There were zero bank failures in 2018, but we got the first one of 2019 last night
The Enloe State Bank, Cooper, Texas, failed last night, the first bank failure in the US since Dec. 15, 2017. A bank failure hasn't occurred in Texas since 2013.
The failure in Texas is estimated to cost the FDIC's Deposit Insurance Fund $27 million.
The FDIC insures the deposits at 5,362 institutions as of March 31, 2019.
To kick off abnormal pride month, Drudge headlines two stories highlighting gay proclivity for the extreme
An unbelievably lame one from NBC featuring a gay storm chaser who proposes during a tornado (death wish much?), and one from the Advocate featuring supposedly gay Philippine President Duterte, whose regime has encouraged violence in the extra-judicial killings of thousands of drug pushers.
And it's only June 1.

Disney's threat to halt filming in Georgia over abortion is at least as pathetic as its adult customer base
I hates those meeces to pieces.
Ben Shapiro's "peaceful ethnic cleansing" predates Richard Spencer's by a decade
Transfer is not a dirty word:
Here is the bottom line: If you believe that the Jewish state has a
right to exist, then you must allow Israel to transfer the Palestinians
and the Israeli-Arabs from Judea, Samaria, Gaza and Israel proper. It's
an ugly solution, but it is the only solution. And it is far less ugly
than the prospect of bloody conflict ad infinitum. When two populations
are constantly enmeshed in conflict, it is insane to suggest that
somehow deep-seated ideological change will miraculously occur, allowing
the two sides to live together.
That's Ben Shapiro in 2003.
Here's Richard Spencer, from 2013:
Real diversity and tolerance apparently go only so far, however. In an address at white supremacist Jared Taylor’s 2013 American Renaissance conference,
Spencer called for “peaceful ethnic cleansing.” As an example of how
this could be accomplished, he cited the 1919 Paris Peace Conference,
where new national boundaries were formed at the end of World War I.
“Today, in the public imagination, ‘ethnic cleansing’ has been
associated with civil war and mass murder (understandably so),” Spencer
said. “But this need not be the case. 1919 is a real example of
successful ethnic redistribution — done by fiat, we should remember, but
done peacefully.”

John Cleese's three words to sum up why England had to Brexit: Jean-Claude Juncker
John Cleese defiant as he says ‘London ISN’T an English city’, sparking Twitter storm:
The Fawlty Towers star has openly supported Brexit and previously
referred to the country’s debate as “one of the most depressing things
about this country”. ...
John also previously insisted he doesn’t believe Brexit is a “mistake”. He told the Radio Times: “I’m rather delighted that all these
forecasts of doom and destruction have turned out, at this point, not to
have been real.” And elaborating on his reasons why he voted Leave, he added: “I don’t
want to be ruled by Brussels bureaucrats who want to create a super
state. “I was pro-Brexit for that reason. “If I had three words to sum up why we had to get out of Europe, they would be: Jean-Claude Juncker.”

Memorial Day 2019
They say that in Flanders fields
wasted young lives abound,
sleeping still beneath the ground;
Yet from what I've seen of life
the waste is all around,
though walking the dead above also are found.
