Top O’ the Briefing
Happy Friday, dear Kruiser Morning Briefing friends. Ezzwyq was convinced that hidden turmeric was triggering his recurring nightmares of hot tubs filled with Jell-O.
OK, I’m just going to wrap up the week with some quick thoughts on the ever-deepening insanity of the Democratic Party. It’s more than just Trump Derangement Syndrome now — almost every Democrat who has access to the media is turning the party into an ongoing cry for electroshock therapy.
Whatever it is that happened in the New York Democratic primary this week is proof that the Coastal Dems are embracing their crazy and eager to explore just how far into Straitjacket Land they can go.
We’ll focus first on former congressman Jamaal “Fire Alarm” Bowman. Because the Democrats are incapable of being embarrassed by their behavior, Bowman still gets the slobber treatment from CNN as it floats around the cable ratings sewer. I’ll give this to Bowman — he’s consistent. Every time he gets in front of a camera, he manages to say something that makes him sound even dumber than the last time he was in the spotlight.
Matt wrote about Bowman’s latest contribution to the dumbing down of the American conversation:
“We are not dealing with America’s original sin and its disease of hate and racism towards black and brown people, and sexism towards women, and anti-LGBTQ sentiment,” the deranged former congressman began. “We are not dealing with that. Your colleagues in the Republican Party do not hold each other accountable when it comes to the racism that comes from the party on a consistent basis.”
Bowman continued, “Listen to what I’m saying. The reason why heart disease and cancer and obesity and diabetes are bigger in the black community is because of the stress we carry from having to deal with being called the N-word directly or indirectly every day. If — if your colleagues would listen and try to learn and engage and grow, and stop being so hateful, we could have a better country.”
This guy’s a real piece of work.
I honestly can’t remember the last time I heard a white person — Republican or Democrat — use the N-word. And I know a lot of white people. I’m awash in them when I attend the double-secret Privilege Society cocktail mixers. Unless Bowman is suggesting that most rap singers are Republicans, he’s really full of it.
Sadly, one of the bylaws of the Privilege Society is that I can’t blame my weight gain of the last several years on anybody else. Perennial pugdester Bowman has only to look at a voter registration to find the source of his soft midsection. You know, McDonald’s might want to consider rebranding French Fries as “Stress Fries,” in order to add to the comfort food vibe. What have the French ever done for American minorities anyway?
I know that the rules say that a white guy isn’t supposed to weigh in on anything having to do with race but, hey, once some moron tries to link racism to diabetes, all bets are off. I find the perma-victims to be exceedingly tedious. Jamaal Bowman is a former member of Congress who now runs a super PAC. The fat crybaby is practically a Rockefeller compared to me.
The race card in all its forms is beyond played out. Bowman was on CNN to discuss the alleged “Islamophobic” attacks on the terrorist commie simp Zohran Mamdani. Islamophobia isn’t real. By definition, a phobia is an illogical or irrational fear. There isn’t anything irrational about being afraid of people who continually say they want to kill you and frequently blow themselves up so that they can blow up their enemies. That’s actually a healthy fear.
I will sleep soundly knowing that I bear no responsibility whatsoever for people who are barreling towards Type 2 diabetes by living on fried food and sugary sodas, no matter what race or ethnicity they are. Somebody should probably tell Jamaal Bowman that obesity in 21st century America isn’t respecting any racial or ethnic boundaries. We’re fat and we have a lot of heart attacks because we do a lot of things that make us fat and have a lot of heart attacks.
Blaming a bogeyman rather than embracing personal responsibility isn’t going to save anyone from the rib-spreader.

The Mailbag of Magnificence
Let’s begin with this one from Andrew:
Hey Stephen, I started following you on X a month or so ago and I don’t recall seeing you post a link when your pod is available.
Is there a legal reason?
I’m a little slow, but if I get a reminder like that, I will listen!
Thanks for the follow! Most of my multimedia efforts (podcasts and videos) get linked to here. Advance notice of “Five O’Clock Somewhere” is posted on the site on Mondays and alternate Fridays by my friend and co-host Stephen Green. We’re on at 3 PM EDT today!

Stephen,
Always informative and entertaining, you nailed it on Crockett. She is smarter than AOC though that definitely falls into the category of damning with faint praise. I’ll give her this though, she is more believable pulling of the, “I’m as ignorant as all ya’ll” dialect than Hillary ever was. Even Kamala-malla bang-bang was just too elitist to be able to pull it off…the cackle always escaped.
As to Leavitt’s remarks, sadly-as I noted in my comment- 75 million people voted for Marxist lies or at least voted not to keep them from power. That is not mentally ‘well’ IMO.
Way I see it: Liberalism isn’t a mental illness as some have said. Believers are too credulous and get duped by the opportunists that ideology empowers fraud. Leftism is an evil ideology supported by mentally ill nihilists.
These days I’s are the liberals and disaffected Ds and weak-kneed Rs. And as I said tip one to the little ”g” god of revelry.
Empty pockets
Deb, my big takeaway from your email is that Jasmine Crockett is nasty. I’m glad we cleared that up.
This is from Charles:
Massie has confused MAGA with MAGGOT. He is obviously closer to the latter
Massie gets it right about spending every so often, but my colleague David Manney did nail it about his constitutionalist of convenience shtick. Being consistent with his principles is not his strong suit.
We will finish with this from Jim:
Stephen,
Monday, 6/23/2025 I will celebrate(?) the 50th anniversary of my active duty enlistment in the US Army. But that is not the point – Here’s your quote: ‘I wrote in March that I was waiting for the Crockett/AOC “Congressional Dumb-Off,” which I still think will happen.’ I find that to be one contest for which no one wants to really watch (our IQs would drop for every minute we had to watch with the volume up), and one in which nobody wins (especially the US citizenry). I’m pretty sure I stole that assessment from a cold open of one episode of the comedy TV show – Malcolm in the Middle. However, it is still VERY true.
Keep being crazy with your own cold openings, so we all can keep from going insane!
Congratulations on the 50th anniversary, Jim! Again, I agree that Jasmine Crockett is nasty. As for the “cold openings,” I am currently putting the finishing touches on a compilation book of the Sine Qua Non Sequiturs. It’s quick bit of escapism to which I’ve added some other goofy content. The title is “Jodhpurs in the Bundt Pan — A Sine Qua Non Sequitur Journey.” It should be available on Amazon before Independence Day.
As always, thanks to everyone who wrote in!
