“So ironic that Cryin’ Chuck Schumer and the Democrats are hiring SLEAZEBAGS like Barack Hussein Obama’s Crooked former Attorney General, Eric Holder, and others of that ilk, to look into Voter Integrity, when this same group of Human Garbage RIGGED the 2020 Presidential Election.”

“GET TOUGH REPUBLICANS — THEY’RE COMING, AND THEY’RE COMING FAST! They’re no good for our Country, they almost destroyed it, and we don’t want to let that happen again! These are highly dishonest people who are, in many ways, treasonous, in that they are trying to destabilize the United States of America in what, some would call, a War. Republicans must TERMINATE THE FILIBUSTER, and approve all of the necessary Safeguards we need for Elections to protect the American Public during the upcoming Midterms,” posted the tragic Shakespearean protagonist from his benightage.

An Auxvasse, Missouri Domino’s guy is behind bars and presumably now unemployed as well after a Wednesday night delivery in Fulton turned from merely verbally snapping at the customer for not tipping into running the customer over with his car for not not tipping, KRCG reports

Zachary Nicholos Walton, 36, called the customers “fucking rude” and when they reacted angrily by yelling at him on the drive, shouted “What are you going to do, bicth? Come get me.” It was then, instead of putting the vehicle in reverse and backing out, that Walton instead accelerated forward, sending the victim onto the hood of the car. The man suffered some unspecified injury to his hand as later noted by cops but apparently was otherwise not all that hurt by the vehicular strike.

Police then visited the Domino’s where Walton had fled to. The man was charged with Armed Criminal Action, First-Degree Assault or Attempt, and Leaving Scene of Accident – Physical Injury.

New York Attorney General Letitia James’s office on Friday announced that Oxycontin manufacturer Purdue Pharma “has shut down and ceased operations as part of a bankruptcy plan secured by Attorney General James, a bipartisan coalition of 54 other attorneys general, and other stakeholders. A new public benefit corporation, Knoa Pharma, LLC (Knoa Pharma), will begin operating in its place today and will be overseen by independent directors and trustees who have no association with Purdue. Knoa Pharma will be entirely owned by the Knoa Foundation, a newly established nonprofit. All members of the Sackler family, who fueled the opioid crisis through their ownership and operation of Purdue, are barred from selling opioids in the United States and will not have any involvement in the new company. Knoa Pharma will manufacture medications, including opioid products, safely and responsibly to address public health needs. It will be subject to strict oversight by an independent monitor and will be barred from lobbying and advertising its opioid products. After operating expenses, Knoa Pharma’s excess revenue will be dispersed to state, local, and tribal governments and to the Knoa Foundation in support of opioid abatement.”

“Under the Sacklers’ control, Purdue developed, manufactured, and then misleadingly marketed its deadly opioids, destroying lives and communities across the country. This company that put profits over people for decades is now shut down forever. While nothing will ever fully repair the damage done and lives lost to the opioid crisis, ending Purdue’s operations is an important step towards justice,” said James at the tail end of an epidemic estimated to have directly killed, though overdoses, nearly 850,000 Americans. The true toll of premature deaths from secondary health effects, suicide, and collateral damage from crime, neglect of children, traffic accidents from junkies passed out behind the wheel, and all the other social and economic harms inflicted is incalculable.

Hey is playing Crazy 8s with a French-suite deck too complex and challenging for you to internalize the rules? Well do the children’s games sections at Target or Walmart have a game for you!!!

“It is with great disappointment that on May 2, 2026, Spirit Airlines started an orderly wind-down of our operations, effective immediately. To our Guests: all flights have been cancelled, and customer service is no longer available. We are proud of the impact of our ultra-low-cost model on the industry over the last 34 years and had hoped to serve our Guests for many years to come,” says an announcement on the website of the ultra-budget carrier, taking 17,000 jobs with it into the abyss.

Apparently the far right propaganda business sucks these days when your guy is in charge as MAGA media empire/film studio with a children’s cartoon series (lol) the Daily Wire is teetering on the edge of bankruptcy and laid off as much as 60 percent of its staff on Friday, the Wrap reports.

“Today, The Daily Wire made a difficult decision to restructure the organization, which included layoffs to a number of teams. We are deeply grateful to those impacted. Their contributions were instrumental in building The Daily Wire into what it is today,” a “spokesperson” confirmed in a statement. It’s not clear if that spokesperson was then laid off or if the spokesperson is co-founder Ben Shapiro, who has taken some hits from the rest of the MAGAverse in recent months.

“The cuts were largely concentrated at our Nashville production office. As the company has invested in new formats, locations, and production models, our footprint there has evolved. Over the last year, we have added production staff in DC, the Northeast, and Florida. This step allows us to focus our resources on an ambitious slate of new entertainment projects set to release this year. Additionally, we will continue to invest in our editorial team and investigative journalism where we have already added numerous new reporters across the country and established a DC bureau with a seat in the White House briefing room,” the statement continued, as though the spin was necessary for a private company that doesn’t have shareholders to bullshit with such sweet nothings.

“Proven Political Winner Andy Barr is running for the United States Senate in the Great Commonwealth of Kentucky, a place I love and WON BIG, six times, including Primaries, in 2016, 2020, and 2024!” posted convicted felon President Trump on Friday and you know the rest of his stupid song and dance by now, showering the white nationalist Andy Barr with his golden glory.

Trump also pushed the other guy out of the race by giving him a patronage ambassadorship.

An Associated Press article a sentence long reads, verbatim “14 members of Iran’s Revolutionary Guard killed by an explosion of bomb remnants, state TV reports.” Wonder if maybe there’s any connection to that earlier speculation by National Zero that it might be dangerous for them to be swinging pickaxes to try to recover munitions buried by US/Israeli airstrikes. Oh well.

Huh… Well, there have been worse headlines here, so…

“Americans’ assessments of President Donald Trump have declined steadily over the last several months. His job approval rating now stands at 34 percent – the lowest mark of his second term. He has also lost ground across a variety of personal attributes and issue areas. One of the steepest declines has been in the share of Americans who say Trump ‘keeps his promises.’ Today, 38 percent say this describes Trump very or fairly well, down from 43 percent last August and 51 percent shortly after his reelection in November 2024. The share who describe Trump as ‘mentally sharp’ (44 percent) is also down since last August (from 48 percent),” says Pew’s toplines.

Camp Mystic, the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory of girls’ summer camps in Texas, will not be reopening this summer, USA Today reports on a stipulation that need be emphasized because, well, it was never up in the air whether the goddamned Triangle Shirtwaist Factory was ever going to reopen.

And not for lack of trying and then realizing that might have been a bad look because Texas officials confirmed to the outlet that the owners of the Christian camp at which 27 were killed – most of them campers – during the apocalyptic flash floods early last July 4th had put in the paperwork to reopen before withdrawing it on Thursday. The abrupt turnaround came just a day after a state legislative committee determined that yes, the horror, which nearly claimed the lives of Republican Congressman August Pfluger’s daughters, could have been prevented if staff had simply heeded the flash flood warning issued that night and evacuated before the deluge hit two friggin hours later.

“The anger at us for not being able to keep them safe feels completely reasonable. I have no excuses,” said Edward Eastland, a member of the scumbag family that owns and operated the camp, after the conclusion. It’s not clear if this was before or after they withdrew the paperwork to reopen this summer. Forget not sitting in court ahead of a 27-count negligent homicide case, as evidently these folks are white and conservative enough to escape real consequences, even just having the balls to keep on keeping on as though there isn’t blood of two dozen little girls on their hands.

Spirit Airlines has died, per the Wall Street Journal, pasted here verbatim as to not mince words:

“Spirit Airlines is preparing to cease operations. The ailing budget airline had been hoping to finalize a $500 million lifeline from the government before running out of cash. The discount carrier hasn’t been able to get sufficient support between certain bondholders and the government to secure the funding to keep it in business, people familiar with the matter said,” said the entire text of the Journal’s article with a breaking/will update with more italics appended to the bottom.

What actually happened is not fully clear yet, but the specifics of how the collapse happened matter less than the reality that it was just nine days ago that the Journal had reported that the Trump Regime was putting together a $500 million bailout package that would have saved the jobs of thousands of regular folks like pilots, flight attendants, mechanics, gate agents, and so on. All of them done in by a sudden spike in jet fuel prices wrought by the Orange God Emperor’s Iran misadventure, all of whose hopes no doubt got up when Trump first spitballed the idea on camera. All of whom were let down when they needed him to deliver instead of just bullshit.

Trailing other Georgia MAGA Congressman Mike Collins in most polls and thirsty for convicted felon President Trump’s endorsement in the Republican Senate primary, Buddy Carter on Friday started his bit by going into a mid-2025 spiel about America being more prosperous under his Orange Overlord and then immediately realized that the line’s supposed to be that gas prices will go back down soon but by the way it’s the Democrats’ fault, remember how expensive it was four years ago?

Yes, that was a run-on sentence but it would’ve been a longer one if Carter’s uninterrupted monologue had been quoted verbatim. It also wasn’t the strongest case for his bid because the Senate GOP already has one guy who talks exactly like Lindsey Graham: Lindsey Graham.

Louisiana 5th Congressional District Dem candidate Lindsay Garcia late Thursday sued Special Envoy to Greenland Jeff Landry, in his capacity as governor of the Pelican State, to block him from suspending the currently ongoing primary in order to re-gerrymander the map in time for November.

In a letter shared with MS Now, House Judiciary Committee ranking Dem Jamie Raskin writes to Alabama Middle District US Attorney Kevin Davidson he’s hearing from a Justice Department whistleblower that “Associate Deputy Attorney General Aakash Singh ordered your office, the US Attorney’s Office for the Middle District of Alabama, to rush through the indictment of the [Southern Poverty Law Center], despite serious concerns about the strength of the case,” and that “DOJ’s exercise in gaslighting-by-indictment also requires America to bury its head in the sand and pretend SPLC’s payments to infiltrate white nationalist groups were meant to support them, despite evidence to the contrary presented in its charging document,” for the politically-motivated indictment.

That rascally Raskin, undermining the regime’s already weak case by making this letter public and therefore citable in the SPLC’s motions to dismiss on grounds of prosecutorial misconduct.

On the other side, one would think that, considering Todd Blanche was literally Trump’s criminal defense lawyer (who lost the only trial Donald faced), that he would have internalized maybe some of the lessons from the implosion of Fulton County DA Fani Willis’s case after her removal as prosecuting attorney, that maybe if he doesn’t want to set the Orange Allah and his bloodthirsty death cult up for disappointment then maybe he should heed some of those lessons and not commit unforced errors like this. Now let’s not COMPLETELY rule out that Blanche is a more competent tactician and that, of course the SPLC and Comey cases are bullshit, but they’re simply buying him time and grace before he really brings an actually serious and effective case against a higher-profile target. That none of the incels will care when Comey’s case gets dismissed because it happens the morning after Bill and Hillary Clinton were denied bail on their 125-count wire fraud indictment.

So killing off GOP candidates is the Democrat’s new plan to win in ‘26?

“Reported missing,” “found dead in his truck” and nothing else, specifically “homicide detectives are investigating,” is what cops say when the guy killed himself and they want to be respectful of a family who just suffered a tragedy they’ll never fully heal from. Which then creates the void in which the incels no longer interested in what happened with Jeffrey Epstein to fill in on their own.

Iranian military personnel are digging into their missile reserves, NBC News reports in a story that’s considerably more literal than you might think as they’re clearing out the rubble from US and Israeli strikes that buried their munitions bunkers and trying to see what if anything is still intact.

Other than the fact that NBC specifically mentions that they’re “taking advantage of the ceasefire” to undertake the recovery attempt, it’s not exactly a sign of strength for the regime to be resorting to this to build up its usable arsenal. Not to mention risky as hell because what didn’t already get detonated from US/Israeli missile strikes could quite easily blow up in the faces of the poor bastards toiling with shovels and pickaxes. And then if that doesn’t happen then there’s still the question of whether the propulsion, guidance, and other components are still good. Hell a slightly misaligned cylinder could jam in the launcher and explode long before it misses the Burj Khalifa by 20 miles.

Yet if anything it’s actually a greater sign of weakness for the Trump Regime, for that much of the job to be done but still unable to end it on his terms – the fat fuck stopped using the words “regime change” a long time ago even while he still continues to sporadically issue empty threats – and the entire world is worse off than if he’d just concentrated on solely domestic policy fuckups.

Georgia Gov Brian Kemp on Friday told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution he has no plans to redraw the Peach State’s congressional map ahead of the November midterms, further solidifying the reality that this week’s Supreme Court gutting of Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act was less-than-optimally-timed for GOP hopes to capitalize on the ruling ahead of an expected brutal midterm.

Already the governors of Alabama and South Carolina have punted while Mississippi, Louisiana, and Tennessee are trying to move ahead with uncertain prospects. The Georgia GOP gubernatorial field is a mess, with Trump’s pick, Lt Gov Burt Jones, trailing oligarch Rick Jackson in most polling – and just this week multiple stories about Jackson employing illegal aliens as his permanent landscaping crew have surfaced. There’s no floor on how bad turnout could get for MAGA this year, which is probably why Kemp at least nodded at redrawing maps to be effective for 2028 this year.

I encourage everyone to participate in Mike Lee’s poll on the filibuster. https://t.co/yHkUFLwdtm
