How Trump Derangement turned feminist icons into mullah defenders.
For decades, the American Left’s loudest voices on women’s issues styled themselves as fearless guardians of peace and equality. They chained themselves to fences at nuclear bases, waved “No Nukes” signs during the Reagan years, and lectured the rest of us about the patriarchy while demanding the Equal Rights Amendment and unfettered abortion. Jane Fonda, the original celebrity activist, was at the forefront—Vietnam-era traitor turned fitness-video feminist turned Trump-hating scold. These women claimed moral high ground on nuclear proliferation and women’s rights.
Then Donald Trump happened.
The moment Trump descended the golden escalator in 2015, something snapped. Suddenly, the same women who once warned that Ronald Reagan’s defense buildup would end civilization found themselves marching in pink hats, screaming about “pussy grabs,” and declaring the 45th president a greater threat than any foreign dictator. Their feminism didn’t evolve; it mutated into a cult of anti-Trumpism so total that it now requires them to defend the indefensible.
Fast-forward to today. Israel and the United States have finally done what sane people have long demanded: crippled Iran’s nuclear weapons program. Precision strikes have turned enrichment facilities into smoking craters, setting back the ayatollahs’ apocalyptic bomb by years. Any rational feminist should be cheering. Iran’s regime is the planet’s leading sponsor of terror, executes women for “improper hijab,” and has openly vowed to wipe Israel off the map. Destroying its nuclear capability should be a victory for every woman who values her own skin.
Instead, the former nuclear freeze crowd is in the streets protesting the destruction of the Iranian nuclear program. Leading the charge? Jane Fonda herself.
Welcome to the age of the Karens for Khamenei.
These are the same women who once denounced nuclear weapons as the ultimate patriarchal sin. Now they clutch signs reading “Hands Off Iran” and “No War for Israel” while Tehran races toward a weapon that could incinerate Tel Aviv and beyond. The hypocrisy is so staggering it would be comical if it weren’t so grotesque.
But the real betrayal runs deeper than nukes. These “feminists” have quietly aligned themselves with the very ideology that treats women as chattel. Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini—the founder of the Islamic Republic whose portrait still hangs in every Iranian government office—laid out the rules in black and white. In his book Tahrir al-Wasilah, the revered leader of the 1979 revolution explicitly endorsed the marriage and sexual use of girls as young as nine years old. He ruled that a man could take a prepubescent wife and consummate the marriage if she was “fit for intercourse.” He normalized sigheh—temporary marriage contracts that amount to religiously sanctioned prostitution and human trafficking. Girls as young as six have been sold into these arrangements, auctioned off to the highest bidder under the watchful eye of the mullahs.
Khomeini also made clear that non-Muslim women—“infidels”—occupied a special category. Captives in jihad could be used sexually without the constraints placed on Muslim wives. Rape of the conquered was not a crime; it was theology. Iran’s regime has institutionalized this worldview: forced veiling, gender segregation, stoning for adultery, execution for homosexuality, and the systematic trafficking of young girls into “temporary marriages” that last anywhere from an hour to ninety-nine years. This is not ancient history. This is current Iranian law and practice.Yet the new Karens for Khamenei—Fonda and her Hollywood coven—say nothing. Worse, they protest the very military action that weakens a regime that rapes, sells, and murders women as official policy. Their hatred of Trump has become a solvent that dissolves every principle they once claimed to hold. Trump imposed maximum pressure on Iran. Trump celebrated Soleimani’s demise. Trump moved the embassy to Jerusalem and brokered the Abraham Accords. Therefore, in the deranged logic of the resistance, anything that weakens Iran must be opposed—even if it saves millions of women from living under the boot of medieval theocracy.
This isn’t feminism. This is performative treason against women.
Real Iranian women risk their lives tearing off hijabs and chanting “Woman, Life, Freedom.” They are beaten, imprisoned, and hanged for the crime of wanting basic dignity. Meanwhile, Jane Fonda—safe in her California mansion—poses for cameras in front of “Protect Iran” banners. The same woman who once sat on an anti-aircraft gun in Hanoi now effectively sits on the side of the regime that would stone her for wearing the wrong outfit.
The transformation is complete. The women who once marched against nuclear proliferation now march to preserve a nuclear-armed caliphate. The feminists who once denounced child marriage in the Third World now make excuses for the country that codified it. The “resistance” that began as hatred of one American president has ended in alliance with the world’s most notorious misogynist theocracy.
History will record this as one of the most shameful chapters in American activism: the day the Karens traded their protest signs for Khamenei’s turban. And leading the parade, megaphone in hand, is the woman who never met a communist dictator she didn’t like—now adding the Supreme Leader to her Rolodex of regrets.
The rest of us, meanwhile, will keep cheering every crater in Natanz and Fordow. Because some of us still believe that protecting women means destroying the regimes that enslave them—not protesting the people who finally had the courage to do it.
An example of how Democrats care for their thugs

Inspection of truck drivers in one state nabbed more than 600 drivers who couldn’t speak English
Inspection of truck drivers in one state nabbed more than 600 drivers who couldn’t speak English
As the U.S. Department of Transportation cracks down on schools that crank out commercial driver's licenses and requires tests be conducted in English, states like Wyoming with long stretches of highways, are also enforcing laws to ensure big rig drivers can read and understand English.
High-profile fatal accidents on America’s highways involving semi-truck drivers with limited proficiency in English have led to a nationwide effort to crack down on the issuing of commercial driver's licenses (CDL) to such drivers.
Statistics that the Wyoming Highway Patrol released last week show how widespread the problem is. Out of 16,676 inspections on commercial vehicles in 2025, 676 resulted in violations where drivers failed the interview because they weren’t proficient in the English language.
This was the eighth most frequent violation Wyoming officials cited drivers for, and these are the numbers for just one state. Recently, the Laramie County Sheriff’s Office in southern Wyoming, Cowboy State Daily reported, had a three-day operation in which 82 commercial trucks were stopped, and 32 illegal immigrants were arrested.
One American driver’s experience
Darryl Orr, a long-haul truck driver based in Cheyenne, Wyoming, told Just the News he sees this problem on the road all the time, and it creates dangerous conditions for all drivers.
He said he was recently at a truck stop in Nebraska. A driver who didn’t speak English was trying to pay for gas using the company credit card. The card wasn’t working, and the cashier was telling the man that he needed to contact his company to work out the problem. Yet, he couldn’t understand what she was telling him.
It was 11 o’clock at night, and the cashier wasn’t getting anywhere. In an effort to help her, Orr said he made gestures with his hand to say “broken” and “call.” He then pointed to the company phone number on the driver's paperwork.
“He finally got the idea,” Orr said.
While the interaction with the cashier wasn’t putting anyone in danger, if the driver couldn’t understand what the cashier was telling him, it’s unlikely he could read and understand road signs. Yet, he’s driving a truck on America’s highways.
Driver shortage creates opportunities
Orr said that many immigrant drivers get their licenses in states like California that are very lax on English requirements. Industry estimates place the shortage of drivers at about 60,000 to 80,000 drivers. To fill that labor gap, companies have been relying on foreign-born drivers, with nearly one in six truck drivers in the U.S. being an immigrant.
While there are a lot of good companies out there that make sure the drivers they hire are safe, capable of reading and understanding road signs, and have good records, many others rush to fill positions, Orr said. “Some of the lesser companies just hire a warm body,” Orr said.
The U.S. Department of Transportation announced this week it had begun targeting “CDL mills.” More than 550 training schools for CDLs were closed following 1,400 sting operations by 300 investigations in all states, according to The Center Square.
The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration found that many of the shuttered schools had no qualified instructors, used fake addresses, and provided inadequate training for things like transporting hazardous materials.
Last month, the USDOT announced that all commercial driver's license tests will be administered in English.
Trucking industry akin to the "Wild, Wild West," Duffy says
“What we’re doing is implementing a rule that will say there’s one language in which you can take your test. It’s English only. You take the test in English. You can’t speak English, you can’t read English – you’re not going to do well on the test,” Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy said at a press conference, The Center Square reported. “For too long, the trucking industry has operated like the Wild, Wild West, where anything goes and nobody asks any questions,” Duffy said.
Orr said the more reputable companies have their own schools and conduct a lot more scrutiny of prospective drivers. He attended one for a company he worked for. He was sitting next to a man from Lebanon. Orr said the man could speak English fairly well, but then he wasn’t able to fill out his application.
Cultural and language barriers
“If you can't read that, how can you do this course? Because it's a lot of reading and learning. And they went to give him the English test and the reading test, and he failed. And they had to let him go,” Orr said.
He said there are also cultural differences that create problems, where the culture of law and order on our nation’s highway isn’t something into which all foreign drivers easily assimilate. A zero-tolerance standard for alcohol use is standard in the American trucking industry, for example, but some foreign drivers from other countries might not think much of taking a drink during a stop.
“I've seen where they ignore the signs coming out of the Eisenhower Tunnel, and they're doing 80 miles an hour down the mountain, where the speed limit is 45 on the other side,” Orr said.
More about safety than immigration
The tunnel Orr was referring to is on a dangerous stretch of I-70 that twists through the Rocky Mountains of Colorado. In 2019, truck driver Rogel Aguilera-Mederos hit speeds of 85 miles per hour while heading east toward Denver along the route after leaving the tunnel.
Aguilera-Mederos, who was born in Cuba, lost control of his brakes, which resulted in a 28-vehicle pileup involving 24 passenger cars and four semi-trucks. Four people died in the accident. Video captured before the crash showed that Aguilera-Mederos passed a truck ramp for runaway vehicles before the crash. Throughout his trial and when he spoke to police, Aguilera-Mederos had to use a translator due to his limited ability to speak English.
Orr said that he understands why some people might be sympathetic to immigrants who come here and try to earn an honest living.
At high speeds, fatalities become the expected outcome, not the exception
“I get that they're doing a job. But would you trust a pilot flying your commercial plane with 200-plus passengers on board that didn't understand English or read the instruments?” he said.
One well-regarded CDL school explains the dangers of big rig crashes on the highway. At 50 mph, the energy is almost three times greater than at 30 mph, and at that speed, in collisions with cars, the smaller vehicle is often crushed or pushed aside violently, leaving little chance for its occupants' safety.
But at 70 mph, the forces are overwhelming. Fatalities become the expected outcome, not the exception. At this speed, a truck crash is often indistinguishable from a demolition event, with energy levels beyond what crumple zones or airbags can counteract.
An 80,000-pound truck cruising down the interstate at 80 miles per hour may not be carrying 200 passengers as would an aircraft. But it can do a lot of damage, and accidents — especially at higher speeds — are more often than not deadly.

Blackout: Cuba in Darkness as Communist Leaders Struggle to See the Light
Blackout: Cuba in Darkness as Communist Leaders Struggle to See the Light
Everyone knew this was coming. Cuba has been struggling to keep the lights on for at least a year before their oil supply from Venezuela was suddenly cut off. That meant it was only a matter of weeks before the country ran out of fuel to keep the lights on. It's looking at the moment like today might be that day.
A failure at Cuba’s main thermoelectric plant has caused a massive blackout affecting two-thirds of the island, the Cuban government confirmed Wednesday. The partial collapse of the island’s National Electric System (SEN) — the second in a month — has left nearly 7 million of the island’s almost 10 million inhabitants without power. The outage is also affecting the capital, Havana.
The government has not yet specified the reasons for the blackout, which is affecting 10 of the country’s 15 provinces, from Camagüey in the east to Pinar del Río in the west. According to state television, an “unforeseen shutdown” of the Antonio Guiteras power plant, the island’s largest generator, caused yet another power outage.
This Wednesday’s outage is the fifth partial blackout — different from a nationwide collapse of the entire electrical system — in less than six months, and the largest so far this year.
So it's not clear yet whether this is the worst case scenario in which the entire island loses power and there's no hope it will return. However, this also isn't just the normal daily rationing of power, where it might be off for 20 hours and then come on in the middle of the night for a few hours. This appears to be some kind of power system failure that could require a reboot, one that could take a couple days.
SEN shutdowns, on the other hand, force authorities to carry out a kind of system reboot that, in the worst cases, can take days to fully restore. Before Wednesday’s collapse was confirmed, the state‑owned Unión Eléctrica (UNE) had warned that up to 63% of the country would be left without power at peak demand — late in the afternoon.
It seems like Cuban president Miguel Díaz-Canel might have seen this coming. Diaz-Canel was picked as the successor to Raul Castro and has made continuity with Cuba's communist legacy his brand.
He made the phrase “We are continuity” his personal slogan.
Díaz-Canel is one of the regime’s most unpopular figures, earning a popular expletive as a nickname on the island. He climbed up the government ladder and was the last standing member of a group of young party stalwarts groomed to succeed Fidel Castro and later Raúl, and has survived several rounds of purges over the years.
Raúl Castro chose him to succeed him, first as the country’s president in 2018, and in 2021 as head of the Communist Party. Hopes that he could be Cuba’s Mikhail Gorbachev – the last Soviet leader, who ushered in reforms and led to the dissolution of the Soviet Union – quickly dissipated.
Díaz-Canel has presided over the largest exodus in Cuba’s recent history — almost two million Cubans have left since 2020 — and the largest demonstrations since Fidel Castro took power in 1959. And while Raúl Castro never truly retired and is still Cuba’s ultimate authority, it was Díaz-Canel who became the face of the economic crisis and the botched government policies that have run the country into the ground.
“He lost the little legitimacy he had left during the July 11 protests” in 2021, said a Cuban American who has met him and asked not to be named to speak about the interactions. On July 11, during island-wide anti-government protests, Díaz-Canel went on live television to urge government supporters to confront the demonstrators “by all means necessary,” a statement that many understood as condoning violence against the protesters.
That's who this guy is. He's a dead-ender for communism. It certainly has seemed that way over the past couple weeks as he's issued tough talk and declared a "state of war" in Cuba.
On Monday of this week it almost sounded as if he was on the verge of realizing it might be time for a change.
Cuban President Miguel Díaz-Canel said Monday that his government should "immediately" focus on implementing urgent transformations to the island's economic and social model as oil reserves in the Caribbean country dwindle...
"We must focus, immediately, on implementing the urgent, most necessary transformations that must be made to the economic and social model," he was quoted as saying by state-owned media.
Díaz-Canel said the push to transform Cuba's economic and social model are tied to business and municipal autonomy and the resizing of the state apparatus, government and institutions, among other things, according to state-owned media.
In the current context, the talk about urgent transformations might sound like a signal of something new, but the Miami Herald says he's been giving this same speech for months.
The measures he mentioned — among them giving more autonomy to state enterprises and local governments — had been previously announced as part of a government plan that Cuban economists already deemed as insufficient to significantly overhaul the island’s failing economy.
“He is repeating the same message, just at a higher frequency and with the volume dialed to 11, but is the same thing, with no plan and no implementation,” said Ricardo Herrero, the executive director of the Washington-based Cuba Study Group.
The NY Times quoted another Cuba expert basically saying the same thing.
“This is not a genuine reflection on much-needed and long overdue change,” said Ricardo Torres, a Cuban-born economist at American University. He described the Cuban president’s proposals on Monday as “change so that everything remains the same.”
In other words, Diaz-Canel doesn't seem capable of doing anything besides doubling down on stupid. If Cuba is going to change it will have to do so without him. And that's why the US isn't bothering with him as Sec. of State Rubio continues to talk with other figures who might be more interested in turning the lights back on.
A source familiar with the discussions said U.S. officials view Díaz-Canel as "an obstacle" to reforms Washington would like to see in Cuba.
The assessment has been communicated during back-channel contacts between advisers to Secretary of State Marco Rubio and individuals connected to Cuba's ruling establishment, including Raúl Castro's grandson, Raúl Guillermo Rodríguez Castro...
The contacts with Rodríguez Castro reflect the belief among some U.S. officials that the Castro family remains the ultimate decision maker in Cuba. One official described the discussions as "discussions about the future," adding that "the U.S. government's position — is the regime has to go."
So that's where this is headed. Sooner or later people will have enough and, just like in Venezuela, someone new will step up and take over. Whoever that is will have a much different attitude about communism and the United States.
