Caleb Flynn, the former Evangelical pastor who Fox News opted to identify as a former American Idol contestant when he was arrested in February for shooting his wife Ashley in the head twice while she slept, was found guilty Tuesday on a single count of aggravated murder, Fox News reports. Flynn’s mistress read a significant number of the 107,000+ text messages exchanged between them during the eight-day trial, texts in which Caleb referred to Ashley as “douche.”

“Five weeks until Election Day, 51 percent of voters would want to see the Democratic Party win control of the US House of Representatives, while 39 percent would want to see the Republican Party win control of the House, with 9 percent not offering an opinion, according to a Quinnipiac University national poll among registered voters released today,” says the QU polling institute.

“Thirty-four percent of voters approve of the way Donald Trump is handling his job as president, while 61 percent disapprove. This matches an all-time high disapproval that was last reached in Quinnipiac University’s January 18, 2021 poll, when 34 percent of voters approved of the way Trump was handling his job and 61 percent disapproved… The approval of Trump’s handling of the economy (31 percent) is at an all-time low for both terms. His previous low was in Quinnipiac’s September 10 poll, when 32 percent approved, 65 percent disapproved, and 3 percent did not offer an opinion.”

Just going to leave out the context because it’s true.

“Today, the Justice Department announced charges and guilty pleas involving 12 individuals, including three illegal aliens, in connection with illegal voting, fraudulent voter registration, and related election crimes across the country. The cases include voting by aliens in federal elections, false claims of US citizenship to register or vote, false statements on citizenship applications, and the alleged disposal of approximately 300 mail-in ballots by a former postal carrier,” says a Monday Justice Department press release that conveniently omits the registered parties of all twelve.

“Christiane Vinette Young, 75, an illegal alien from Canada, was charged by information with three counts of voting by an alien. Young voted in three federal elections – the 2024 general election, 2022 general election, and 2022 primary – despite knowing that she was not a citizen of the United States,” and yes, VoterRecords.com says that Young had registered as a Republican.

She’s the only one of the twleve whose registration could actually be found on the site.

This site tries not to go too hard on Palmer Report-level lib hopium so imagine the headline contains an asterisk marking the former Justice Department special counsel Jack Smith’s title “aspirational.” It’d also be perfectly fine if Smith went back to the Hague and finally got to put convicted felon President Trump on trial then… Or was just reappointed special counsel and resumed his January 6th prosecution in 2029. That’s on the table too as the case was dismissed without prejudice.

A new Marist College survey of likely voters in Ohio finds Dem former Senator Sherrod Brown leading feckless incumbent Republican Jon Husted 51 to 43 percent while Dem Amy Acton leads billionaire tech bro Vivek “Da Vek” Ramaswamy 50 to 42 percent. “A plurality of Ohio voters (41 percent) say their congressional vote is mainly a vote against President Trump. 25 percent say it is a vote for the president, and 33 percent report Trump is not much of a factor when considering their vote. Of those Ohio voters who say the president is not influencing their vote, a majority approve of how Trump is doing his job,” Marist writes of how things are going in the Buckeye State.

A Republican donor tells Politico that convicted felon President Trump’s campaign travel schedule including stops in Alabama, Oklahoma, and Ohio this week is the darkest sign possible for the party’s midterm outlook. “The problem is that the fires are everywhere right now,” the anonymous scumbag said.

The Orange God Emperor is attempting to salvage Iowa Republicans’ chances by announcing that he’s getting some company to build a steel mill that will open in like two or three years. That’ll totally turn things around with struggling soybean farmers getting effed by $6.30/gallon diesel after getting effed by his trade war.

Deputy FBI Director Andrew Bailey – the dipshit former Missouri Attorney General whose claim to fame before joining the Bureau was unsuccessfully suing Starbucks over an alleged decline in service quality because they were hiring too many women and racial minorities – is leaving the job just over a year after he was appointed to the completely made-up role of “co-deputy director” as a pre-replacement for then-soon-to-be-exiting Dan Bongino, MS Now’s Ken Dilanian reports.

Per Dilanian, Bailey had been charged with overseeing “election related matters,” but is giving up after being “annoyed” over how K$H handled the demotions of two top counterterrorism agents who refused to take seriously the insistence that some harassing phone calls made to Reichsminister Stephen Miller’s wife Katie counted as terrorism. The fact that Bailey – who in 2024 unsuccessfully sued the State of New York at the US Supreme Court for interfering in the election because the judge imposed a gag order on the Orange God Emperor during his trial (Bailey sued after Trump had already been convicted) – is the one who thinks K$H is too incompetent and reckless says it all.

Fox News reporter Bill Melugin posted early Monday that he’s “spoken on the phone with President Trump and nine ICE and DHS sources about” the Daily Wire’s report on ICE agents being ordered to stop arresting non-criminals ahead of the midterms, confirming that the “verbal guidance did go out to ICE offices across the country last night. I’ve spoken with ICE agents who received it and were shocked and frustrated by it. It’s unclear who it started with. However, I’m told it’s erroneous, was some type of ‘miscommunication’ during conversations about prioritizing ‘worst first’, and there is no change in immigration enforcement policy. President Trump tells me anyone in the country illegally remains ‘on the table’ for ICE arrest and deportation. I’m also told new guidance went out to ICE field offices tonight to reaffirm this and that yes, arrests of illegal aliens and ‘collaterals’ without additional criminal history will continue. ICE sources confirm to me they received the new guidance.”

“I’m not really sure what happened here – but everyone is on the same page, including President Trump, in telling me that his immigration enforcement agenda isn’t scaling back,” Melugin continued with the obvious damage control move to try to wink wink at MAGAmerica. Trump may be making the their lives miserable with high gas prices, farm bankruptcies, and everything else going to shit but they can deal with it as long as they believe immigrants’ lives are made even worse.

Just forget, for example, shit like when Jesse Watters straight up admitted that ICE had pulled back from Maine to help make sure Susan Collins – who voted to convict Trump in 2021 – wins reelection.

— Sarah Huckabee Sanders (@SarahHuckabee) September 28, 2026

You can kind of tell Arkansas Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders isn’t really all that practiced at this whole campaigning thing, given the low energy and uninspired nature of her ad depicting the already obsolete kayfabe of a “Medicaid gamer” who finally puts the controller down and gets a job at some place where the dress code is a tie and oxford shirt from the Kohl’s clearance bin.

That’s the “accomplishment” she’s marketing to Razorback State voters as she runs for reelection and it’s probably indicative of something that she’s even turning out this dogshit effort at all. Who’s even running against her on the Democratic ticket? Is there even a Dem running against her at all?

“Cr0ss1Ng TeH b0rD3r wiHtOuT aUtH0RiZaTun iZ a CrIMe!!!1!!” the Stephen Miller and his fanboys will say – and the fanboys said it plenty in the comments under this week’s big “EXCLUSIVE” Daily Wire report headlined “ICE Officers Say They Were Told To Stop Arresting Non-Criminals.”

And yes, you guessed why. “We believe it has something to do with the midterms coming up,” one ICE source told Ben Shaprio’s lame right wing site. “They’re trying to calm things down before the elections,” adding “I hope Trump finds out about this shit and puts an end to it,” lol.

FBI officials on Saturday told employees that a vulnerability in the Bureau’s FBIJobs.gov portal – the one where beastiality is no longer a dealbreaker – allowed for parties unknown to expose personally identifiable information of FBI personnel, including social security numbers, addresses, and job titles, per MSNow’s Ken Dilanian, who cited an internal memo in a 7:38 PM Saturday night tweet.

Just under five hours earlier Dilanian also shared an article he wrote about two top counterterrorism supervising agents who were demoted for disagreeing with K$H over whether a series of harassing phone calls to mediocre right wing podcaster Katie Miller actually merited a “terrorism” investigation.

“Harassing phone calls aren’t even in the ballpark of terrorism unless an actual terrorist is doing the dialing,” said a former FBI agent who was briefed on the matter by sources relevant to the demotion.

“Pete Buttigieg was more concerned with DEI policies than freight rail safety, so he should resign immediately,” was the line three years ago from the MAGA propaganda-industrial complex and thus the same standard should be applied to K$H Patel given where his priorities lie.

There’s simply too much material to work with these days – and too much overlap between all the material. Terabytes of articles and posts and that ridiculous Axios graphic screenshotted above, the flashing klaxon directed right at their GOP-donating readers. It’s at least third such deployment of the Sarah Grillo work by the bullet point factory since its November 25th, 2025 debut on “Behind the Curtain: Red alert” by founders Jim VandeHei and Mike Allen in which the ultra-connected power couple wrote “Everywhere Republicans look, they see big political trouble,” in their lede underneath.

Yet it’s the same image. Shouldn’t it become brighter or fiery or just animated now that the Republican Party’s political situation is considerably worse than it was late last year?

“Governor Jeff Landry has issued an Executive Order declaring a state of emergency, allowing Louisiana farmers and timber harvesters to use the dyed diesel fuel they already keep on hand. The order comes at the peak of harvest season, with diesel at the highest price ever recorded in this state. EO attached. ‘We’re not going to sit on the sidelines while Louisiana farmers are paying record prices to harvest the crops that feed our families and support our economy. We have an opportunity to provide immediate relief, and that’s exactly what we’re doing,” said Governor Landry.”

“Dyed diesel is ordinary diesel fuel dyed red to mark it as off-road fuel. Farmers and loggers buy it for tractors, skidders, and irrigation pumps, and state law has long barred them from burning it in a licensed highway vehicle. This Executive Order suspends the penalty through October 22, 2026 for vehicles registered as Class 2 (Forest Products) or Class 5 (Farm Use) during this time of peak harvesting operations. The Order also directs the Secretary of the Louisiana Department of Revenue to request federal penalty relief from the IRS by the end of the week.The diesel shortage driving these high prices is a national issue. US inventories of distillate fuel oil are currently 12.5 percent below the five-year average, contributing to higher domestic diesel prices. At the same time, US net exports of distillate fuel oil remain near five-year highs. In Louisiana, the average retail price of diesel has reached an all-time high of $6.03 per gallon, 112 percent higher than the price the LSU AgCenter used to develop its 2026 crop enterprise budgets,” says the statement from far-right fascist Louisiana Governor Jeff Landry’s office, carefully not blaming anyone in particular for the situation.

Fun fact: As Pelican State attorney general back in 2020, Landry was the first holder of that office to join neighboring scumbag Ken Paxton’s failed attempt to overturn now-again-President Trump’s defeat at the Supreme Court and now just under six years later is living with the consequences of his support for the Orange God Emperor, declaring a fucking emergency because of diesel prices.

The CEO of the painfully generically-named Michigan-based “Family First Credit Union,” painfully generically-named Jane Smith, is no longer with the company after posting a pic depicting herself, husband, sister, and brother-in-law, wearing sweatshirts bearing the painfully generically-MAGA-renamed “Lake America,” the Guardian reports on a surprise resurgence of cancel culture.

Particularly obnoxious of Smith and her kin was that the real photo with the AI-slop added “Lake America” shirts was taken at Detroit’s airport on September 11th prior to the four departing for Halifax, Nova Scotia, a region of Canada that had on that day 25 years earlier opened their homes to thousands of Americans stranded when Transatlantic flights were diverted to Maritime Province airports. “Like our sweatshirts? Not sure Canada will… Lol lol” Smith wrote in the post.

“Jane Smith is no longer employed by Family First Credit Union, effective immediately. Jason Acosta will serve as interim CEO. We sincerely apologize for the concern, disappointment and pain this situation has caused our members and community. We understand that members of our community may hold different perspectives about this decision. Our responsibility is to act in the best interest of the Credit Union, uphold the trust of our members and continue putting our community first,” Family First wrote in the statement announcing Smith’s dismissal for her offensively anti-Canadian post.

Documents unearthed by German historian Harold Sandner are raising new questions about whether the 1931 death of Adolf Hitler’s niece Geli Raubal was in fact a suicide or if something more sinister happened, CNN reports in an article that maybe might’ve benefitted from a fresh set of eyes.

Now to be clear, Sandner’s find is not nothing: Hitler’s relationship with Raubal – 23 at the time of her historically documented September 19, 1931 death to Uncle Adolf’s 42 – was freaking creepy as hell, way worse than merely “domineering.” At that time that Hitler – still two years away from seizing power in Germany – was starting to see Eva Braun whilst simultaneously interfering in her own plans to marry a guy closer to her age, forbidding her from seeing him. That’s the tragic context in which his butler, Georg Winter, barged into Geli’s room on the 19th and found her lying on the floor, dead of a gunshot wound to the chest. Thing is that Sandner found an entry in Munich’s official death register giving the date and time of the discovery of Raubal’s body as 10:15 am on September 18, 1931. Two death notices found in the archives also carried that date – important because both would place Hitler in Munich at the time whereas he had departed for Nuremberg the previous afternoon.

Eccentric real estate tycoon and outsider Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump on Monday absolutely tore into President Barack Obama on Monday night’s edition of the O’Reilly Factor on Fox News, taking aim at Obama for throwing a state dinner for Chinese Communist Chairman Xi Jinping. “I would not be throwing Xi Jinping a dinner. I would get him a McDonald’s hamburger and say ‘we have to get down to work.’ We’re giving him a state dinner and what he has done is sucked all of our jobs,” said the colorful Trump, who is unlikely to ever be seen as a serious contender for the GOP nomination given the field that includes titans like Jeb! Bush, iron-willed Florida Senator Marco Rubio, and South Carolinian Lindsey Graham, a 61 year-old Senate GOP firebrand whose boundless energy and animated style makes it seem like he’ll live to be 115.

O’Reilly, whose show similarly feels as if it’ll still be airing on Fox News for as long as his heart’s pumping, was plainly impressed with the mercurial and flamboyant Trump, who announced his presidential bid two months ago to a crowd of supporters who some Republican detractors alleged were paid $50 each to cheer him on from the lobby of the Trump Tower. It does seem that Trump is command of the message, that in some weird, wacky future timeline where he were in the Oval Office it would no longer be politics or diplomacy as usual, that he would serve Xi a McDonald’s burger – saving the lobster for NCAA athletes – and take him to task for decades of hollowing out of America’s manufacturing workforce. Regular Americans have had enough of old, out-of-touch politicians obsessed with their “legacies” and only stop long enough to roll out the red carpet for a murderous dictator. They want to be able to tune out politics, kick back, relax, watch Star Wars: The Force Awakens and the rest of the new trilogy, and live their lives in peace and prosperity.

In what local pollster Wedgewood euphemistically calls a result that would be a “significant upset in a state Republicans have carried by wide margins in recent Senate cycles,” Democrat Adam Hamilton leads absolute fucking weasel Republican Kansas Senator Roger Marshall 50 to 48 percent in a race that was never on anyone’s radar even a month ago. The Libertarian gets 2 percent.
