<p style="font-weight: 400;">Speaking at the America250 kickoff event at the Iowa State Fairgrounds on Thursday, President Donald Trump took aim at Zohran Mamdani, the Democratic candidate for New York City mayor who has made openly communist statements, declaring, “Generations of Americans before us did not shed their blood only so that we could surrender our country to Marxist lunatics on the eve of our 250<sup>th</sup> year.”</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">Mamdani has made openly Marxist statements such as “the end goal of seizing the means of production,” while iterating, “we have to continue to elect more socialists.”</p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">

<p>&mdash; End Wokeness (@EndWokeness) <a href="https://twitter.com/EndWokeness/status/1939516740909621286?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">June 30, 2025</a></p></blockquote>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">“As you know, recently we’ve seen some in our political system attempting to overthrow the timeless American principles and pillars of our liberty and replace them with some of the most noxious ideas in human history; ideas that have been proven false,” President Trump stated. “Members of Congress and even former presidents have been openly embracing vile creeds such as socialism, Marxism, and straight-up communism.”</p>
<p><strong><a class="c-link" href="https://get.dailywire.com/freedom/?utm_medium=website&amp;utm_source=editorial&amp;utm_campaign=freedom&amp;utm_content=freedomeditorial" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" data-stringify-link="https://get.dailywire.com/freedom/?utm_medium=website&amp;utm_source=editorial&amp;utm_campaign=freedom&amp;utm_content=freedomeditorial" data-sk="tooltip_parent" aria-describedby="sk-tooltip-2388">JULY 4 SALE: Get Six Months Of DW+ Free</a></strong></p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">Then he turned to Mamdani: “In New York, they’re trying to elect a communist, Zohran Mamdani, the guy who wants to defund the police, take over the stores, and run the stores and have the people hand out goods. And when everything falls apart, it always does; it always works that way; it never has worked any other way, anarchy and dictatorships prevail.”</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">“This guy is a communist at the highest level and he wants to destroy New York,” he asserted. “I love New York and we’re not gonna let him do that. Generations of Americans before us did not shed their blood only so that we could surrender our country to Marxist lunatics on the eve of our 250<sup>th</sup> year.”</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">Trump then made a fateful promise, finishing with a flourish: “As President of the United States, I am proclaiming here and now that America is never going to be communist in any way, shape, or form. “</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">“And that includes New York City,” he concluded.</p>

<p>“This is a very dangerous and life-threatening flood event along the Guadalupe River! Move to higher ground! The National Weather Service in Austin and San Antonio stated. “More than 14 inches of rain have fallen in portions of San Angelo in the last 24 hours,” FOX West Texas <a href="https://www.myfoxzone.com/article/weather/san-angelo-flooding-rain-totals/504-b17e9d18-1660-49a6-85d1-0e41ca62a7bd">reported</a> at 9 a.m. Friday.</p>

<p style="font-weight: 400;">The Guadalupe River reached a level where it crested its banks and even surpassed the level of the famous 1987 flood. “Hundreds of other people along the Guadalupe River and its tributaries that night and morning had to be evacuated.

Flooding In Texas Causes Multiple Fatalities As Guadalupe River Surges To Record Levels

<p style="font-weight: 400;">After Israel killed the head of the Iranian emergency military command and then took out his successor three days later, the Iranian government decided to keep the name of the new commander of the unit private.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">Apparently, it didn’t work.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">The Mossad, Israel’s intelligence agency, had other plans.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">On July 13, in the opening strike of its war with Iran, Israel killed Gholam Ali Rashid; three days later, it killed his replacement, Ali Shadmani, Ynet News <a href="https://www.ynetnews.com/article/syavw2grgg">noted</a>. That prompted the Iranian government to keep the name of the next replacement secret.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">But the X account Mossad Farsi (Persian) posted a message on Tuesday asking its followers to guess who the new head of the Khatam al-Anbiya unit was, writing:</p>
<blockquote>
<p style="font-weight: 400;"><em>The Tasnim news agency announced that the Iranian regime will not publish the name of the new commander of Khatam al-Anbiya in order to protect him. Know that we know his actual name and are well acquainted with him. Unfortunately, such basic information is being hidden from the Iranian people. Please send us your guesses regarding his name.</em></p>
</blockquote>

<p style="font-weight: 400;">“More than 2,300 responses were recorded,” Ynet News reported. “The replies included threats against Israel, mockery of the unusual post, and suggestions such as Ahmad Vahidi, adviser to the commander of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps; former Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif; and Mojtaba Khamenei, son of Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei.”</p>

Mossad Farsi replied to a post suggesting that the new replacement was Ali Abdollahi Aliabadi. “The lucky winner who successfully guessed the ‘secret’ name is Mr. Behnam. Please contact us privately to receive your prize,” Mossad Farsi posted.</p>

<p style="font-weight: 400;">“Aliabadi previously served as a deputy minister and governor in Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’s government and, further back, as deputy commander of the IRGC Air Force. He has been sanctioned by the United States,” Ynet News explained.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">The account that had provided the new replacement’s name was apparently frightened that his guess had been verified, later posting,  “I do not receive money or compensation from any individual, institution or organization for the freedom of the Iranian people. I am independent and free. That’s why I can write here freely and without hesitation and be myself. For me, the freedom of the Iranian people is the greatest wish and the best reward.”</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">Mossad Farsi later posted that the soldiers in Iran’s military terror arm, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), have reached out to them, writing:</p>
<blockquote>
<p style="font-weight: 400;"><em>We expected it, but not to this extent! Hundreds of active IRGC soldiers and officers, fed up with this regime, are reaching out to us.

Iran Tries Keeping New Military Commander A Secret. Mossad Offers Guessing Game, Confirms Winner

<p style="font-weight: 400;">President Trump celebrated on Thursday the return to normalcy for the price of eggs, declaring they were “plentiful and inexpensive.”</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">Trump was responding to a tweet from Waffle House announcing that the 50-cent egg surcharge they had imposed for the last five months was officially off the menu.</p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">Egg-cellent news…as of June 2, the egg surcharge is officially off the menu. Thanks for understanding! <a href="https://t.co/xXE6giZhRe">pic.twitter.com/xXE6giZhRe</a></p>
<p>&mdash; Waffle House (@WaffleHouse) <a href="https://twitter.com/WaffleHouse/status/1940040194817696182?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">July 1, 2025</a></p></blockquote>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">“We brought the price of Eggs back to what they were supposed to be,” President Trump exuberated on <a href="https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/114789968096151564">Truth Social</a>. “When I took over on January 20th, the Fake News was screaming that, ‘Egg prices have gone through the roof, quadrupled,’ they said. Now they’re plentiful, and inexpensive. ‘Thank you President Trump!’”</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">In early February, Waffle House <a href="https://www.usatoday.com/story/money/2025/02/04/waffle-house-50-cent-egg-surcharge/78211715007/">instituted</a> its egg surcharge, saying it was the result of the &#8220;continuing egg shortage caused by HPAI (Bird Flu)&#8221; that had triggered a &#8220;dramatic increase in egg prices. &#8230; Consumers and restaurants are being forced to make difficult decisions. Rather than increasing prices across the menu, this is a temporary targeted surcharge tied to the unprecedented rise in egg prices.&#8221;</p>
<p>According to the USDA, the price of a dozen eggs <a href="https://www.ams.usda.gov/mnreports/ams_3725.pdf">soared</a> nationally in March to $8.17; it has plummeted to $2.54.</p>
<p><strong><a class="c-link" href="https://get.dailywire.com/freedom/?utm_medium=website&amp;utm_source=editorial&amp;utm_campaign=freedom&amp;utm_content=freedomeditorial" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" data-stringify-link="https://get.dailywire.com/freedom/?utm_medium=website&amp;utm_source=editorial&amp;utm_campaign=freedom&amp;utm_content=freedomeditorial" data-sk="tooltip_parent" aria-describedby="sk-tooltip-2388">JULY 4 SALE: Get Six Months Of DW+ Free</a></strong></p>
<p>Almost exactly concurrent with the apex of egg prices, on February 26, U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Brooke L. Rollins <a href="https://www.usda.gov/about-usda/news/press-releases/2025/02/26/usda-invests-1-billion-combat-avian-flu-and-reduce-egg-prices">announced</a> a $1 billion comprehensive strategy to “curb highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI), protect the U.S. poultry industry, and lower egg prices.” The five-point plan <a href="https://www.wsj.com/opinion/agriculture-secretary-brooke-rollins-my-plan-to-lower-egg-prices-6be0f881">included</a> dedicating up to &#8220;$500 million to helping U.S. poultry producers implement gold-standard biosecurity measures,” making “$400 million of increased financial relief available to farmers whose flocks are affected by avian flu,” “exploring the use of vaccines and therapeutics for laying chickens,” removing “unnecessary regulatory burdens on egg producers where possible,&#8221; and considering “temporary import options to reduce egg costs in the short term.”</p>
<p>On June 26, Rollins <a href="https://www.usda.gov/about-usda/news/press-releases/2025/06/26/secretary-rollins-provides-update-bird-flu-strategy-egg-prices-continue-fall">gave an update</a> on the five-pronged strategy, saying, “After reaching a record high due to the Biden Administration’s lack of action, wholesale egg prices have now dropped 64%, with retail prices falling 27% from their peak earlier this year.”</p>
<p>“When President Trump entered office, the cost of eggs was at a record high, seriously denting consumers’ wallets after years of awful inflation,” she continued. “On my first day as Secretary, we got to work to implement a five-pronged strategy to improve biosecurity on the farm and lower egg prices on grocery store shelves. The plan has worked, and families are seeing relief with egg prices driving food deflation in the April Consumer Price Index.”</p>

‘Plentiful And Inexpensive’: Trump Celebrates As Egg Prices Plummet

<p style="font-weight: 400;">Regents of the University of Michigan — who serve unpaid — now have 24-hour security because of threats and harassment from pro-Hamas factions.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">UM Regents Jordan Acker, Mark Bernstein, and Sarah Hubbard told <a href="https://www.jpost.com/diaspora/antisemitism/article-859787">The Detroit News</a> that the university assigned them around-the-clock security after their residences were vandalized with pro-Hamas, anti-Israel messages.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">“Since Nov. 17, 2023, our regents and executive officers have been subjected to extensive and targeted criminal acts, including vandalism of private residences and businesses,” University spokeswoman Colleen Mastony stated. “These incidents, detailed in a press release, underscore the unacceptable level of threats and harassment directed at our institution’s leaders and their families.”</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">“We have taken prudent steps to support our regents and executive officers and will continue to rely on our public safety team to continuously assess risk, consult with external law enforcement partners, and allocate resources commensurate with those assessments,” she added.</p>
<p><strong><a class="c-link" href="https://get.dailywire.com/freedom/?utm_medium=website&amp;utm_source=editorial&amp;utm_campaign=freedom&amp;utm_content=freedomeditorial" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" data-stringify-link="https://get.dailywire.com/freedom/?utm_medium=website&amp;utm_source=editorial&amp;utm_campaign=freedom&amp;utm_content=freedomeditorial" data-sk="tooltip_parent">JULY 4 SALE: Get Six Months Of DW+ Free</a></strong></p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">“The three regents said they continue to get threats via email and social media, as recently as June 9,” The Detroit News reported, noting that in May 2024, activists erected tents on Regent Hubbard&#8217;s front lawn and left on her doorstep &#8220;scenes of genocide in Palestine.&#8221; Her Instagram account was tagged with the message, “Regents, respond to our demands by the end of your board meeting this Thursday.”</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">Last December, vandals targeted Regent Acker’s home. Acker, who has three young children, said he has been getting death threats as recently as June 9. Reacting to a jar of urine being thrown through one of his home’s windows, he said, &#8220;Any time your family is being attacked for who you are and for what you believe, I think that&#8217;s a pretty scary moment as an elected official, but it&#8217;s unfortunately the world that we live in these days.&#8221;</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">“It&#8217;s been really hard on them. It&#8217;s been really hard on my wife. It&#8217;s been really, really hard on my kids, especially my 10-year-old, who was woken up by the glass breaking,” Acker added.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">The homes of former President Santa Ono and the university&#8217;s chief investment officer, Erik Lundberg, were vandalized last October. “In March, someone spray-painted ‘Free Palestine’ on the side of UM Provost Laurie McCauley&#8217;s Ann Arbor home,” The Detroit News noted.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">“This is something that the university has decided, it&#8217;s important to provide this support to their leadership. So it&#8217;s the regents and it&#8217;s also a number of other leaders at the university that have experienced these threats,” Hubbard said. “I feel that I can have this civil debate with people who have a different opinion than I do, and so it&#8217;s too bad that it has ramped up to this point where we&#8217;re concerned for our safety. It&#8217;s not a concern I have every moment of every day, but it&#8217;s certainly something I worry about because we see it going beyond the vandalism in so many areas around the country and in the world, and we don&#8217;t want to suffer that same result.&#8221;</p>

Pro-Hamas Activists Trigger 24/7 Security For University Of Michigan Regents

<p style="font-weight: 400;">Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy on Tuesday sent a <a href="https://ops.fhwa.dot.gov/memorandum/Governors_Safe_Roads.htm">letter</a> to every governor in America, as well as the mayor of Washington, D.C., and the governor of Puerto Rico, urging them to remove political messages from crosswalks, including crosswalks painted in rainbow colors that recognize the LGBTQ community.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">“Roads are for safety, not political messages or artwork,” Duffy told <a href="https://www.dailysignal.com/2025/07/01/exclusive-trump-admin-urges-governors-remove-rainbow-crosswalks-roads-promoting-safety/">The Daily Signal</a>.  “Today I am calling on governors in every state to ensure that roadways, intersections, and crosswalks are kept free of distractions.”</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">Noting that there were an estimated 39,345 traffic fatalities in 2024 across the nation and more than half of them occurred at intersections, Duffy implemented the Safe Arterials for Everyone through Reliable Operations and Distraction-Reducing Strategies (SAFE ROADS) plan, which would “focus on the non-freeway arterials within your State, including safety and operation at intersections and along segments, consistent and recognizable traffic control devices including crosswalk and intersection markings, and orderly use of the right‑of‑way that is kept free from distractions.”</p>
<p><strong><a class="c-link" href="https://get.dailywire.com/freedom/?utm_medium=website&amp;utm_source=editorial&amp;utm_campaign=freedom&amp;utm_content=freedomeditorial" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" data-stringify-link="https://get.dailywire.com/freedom/?utm_medium=website&amp;utm_source=editorial&amp;utm_campaign=freedom&amp;utm_content=freedomeditorial" data-sk="tooltip_parent">JULY 4 SALE: Get Six Months Of DW+ Free</a></strong></p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">Duffy gave the governors 60 days “to develop a list of arterial segments, including intersections, with the highest safety, operational, or compliance concerns that will be addressed by the end of Fiscal Year 2026.”</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">Rainbow sidewalks have proliferated across the nation in recent years. The list of cites with rainbow crosswalks includes San Francisco, Philadelphia, Atlanta, Milwaukee, Seattle, Chicago, New York City, Washington, D.C., Nashville, and smaller cities such as West Hollywood, California — where the first rainbow intersection was installed in 2012 — Key West, Florida, Huntington, West Virginia, and Ames, Iowa.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">“Crosswalk markings are classified as either transverse line or high-visibility,” the 2023 <a href="https://mutcd.fhwa.dot.gov/pdfs/11th_Edition/mutcd11thedition.pdf">edition</a> of the Manual on Uniform Traffic Devices for Streets and Highways — which is issued by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) of the United States Department of Transportation (USDOT) — states. “Transverse crossing markings consist of two transverse lines. High-visibility markings consist of longitudinal lines parallel to traffic flow with or without transverse lines. Crosswalk markings shall be white.”</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">“The FHWA is concerned that considerable ambiguity continues regarding how colored pavement can be used, especially between the white transverse lines of a legally marked crosswalk,” the Department of Transportation <a href="https://mutcd.fhwa.dot.gov/resources/interpretations/3_09_24.htm">stated</a> in 2013. “In 2011, the FHWA issued an additional Official Ruling<sup><a href="https://mutcd.fhwa.dot.gov/resources/interpretations/3_09_24.htm#fn4">4</a></sup> that crosswalk art—defined as any freeform design to draw attention to the crosswalk—would degrade the contrast of the white transverse lines against the composition of the pavement beneath it. In deviating from previous Official Rulings on the matter that concluded an increased factor of safety and decreased number of pedestrian deaths were not evident after installation, this 2011 Official Ruling stated that the use of crosswalk art is actually contrary to the goal of increased safety and most likely could be a contributing factor to a false sense of security for both motorists and pedestrians.”</p>
