Seriously Donald? You fenced off the reflecting pool on Fourth of July in 2019 so your bigwig donors wouldn't be annoyed by the hoi polloi.

I think that's former Sec of Navy John Phelan on the right in this screenshot from Scavino's MAL wedding. Video is interesting on its own. Features Elon Musk laughing away, Miller toasting the couple & Lara Lea conducting the ceremony.

Trump arrived in PB with Bill Zander, the guy at the center of Trump's meme coin operation. Mike Tyson is a featured speaker at the crypto conference. Buying Tyson Knockout Vape 2.0 is one thing, buying Tyson crypto, I don't think so.

Julia & Gina Varvaro in an undated photo. Heard a rumor Julia was the young woman Ingrassia allegedly sexually harassed at the Ritz Carlton Orlando last July... www.politico.com/news/2025/10...

Missed this. Former Sec of Navy John Phelan overpromised on delivering a new class of battleships & "his enemies in the Pentagon, including Mr. Hegseth and Deputy Defense Secretary Stephen A. Feinberg, mounted a campaign to force him out." Gift link: www.nytimes.com/2026/04/23/u...

Daily Mail reporter Shawn Cohen on a roll. Broke the story about DHS Dep Assistant Secretary for Counterterrorism Julia Varvaro hustling old men & today it's Paul Ingrassia calling Rep Randy Fine a fat Jewish Zionist. Photo of Ingrassia & Varvaro at MAL below. www.dailymail.com/news/article...

Trump spoke for an hour at David Ellison's lavish dinner honoring him at the Institute of Peace last night. Melania, Bari Weiss, Norah O'Donnell, Blanche, Rubio, Miller & Weijia Jiang, WH correspondent & WHCA president attended. Gift link: www.nytimes.com/2026/04/24/b...

Former Sec of Navy John Phelan & his wife Amy hosted the Palm Beach Police & Fire Rescue Ball at Mar-a-Lago last April. The Phelans are MAL members & live a few doors down from the club.

Newsmax host blasts Hegseth.

I don't ever remember reading about a newspaper or news channel buying a table for faithful subscribers or viewers at the WHCA dinner. It's all about the beautiful people. May 2002 WHCA dinner was a barrel of laughs!

I've followed the society pages since I was a kid. Look at the guest list for Lally Weymouth's 2017 July Fourth party in the Hamptons. The divide is between the rich & powerful & the rest of us, not right & left.

This old PageSix item about rich powerful Russians attending sex parties in Kiev still makes me laugh.

Couple of old pix of Charlie Gargano with Trump, Pataki & Harvey Weinstein. I'll never get over Vice Chair of the NY-NJ Port Authority Charles A. Gargano setting up a fake Bahamas real estate company three months after 9/11.

Stop Jewish Domination of Christian America! (Scrolling thru old files today. Sort of busman's holiday)

Here is a nice photo from Nov 2025 of some of the people who helped Trump's approval ratings plummet into the low 30s. Thanks guys & keep up the good work!

Paolo Zampolli championing the press Trump will smear tomorrow. Go figure.

Just searched X for "hot teen sex" for old times sake. Porn is as graphic & offensive as it's ever been but Libs of TikTok & other Elon Musk supported accounts pretend not to notice.

When I wanted to take a bunch of screenshots all at once, I use to use my old iPad. Took a look at them for the first time in a couple of years. Gavin Wax may have deleted his IG posts prior to 2023 but I didn't. 😎

The United States is at war with Iran & we're laughing at our sworn enemy's pretty funny jokes about the C-I-C on social media. Reminds me of my idea of how to bring Iranians into the fold...

My sister's doctor has family in Lebanon. When my sister asked after them, the doctor broke down in tears. Appointments with our Albanian & Nigerian doctors in the pipeline.

I wish I could blank out news about the WHCA dinner. I don't care what foul obscenities Trump hurls at those in attendance & I don't care how they react. It's a meaningless media event & a distraction from what's important.

Trump says Hegseth fired Sec of Navy Phelan because he didn't get along with someone other than Hegseth. Had to do with shipbuilding. Lends support to my theory Dep Sec Stephen Feinberg was behind it.

DoD Dep Sec Stephen Feinberg's OGE 278 report goes on for 1,827 pages. Lots of opportunities to stash investments away from prying eyes. Not that Feinberg did or anything... extapps2.oge.gov/201/Presiden...

I suspect these DoD personnel changes were instigated by Dep Sec Stephen Feinberg who is steamrolling over anyone who gets in the way of his control over his proposed $1.5 Trillion budget. Guy plays hardball. Scroll down my timeline for gift links to both stories.

This is pretty funny. Hegseth reportedly fired Sec of the Navy John Phelan, a PB society fixture, for being too close to Trump. Phelan is a MAL member & lives a couple of doors down from the club. Guess who's going to MAL this weekend? Gift link: www.wsj.com/politics/nat...

Update: The SEC is trying to get a handle on the how much risk has built up in the $3 trillion private-credit industry. Hints that trouble is brewing have been in the business news for months. Gift link: www.wsj.com/finance/regu...

Speaking of DHS, this Aug 21 Politico story has a few more details about Kara Voorhies, the shadow FEMA administrator/contractor uncovered in a lawsuit. Wonder if the plaintiffs are aware of her prior experience... www.politico.com/news/2026/04...

According to this DHS org chart, Julia Varvaro ultimately reported to Christopher Pratt, a former State Dept official who was involved in the award of a $915M contract to another former State Dept official William Walters. Oct 10 2025 Mother Jones: www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Neither Julia Varvaro or her sister, Gina Varvaro, is listed in the OGE database but I don't know if that's unusual.

I'm pretty sure this is Dr Julia Varvaro with Paul Ingrassia in April 2025. She apparently landed her DHS position the next month.

Dr Julia Varvaro moved up the ladder at DHS after three months on the job per org chart in May 2025 & Aug 2025.

Listening to Chris Cuomo diplomatically questioning if those eight women are real on NewsNation.

Come home from dinner, click link to Varvaro DHS scandal & this headlines pops up. Hegseth fired Sec of the Navy John Phelan who I recently mocked for being a fixture in PB society. Mrs Phelan recently helped arranged the bridal shower for Don Jr's fiancée... www.dailymail.com/news/article...

Dr Julia Varvaro's sister, Gina Varvaro, is working at DOJ per LinkedIn. The Varvaro sisters are definitely from Selden.

Apparently Dr Julia Varvaro was a regular on Chanel Rion's show before Trump was elected. youtu.be/nhfYTDDBnKE?...

DHS Deputy Assistant Secretary for Counterterrorism Julia Varvaro, 28, is friendly with Paul Ingrassia. Varvaro is from Selden & Ingrassia from East Patchogue. Linkedin profile:

Deleted a post about Julia Varvaro. Will update shortly with more info. Meanwhile... www.youtube.com/watch?v=YORT...

MAGA MONEY HONEY! www.dailymail.com/ushome/index...

I can't even...🤣🤣🤣

In his speech to the NY Economic Council on Sept 5 2024, Trump laid out what he intended to do if elected & all the big guns in attendance nodded & said yeah, he's our guy. www.econclubny.org/documents/10...

Thanks to @jonreilly1313.bsky.social for providing a link to Trump's entire speech at the NY Economic Club on Sept 5 2024 (see prev post). Link to transcript posted below. Made a lot of fanciful claims... www.c-span.org/program/camp...

I think this is the clip I was thinking of. Trump's answer to a question about the cost of childcare was incomprehensible. Note Bessent listening with rapt attention. youtu.be/jbVinpyscTU?...

Lol. While searching for a Trump campaign event (see prev post), I noticed his campaign promise of an Iron Dome is now a Golden Dome. Given the price tag, it ought to be.

During the campaign, Trump talked utter gibberish at some big economic powwow & everyone pretended he made sense. Anyone recall what the event was? I'd like to watch the video again.

Speaking of Nepal, one of our doctors has family in Nepal & told us Trump's War on Iran is causing financial hardship there. NewsNation had a surprisingly good segment on the economic havoc Trump has wreaked in SE Asia the other day too.

About those subpoenas issued immediately after diGenova was appointed...

Long Island's three most famous serial killers lived within 10 miles of each other in Nassau County. Rex Heuermann - Massapequa Park Joel Rivkin - East Meadow Robert Shulman - Hicksville

A family of Syrian billionaires offered bribes to the Trump family & the response is meh. WH doesn't even waste the time to decry the story as more fake news.
