No disrespect to Reuters. They have top-notch journalists and photojournalists… Their website’s an adware-bloated mess, so some disrespect there. But buying this instant classic pic would be a pain in the ass even if probably not actually that expensive and the text in the satirical thought bubble would’ve just gone in the text here anyway.

MAGA Evangelical podcaster Steve Deace – a “Blaze Media” guy whose paycheck gets signed by pink blob Glenn Beck – sounds depressed. Just read this tweet: “Yesterday, Iowa House Republicans were informed by their own pollsters that if you are in a +15 district you’re within the margin for error, if you’re in a +10 district you’re underwater, and that this might end being an even worse midterm environment than 2006. I slept on whether to share this publicly, because I don’t want to cause anyone to black pill. But this morning I ultimately decided the truth should be shared while there is still six weeks left to do something about it for the good of the country.”

Note that to Steve, “do something about it” means write and post a 469 word tweet.

“Because if the environment is this bad in my home state, where Trump has been the most popular political figure over the last decade, I can’t imagine where it is everywhere else. Whatever we’re doing or not doing in Iran/Hormuz has become a 2020 Covid lockdown level political albatross. This is approaching TARP bailout levels of unpopular in my home state. We are risking what’s left of the Trump presidency on this, because if Democrats take control the legislative branch the Trump domestic agenda we all voted for will largely cease between what a Democrat Congress will do and the courts have already been doing. Not to mention what it will cost individual states like my own, which we have worked so hard to make so red these last 20 years (with Trump’s help).”

Worth pausing here to note that Deace doesn’t mention mail-in ballots which in itself is a reminder of how much the “election integrity” shit has trailed off in recent weeks. It’s almost like the MAGA propaganda machine is starting to realize that Dems may indeed win with “too big to rig” margins.

“Less than six weeks until Election Day, Democratic incumbent Governor Kathy Hochul holds a commanding lead over Republican challenger Bruce Blakeman with 58 percent of likely voters supporting Hochul and 39 percent supporting Blakeman, according to a Quinnipiac University New York State poll of likely voters released today,” says Quinnipiac polls in their Tuesday release.

Hmmmm… Yeah it might be kinda tough for the Trump-endorsed Blakeman to pull this one off.

“Canada is destroying itself by allowing millions and millions of people into the Country, essentially unchecked and unvetted, and who are causing problems that will soon be too big to handle. It is a Liberal takeover that will end very badly. Already showing up in their numbers. Big unemployment.”

“Oh Canada!” posted the Leader of the Free World on Wednesday, laying out a comprehensive, multi-step plan to integrate the would-be 51st State politically and economically into the Union.

The numbers from this month’s national Marist/NPR/PBS Newshour survey are pretty goddamned grim for Republicans as the pollster found “53 percent of registered voters say they are more likely to vote for the Democratic congressional candidate on the ballot in their district than the Republican (41 percent). In May, the Democrats held a comparable 10-point advantage over the Republicans on the generic ballot question. Independents give the Democratic candidate for Congress a 25-point advantage, 57 percent for the Democrat running for office to 32 percent for the Republican.”

Once again, while this can seem overinflated and exuberant for the the Ds, keep in mind that last December in the Tennessee 7th special election that, at turnout that reached 99.3 percent of the 2022 Midterm for the same seat, the Dem candidate Aftyn Behn improved 13 percent over the 2022 Democrat. Thus a low double-digit national D+ margin is actually seriously realistic in November.

Marist separately found Dem Texas State Representative James Talarico up 50 to 44 percent over Picasso-faced sociopath Attorney General Ken Paxton in the Senate race. That’s probably a little overinflated and exuberant for the the Ds, but the final margin won’t really matter as long as Talarico wins by more votes than Paxton can get thrown out with all the ballot fuckery he’s no doubt already working on. Dem Gina Hinojosa leads Governor Low Energy Greg 49 to 46 percent in that race.

Yes, that Ford’s Theater, the place where Abraham Lincoln was fatally shot in the head by John Wilkes Booth in 1865. MS Now reports that Trump’s minions have named the site, owned and operated by the Department of the Interior, as one potential property for a Trump-based rebrand.

The only reason for the “possible” hedging in the headline is an editorial inference of the intent of 85 year-old registered Republican The Villages, Florida man Robert Donald Rice during his September 3rd visit to a mens room at Lake Minona Park in the vast golf cart maze senior community. The details in this Monday Villages-News.com article leave zero doubt that Rice is accused of expressing his perversions as the GOP-voting retiree is charged with a misdemeanor count of voyeurism.

It’s just that the specifics – a man entered a restroom stall for its typical purpose only to notice a “rather large hole” and through it spotted a senior with “very white hair” staring directly at him who then stood up to “adjust himself” before fleeing when confronted verbally – could indicate that it was all just a misunderstanding and that Rice had expected the man to have been aware of the likely intentionally-bored hole in the stall wall and its recreational uses for the local community.

From that perspective – pun intended – it’s sort of a faux pas on the victim’s part. Like the hapless motorist who stops at a highway-side park-and-ride lot to smoke a joint, take a brief nap, or both, who then reacts with confusion and perturbation to a smiling male stranger approaching to gently tap on passenger-side window with his wedding ring, there’s an argument here that the man could have sized up the circumference of the hole and made a quick calculation that it is not the product of ordinary entropy. None of this is meant to excuse Rice’s violation of the man’s privacy or to victim blame so much as conjecture about why Rice misjudged the situation. Perhaps there’s some unwritten code in which mean who are in the stall solely to relieve themselves are supposed to stuff the glory hole with a wad of toilet paper to signal their non-interest in an encounter.

Rice, who fled the scene, was finally tracked down by cops and cuffed at a traffic stop 10 days later on the 13th. He was released from custody on his own recognizance after posting $1,000 bond.

Convicted felon President Trump was obviously less than pleased to see CNN’s Kaitlan Collins in the lobby of the United Nations, ranting that she “shouldn’t be here! You should not be here covering me. You said you weren’t going to cover me. You shouldn’t be covering me,” under the mistaken belief that kicking them out of the White House means they don’t have access elsewhere.

Someone then yelled “Be careful on the escalator,” referencing the meltdown the fat bastard had last year at the precise same moment prior to his address to the supranational body.

A new Marist College survey of likely voters in Iowa finds Dem Josh Turek leading MAGA Congresswoman Ashley Hinson 50 to 42 percent in the race for the seat being vacated by contemptible loser Joni Ernst’s retirement, whilst in the gubernatorial race – seen as more likely of a D flip than the Senate seat – other Dem Rob Sand is up 52 to 42 percent over Republican Zach Lahn.

The pollster also found that “41 percent of registered voters in Iowa approve of the job President Trump is doing in office while a majority of voters (58 percent) disapprove, 46 percent of voters statewide say their personal family finances have gotten worse in the past year,” numbers that aren’t all that wacky considering how it tracks with nationwide polling as well as the five stories a day printed by national media outlets quoting a struggling farmer complaining about diesel and fertilizer prices hurting them on top of the trade war fucking them out of access to this or that market.

A new report in ProPublica reveals that an FBI investigation into a cut and dry bribery scheme – in which a defense contractor had made a donation to scumbag Maine Republican Senator Susan Collins’ PAC in 2019 in exchange for millions in new contracts – was shut down in early 2025 after convicted felon President Trump returned to power and gutted the public corruption unit.

It’s kind of dense, but there’s one paragraph that can (mostly) speak for itself in summarizing what’s prooobably going to be a bigger problem for Concern Lady than a canvasser stealing an Amazon package off a voter’s porch: “Of all the politicians Navatek courted under [former CEO Martin] Kao’s leadership, Collins was its most important patron. The senator’s office steered government contracts worth millions toward the company while her campaign was pumping Kao and his network for donations, according to emails seen by ProPublica. Sometimes they cut checks within 24 hours of the annual defense spending bill, which funds military contracts, clearing a key Senate hurdle.”

Kao’s a convicted felon, having been nailed for, you guessed it, illegal campaign contributions.

Following this week’s win by the white nationalist Alternative for Germany party in Saxony-Anhalt, Deutscheland’s centrist establishment are trying to figure out how to limit the party’s access to a top-secret German national defense plan, called the “Oplan,” the New York Times reports. The 1,000+ page classified document, drafted in 2024 following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, is accessible by the leaders of all 16 of Germany’s states but now there are worries, almost certainly justified, that AfD shitbags will simply hand a copy to Russian agents if they’re able to form a government in Saxony-Anhalt this fall. How else are they going to destroy Germany without outside help?

Trust in our government institutions continues to fall to near historic lows. According to the Partnership for Public Service, only 27 percent of Americans have trust in the federal government, while 72 percent say it is “corrupt.” There are many reasons for this, but an important one is the perception that those with close proximity to political power are provided with opportunities, access, and treatment unavailable to ordinary Americans. That concern should not depend on which party controls the White House. For years, serious questions have been raised about members of presidential families using their names and proximity to the President to advance private business interests. The son of former President Joe Biden, Hunter Biden, conducted substantial business with foreign entities including interests in China and Ukraine while his father held or sought public office.”

“Congressional testimony has produced conflicting accounts about the extent to which his father’s name, presence, or political stature played a role in those relationships.3 Hunter Biden has denied involving his father in his business dealings, but there is little question that President Biden’s decades in public office gave his son a degree of access, name recognition,” and so on and so forth and well it sure is refreshing to see Republican Utah Senator John Curtis lead with all the Hunter Biden stuff in his letter to Old Man Chuck Grassley calling for an investigation into why a Russian oligarch paid for Don Jr’s wedding reception – or “lavish wedding afterparty” as Curtis phrases it.

Anyway, November is going to be a bust.

We tried. But there’s only so much you can do.

America will learn the hard way about the threat of communism and Islam since it’s not being taken seriously.

There’s not much to really look forward to in our country if we are going to…

“…we are going to have an infestation of communism and Islam. Soon we will look like the UK. You’ll be surrounded by invaders and jihadists and you will be happy about it or be jailed for speaking truth about Islam. Coming to America soon,” continued Laura Doomer (tee-hee) after the cutoff.

Butting heads last year with then-Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche over the strategic value of bringing his bullshit “mortgage fraud” cases against New York Attorney General Letitia James, Fed Board of Governor member Lisa Cook, and California Senator Adam Schiff, Federal Housing Finance Authority Chief Bill “Fannie Man” Pulte also kinda looked into Blanche’s mortgage applications too just to see if the former defense lawyer for convicted felon President Trump might have committed the same not-really-an-actual-crime, the Wall Street Journal reports. The pic included at the top of the article shows the not-very-tall Pulte deplaning Air Force One while wearing a MAGA-style hat that instead says “GOAT!” as in “Greatest Of All Time.” There’s a little goat embossed onto the side.

Anyway the implication was obvious enough, that Pulte was stupid enough to gather the info necessary to publicly accuse the particularly unethical, corrupt, and vindictive then-second-highest-ranking law enforcement officer in the United States of the same “crime” for which only James was indicted – only for the case to be dismissed and no-billed multiple times on the retries – because of Blanche’s resistance to pursuing the extremely weak shit. A lawyer for Pulte said “any statement that Director Pulte examined or reviewed” Blanche’s mortgage files was false. So yeah he did it.

And found jack shit as any would-be “case” against Blanche would be even weaker than the one against James since Blanche owns one home and had co-signed another mortgage for his son’s house. The little caper came as the Justice Department itself was looking into Pulte and his team to see if they had violated any laws by accessing the mortgage records of Trump’s enemies.

In a moment that insufferable MAGA superlatives like HISTORIC and UNPRECEDENTED were made for, this month’s Reuters/Ipsos national survey finds convicted felon President Trump’s job approval rating at a “career low” of 32 percent with just over half at 17 percent approving of his handling of cost of living. There were no crosstabs linked in the article, thus no means of putting it up against disapproval or, better yet, finding out how much Republican support he’s lost in recent months.

“The White House is not instituting an assault on the Free Press, something which I cherish. It is instituting an assault on the FAKE NEWS, something that has grown like Cancer in our beloved United States of America. It is corrupt, purposeful, pervasive, fully coordinated, and totally out of control. It is a threat to our National Security, and must be stopped, NOW!” posted convicted felon President Trump on Monday after Politico, CNN, and MS Now sued to have their access restored.
