“While votes are still coming in – and we need every ballot tallied and every voice heard – it appears we will fall a percentage point or so short of winning. Obviously that is not the outcome I want, but I believe in our election system, in democracy and honoring the will of Nevada voters. So whether you voted for me or Sheriff Lombardo, it is important that we now come together to continue moving the state forward. That is why I reached out to the Sheriff to wish him success. We’ve been through a lot these last four years, from a once-in-a-century pandemic to the stresses and strains of global inflation. I know it has been a challenge for many of you and I couldn’t be prouder of how this state has worked to get us to a better day. I also am proud that we made the tough decisions during COVID that helped save an estimated 30,000 Nevada lives even if those decisions sometimes had tough political ramifications. Over the remainder of my term I will continue working hard on behalf of Nevada. You deserve no less. And upon leaving office, I will work in every way I can to make Nevada stronger. While it seems I will come up short at the polls, I am excited that Senator Cortez Masto is on a path to win. We need her strong voice on behalf of our state in Washington.”

“I want to thank my family, including my two daughters, Ashley and Carley, the love of my life and best friend, Kathy, and my mother, who at 96 has been my biggest supporter since day one. And to my campaign staff, everyone who knocked doors, sent texts, and donated, thank you for fighting for me. For this single dad and son of a blue collar factory worker, the opportunities this state has given me are more than I could have ever asked for. It has been the honor of my life to be your governor and I want to thank you for giving me this incredible opportunity to serve,” says Dem Nevada Governor Steve Sisolak in a statement conceding to Republican Clark County Sheriff Joe Lombardo.

Instead of responding to the subpoena like he pretended he would, disgraced former President Trump has filed yet another lawsuit against the House January 6th Select Committee, this time to try to block the subpoena. Wasn’t he supposed to excited to take them on in his testimony?

After Elon Musk’s plan to sell “blue check” accounts that previously denoted verified users led to thousands of fake “verified” accounts for everyone from George Washington to Barney the Dinosaur, Twitter pulled the Blue service to work out the problems the program led to, NBC News reports.

The option to purchase the service was removed from Twitter sometime Thursday, with the icon for subscribers missing from their menus Thursday morning.  A page that once had Twitter Blue subscription forms now just has information on it; a prompt says to go to the iOS app to sign up, but there is no sign-up option on the iOS app.

Musk touted the subscription service for Twitter after he bought the extensive social media platform for $44 billion about two weeks ago.  Since then, all he’s done is fire the company’s moderating and ethics teams, devalued the blue check, and spent two weeks whining that he bought a nonprofitable company.

“A Pennsylvania man has been found guilty in the District of Columbia of felony charges for his actions during the breach of the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021. His actions and the actions of others disrupted a joint session of the U.S. Congress convened to ascertain and count the electoral votes related to the presidential election. Brian Gundersen, 28, of State College, Pennsylvania, was found guilty on Nov. 9, 2022, of obstruction of an official proceeding and assaulting, resisting, or impeding law enforcement officers. Judge Thomas F. Hogan returned the verdict after a trial in which Gundersen and the government agreed upon a stipulated set of facts regarding his conduct”

“He is to be sentenced on Jan. 27, 2023. He faces a statutory maximum of 20 years in prison on the obstruction charge, as well as a statutory maximum of eight years in prison for assaulting, resisting, or impeding officers. The charges also carry potential financial penalties. A federal district court judge will determine any sentence after considering the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines and other statutory factors,” says a Justice Department press release from Thursday.

It leaves out that Gunderson first came under FBI investigation because a former classmate tipped them off saying they spotted Gunderson wearing his high school varsity football jacket in CNN footage of the riot… about eight years after he graduated from high school.

“What struck me about the Watters thing [where Fox professional punk Jesse Watters pouted no one hated Joe Biden and blamed the GOPs midterm shellacking on young people and women voting] that I thought was actually really, was really dangerous is that to me it had big incel vibes,” MSNBC host Alicia Menendez explains, describing Watters accurately.  “Like the way that incels are hetero–[responding to off-camera laughter] RIGHT?–heterosexual men who blame it on women and society that they’ve not had romantic success.  You have Jesse Watters blame it on women and society that his ideology has not had political, electoral sex–SUCCESS.  Excuse me!”

According to Politico, several Republican Senators have called for a delay in caucus elections, throwing into doubt the reelection of Kentucky’s Mitch McConnell, who has been the target of unrest within his own Party.

Because the GOP performance in the midterms has been disastrously below expectations–they’re unlikely to take over the Senate and a House majority isn’t a guarantee as around 30 races are still undecided–an expected challenge from Florida’s Rick Scott evaporated as Scott, the head of the GOP Senate reelection effort, netted, at best, the status quo and at worst, losing a seat.

It’s unclear who McConnell’s opponents would nominate to replace him, but a delay would allow them to mount a campaign to oust him.  In a letter to Republican colleagues, GOP Senators Ron Johnson (Wis.), Mike Lee (Utah) and Rick Scott noted that GOP Senate leadership needed to do more during the midterms, saying “We are all disappointed that a Red Wave failed to materialize, and there are multiple reasons it did not.”

The military of the Russian Federation has abandoned part of their own country’s sovereign territory, exiting the key city of Kherson, Russia and ceding it to Ukrainian invaders, CNN reports.

Anti-Russian hate symbol.

Thousands of Russian civilians poured into the streets to greet the conquerers, brainwashed celebrating being subjugated by the hostile imperialists sent by autocratic dictator Volodymyr Zelensky. Even more disconcerting was the lack of reaction from previously outspoken Western advocates for Russian sovereignty such as Tucker Carlson, Tulsi Gabbard, and Glenn Greenwald who have yet to say anything about the violent assault on a city that has been an integral part of Russia since 2022. “The Ukrainian flag is raised in Kherson city. From now on, the Ukrainian flag will appear on all buildings in Kherson. This is what we have dreamed of from the first days of occupation,” said pro-Ukrainian collaborator Serhiy Khlan, a pro-Nazi, pro-bioweapon labs, pro-globalist traitor to Russia, a land of freedom and opportunity that cherishes Christian values and rejects wokeness.

National Zero will resume our regular news coverage now that we’re done being “balanced” for our MAGA readers. We hope they enjoyed this completely insincere sympathy for their Russian pals.

“The corporate media is working overtime to hide the Republican establishment’s failures in the 2022 midterm elections – perpetuating a myth that Donald J. Trump dragged his endorsed candidates down. This is a complete lie, told in order to embolden GOP leaders in Washington D.C., and ignores the fact that in so many instances, this same ‘McLeadership’ set MAGA candidates up for failure. In my situation, the National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) – led by Chairman Tom Emmer – backed one of my opponents in the primary. She finished in third place, with less than 30 percent of the total Republican vote. Now Tom Emmer wants a promotion,” writes Stolen Valor QAnon freak JR Majewski in a lengthy tirade blaming others for his loss.

The best part might be when Majewski claims he “disproved” the AP’s reporting on his lies about his service record which led to the NRCC pulling the plug on him. “The story didn’t have much impact locally, [then why the fuck did you lose?] but it did nationally. What made the most impact was the fact that the NRCC left the campaign to die. Tom Emmer’s team gave my Democrat opponent the chance to tell constituents that the Republican Party had abandoned me. With limited funding, I could not effectively fight back. Meanwhile, my opponent capitalized.”

Feeling the heat from both state and federal prosecutors, the slate of fake Trump 2020 electors in Georgia now say in a court filing they were just “contingent” and that any plans by Rudy Giuliani or John Eastman to try to take it further were done without their knowledge, Politico reports.

The electors were informed earlier this year they’re the targets of a criminal investigation by the Fulton County District Attorney’s office and are trying to figure out a way out the jam. “To the extent these reports are accurate (which the nominee electors have no way of knowing), the nominee electors did not and could not have had any involvement in or knowledge of any such plan,” lawyers for 11 of the 16 scam electors say in the filing, as if they still didn’t knowingly sign a false statement and were playing pretend electoral college and trying to overturn a free and fair election.

It’s obvious they saw that the fake Trump electors in Pennsylvania and New Mexico, who were smart enough to at least explicitly stated that they were strictly a contingency, rather than presenting themselves as the real deal. Those two slates, as far as we know, are not actually in any trouble.

ALERT: ULTRA MAGA RED TSUNAMI INBOUND!!!!!!!! November 8th will be HISTORIC but only if you VOTE!!

— Ronny Jackson (@RonnyJacksonTX) November 4, 2022

Noted geology expert Dr Ronny Jackson was off by a few days and in the color and location of the wave but National Zero can confirm that his prediction of a tsunami this week was otherwise largely accurate, as Tongan authorities have issued an alert following a 7.6 magnitude earthquake that struck Friday approximately 128 miles off the shores of the tiny South Pacific island.

“A strong earthquake has occurred near Tonga and felt in whole of Tonga. A dangerous tsunami could occur in minutes. You are advised to evacuate immediately inland to high ground or to the 3rd level of a steel or concrete building until the threat has passed. Mariners are advised to move to deep ocean away from reefs,” said a Tongan government bulletin. No word yet on damages or if the tsunami poses a threat to Democrats and non-Democrats in other nations of the Pacific.

Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida on Friday accepted the resignation of Justice Minister Yasuhiro Hanashi, two days after Hanashi joked at a party meeting that his he only made the afternoon news when he stamped his approval on executing the condemned, the AP reports.

The wisecrack came at a rough time for the ruling “Liberal Democrat” Party which, despite its name, is pretty conservative, and is taking a lot of heat from both the opposition and the public over its links to the Unification Church, aka the Moonies, a South Korean pseudo-Christian cult in the aftermath of former Prime Minister Shinzo Abe’s assassination. Abe’s death came at the hands of a man whose mother had been brainwashed by the Moonies and who probably not incorrectly blamed Abe for legitimizing them in Japan. The Moonies also have deep ties to MAGAmerica, owning the Washington Times and former AP rival United Press International (UPI). A Pennsylvania-based sub-sect called the “Church of The Iron Rod” counts QAnon freaks like Mike Flynn and Doug Mastriano among its friends and sent at least 50 adherents to the Capitol on January 6th.

Former Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach, vice chair of Trump’s failed moronic “election integrity commission” and who went 0 for 2 in his races for governor and the GOP Senate primary in 2018 and 2020, respectively, has been elected Attorney General, NBC News projects.

Dem Senator Mark Kelly has defeated Reptilian humanoid Blake Masters and won a full term to the US Senate in Arizona, Cook Political Report’s Dave Wasserman projects based on outstanding vote.

Crap.  When did wearing multiple pins on lapels to virtue signal your überpatriotism come back?  And look at Leo Terrell (who must think he’s a time lord advertising his version)!  Three flag pins!  Isn’t he more ‘Murican than you?  I thought we got rid of the militaristic habit of men wearing lapel pins like they’re Boy Scout merit badges crossed with Khaddafi’s dress uniform ribbons.

Anyway, in this video, Lara Trump demonstrates that Trumpism is most definitely a cult:  she claims that the disastrous outing by Republicans in the midterm election is actually a victory–because nothing Donald Trump can be affiliated with can be a failure (except for four casinos, three children and two marriages).  Of course, Republicans are licking their wounds after their predicted “Red Tsumani” wound up being little more than a dribble.  Even her babbling father-in-law said he expected it to be a “red wave so big as we’ve never seen before” (paraphrasing).  But what would Lara Trump know about failure given that she chose to marry Ewic?  Failure is Lara’s normal.

I’m sure our enemies are quacking in their boots while we are still over here trying to count ballots.

White collar criminal and Squidward lookalike Rick Scott was all set this week to launch a bid to replace Moscow Mitch as Senate Republican leader and had even recorded a video of the announcement, but abruptly backed off on the challenge altogether on Wednesday after it became clear that the GOP had in all likelihood failed to secure a majority under his leadership of the Republican Senate campaign arm, Politico reports. Probably a smart move considering he flew to fucking Italy in the middle of the campaign when he was supposed to be like, campaigning and stuff.

“If this is true, most of our voters will be very disappointed to learn that while they were focused on winning elections, their campaign chairman was plotting an ill-fated career advancement,” Moscow Mitch minion Josh Holmes told Politico. Hard to disagree with that assessment. If you’re a Republican voter you would have to ask yourself what Rick Scott delivered for you this year.

A Trump-appointed federal judge in Texas blocked President Joe Biden’s plan to forgive up to $20,000 each for people holding some types of federal student loans, saying the law the White House cited for authorization does not give him such authority, USA Today reports.

The administration said the authority to forgive the loans rests in the 2003 HEROES Act.  Judge Mark Pittman of the US District Court in North Texas, however, said the act does not abdicate the need for congressional approval.

“In this case, the HEROES Act – a law to provide loan assistance to military personnel defending our nation – does not provide the executive branch clear congressional authorization to create a $400 billion student loan forgiveness program,” Pittman wrote in his opinion.  “The Program is thus an unconstitutional exercise of Congress’s legislative power and must be vacated.”

“[blah blah blah]…so you think democracy defenders would care about the collapse of democracy but just the opposite,” purulent boil of a man who perpetually looks like he just sat on a wet patio cushion Tucker Carlson says of vote tallying delays.  “They’re telling you it’s all completely normal.  It’s always been this way.  If you disagree, you will be censored on social media, as we found out today.  Twitter slapped a warning label on videos from this show because we reported verifiable facts from election officials about election screw-ups.”  Note in the background is a tweet from Carlson claiming Democrats intended to illegally steal the election, which is a lie that likely triggered Twitter’s warning.

Now, something conservatives need to hear:  YOU LOST.  More people voted for Democrats in key races.  Your “red tsunami” was drier than the straight gin martinis you guzzled Tuesday night.  It doesn’t mean the election was stolen (which is incredibly entitled of you to think, like you deserved to win regardless of voters).  It means you’ve got crappy ideas Americans don’t support.  It means democracy works… so long as you’re not running it.
