In the Middle East, the U.S. is still winning, and there are still no boots on the ground. The U.S. also reached a new energy deal with Asia-Pacific allies.
Meanwhile in California, dead people are claiming government benefits.
Epic Fury: U.S. Torches Remnants of Iranian Capabilities, New Supreme Leader Might Be Dead
The United States maintains overwhelming military dominance in the Middle East through Operation Epic Fury, a joint campaign with Israel that has decimated Iran’s navy, missile capabilities, air defenses, and key infrastructure since late February 2026.

Multiple carrier strike groups, advanced fighters, and precision strikes ensure U.S. air superiority and control over critical areas like the approaches to the Strait of Hormuz. Recent actions include decisive strikes on Kharg Island to disrupt Iran’s oil exports and threats to keep shipping lanes open.
President Trump asserts leadership, demanding Iranian surrender amid the ongoing degradation of Tehran’s military power. He also believes the new Iranian leader is dead, which may very well be true.
Asia-Pacific Nations Make $57 Billion Energy Deal with U.S.
The United States secured $57 billion in 22 energy deals with Asia-Pacific allies during the Indo-Pacific Energy Security Forum in Tokyo, as announced by Interior Secretary Doug Burgum on March 15, 2026.

These agreements, revised upward from an initial $56 billion, involve American companies supplying oil and other energy resources. Burgum highlighted Japan’s increased purchases of U.S. oil and its leadership in releasing reserves to stabilize markets.
In addition to strengthening energy security ties, the deals reduce allies’ reliance on adversarial suppliers.
Michigan Synagogue Attacker Came From Lebanon, Got U.S. Citizenship Under Obama
On March 12, 2026, Ayman Mohamad Ghazali, a 41-year-old born in Lebanon who gained citizenship during the Obama era, rammed his vehicle into Temple Israel synagogue in West Bloomfield Township, Michigan.
He then exchanged gunfire with security before dying from a self-inflicted gunshot wound. No children, staff, or congregants were killed, though a security officer was injured and the building caught fire.
Ghazali had immigrated to the U.S. in 2011 as the spouse of a citizen and was naturalized in 2016.
Ohio Democrat Missed Email Invite in Spam Folder, Sued Kennedy Center
Rep. Joyce Beatty (D-OH), an ex officio member of the Kennedy Center board, alleged in a lawsuit that President Trump and the board purposely excluded her from a March 16, 2026, meeting on the center’s overhaul.

However, court filings revealed the invitation had been sent to her personal email but landed in her spam folder. After further searching, prompted by the defendants, her legal team confirmed receipt and acknowledged she could attend.
The claimed exclusion stemmed from her oversight in checking spam, not intentional discrimination. It’s not about skin color. It’s about some people being dumb, craving attention, and got too excited at the chance to be a victim. Idiot.
Rock Legend Tells Celebrities to Stop Preaching Politics
Gene Simmons, in a March 10, 2026, TMZ interview, bluntly told wealthy Hollywood celebrities preaching politics to “shut the fuck up” and focus on their art instead.
He declared that “nobody cares what you think,” criticizing out-of-touch stars like Ben Stiller and Mark Ruffalo who lecture everyday Americans from their mansions and Rolls-Royces. Simmons emphasized that ordinary people work hard and resent being preached to by the privileged.
His advice: do your job in entertainment and keep political opinions private. Will the celebrities listen? I think we all know the answer.
Failing BuzzFeed Likely to Fold, Again
BuzzFeed reported dismal 2025 earnings with a $57.3 million net loss, prompting the company to express “substantial doubt” about its ability to remain in business due to insufficient liquidity for the next year.

The collapse of BuzzFeed is due to its poor content quality, with low audience engagement shown by near-zero comments on most stories. Americans have turned away from the outlet’s far-left, condescending style, favoring more honest and relatable media.
This mirrors the decline of similar woke sites like Vice, Gawker, the Washington Post, and many others. Will these obnoxious Marxist outlets finally listen and learn? I think we all know the answer to that.
94,000 Dead People Receiving Lifeline Benefits in Gavin Newsom’s California
FCC Chairman Brendan Carr revealed on March 10, 2026, that an FCC inspector general report found over 94,000 dead people in California were receiving federal Lifeline subsidies, a program the state vets for eligibility.
Carr described the Lifeline program as highly vulnerable to fraud over the years. The FCC revoked California’s authority to handle vetting, shifting to a federal process requiring proof of a living beneficiary.

Carr also highlighted Gov. Gavin Newsom’s incompetence, citing a failed $450 million pledge to modernize the state’s outdated 911 system. Newsom dreams of being President of the United States. That will never happen.
