The small Gulf state of Bahrain as well as an oil tanker in the Strait of Hormuz came under attack by Iranian drones on Saturday as the ceasefire continued, the Wall Street Journal reports.

Russian officials on Friday declared the Crimean Peninsula – seized from Ukraine in 2014 – due to power outages and fuel shortages caused by a barrage of missiles and drones launched by Kyiv to pressure dictator Vladimir Putin into giving up on his destructive imperialist war, CNN reports.

In related enough news, Putin’s tyrannical American counterpart on Friday, also getting humiliated from an unforced war he started, posted “The Islamic Republic of Iran shot at least four One Way Attack Drones at Ships transversing the Strait of Hormuz. One of the Drones solidly hit the upper deck of a large and very expensive Cargo Carrying Ship. Damage was done, but the Ship was able to proceed on its way. We knocked down three other Drones. Obviously, this is a foolish violation of our Ceasefire Agreement,” meaning there wasn’t really any ceasefire at all.

“Other Polls have my Approval Rating at 65 percent, and more! Like Journalists, Honest Pollsters are very rare and hard to find!” posted convicted felon President Trump on Friday, linking to a Newsmax article about a bullshit McLaughlin poll putting his approval at 50 percent to 46 percent disapprove.

“At the same time, Republicans still trail Democrats on the generic congressional ballot, 46 percent to 43 percent, underscoring that while the president’s personal standing has strengthened, congressional Republicans still have work to do heading into the midterm elections,” the pollsters, brothers John and Jim McLaughlin wrote, and lol at their struggle to sugarcoat already fake data.

Brainwormed Secretary of Health and Human Services Robert Kennedy Jr this week was caught red-faced trying to talk a Libertarian candidate from running for an Iowa congressional seat.

A new internal poll by Dem New York 21st candidate Blake Gendebien finds him pulling “44 percent of the vote compared to [MAGA freak Republican nominee Anthony] Constantino’s 45 percent, and with 11 percent undecided. Constantino’s issues with more moderate, non-MAGA Republicans continue to present a challenge for his campaign in the vote where he’s only pulling support from 55 percent of them,” which, a truckload of salt because it’s an internal poll, is still remarkable given that it’s a Trump +20 district currently represented by outgoing complete scumbag Elise Stefanik.

Former Trump 1.0 National Security Advisor John Bolton is expected to plead guilty to having mishandled classified info in having absconded with a number of documents to write his 2020 memoir titled “The Room Where It Happened,” the New York Times reports, citing sources close to the matter. The then-unpublished manuscript became a goalpost that was moved repeatedly by Republicans during the Orange God Emperor’s first impeachment trial in the Senate.

Convicted felon President Trump on Thursday told farmers that they can look forward to a whole new market in Iran, just about 11 hours after top official in Tehran Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf tweeted “America falsely claims our unfrozen assets will buy their agriculture. Interesting. The only crop we’re harvesting is what you planted: decades of mistrust. It’s organic, abundant, and homegrown. But apparently the US only exports GMO soybeans, broken promises and trash talks.”

“Responding to public demands for information, Congress with near unanimity passed the Epstein Files Transparency Act (the ‘Epstein Act’), which President Trump signed into law on November 19, 2025. The Epstein Act is an unprecedented disclosure law requiring the Attorney General, with few exceptions, to make publicly available in a searchable and downloadable database all unclassified Department of Justice (‘Department’) files related to its investigation of the notorious sexual predator and child sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein, the child sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell, and their associates. The Epstein Act required extremely timely compliance: the Attorney General was required to make the information publicly available by December 9, 2025. The Attorney General made productions on December 19, 20, 22, and 23, 2025, and January 30, 2026.”

“Following the production of approximately 3.5 million pages of documents, the Attorney General announced that the Department had complied with its production obligations under the Epstein Act on January 30, 2026. Katie Phang (‘Ms Phang’) brings this action against Todd Blanche in his official capacity as Acting Attorney General of the United States (the ‘Attorney General’), claiming that he has improperly withheld information and failed to comply with other requirements in violation of the Epstein Act. Pending before the Court is Ms Phang’s Motion for Preliminary Injunction in which she seeks relief for a limited list of violations of the Epstein Act. Upon careful consideration of Ms Phang’s motion, the Attorney General’s opposition, the reply, the applicable law; and for the reasons discussed below, the Court GRANTS Ms Phang’s motion,” wrote DC federal Judge Emmett Sullivan in a ruling on Thursday, putting on the record Dirty Todd’s statute violations.

Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps forces opened fore on a Singaporean cargo vessel in the Strait of Hormuz on Thursday, the Wall Street Journal reports on that which is okay because the Iranians need to be able to defend themselves against unarmed, non-hostile commercial traffic.

“The Crowd was incredible last night, packed to the brim — At least 45,000 people were there, with a huge Television and online audience. I wish we were able to have an even larger area, which we will be able to do on July 4 when I’ll be speaking again. The airplane flyovers and music were fantastic.”

“Everybody stayed right until the end of my Speech because they loved hearing about a truly successful America. See you again on July 4th!” posted convicted felon President Trump on Thursday following his government-sponsored MAGA rally when most estimates put the crowd in the mid-four digits with plenty of footage showing people leaving before the fat bastard was finished.

The US Supreme Court on Thursday ruled 6-3 that convicted felon President Trump’s regime can end temporary protected status parole for Haitian and Syrian refugees.

A Massachusetts federal judge on Thursday tossed convicted felon President Trump’s batshit executive order seeking to create “confirmed citizen lists” of voters in all 50 states.

Thanks to the Big Beautiful piece of shit that convicted felon President Trump signed into law a year ago, demand at food banks in Arizona – a state that voted from the fat bastard by 5 percent in 2024 even after having flipped blue in 2020 – is up 8 percent, from 779,000 seeking help in April 2025 to 843,000 in April 2026, Reuters reports citing data from the Arizona Food Bank Network.

At least 164 people are dead and over 971 injured following a quick succession of a 7.2 and 7.5-magnitude earthquakes that struck 40 seconds and a few miles apart along a fault complex in Yaracuy State, Venezuela just outside of the capital city of Caracas on Wednesday, CNN reports.

The toll is expected to rise given the intensity, shallow depth of the epicenters – 14 and six miles of the two quakes – and vast spread of the damage across the socialist country.

“Today’s Housing News Conference and Signing is hereby cancelled until such time as we pass the desperately needed SAVE AMERICA ACT, which I consider to be a National Emergency,” posted convicted felon President Trump on Wednesday, destroying a bipartisan victory over a tantrum.

Rogue Republican Senate candidate Dan Sullivan’s legal team this week sued the state Division of Elections seeking to nullify the decision to ban him from the ballot through a spurious declaration of his intent, the Los Angeles Times reports. “Nothing in Alaska law regulates in any way the private motivations that draw individuals to declare or campaign for office,” says the complaint and even though it’s obvious that he’s trying to sandbag incumbent Senator Dan Sullivan, they have a point.
