Hi, everybody. Welcome to today's news. And this would be the news for March 10th and 11th, 2026. I'm Larry Swiker, your host, bringing all the headlines. You can get the full stories, but without my glaring analysis below here at the wild world of politics, where you can also find my new book, American, the 21st century. Be sure you pick up a copy. If you want an autographed copy, you know the drill. Email me at larryanwhileworldahistory.com. If you want the two updated chapters for a Patriots history that are free, email me at larryanwhileworldahistory.com. And if you're just feeling good, buy larry a coffee. Now, remember, like and share this, I hate asking you to do that, but that's the algorithms of the day that we have to deal with. All right,
in political news, Iran strikes are back by 52% of the public. Meanwhile, Trump says the war is quote ahead of schedule and nearly complete. US has intercepted Iranian transmission, supposedly triggering sleeper cells in the United States. I say we put them to sleep permanently in a dirt nap. First, Fulton County, Georgia, now Maricopa County, Arizona, as the FBI sees his election records from the stolen 2020 election. Just before the FBI jumped in, Congress highlighted quote, co-mingled ballots. That's fraud in Maricopa County. This is going to be a slow process, but it will finally lead to some, I think, low level arrests. Don't expect cancels or co-me to go to jail. Meanwhile, in the FBI criminal investigations of Trump, the FBI was the criminal organization in this case. Cash Patel is building one case against them and is declassifying two others,
which still leaves one out there kind of in limbo. I don't know what's happening to that fourth case. Congressman Kevin Kylie of California, a Republican, will leave the GOP to refile as an independent, but he's still going to caucus with the Republicans, so this isn't really a loss. The wealthy Alexander brothers were found guilty of sex trafficking in their five-week trial. Yes, this is the guy we want for the Democrat nomination in 2028. Amazing Zoran just isn't stepping in it. He's bringing in more cattle herds, so he has more to step in. Now he's criticized a protest against ISIS bombers as filled with quote, white nationalists unquote, but he never once mentioned the evil murderous ISIS bombers who just happened to be Muslims. This guy's a disgusting pile of rabbit powder who isn't fit to lead a parade of goat herders in kilts. The Clinton Broadcasting System, otherwise known as CBS, ran a big story on
the L.A. County Medical and Hospice Fraud with 89 quote, providers sharing the same building. Now what's going on with this? As I've told you before, especially in Larry's commentary, if you sign up for my sub-stack, the subscription sub-stack, you'll also get my free commentary after this. Here's what I think is going on, folks. The Democrats don't like gruesome, the illegitimate booty-racist gruesome. I don't know why. I can't get a straight answer out of Democrats as to why they don't like this guy. Some say he's too corporatist. Others say, well, he's a loser. Others say, well, you can't believe him, but what's new? You can't believe any Democrat. So, well, I do not yet know why they don't like gruesome. It's clear the long knives are out for this guy. And I think this story is just one of many that's seeking to chop him off at the knees, which would leave amazing Zoran over here for the absolutely crazed, you know,
Islamofacious out there and the Woke crowd. And then somebody else for, say, 55% of the Democrat party. And I think what that 55% is going to end up doing is supporting cackles again. Because they know they will be crushed. Dukhaka style was Zoran, and he would be the nominee if they let him. So, we'll see. The administration is banning foreign nationals from getting further small business association loans, as it should. When it comes to power, energy, data centers, as always, Democrats are lying, but it worked in Georgia. Their lies work. They flipped commissioner races in 22 counties by simply complaining about high prices. Now, what Democrats ultimately will promise is lower prices, but then they're going to turn around and raise taxes and costs on utilities, leading to higher prices. The correct alternative is not for the state to do anything except require that all energy and water needs be met before issuing
any building permits for data centers. California's assembly got spooked, for example, by the backlash against a high energy prices there. And they're backing off a green program that would raise prices further. Texas doesn't seem to get spooked by anything, however, in Brownsville, it started the first new refinery in 50 years. That's good progress. It's not like Trump suggested that it's online right now. So, here's a kind of weird one. You guys remember the Havana syndrome a few years back where many of our people in the embassy down there in Cuba were getting sick and had all these weird symptoms. Well, US spies have acquired one of the Ruskies secret microwave weapons that apparently they were using down there to induce Havana syndrome. And now they're reverse engineering it to see what it actually is. Democrats right now are less
popular than ICE. However, in really good news for the Democrat party, it's now more popular than the Iranian regime. This Michigan State Democrat Legislature quit politics altogether because she said her faith in Jesus would not alight align with the Democrat platform of murder, lies and terror. Meanwhile, this Senate race is key. In Maine, Democrat lunatic Graham Platner has a lead over Susan Tom Collins. Now, I made all my estimates that the Republicans would hold a Senate based on Collins retaining her seat. R's may gain one seat in New Hampshire with Chris Sanunu, but now that that one might be offset. Folks, the Senate's going to be close. I think it may be a one-seat margin for one party or the other, unless, and you have to have this caveat with everything. Election seven months out. If the economy really starts to recover
and comes storming back, Republicans are going to win in a quasi-land slide. This big-o-land slide is expected. If the economy is still sour, anything can happen. They could lose a house and possibly even the Senate, although I don't think so. That fine upstanding upholder of the law, let's go Brandon Williams of Benghazi by the lake, otherwise known as Chicago, has rushed through new voter protections to keep people from checking IDs at the polling places. Jeff Childers always has a great column and he does an amazing job of contrasting or exposing hoax news headlines, such as this one from CNN, quote, Trump administration starts to panic over rapidly rising oil costs. Then the very next day, Politico reverses course. The White House isn't panicking about oil prices. You can't make this stuff up. What were the Democrat facts lines down or something? Did they
run out of gas? In Epstein file news, Politico is bragging. There will be no new Epstein prosecutions. Remember folks, Politico is a Democrat arm. It is a mouthpiece. Don't believe what they say. I'm just telling you what's out there. Imagine that New Mexico officials, not the feds, are launching an investigation into Epstein's Zorro Ranch south of Santa Fe, allegedly they're searching for bodies. You say New Mexico government? Right. One would almost think they're trying to get there to sterilize the scene and control the narrative before the feds do. In illegal criminal and the in news, Indiana passed a law allowing the state's attorney general to punish sanctuary county cities and colleges. Oh boy, Missouri passed a law closing another illegal immigrant money laundering operation, but Washington state passed a bill allowing illegals to become police officers.
So, comedian per comedian, Quinn Dale, when one of those guys stopped and says, Chucada driver's license, you just say, no, you'll say in cultural news, this is significant. Politico now is taking the rapture seriously as being a contributing factor to how Christians view events in the Middle East. Almost all believers in the rapture see it as the starting point for the great revival. I know there's some people call mid-trib rapturous, but most of them are pre-tribbed. They see this starting point of the great reveal of the anti-Christ who will in turn broker a giant peace deal between Israel and all the nations aligned against Israel and then will approve building the third temple in Jerusalem. Halfway through that building point three and a half years, he will walk into that temple and declare himself God. Over 40% of California teachers
will retire in the next decade as the state's teachers are older than the national average. Imagine that. Remember when Democrats kicked little Hitler, David Hogg out as vice president vice chairman, rather, of the Democrat National Committee because, well, he was too male, too white and little too crazy. Then they promptly replaced him with an older white guy, Ken Martin. Yeah, good times. Now, Martin is under fire for being, quote, dysfunctional. The party is broke and he's dysfunctional. But yeah, they're just going to clean up in the midterms, right? We'll see. A California bishop was fired by Pope Leo in the Catholic Church for stealing $250,000 for use in brothels in Mexico. Look on the bright side, folks. At least he wasn't in with young boys. In Transoid News, good. So-called gender clinics or better yet mutilation centers are closing.
Six of them in the last two months. Let's make it all of them. In economic news, US electricity generation hit a record high in 2025. But this Michigan town is resisting further solar expansion there. Always looking out for the little guy, aren't they? Connecticut Democrat lawmakers are trying to limit the number of self checkout lines so that grocery stores will have to hire more people. Existing home sales bounced a little bit in February, but they're still down year over year, but it's a good sign. Rodelstein explains how energy generation is about to become the most precious resource on earth. Inside the 3D printed robot built homes in California that go on sale this week. Exxon will move its legal home from New Jersey to Texas to protect its shareholders. Yeah, from whom? Oh, from Democrats. I just love this kind of news. Yamaha Motors is leaving
California. Howard Schultz of Starrberka is moving his family office to Florida and Howard Schultz of Starrberka and good old Howie's Starrberka. Sorry. Howie's Starrberka is now targeting union run cafes for closures. Costco is lowering prices because, well, gee, inflation is falling. In international news, having watched and listened to numerous analyses of the naval engagements in the Persian Gulf and the utter total dominance of the US Navy's anti-drone and anti-ballistic missile systems in a carrier strike group. I tried to sum up the views here in this sub-stack article called in harm's way. Trump said that the US Navy knocked out 46 Iranian ships. He said, quote, why didn't we just capture them and use them? The Navy boys said, sir, we like to sink them. Can't argue with that. Smart Manic is now being targeted by the DOJ
for election fraud in the Philippines. This is the second story I've had out of formerly safe Switzerland about violence there in the last few months. Now, six were killed and others injured in a bus fire that quote may have been deliberate. When the Ayatollah Khomeini, that old dude, led the Islamic revolution in Iran back in 1979. He rebuked the hereditary monarchy that was the position of the Shah, oops. Now, the son of the dead supreme leader Khomeini, Mottabah, as I call him, Mohito Khomeini will assume leadership, but nobody can find him for how long is anybody's guess. Currently, it's whereabouts, according to New York Slimes, is secretive. You don't say there are actually a lot of stories out there suggesting this guy's already taking a dirt nap. This pork muncher did his inauguration with a cardboard cut out. Shades of Joe Biden in the
rutabaga. Literally, yet the Slime says he is, quote, tougher than his father. Tougher, what? Tougher for vultures to pick at his smelly carcass. I don't know. I'll believe this guy's alive when I see him actually at a Starbucks. Saudi Arabia has restarted its rest, Tanura refinery, after the Iranian attack there. In part, due to that, oil prices dip significantly from 116 a barrel to now, quote, just 88 a barrel. And when they get to 50, we'll see lowering oil prices. Saudi Arabia also says it can move oil without the straight of horror moves. Hey, any of you remember the gas lines from the Ford Carter years? Yeah, good times. Welcome to the 1970s or at least the 1970s China, where there are massive gas lines. Check these out. New York City had nothing on this. The videos in David Blackman's link here. And the
Euros via the International Energy Agency have agreed to the largest reserve release ever. Europe's anti-oil campaign is resulting in a fertilizer crisis. Of course, China is imposing more export controls on fertilizers to make farmers squeal. Japan, meanwhile, will release some of its own oil reserve, sorry mullaheads, the world ain't playing your game. In entertainment news, there was a hazmat incident at Disney in which seven employees of the park, not cast members, employees, took ill. Two big stories coming out of NFL free agency. Remember just the other day, I had that big story with Max Crosby in the blockbuster deal going to the Ravens for two number one picks. No, he failed the physical or at least they didn't like what they saw in the Ravens camp. Revoked. Now, Daniel Jones, the one time released quarterback on the New York midgets,
who landed in Indianapolis and had a fairly good season before an injury. He has received a two year wait for it. $50 million deal. 50 mil for two years. Now, I think Jones is a top 15 quarterback, but not three. And this is top three money. Hang on a sec here. I just wanted to clarify that. Jones's deal is 50 million a year for two years. That is, he gets $100 million. $100 million. Guys, not a top 15 quarterback, folks. He might, certainly is not top three. He might be top 15. He's not top three. In medical news, this is a really, really big ruling as the fifth circuit affirmed class certification for United Airlines pilots in their vac suit in about 2000 of these guys. United Airlines didn't fire
them. Oh no, United just put them on unpaid leave until or unless they got the Vax. Jeff Childers quoted one American pilot who said, quote, we're the largest class ever certified against a private employer for religious discrimination. Almost 2000 were put on indefinite or unpaid leave or terminated. So this is a very big deal. You're going to start to see the lawsuits roll now. This former major lead prospect is suing the Chicago White socks baseball team for basically forcing him to take the Pfizer Vax. They would allow him even to go to another team without taking the Vax. When he finally did take the Vax, it ended his career. It caused all sorts of problems. His arm is screwed up. He can't pitch. New Zealand knew it was vaccinating kiddos against medical advice and did so anyway. That's the next one to be sued into a Bolivian. And finally,
this is a really sad story actually. Initially, it was reported as rampaging youths who killed a popular teacher during a prank. In fact, the kids were doing what almost all of us did while in high school. I did it. Toilet papering, a teacher's yard in good fun. Apparently he came out in the dark and surprised them. They took off in a car. He fell in the street whereupon without seeing him, they ran over him. Then they stopped, stayed, tried to perform CPR called 911. The family of the teacher is asking for forgiveness for the kids. I think I would too in this case. It's tragic. These weren't carnal murderers, just unlucky pranksters. So let's end on a happier note, shall we? The Babylon B says Iran is giving Democrats tips on how to run a country with a dead leader. Also from the B, the Iranians warned Trump they
have an unlimited supply of supreme leaders. You got to love the B. Anyway, that's it for today. I will see you guys back here on Friday. Remember like, share, buy Larry a coffee. If you haven't subscribed to my substack, please do so. I put out several free substacks, but I also put out the best stuff in the paid subscription. So check it out. Get the new book. America is the 21st century, and I'll see you all back here on Friday.
