What Shall We Bake Today?

Cookie bars are great picnic items—easy to bring, store and grab! When I make this recipe—Sweet Chocolate Caramel Squares—I will probably omit the sprinkles on top.

Ingredients

1 cup all-purpose flour

½ cup butter, softened

½ cup brown sugar

2 cups chopped pecans

1 cup flaked coconut

1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk

1 (11 ounce) package individually wrapped caramels, unwrapped

2 tablespoons milk

1 cup chocolate chips

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Mix flour, butter, and brown sugar together in a bowl; press into a 9×13-inch baking dish.

Bake in the preheated oven until crust is lightly browned, 12 to 15 minutes.

Sprinkle pecans and coconut over crust. Pour sweetened condensed milk over pecans and coconut.

Bake in the preheated oven until set, 25 to 30 minutes.

Heat caramels and milk together in a small saucepan over medium-low heat until smooth, 2 to 3 minutes. Pour caramel sauce over baked sweetened condensed milk. Sprinkle chocolate chips over caramel. Cool completely before cutting into bars.

ENJOY!

    The Republicans agreed with Dumocrats to remove very fair, and talented, William Pulte, from serving as Acting DNI in return for getting FISA approved by the Dumocrats. However, the Republicans moved so fast with the hearings of the Great Jay Clayton, current U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York, that Pulte would be gone before the Dumocrats would vote on FISA. Now, the Dumocrats are saying they will vote against FISA — So, the Republicans wound up having fulfilled their commitment, but Dumocrats broke the Deal. In addition, the newly nominated U.S. Attorney, Jamie McDonald, must be confirmed and blue slipped. Because of the ridiculous views of Republicans on blue slipping (Dumocrats are often willing to nix it), I may not be able to get the extraordinary Sullivan & Cromwell Partner, Jamie, approved, and I don’t want to take Jay Clayton away from the great job he is doing until Jamie is in place. Therefore, to add a slight bit of intrigue but, for the Good of the Nation, and the People of our Country, I will not approve FISA without THE SAVE AMERICA ACT going along with it. Not complicated, actually, the Republicans fell into a trap. Regarding the approval of our Great Patriot, Jay Clayton, we are cancelling the Senate Hearing RE: DNI today, and will not be going forward until Jamie McDonald is approved to be U.S. Attorney. In the meantime, Bill Pulte will remain as the Acting Director of National Intelligence. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J. TRUMP

  3. EXCERPT: “The FBI released an affidavit Tuesday regarding a foiled alleged terror plot on Sunday’s Ultimate Fighting Championship 250 event at the White House, which perpetrators were allegedly planning to attack with explosive-laden drones and snipers.

    At least five people have been arrested, and agents are working to identify as many as 18 others who appear to be involved in the planning on encrypted chats communicating with the alleged plotters, officials said.

    The affidavit identified three of the five apprehended suspects, including 19-year-old Tycen Proper, who was arrested in Ohio and charged with attempted murder and several firearms violations after he allegedly admitted to helping plan the attack.

    FBI task force officer Christopher Betts said in the court document that Proper’s mother reported her son’s unusual behavior to police in Ohio last week, highlighting his recent purchases of firearms and conversations with random people online.

    Proper also allegedly made “concerning statements,” including “making sympathetic comments about Adolf Hitler and posting anti-Semitic comments on Facebook,” according to NBC News.

    The suspect allegedly told investigators that his group was supposed to stage a protest on the north side of the White House, and while he was not planning to shoot anyone, people in his group were allegedly intent on violence. 

    “While the demonstration was taking place, the group would fly small, unmanned aircraft (i.e. drones) laden with unspecified explosive devices which would detonate over the north side of the UFC arena,” the affidavit said. “When the unmanned aircraft detonated, the intent was to force the crowd attending the UFC event and high-value targets (HVTs) to evacuate to the south.”

    Proper also claimed that the reason behind the planned attack was to allegedly jump-start a revolution because “members of the group believed that the United States needed to be torn down so that it could be rebuilt.”

    Another suspect was arrested in Missouri and identified as 32-year-old Daniel Eskridge, who was charged with conspiracy to commit murder, in connection with a plan to attack the event…..”

  4. “Your Political Party Is Code For Whether You Love Or Hate America — Despite their distrust of the institutions and concern about the future of the country, Republican respondents reported high levels of patriotism.”

    The Federalist, By: Skye Graham, June 16, 2026

    American flag hanging next to New York City skyscrapers.

    “As America’s 250th anniversary rapidly approaches, national pride among Democrats is alarmingly low. Ninety percent of Republican respondents reported being “extremely” or “very” proud to be an American compared to just 29 percent of Democrats, according to a new NBC News poll. This brings the share of Americans who fall within these two categories to 56 percent, a record low since NBC ran this poll for the first time in 2001.

    This partisan divide is not just present among everyday Americans. When President Donald Trump congratulated the U.S. men’s national hockey team for defeating Canada in the Olympics during his State of the Union address, many Democrats stayed seated and refused to clap. At the same time, other audience members broke out in chants of “USA! USA! USA!”

    In addition, many of the Democratic Party’s policies focus on serving the interests of foreigners over native-born citizens. Many states and cities have passed “sanctuary” laws allowing illegal aliens to remain in the territory without fear of deportation. David Bier of the Cato Institute said that in Fairfax County, Virginia, a state that enforces sanctuary laws, about one in five residents are illegal aliens.

    Gov. Abigail Spanberger, D-Va., refused to comply with Immigration and Customs Enforcement and the Trump Administration to deport illegal aliens charged with drug trafficking, rape of a minor, and other serious criminal offenses. The Department of Homeland Security called Spanberger’s Virginia a “hotbed of illegal alien crime.”

    Like politicians, leftist organizations also promote anti-American rhetoric. All of U.S. 250, an organization planning nationwide protests for June 27, declared on its website that “a white supremacist faction is pushing our country in the opposite direction,” and specifically attacked the “MAGA regime.”

    This does not suggest that Republicans aren’t concerned about the direction the country is headed in. Americans in both parties reported low levels of trust in government and civil institutions. Only 6 percent of respondents said they had “a great deal” of trust in Congress and the national news media. Eight percent reported this level of trust in the federal government as a whole.

    When asked if the American Dream is harder or easier to attain today than in the past, 78 percent of respondents said they felt it was harder, compared to only 5 percent who found it to be easier. This coincides with data showing that it is much harder for young Americans to buy homes and live comfortably.

    Nonetheless, despite their distrust of the institutions and concern about the future of the country, Republican respondents reported high levels of patriotism. Democrats, on the other hand, have very little pride in their country, and the party’s leaders, policies, and organizations show this divide clearly.”

  5. so, the orioles and grosbeaks are getting messy with the jelly–and it’s falling on the railing and attracting ants. I put a liquid bait ant trap–a new kind that sticks to a surface–and put it on the post below the feeder. an oriole couldn’t get tot he feeder because a grosbeak was eating there and must have smelled the bait trap? cuz he flew down and pecked at it and it fell off the deck and in the grass…so much for those.

    The company said Tuesday it’s bringing back fried apple pies for the first time in more than three decades. They’ll be available at most U.S. restaurants for a limited time starting June 23.

    McDonald’s is one of several fast-food companies offering semiquincentennial treats. Burger King recently debuted its Firecracker Cookie Pie, which has a sugar cookie crust and red, white and blue star-shaped sprinkles. Sonic is offering a red, white and blue slush float for $2.50.

  8. Just The News: “Lawyers of the man accused of killing UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson in 2024 will argue that their client was experiencing extreme emotional disturbance at the time of the shooting. 

    At a hearing for Luigi Mangione on Wednesday, Judge Gregory Carro said he would unseal records related to a defense in which defendants admit to the charges but argue they can’t be held liable because they were experiencing an extreme emotional disturbance at the time, according to CNN. The defense is available under New York state law for those accused of murder. 

    A hearing for Mangione earlier this month was sealed at the defendant’s request. Mangione’s lawyers argued the hearing would have been “very prejudicial” to their client if they decided not to move forward with this type of defense. 

    Carro gave Mangione’s lawyers until Thursday to turn over information related to the extreme emotional disturbance defense, including the name of their psychiatric expert. Further delay, he said, could preclude Mangione from using the defense at trial. 

    Prosecutors “need to know what the malady is that this defendant suffers and how that triggered an extreme emotional disturbance at the time and place of the occurrence. Nothing is going to be a surprise. I’m not going to let you surprise the people on the eve of the trial,” Carro said. 

    Mangione pleaded not guilty to murder and weapons charges in the 2024 fatal shooting.”

    Not The Bee, Joel Abbott, Jun 16, 2026

    Image for article: The official rape-gang report is here. Nothing can prepare you for it.

    EXCERPT: “The full report is finally here. From UK politician Rupert Lowe:

    I’m going to summarize the finer points here because detailed stories on individual parts of this report will likely follow in the coming weeks:

    1) The number of raped and trafficked British girls is in the hundreds of thousands…..

    2) The attackers are overwhelmingly Muslim foreigners…..

    3) The problem is geographically widespread, affecting all corners of the nation…..

    4) The rape gangs started more than 50 years ago…..

    5) Authorities purposefully and willfully ignored the mass abuse…..

    6) Victim testimony is overwhelming…..

    7) Whistleblowers were silenced and threatened with seizure of their assets and careers…..

    8) Conclusion…..

    Everything summarized here is only ONE HALF of the official report.

    The report goes on at length to discuss Islamic theology, political correctness and civil rights law in Britain, additional summaries, and a series of recommendations.

    You will not be surprised to hear that these recommendations include:

    1. Enhancing victims’ rights during the trial process.
    2. Harsher sentences starting at 25 years for offenders and a referendum to reenact the death penalty.
    3. “Every foreign national convicted of group-based CSE must at the very least be deported.”
    4. The loss of British citizenship for any dual citizen convicted of such crimes.
    5. Mass deportations, with a mandatory report on deportations to be filled annually by the Home Office (the UK’s state department).
    6. The investigation of mosques and Islamic organizations that are harboring criminals.
    7. “Ultra-selective” migration policies.
    8. “A dedicated national unit for group-based child sexual exploitation.”
    9. An overseas task force to rescue and repatriate British girls who have been trafficked overseas (many of the victims were taken to Pakistan or other countries and remain trapped there).
    10. A compensation fund for victims.
    11. A Childhood Sexual Exploitation Act to be passed by Parliament.
    12. Making it illegal for officials to hide crimes in order to keep from “inflaming ‘community tensions’ or inviting ‘anti-racist’ media scrutiny.”
    13. Mandatory annual training for police, social workers, and frontline responders on “group-based child sexual exploitation.”

    The report goes on, but I will end it there for now. If you made it to the end of this article, it’s because you care enough to learn what has been happening in the UK for decades.

    But it isn’t just the UK. This is happening everywhere all at once. Girls are being raped as you read this. We have to act. All of us. It’s time to slay the dragons.”

    Image for article: “Elliot” Page is getting mocked endlessly for commenting on “healthy masculinity”

    “Check out what this nutty broad has to say about what it means to be a dude.

    From The Blaze:

    Having now played the role of Elliot for over five years, the biological female — who divorced her ‘wife’ and leaned into her LGBT activism following the ‘transition’ — now apparently feels sufficiently qualified to define what constitutes ‘healthy masculinity.’

    Page went on to describe what “healthy masculinity” really means to her:

    ‘To me, healthy masculinity would be, well, you know what — healthiness for anyone to just, you know, love themselves; be able to care for themselves; ideally get rest when they can, you know, like, just the practical basic — drink water, like, eat a banana. You know?’ said Page.

    Wait … what?

    Page, 39, added in her rambling definition that healthy masculinity is ‘also just, you know, doing what you can to be intentionally and mindfully not letting yourself get, like, swayed or twisted by the rules that I feel like end up, like, leading to so many of the problems that we see that are, you know, do get inflicted by toxic masculinity, violence and abuse, just general cruelty.’

    Is it possible to read that gobbledygook without wondering if you’re having a stroke? Seriously, what does any of that even mean? “Elliot” has subsequently (and quite justifiably) been raked over the coals for it:

    Well said, us.”

    EXCERPT: “The Justice Department today announced that 15 members and associates of Direct Action Minnesota (DAMN) have been charged with various federal crimes, including conspiracy to impede a federal officer, multiple counts of interstate stalking, interstate threats, solicitation to commit a crime of violence, multiple counts of assault on a federal officer, and destruction of government property. 

    Over the last 24 hours, federal agents with Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) conducted a coordinated law enforcement operation culminating in the arrest of 12 DAMN members. Two DAMN members are at-large, and one was previously in federal custody on separate charges. 

    “As alleged, these defendants, which included members of Antifa groups, engaged in an unrelenting campaign of harassment and violence targeting federal and local law enforcement,” said Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche. “Their actions created a dangerous environment that threatened not only their intended targets, but the community as a whole. These arrests demonstrate the Department’s commitment to law and order and stopping organized political violence in Minneapolis and beyond.”

    “The arrests of these rioters is a win for law and order. If you lay a hand on law enforcement, you will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law,” said Secretary of Homeland Security Markwayne Mullin. “We have ZERO tolerance for violence against our law enforcement. If you assault or obstruct law enforcement, you will face the consequences.”

    “For those who choose to threaten or harm federal officers, the Department of Justice will hold you accountable,” said U.S. Attorney Daniel N. Rosen for the District of Minnesota. “The direct actions alleged in the indictment are un-American. And they will be met with swift justice.”

    REVEALED: SEN COTTON TIED TO ANTI-TRUMP NGO GETTING MILLIONS FROM USAID Senator Cotton sits on the board of International Republican Institute, which reportedly received $130M in taxpayer money last year—much of it from USAID. The group actively works against Trump’s policies while funding UN refugee programs. IRI spent $12M on travel and $14M on “benefits” last year. They even provide housing allowances, according to their tax forms. Now Cotton’s blocking Trump’s DOD pick. Funny how that works.

    “Who is Tom Cotton’s wife? Meet Anna Peckham Cotton, a former CIA officer who served as Assistant General Counsel at the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) and as Deputy General Counsel at the National Reconnaissance Office. Given her background, it’s reasonable to ask whether Tom Cotton is influenced by her past roles in east Asia?”

The lawsuit alleges that the New York Department of Health awarded PPL the lucrative CDPAP contract after conducting a sham bid process, and then, despite learning of PPL’s intent to deviate from the representations made in its bid and violate the financial terms of the contract, failed to take action to hold PPL accountable and to protect public funds from misuse, resulting in a fraud scheme that remains unchecked to this day.”

    “Trump Thanks Putin and Xi for Staying Neutral”

    Clandestine, Jun 17, 2026

    “Eyes on 👀

    At the G7, Trump offered thanks to Xi and Putin for remaining neutral during Iran. Trump confirms Xi honored his request to not sell certain weapons to Iran.

    This confirms my analysis that Trump had agreements in place with Xi/Putin BEFORE any action in Iran took place. This means Xi and Putin were in the loop in some capacity, and agreed to stand down while Trump took care of his business in Iran. Meaning that WW3 was never at risk, and Trump had the board secure before he did anything.

    This also means that Xi and Putin turned their backs on Iran, in favor of Trump. Xi and Putin didn’t want the Iranian regime to have nuclear weapons either. They just want access to Iran’s oil. They don’t want nuclear war in the Middle East.

    Pretty much the entire world agrees with Trump, that the rogue Iranian regime’s nuclear ambitions needed to be neutralized, and the US MIL is the only force capable of doing so.

    This confirms Trump has unofficial back channel deals in place with Xi and Putin. Sounds like Xi and Putin want justice for the crimes of the Obama administration also. Very interesting indeed.”

  21. Just The News: “President Donald Trump said Wednesday that the 60-day limit to end the conflict in the Middle East that was listed in the U.S.-Iran memorandum of understanding is not a “hard” deadline and he would be open to extending it if Iran is serious about negotiations. 

    The memorandum, which was signed digitally over the weekend but is expected to be signed formally on Friday, said both sides have committed to “negotiating and achieving the final deal in a maximum 60 days, extended with mutual consent.”

    Trump told reporters that he did not view the 60 day limit as the final deadline and downplayed the agreement as preliminary, according to The Hill.

    “I don’t view it as hard,” he said. “Just as long as they’re behaving, I really don’t care that much. It’s not final. It’s a memorandum of understanding, and if I don’t like it, we’ll go back to shooting at them, dropping bombs on their head.”

    A Trump administration official read the terms to reporters earlier in the day, which addresses Iran’s nuclear program, ongoing fighting in Lebanon, sanctions relief, and plans for the release of frozen funds.

    The terms did not include restrictions on Iran’s supply of ballistic missiles, which the administration has repeatedly touted as a focal point for claiming victory. Trump, for his part, has contended that Iran needs to be able to maintain its missile supply in light of the abundant military stockpiles held by other nations in the region.”
