Country Singer Zach Bryan Blames You For Misunderstanding His Incomplete Lyrics

By William Teach October 8, 2025 – 10:30 am

Since Luke apparently took down the video from his Instagram, here’s the tease

First off, I hate when musicians do this. Either release the song in full or don’t. Second, if you release a snippet with lyrics like this, don’t be surprised by controversy

Country singer Zach Bryan releases statement on controversial song, insisting ‘I love this country’

Country singer Zach Bryan released a statement on Tuesday insisting that he did not intend his new song to cause controversy after it went viral over the past few days.

On his Instagram account, Bryan previewed a new song titled “Bad News” that appeared to lament the policies and general spirit of America under President Donald Trump.

The song included lyrics such as, “My friends are all degenerates, but they’re all I got, the generational story of dropping the plot. I heard the cops came, Cocky motherf—–s, ain’t they?” and, “And ICE is gonna come bust down your door, try to build a house no one builds no more, but I got a telephone, Kids are all scared and all alone.”

The song continued, “The bar stopped bumping, the rock stopped rolling, the middle fingers rising, and it won’t stop showing. Got some bad news. The fading of the red, white, and blue.”

But, hey, it’s your fault for misconstruing his meaning

In a statement posted on an Instagram Story, Bryan wrote that “Bad News” was written months ago and that people need the “full context” of the song.

“This shows you how divisive a narrative can be when shoved down our throats through social media,” Bryan said. “This song is about how much I love this country and everyone in it more than anything. When you hear the rest of the song, you will understand the full context that hits on both sides of the aisle. Everyone using this now as a weapon is only proving how devastatingly divided we all are. We need to find our way back.”

See? Your fault. I have to wonder if he and his marketing team did this on purpose in order to gin up some controversy to increase sales, get some notice. If so, it will be a big fail, because country music fans tend to be pretty patriotic, and he may have just Dixie Chicks’d his career. He took the side of Bud Light during the wacko Dylan Mulvanny controversy, stands up for kids being given transgender drugs, and has criticized law enforcement many times. On the flip side, he has made some libertarian statements. He seems to take a middle road a lot, but, lets the liberalism creep out.

He continued, “I served this country, I love this country and the song itself is about all of us coming out of this divided space. I wasn’t speaking as a politician or some greater-than-thou a–hole, just a 29-year-old man who is just as confused as everyone else. To see how much s— it stirred up makes me not only embarrassed but kind of scared. Left wing or right wing we’re all one bird and American. To be clear I’m on neither of these radical sides. To all those disappointed in me on either side of whatever you believe in just know I’m trying my best too and we all say things that are misconstrued sometimes.”

As the saying goes, don’t start none, won’t be none. He decided to wade into politics with this song, so, he needs to toughen up. And, let’s be honest, most of Today’s Hit Country is really just pop with a country accent. Lots of autotune, computer generated music, wrong lyrics

… Well, a friend of mine named Steve Goodman wrote that songAnd he told me it was the perfect country & western songI wrote him back a letter and I told him it was not the perfect country & western songBecause he hadn’t said anything at all about mamaOr trains, or trucks, or prison, or getting’ drunk

That’s country.

Climate Cult Still Wants People Who Use Inhalers To Die

By William Teach October 8, 2025 – 7:15 am

Why does the cult think this is a good line of attack?

Is your inhaler causing climate pollution?

That small whoosh from an inhaler has a substantial environmental toll that could be putting some people with chronic conditions at risk, according to a new study.

Published Monday in the peer-reviewed Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), the University of California Los Angeles Health study looked at emissions from three kinds of inhalers prescribed for asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) from 2014 to 2024. So-called “metered-dose” inhalers, which release a measured puff of medicine when pressed, contain hydrofluoroalkane (HFA) propellants and accounted for 98 percent of emissions, according to the study.

Researchers found that the devices generated more than 2 million metric tons of carbon emissions, or the amount of annual emissions from roughly 530,000 gas-powered cars.

“Inhalers add to the growing carbon footprint of the US healthcare system, putting many patients with chronic respiratory disease at risk,” lead author and pulmonologist Dr. William Feldman stated in a news release.

Feldman added that there is still “tremendous opportunity” to switch to a lower-emission alternative for the good of the planet and patients’ lungs.

And, yet, none of the alternatives are close to as good, or inexpensive, as those currently available that the Cult of Climastrology is railing about. Can they not just mind their own f’ing business?

Feldman told the Agence France-Presse that only a fraction of patients truly need metered devices – older adults who can’t inhale with force, and very young children who must use spacers, a chamber technology that only works with metered inhalers.

In the U.S., Feldman said, the “vast majority of people could use dry powder or soft mist inhalers,” but insurance is less likely to cover them, making them more expensive.

Or, you could just piss off with your cult crap and leave these people alone.

MTG Breaks With Republicans On Ocare Premiums

By William Teach October 8, 2025 – 7:00 am

Obamacare was passed in 2010, went into effect in 2013, and, really, did anyone think we would be having an argument about it in 2025?

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene breaks with the GOP on Obamacare, calling to avoid premium hikes

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., broke with her party Monday evening by calling for action on expiring Obamacare subsidies to avoid premium hikes, adding a prominent MAGA voice to the cause led by Democrats.

In a long post on X, Greene, the far-right MAGA firebrand, made it clear she was not in Congress when the 2010 law passed.

“Let’s just say as nicely as possible, I’m not a fan,” she wrote. “But I’m going to go against everyone on this issue because when the tax credits expire this year my own adult children’s insurance premiums for 2026 are going to DOUBLE, along with all the wonderful families and hard-working people in my district.”

“No I’m not towing the party line on this, or playing loyalty games. I’m a Republican and won’t vote for illegals to have any tax payer funded healthcare or benefits. I’m AMERICA ONLY!!!” Greene added.

Now, is there some sort of compromise where the subsidies are kept for a period of time but illegals are forbidden from receiving taxpayer funded health insurance and care?

Consider

ACA Marketplace Premium Payments Would More than Double on Average Next Year if Enhanced Premium Tax Credits Expire

…

A previous KFF analysis, based on data released by the federal government, showed the enhanced premium tax credits saved subsidized enrollees an average of $705 annually in 2024, bringing their annual premium payment down to $888. Without the enhanced premium tax credits, annual premium payments in 2024 would have averaged $1,593 (over 75% higher than the actual $888). More recent data have not been released.

Based on the earlier federal data and more recent other publicly available information, KFF now estimates that, if Congress extends enhanced premium tax credits, subsidized enrollees would save $1,016 in premium payments over the year in 2026 on average. In other words, expiration of the enhanced premium tax credits is estimated to more than double what subsidized enrollees currently pay annually for premiums—a 114% increase from an average of $888 in 2025 to $1,904 in 2026. (The average premium payment net of tax credits among subsidized enrollees held steady at $888 annually in 2024 and 2025 due to the enhanced premium tax credits).

In other words, without massive government intervention the whole thing is a Mt. Everest boondoggle, not just a K2 boondoggle.

(Townhall) Americans now spend more on healthcare than on groceries and housing. Last December, CBS News reported that the average cost of a family’s health insurance had increased from $5,791 in 2000 to nearly $25,572 in 2024. Coverage for a single person quadrupled over that same time period ($2,196 in 2000 to $8,951 in 2024).

And a goodly chunk of this happened post-Obamacare. The thing is, Obamacare is here. The time to kill it was before it went into effect in 2013. Had Republicans voted for squishy Mitt Romney it could have been stopped cold. It’s here now. Until Republicans in Congress come up with a better plan (snicker, and not like Dems would allow it), we have to go with it. Find a way to keep the subsidies but exclude illegals. This is the reality.

Maryland Supreme Court To Decide If Cities Can Sue Over Climate (scam)

By William Teach October 7, 2025 – 4:54 pm

Whats’ the over/under that far-left judges in the People’s Republik Of Maryland rules against the climate cult?

Maryland Judges Weigh Whether Cities Can Sue Over Climate Change

The Maryland Supreme Court heard arguments Monday on an issue facing judges nationwide: Whether or not local communities can sue oil companies over their role in climate change.

The leaders of Baltimore, Annapolis and Anne Arundel County sued some of the world’s biggest oil and gas companies in 2018 and 2021, alleging a decades-long disinformation campaign to mislead the public about what causes global warming. The companies’ deception, they argued, encouraged the burning of oil and gas, which unleashed more of the greenhouse gases that are dangerously warming the world and causing damage in Maryland including storms, extreme heat and sea-level rise.

The lawsuits are part of a batch of some three dozen similar cases brought by local governments since 2017 against energy companies, trade groups and utilities in state courts. Both sides have notched wins and losses in early action, but none of the cases have made it to trial yet.

Many legal experts expect the Supreme Court to eventually review the thorny questions at the heart of the cases.

In Maryland, lower courts dismissed the suits. Now the plaintiffs are asking the state’s highest judges to reverse those decisions.

There have already been several rulings, such as this one, where justices have said “nope, states cannot do this”, hence, cities would not have that authority. But, if they want to try, the fossil fuels companies should stop selling their products to those governments, and should note in court that if fossil fuels are so bad then why do the cities use so much? Baltimore very much depends on being a rail and ship port. Yup, fossil fuels. The number of vehicles made in the US and Canada that come through Baltimore is amazing.

Victor Sher, the lead lawyer for the governments, asked the judges to consider similar cases in Hawaii and Colorado. In those states, the top courts have decided the cases could go to trial, overruling the oil industry’s contention that federal law should apply, not state law. He also disputed the defendants’ arguments that the lawsuits seek to regulate worldwide emissions, a task far outside the abilities of state laws.

And some have won. Hawaii would be a 3rd world country without fossil fuels. It would revert back to the 1700s, and most residents would leave. Colorado depends on tourists coming in to do things like ski. Travel with fossil fuels.

The seven justices pressed Mr. Sher for details on what the plaintiffs were seeking. If they alleged that the oil companies failed to warn communities about climate change, for example, what would the solution be?

“They would have to warn consumers, their customers, that the products that they are using are substantial causes of climate change,” he said.

So, what do they really want? They aren’t really saying.

UK Prepares For Pro-Hamas Protests, Starmer Calls Them “Un-British”

By William Teach October 7, 2025 – 10:30 am

Amazing. Starmer and the British government have imported all the Israel and Jew hating Islamists into the nation in record numbers. They’ve protected the Islamists. They’ve sheltered them. They arrest British citizens for mean tweets and flying British flags, but, barely do anything about Islamists carrying Hamas flags and screaming “Death to Israel”. The government has long tolerated Jew hatred. But, now

Keir Starmer calls student protests on 7 October anniversary ‘un-British’

Keir Starmer has urged students not to protest on the second anniversary of the Hamas-led 7 October attacks on Israel, describing plans for demonstrations as “un-British”.

Every child of Israel should be able to live alongside their Palestinian neighbours in “safety and security”, the prime minister said as he marked the anniversary.

That would be impossible. There’s a reason most Muslim nations refuse to take Palestinians in, and why Egypt has a massive wall separating Gaza from Egypt.

Writing in the Times, Starmer said protests due to take place at universities on Tuesday showed a lack of respect for others. He added that the pro-Palestine protests had been used by some as a “despicable excuse to attack British Jews”.

The prime minister wrote in the newspaper: “Today, on the anniversary of the atrocities of October 7, students are once again planning protests.

“This is not who we are as a country. It’s un-British to have so little respect for others. And that’s before some of them decide to start chanting hatred towards Jewish people all over again.”

Leftists in the UK have followed the lead of Islamists over the last few decades in protesting Israel, then learning to hate Israel, then learning to hate Jews. Government has been complicit in this. Including Starmer.

Starmer’s message was repeated on Tuesday by the education secretary, Bridget Phillipson, who told Sky News: “There is, of course, within our country the fundamental right to protest. It’s a cornerstone of our democracy.

“But my message is that, as we remember the awful atrocities that took place two years ago on October 7, I would just encourage those considering taking part in protests to pause, to reflect and to understand the deep sense of loss that many people in our country will be experiencing today, not least given the appalling attacks we saw at Manchester last week.

Again, same government takes the British flags from British people flying them in protest. Tells counter protesters they can’t. Stops pro-Israel protesters.

Don’t Forgot, Cold Weather Is Also Your Fault

By William Teach October 7, 2025 – 7:15 am

It’s only October, this seems a little early for normal cult propaganda

Expert dismantles myth about cold weather: ‘That’s exactly what scientists have been warning us about’

Amid a chilly winter, it’s tempting to dismiss the effects of the changing climate. But one expert explained how one doesn’t negate the other.

In a video shared by AAP FactCheck (@aapfactcheck) on TikTok, Susie Dodds of the Australian Associated Press detailed why folks in the Land Down Under may have been uncomfortably cold in July.

First, the middle months of the year are winter in the Southern Hemisphere. She also said Australian homes are notoriously poorly insulated, citing half a dozen articles about the issue. Dodds then detailed the crux of the issue.

“A cold snap in July doesn’t suddenly erase decades of evidence supporting the reality of global warming,” she said. “And while you’re rugged up wearing three jumpers indoors, parts of the Northern Hemisphere are experiencing record-breaking heat waves. And that’s exactly what scientists have been warning us about.”

So, see, it gets cold in the Southern hemisphere in July because it is winter, and, it is your fault. And warm weather doom is coming.

The consequences are myriad, including health problems, disease spread, and rising sea levels.

“Weather does not equal climate,” Dodds added, explaining that the former describes daily conditions, such as wind, rain, and low temperatures. The latter describes a “long-term pattern over decades,” and this has been changing outside of what would have been normal since 1850, or after the Industrial Revolution.

Doom! And the long term weather does create climate.

Scientists have proved that rising global temperatures are caused by humans’ use of dirty energy sources, which causes the release of heat-trapping gases into the atmosphere. They envelop Earth like an invisible blanket, preventing the sun’s warmth from escaping into space just enough to make a significant difference; 90% of this excess energy is absorbed by the ocean, making hurricanes and other extreme weather events more severe.

Droughts, floods, heat waves, and more are also happening more frequently. This is causing weather whiplash, one of the clearest signs that planetary systems are out of balance. As Dodds said, the changing climate results in not just hotter weather but also “more extreme, unpredictable, and chaotic weather.”

Well, the article is in The Cool Down, so, yeah, everything is doomsday cult propaganda.

SCC Mayor Bans ICE From Using City Property

By William Teach October 7, 2025 – 7:00 am

Mayor Johnson does know that federal law, particularly on immigration, trumps (sic) state and local law, right? And that localities are duty bound by law to assist federal law enforcement, especially when there are felonies involved, right?

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson signs order prohibiting use of city property for immigration enforcement

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson signed an executive order Monday morning prohibiting U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement and other federal agencies from using city property for civil immigration enforcement.

The order prohibits federal authorities from using city-owned or controlled parking lots, vacant lots and garages as staging areas, processing locations or operations bases for civil immigration enforcement activity.

The order defines as “staging area” as “any location used to assemble, mobilize or deploy personnel, vehicles, or equipment for immigration enforcement operations. This includes sites used for surveillance or logistical coordination,” according to the mayor’s office.

The order applies to all city-owned and city-controlled parking lots, garages and vacant lots, including Chicago Public Schools property, CBS News Chicago confirmed.

Additionally, the order supports private property owners, tenants and institutions to deny access to ICE and other federal agents working on immigration enforcement unless they can produce a warrant. The city will design and distribute official signage that will be given out, for free, to any private landowner or tenant can post on their property. The signage will clearly state no law enforcement official may enter for civil immigration enforcement, or use the property as a staging area, processing location or operations based.

And this gives the Trump admin all they need to deny Sanctuary City Chicago lots and lots of federal funds. Which won’t help when SCC has spent around $1.6 billion on illegals, money which could have gone to helping US citizens in SCC. Better schooling. Better streets. More cops in high crime areas. And more.

Still, I’d rather Trump let these sanctuary jurisdictions have the illegals for now and go after those in Republican areas first. Which would also mean illegals would stream into sanctuary jurisdiction to avoid being picked up.
