Hey, everybody. Welcome to today's news March 14th through 16th, 2026. I'm your host, Larry Swite, art bringing you all the headlines. You can find the links, the full stories below here at the Wild World of Politics.com. Don't forget, if you want my new book, America in the 21st century, you can grab it off Amazon. But if you want an autographed copy, email me at Larry at wildworldahistory.com. And if you want your updated chapters for Patriots history of the United States, covering the years 2018 through 2026, email me at Larry at Wild World of History. Now, before we get started, you know the drill. Like, share, by Larry, a coffee. Okay, here's our headlines. Susie Wiles has cancer. There are unfolding terror links in the Michigan attack. Trump's approval now is higher than Obama's or Bush's at this point in their
10 years. The news up today is always the history of tomorrow. Let's get started in political news. Chief of Staff Susie Wiles announced she has early stage breast cancer and will be getting treatment, but will stay on the job, which is really good news for President Trump. She is key to his administration. And she is the lead buster. Nothing leaks under Susie Wiles. The Punisher Pete Hegseth served troops lobster in state and the hoax news media had a meltdown until images of big Mike's surface showing the Obama's serving lobster in state to the troops. Oops. In the biggest blow to Big Tish James, Trump's lawyer, Michael Cohen claims he was, quote, compelled and coerced, unquote, to lie about Trump in his testimony before Big Tish. Now, we'll see if this results in anything so far. No, but he's gone to jail. Remember the nine fascists, so-called Antifa members who attacked an ice detention center in Texas? Yeah,
convicted. One for attempted murder, the other eight as accessories with terrorism charges. That's a good start. Oh, and that synagogue attacker in Michigan, his bro was a Hezbollah leader who was killed. Guess you could say in Spuja, right? And I guess pigs are flying as the MSN and CNN anchors called out Democrats as responsible for continuing the shutdown of the Department of Homeland Security. Both shifty the human lemur and Booker T and the MSGs were actually asked combative questions. President Trump has ordered strikes on Card Island, the main Iranian oil refinery depot, always untouched in previous conflicts. Did you know that? My opinion, those 2,500 Marines sent to the Middle East will occupy and possess carb. The latest poll shows 57% backing military action in Iran. Now, Trump announced his plan to reopen the Strait of Hormuz.
Meanwhile, St. Com says reports of drones hitting civilian targets and the Gulf states are wrong. Trump now has a higher approval rating than either 0 or W after 60 weeks in office. Cameras will be allowed in the courtroom trial of Tyler Robinson, Charlie Kirk's legend, assassin. Former security guard for Jazzy Watercrocket was killed by police serving a warrant when he pulled out a gun on them. Yeah, that'll do it. A Justice Department official said she personally witnessed Maricopa County, quote, in competence in running elections. Sorry, it's not in competence. It's criminal behavior and fraud, and I hope people go to jail over this. Washington State has enacted a new millionaires tax, which not only drove Jeff Bezos and Howard Schultz of Starbucks out,
but which will limit free agent spending by the Super Bowl champion Sea Hags, Buhu. What does Minneapolis like today? Check out this list. This is not Epstein related, but a Democrat former mayor of Gettysburg, Pennsylvania was arrested on child sex charges. This is very typical of the party of terror. Former Marine was convicted of handing over classified secrets to the Chikams. The Tuckster, whom I have never trusted, now claims a CIA is investigating him for foreign contacts, that is, with Iranians. After four years, his own dad, who had a voice of America, was suspected of being a CIA operative. Now, Jeff Childers provided a translated ex-post that says Trump, realizing that the Tuckster was communicating illicitly with the Mullahs, began feeding him false info, which had Iran looking in all the wrong directions when the
de-capitation strike occurred. In illegal criminal alien news, Tennessee's passed a law making it a state crime for illegal criminal invaders to stay there 90 days past their federal deportation order. Good. You know, it's not enough to be a naturalized U.S. citizen if you are also radicalized and we've got to fix that. In Transoid News, President Trump bans Transoid surgeries in prison. This one was a no-brainer. In economic news, Alex Carp of AI Company Palantir has a grim warning for the awfuls, you know, the affluent white, female, urban, liberal women, your time is up. He claims AI will transfer power to males, particularly in the job market and toward those who are more conservative. This can't happen fast enough as white liberal women are the bane of modern societies everywhere. You know what, I spelled bane wrong.
There we go. Happens. Ford has a recall crisis that hits nearly every model since 2020, and they're not alone. Toyota is recalling 550,000 cars, too. U.S. oil production off California is rapidly ramping up much to gruesome concern. Meanwhile, as David Blackman reports, an additional $1 trillion in pipeline capital is going to be needed by 2052 if the Earl is going to keep flowing. TSA says more than 300 agents have quit since the spume more shut down, too. Now, I'm just spitballing here, but you know, one of all TSA agents quit. We'd have no more lines of people frisking you or running your bags through X-rays, and we just, you know, traveled like we did before 9-11. True story. The last three times I've flown, I've had to endure a
growing pat down, and I'm in just sweatpants. It's just ridiculous. Uber founder Travis Kalinick, or Kalinick, I don't know how he pronounced it, bolted from California like everybody else here because of the very high taxes in the wealth tax. In international news, a massive energy deal has been struck with Japan resulting in $50 billion in Indo-Pacific investments in U.S. companies. Good. In March 2024, a group of Islamic Wacadoodles attacked the Krokas, a C-R-O-C-U-S, and that's in Russia, City Hall concert, killing 149 and leaving hundreds hurt. All 19 of the Jews' junkies were convicted. 19 got life sentences. I'm sorry, and many got life sentences. Not all of them got life sentences. Why did I say 19 twice? I don't know why I did this stuff there.
This, of course, is just another demonstration of the religion of peace, T-R-O-P, trademark. Trump warns nations they better pitch in to secure the Strait of Hormuz. He said, quote, we will remember. There have been rumors galore about Antarctica. If you watch the Reels or anything on Facebook, this is a big spooky thing. These rumors include Nazi bases from World War 2, alien sightings, indeed entire filled out cities. The latest is an admission here that there is a quote, gravity hole in Antarctica. Look at the first chart in David Blackman's article about the time series comparison or contrast about nuclear power in China versus Germany. It's stunning. Oh, and speaking of the Huns, Fraud Merkel has urged the migrant invaders to vote against the
AFD party, the actual German Democratic party that's for the people. Over at mediocre Britain, 40% of all housing will be for migrants by 2030. Yes, mediocre Britain is gone. In shall I call it pathetic Britain? Formula 1 racing has cancelled races in Bahrain and Saudi Arabia as the Iranian spooge turbines target civilian facilities. In entertainment news, talk about an absolute disaster. The movie The Bride, a feminist horror film, but aren't they all directed by Maggie Gillen Hall with a whopping, listen to this, $155 million production and marketing budget. So far, it's brought in $25 million. What? I thought there were a whole bunch of feminists out there. Even Avatar, fire and ash with its 400 million production budget, like the 200 million marketing budget,
has only grossed 1.4 billion, meaning it might just barely be profitable. Hollywood elites celebrating themselves at the Little Watch Oscars were treated to swag bags were $350,000 each. I don't need to tell you folks, but that's more than most of our mortgages are in medical news. A new Rasmussen survey shows that 56% of Americans think that China virus vaccines caused, quote, mass death. Yep. Meanwhile, a new paper in Australia shows that there were only there was only one explanation for the so-called excess death there during the China virus. Yep, that would be the Vax. Let's jump into Jeff Childers' column here about the ongoing effort by the New York Slimes to insist there are no Vax harms with its headlines today, quote,
confidential report calls for sweeping changes to track vaccine harms, unquote. See, we weren't wrong, but gosh darn it, the feds insist on actually tracking these deadly side effects. Said report has applied a new name to the Vax death and injuries, quote, post-acute COVID-19 vaccination syndrome. Doesn't that sound benign? This is crucial. As Childers points out, right now there is no code in the insurance forms for Vax harms, meaning there can't be any Vax harms. Not for long though. The advisory council, I'm sorry, the advisory committee on immunization practices known as ASIP or ACIP, I don't know how you say it, meets this week. The Slimes was dragged into reporting this, kicking and screaming, producing no less than three pro Vax ghouls who actually want to oppose people seeking help
or getting restitution from medical damage caused by Vax's, because the Slimes corporate paymasters include big pharma. You know, I think I'd actually agree with letting every single one of the deep staders walk if I could get just one. If I could just witness Dr. Fallacy have to crawl up the gallows steps. Anyway, as always, Brownstone, great outlet, does a terrific job of analyzing this report and then the catterwalling of the mingolese in waiting. New scans that make cancers glow will replace painful biopsies for prostate screens. Good. And finally, if you followed Mike today's news, you know that I've had stories recently about new population growth among rare tigers, leopards, whales, polar bears, and just about everything
else except Democrats who seem to be in decline. Just the latest, the otters are back. And that's good news. And I will see you guys back here on Wednesday. Glad I got through that one.
