do Republicans think about that?" And I thought, "Yeah, is there no reference to a law professor in the New York Times article where the law professor would say, 'Oh, he could totally use the autopen. It's no problem.' or the law professor would say, 'Oh, no. If there's no paper trail they specifically approved it. That can't stand.'" So wouldn't you expect that if they had been a Republican, they would have talked to a law professor who would have said, "Oh, no. Trump can't do that. We have to reverse all that." But when it was about Biden, no law professor. Nope. Didn't need to talk to any law professors. And then they'd also have a Republican saying this needs to be investigated. So that's probably true. So where is the Democrat? Is there not one Democrat? Nobody in Congress, not one who says the autopen thing ought to be investigated. You would definitely see it if it was a Republican. So he's right on that. So it's absent from the story. Daily Caller is writing about that.

You probably already know the answer to this, but apparently the June inflation numbers are out. Have you seen them yet? Are the June inflation numbers good or bad? It looked like the stock market was kind of happy, so it must be in line with expectations, but we'll see. That's today. So keep an eye on that. We'll see if those tariffs are working their way into the inflation numbers.

Fox News is reporting that police officers in blue cities are leaving in large numbers to go to red states because if you're a police officer in a red state the people in charge actually appreciate you. If you were a police officer in a blue city, you might be arresting people all day long and they're just getting released and everybody hates you. So I would add this to the list of how in the world could blue cities survive because they're spending themselves into ruin. Their real estate will become worthless such as a crime scene and then the people who could keep the peace are leaving like crazy. Is there any narrative that would save the blue cities? And I think the answer is no. No, I think they will actually fail. Now I don't know about New York City because that's sort of a special case, but I do expect a lot of cities to just turn into escape from New York kind of hellscapes even more than they are. So I'd love to see some Democrat even explain how they could ever right the ship because I don't see any way. To me it looks like it's a one-way trip to being Detroit. Has Detroit ever recovered from the car industry leaving? It hasn't, right? Isn't Detroit still in horrible situation? I think it is. I don't see how that's going to change.

Well, Ron DeSantis has a big win. Fox News is talking about this too. So six southern states have banded together to create a new accreditation commission for higher education. Now if you don't know how important that is, it's really important because if the liberals are the only ones who can say your college is accredited, and nobody wants to go to a college that's not accredited by somebody, then you know the left has all the power about what is an acceptable college. So now there's going to be a competing accreditation process at least for six states in which if you're a college you can get accredited by this new organization and then you don't have to be super woke because I imagine that you have to be super woke to be accredited by the old accreditation system. So this might be a really big deal. We'll see.

All right. So according to a publication called European Conservative, the European Union is having a tough time trying to figure out how to address Trump's tariff and trade escalation. So you would not be surprised to learn that the European Union is full of countries that don't all agree with each other about what to do and when. So it's like herding cats. So apparently the European Union believed that they were negotiating with Trump on a trade deal and things were going along fine. They weren't close to a deal, but they felt things are moving along. And then suddenly Trump says, "Yeah, we're not negotiating anymore. Here's a 30 percent tariff. Thank you for your business." Which I'm starting to love as a technique. I do love the fact that Trump says, "We gave you plenty of time. If you can't come up with a trade deal that we can live with, we'll just send you the bill. And then if you want to have access to our markets, you'll pay the bill. If you don't want access to our markets, well, your entire economies will be in big trouble." So I kind of love the fact that instead of pushing hard, he's simply saying, "Do what you want to do, but we're going to do what we want to do, which is charge you 30 percent if you want access to our markets," and then just make it their problem. That's the beauty of it. It just makes it their problem instead of our problem and their problem. No, it's just your problem. You know, just here's the bill. I do love that.

All right. I saw Zuby, you kn
