published on June 9, 2017. Now, with the 5^th attempt on President Trump little more than a week ago, it’s critical to understand what’s motivating the lunatic White Auto-Nazi Left, and what at least a partial solution might be.]

TTP, June 9, 2017

This is no hyperbole. Calling someone a “Nazi” is, along with “Fascist” the most ignorantly over-used hyperbolic insult the Left can hurl at anyone they hate.

Like the insult “Racist,” the Left has divested these insults of meaning, as are schoolyards taunts, “You stink!” or yelling “Boo!” and hissing at a referee’s bad call at a football game.

To call someone a Nazi for real is serious business. It’s accusing them of wanting to commit racial slaughter of fellow human beings on a massive scale. It’s accusing them of advocating a politics of criminal insanity, of being irretrievably evil and criminally insane themselves.

Yet that is what the Left in America is becoming before our eyes in broad daylight. You want to know how Germans, one of the most intelligent, accomplished, and cultured people on the planet became Nazis in the 1930s – look at what is happening to the Left, to the Democrat Party, to the Fake News Media right now.

The circumstances and proximate causes are different. History does not repeat itself. Here is what is happening now.

CINCO DE FARSA – THE FIFTH OF FARCE

Dr. Jack Wheeler May 5, 2026

Welcome to the TTP’s annual May 5^th tradition of explaining la verdad, the truth, about today. That’s so you’ll understand why it should be called Cinco de Farsa, The Fifth of Farce.

Last Tuesday (05/05) millions of us gringos celebrated May 5^th. Yet Cinco de Mayo is a phony tradition, a joke on Los Norteamericanos, then exploited as a marketing gimmick by Tex-Mex restaurant chains as an excuse for us to get wasted on José Cuervo.

Yet before you get lost in Margaritaville, here’s the true history of Mexico. You’ll learn more about Mexico’s history in ten minutes than you ever did in school or anywhere else. With plenty of cool maps so you can win any bar bet on what really happened – plus an awesome John Wayne video clip at the end that’s very explanatory.

To begin with: Nobody in Mexico cares about May 5^th. Only we, us gringos, pretend to. For if you ask just about any reveler at the nearest Pancho Villa’s Cantina or some such Mexican-themed bar anywhere in the US just what is being celebrated on May 5^th, you’ll get either a blank stare or “It’s their July 4^th” ignorance. So here’s the real story.

THE WAR POWERS ACT IS UNCONSTITUTIONAL. IT’S ALSO UNWORKABLE

Rod D. Martin May 6, 2026

Friday, May 1st marked the 60th day of President Trump’s Operation Epic Fury against Iran.

Supposedly, reaching that date without explicit Congressional approval means the War Powers Act’s automatic termination provision kicks in.

Supposedly.

In reality, the War Powers Act of 1973 is both unconstitutional and unworkable. It’s also unclear in a key respect the President has already made use of.

Can Congress stop the President? Certainly. Can the War Powers Resolution? No.

That distinction matters. Congress has enormous constitutional power over war. It can declare war. It can fund, or crucially, refuse to fund war. It can limit, condition, or prohibit specific military actions. If necessary, it can impeach a rogue President.

But aside from the funding question, if it wants to do any of these things, the Constitution requires Congress to affirmatively act.

THE END OF THE DEMOCRAT PARTY AS WE KNOW IT

Rick Moran May 5, 2026

Chief Justice John Roberts has disappointed the right far more often than pleased them.

Nevertheless, the Chief gave the best response to the notion that ending racial discrimination requires piling minorities into a few districts so they end up being a majority.

“The way to stop discrimination on the basis of race is to stop discriminating on the basis of race.”

(Head slap and a hearty "duh.")

THE GOLDEN STATE HAS FALLEN – WELCOME TO THE ISLAMIC REPUBLIC OF CALIFORNIA

Rabbi Michael Barclay May 6, 2026

On April 8, the California Assembly Committee on Public Employment and Retirement voted 19–0 to adopt AB2017, followed on April 22 by the California Assembly Committee on Appropriations, which voted 7–0 to adopt the bill.

And with those votes, all that is left for this to become California law is the passing of it by the State Assembly and Senate and approval by the governor.

And with it, the state of California will no longer exist as we know it, but will become the Islamic Republic of California.

Introduced by California Assemblyman Matt Haney (D-San Francisco 17th District) at the behest of CAIR, the bill seeks to officially recognize the Islamic holidays of Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha as California state holidays.

There are no holidays from other religions that are recognized as state holidays in California. Rosh Hashanah, Yom Kippur, Ash Wednesday, Good Friday, and Epiphany are all extremely important holidays in Judaism and Christianity. But none of them are recognized as California state holidays.

But according to Haney and the California legislature, apparently, Islamic holidays are much more important to the state than either Judaism or Christianity.

This bill is clearly unconstitutional, as it is in direct contradiction to the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment: “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion or prohibiting the free exercise thereof . . .”

By placing two Islamic holidays as official state holidays, they are respecting the establishment of a specific religion.

But the problem is greater than just their violation of the Constitution in attempting to pass this bill. The holidays themselves, Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha, are expressions and manifestations of the very worst aspects of Islam.

STARMERGEDDON!

Beege Welborn May 7, 2026

Could this be the swan song for the embattled and inept Prime Minister of England?

The chance of a change at No. 10 has even earned its own tag name.

STARMERGEDDON

The United Kingdom, pretty much all of it, goes to the polls today.

In Scotland and Wales, they'll be electing all members of their Parliaments. In England, it will be members of the councils who run every facet of life in the cities and counties throughout the country.

Prime Minister Keir Starmer's base as titular Labour Party leader is in the commanding number of councils his party controlled as of the last election, the one that brought him to power.

That hold over the local base is seen as very much in peril today, and, in some instances, councils that have been traditionally Labour strongholds for a century or so are expected to fall to challengers from either local parties - like the Welsh Plaid Cymru - or to Nigel Farage's Reform surging movement.

Starmer's last-minute appeal to the British public to 'think of all Labour's done for you' with his requisite slap at the upstart and not socially acceptable Reform, felt a little flat and desperate.

MASTERING ENTROPY

Joel Wade May 7, 2026

Entropy is a term from physics that describes the tendency for matter to move from order into disorder. Life can be seen as a process that is deliberately working against entropy.

If you ever watched the old Get Smart TV show, or the more recent movie, the good guys were called “Control,” and the bad guys were “Chaos.” For living creatures like us, that pretty well describes the situation.

Chaos is where entropy draws everything naturally; control is the conscious ordering, the structure that we have to impose on ourselves and our environment in order to survive and flourish.

For most living creatures, instincts take charge of a lot of the necessary ordering which life requires; finding food, mating, sleep cycles, protective behavior, etc. The Austrian physicist Erwin Schrodinger in his book, “What is Life,” proposed a molecule that directed these processes to counter entropy with “negative entropy,” and his hypothesis became an inspiration for Watson and Crick’s search for and discovery of DNA.

But we humans are different in a fundamental way: our basic survival tool is our mind, and unlike instinctual animals, we can choose to use our basic tool of survival… or not.

FLASHBACK FRIDAY: A REAL RUSSIAN CHURCH

Dr. Jack Wheeler May 8, 2026

This is the wooden Russian Orthodox Church in Karakol, Kyrgyzstan. It was built in the 1890s when Karakol was a garrison town in the furthermost reaches of the Russian Imperial Empire with China just on the other side of Tien Shan Mountains.

In the atheist/communist Soviet Union it was used variously as a school, gymnasium, and warehouse, anything but a church. After Kyrgyzstan gained its independence with the collapse of the Soviet Union, it was lovingly restored by the people of Karakol.

All the various ethnicities comprising Karakol are welcome here – Christian Russians and Christian Kyrgyz, Uighur Moslem refugees escaping Chicom China, ethnic Han Chinese Moslems called Dungans escaping for the same reason, Buddhist and pagan Kazakhs. The interior is lavishly decorated with Christian art and paintings of Christian saints – no Islamic or Buddhist or any other religious art, just Christian. Yet all are welcome to pray in this haven of refuge and peace in their own way.

This is a Russian Church very distinct from those controlled by Moscow run by the Kremlin as a propaganda arm of the KGB/FSB. It is a real Russian Christian Church instead. Come here to feel to the spiritual serenity for yourself. (Glimpses of Our Breathtaking World #221 photo ©Jack Wheeler)

PENA PALACE

Dr. Jack Wheeler May 7, 2026

Built as the summer residence of the Portuguese Royal family almost 200 years ago, Pena Palace stands atop the pinnacle of the Sintra mountains with stunning views of the Atlantic Ocean far below.

Today a museum showpiece and World Heritage Site, it is one of the most spectacular castles in all Europe. (Glimpses of Our Breathtaking World #231 photo ©Jack Wheeler)

SPITUK GOMPA

Dr. Jack Wheeler May 6, 2026

The Tibetan Monastery or “Gompa” of Spituk overlooks the Upper Indus as it flows out of Chinese Tibet and towards Baltistan in Pakistan. The Indus here is the geological dividing line between the ancient Karakorum mountains and the younger Himalayas (40+ million years old and growing: Mount Everest rises 2 inches every ten years).

We’re in Indian Tibet here, a region called Ladakh where Tibetan culture flourishes freely. Wheeler Expeditions first explored Indian Tibet – including running the remote Zanskar River tributary of the Upper Indus, one the world’s most thrilling whitewater experiences – in 1992.

THE GRAND PRISMATIC SPRING OF YELLOWSTONE

Dr. Jack Wheeler May 5, 2026

There are places in our world so staggeringly beautiful to have to see them to believe they exist. Yet those people walking along the foot bridge can’t see what you’re looking at. That has to be in the air, hovering from high above in a helicopter. We live in a world of such beauty it really does take your breath away. And best of all, the beauty of the Grand Prismatic Spring of Yellowstone is right here in America.

We got a Glimpse of Horseshoe Bend in northern Arizona and reflected on how much more there was to experience in just that region of the American West. And that’s just one region, one part of one of the most spectacular places in all Creation.

Here we are at Yellowstone in Wyoming, a wonderland by itself. Just to the south are the Grand Tetons. To the west is the Sawtooth Range and the Middle Fork of the Salmon River – one of the best whitewater runs on the planet. It goes endlessly on and on. America the Beautiful is not just a song – it’s glorious reality. (Glimpses of Our Breathtaking World #135, photo ©Jack Wheeler)

BALLOONS OVER BURMA

Dr. Jack Wheeler May 4, 2026

From the 900s to the 1200s, the Pagan Empire built over 10,000 Buddhist temples. 2,200 remain on the plains of Pagan today, one of the world’s most wondrous sights – especially if you see them from above in a hot air balloon. It is truly astounding how much there is to explore and experience in Burma. We’ll be there once more for it all next year. I hope you will be one of your fellow TTPers to join us.

HALF-FULL REPORT 05/01/26

Dr. Jack Wheeler May 1, 2026

Welcome to the May Day HFR! It’s a TTP tradition to call May 1^st Commie Day, today attached below as an Addendum. And what better day to celebrate the Doom of the Democrats graphically represented by the map above?

For as you well know, Louisiana 6^th is the Congressional District SCOTUS ruled 6-3 ereyesterday, Wednesday April 29, as an “unconstitutional racial gerrymander.”

So you get to laugh your head off at the woke toad-brain the Dems have as their House Minority Leader whining about what just happened: "Now, we're at a point, where affirmative action is gone. Diversity is gone. Equity gone. Inclusion gone. Racial tolerance gone. Voting Rights Act, largely gone! But guess what, extremists – we’re still here, and weren’t not going anywhere."

🚨 JUST IN: Hakeem Jeffries delivers MAJOR MESSAGE for all of America to hear after the Supreme Court ruling — and he's FURIOUS

Music to your ears, yes? And guess what, Demtards? You’re right, you aren’t going anywhere, you’re doomed to staying in minority status, House & Senate. You can now kiss your dream goodbye of winning the midterms, impeaching Trump yet again, ruining America – it’s all gone, da svidanya, arrivederci, adios, you are in the ashcan of history.

This really is a fabulous HFR. Wait ‘till you hear about Michelle Obama and Cialis. So much more. Saddle up!
