Slobbery Trump fanboy Troy Nehls announces retirement

“After more than 30 years in law enforcement serving and protecting my community as a police officer, constable, Fort Bend County Sheriff, an Army veteran, and six years representing this district in Congress, I have made the decision, after conversations with my beautiful bride and my girls over the Thanksgiving holiday, to focus on my family and return home after this Congress. Before making this decision, I called President Trump personally to let him know of my plans. President Trump has always been a strong ally for our district and a true friend, and I wanted him to hear it from me first.”

“Serving this country in the military, serving our community in law enforcement, and serving this district in Congress has been the honor of my life. Thank you for your trust, your friendship, and your prayers,” said Texas MAGA Congressman Troy Nehls in a statement on Saturday.

Just for some perspective here: Nehls, who’s in his third term and was reelected last November by a 25 percent margin, just under two years ago was asked why he was supporting the failed impeachment inquiry into now-former President Joe Biden. “All I can say is Donald J Trump 2024, baby!” Nehls responded, making clear what everyone actually knew but didn’t dare say out loud. The next June he was spotted wearing a pair of $400 Trump gold sneakers (or a cheaper fugazi) to work at the Capitol. Nehls did occasionally manage find time for legislation, like co-sponsoring a bill to rename Dulles International Airport the Donald J Trump International Airport that April.

Stefanik unstoppable within New York GOP: Fox News

Hardcore MAGA New York Congresswoman Elise Stefanik has all but officially secured her party’s nomination to take on incumbent Dem Governor Kathy Hochul next November, Fox News reports in a glowing article about the rock solidity of Stef’s support in the grimy, arcane, 19th century-relic system that continues to dominate the Empire State’s political culture, a consolidation that Fox writes “leaves Nassau County Executive Bruce Blakeman with virtually no path to the nomination.”

Yup, the stereotypical “cigar-smoke-filled backrooms” have stubbed out their Cohibas on a pic of Blakeman and made their call, as he got no traction outside of Long Island’s two counties. He’s simply screwed and Elise Stefanik’s on a glide path to the 2026 GOP gubernatorial nomination.

“We appreciated Executive Blakeman meeting with us during his visit Upstate, but nothing discussed impacted our unwavering support for Elise Stefanik and her campaign to save New York. Elise has consistently delivered for our Upstate communities, and we trust she’s the right person to tackle the challenges New Yorkers face,” said Schenectady County Republican chair Liz Joy, further emphasizing how the only state Blakey could be the GOP gubernatorial nominee of is Loserdom.

Movie Night Friday: All The President’s Men

The grandaddy of all the great journalism movies, adapted from Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein’s seminal 1974 account of their reporting. The recently late Robert Redford as Woodward, Dustin Hoffman as Bernstein, Jason Robards as Ben Bradlee. Truth be told, it’s just ever so slightly overrated, but only for plot and pacing issues. The acting and dialogue are excellent as is the direction by Alan Pakula. All that combine to do all the heavy lifting for a plot that is often difficult to parse. You hardly ever notice that you’re lost on things like why Donald Segretti telling Bernstein about his “ratfucking” operation was so important to the early phases of the overall quest to uncover Nixon’s abuses. The scene is still excellent. To be fair All The President’s Men had an audience in 1976 far more familiar with the names and their significance than some of us born a decade later.

Fun trivia: The Washington Post staff shipped crates full of office paper and binders to use as props on the newsroom set built in Los Angeles. Watergate security guard Frank Wills – whose eye for pieces of tape being placed to prevent doors from locking set in motion the implosion of Richard Nixon’s presidency – plays himself in the brief glimpses of the break-in during the film’s open.

Fuck, the ground keeps swelling at Italian supervolcano caldera

The magma within the Campi Flegrei supervolcano just outside of Naples is stirring once again, raising fears of an imminent cataclysmic eruption that would annihilate the town of Pozzuoli and spew toxic ash across Europe as well as causing temperatures to drop globally, NPR reports.

“Two of the most recent earthquakes are the strongest we’ve ever seen,” said Giovanni Macedonio, the director of the National Institute of Geophysics and Volcanology in Naples. Quakes in March and June this year caused by the Campi Flegrei forced people “to evacuate and there are tens of families that can’t return to their homes because of the damage.”

Dem AGs sue to block SNAP halt to legal immigrants, asylees

“New York Attorney General Letitia James today led a coalition of 21 attorneys general in filing a lawsuit to stop the Trump administration from unlawfully cutting off Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits for tens of thousands of lawful permanent residents. Attorney General James and the coalition are seeking to block new guidance from the US Department of Agriculture (USDA) that wrongly declares several groups of legal immigrants ineligible for food assistance, including permanent residents who were granted asylum or admitted as refugees. The attorneys general warn that the guidance would saddle states with catastrophic financial penalties unless they immediately implement the unlawful restrictions, and they are urging the court to strike down the guidance before it can cause lasting harm,” says the newly-acquitted and totally, completely exonerated New York Attorney General Letitia James in a statement on Wednesday.

“‘The federal government’s shameful quest to take food away from children and families continues,’ said Attorney General James. ‘USDA has no authority to arbitrarily cut entire groups of people out of the SNAP program, and no one should go hungry because of the circumstances of their arrival to this country. My office will always fight to protect Americans’ SNAP benefits, and I will do everything in my power to shield New Yorkers from this unlawful policy.’ On Oct 31, USDA issued new guidance to state SNAP agencies describing changes under the so-called ‘One Big Beautiful Bill,’ which narrowed eligibility for certain non-citizen groups, including refugees, asylum recipients, and others admitted under humanitarian protection programs. The memo went far beyond the statute Congress enacted, however, asserting that anyone who entered through these humanitarian pathways would remain permanently ineligible for SNAP, even after becoming lawful permanent residents.”

“Seriously retarded”: Trump meltdown continues

“A very Happy Thanksgiving salutation to all of our Great American Citizens and Patriots who have been so nice in allowing our Country to be divided, disrupted, carved up, murdered, beaten, mugged, and laughed at, along with certain other foolish countries throughout the World, for being ‘Politically Correct,’ and just plain STUPID, when it comes to Immigration. The official United States Foreign population stands at 53 million people (Census), most of which are on welfare, from failed nations, or from prisons, mental institutions, gangs, or drug cartels. They and their children are supported through massive payments from Patriotic American Citizens who, because of their beautiful hearts, do not want to openly complain or cause trouble in any way, shape, or form. They put up with what has happened to our Country, but it’s eating them alive to do so! A migrant earning $30,000 with a green card will get roughly $50,000 in yearly benefits for their family,” posted convicted felon President Trump on Thursday and assume that part is true (it isn’t).

Why hasn’t he done anything about it yet? Wasn’t this what he campaigned on?

Continued: “The real migrant population is much higher. This refugee burden is the leading cause of social dysfunction in America, something that did not exist after World War II (Failed schools, high crime, urban decay, overcrowded hospitals, housing shortages, and large deficits, etc). As an example, hundreds of thousands of refugees from Somalia are completely taking over the once great State of Minnesota. Somalian gangs are roving the streets looking for ‘prey’ as our wonderful people stay locked in their apartments and houses hoping against hope that they will be left alone.”

Biden 2028!!! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Even if many aren’t actually saying it out loud yet, you can look at the faces of voters after 10 months of Donald Trump back in the White House and already it’s clear: They were better off financially under former President Joe Biden, whose economic policies kept Americans working, buying homes, insuring their cars, and keeping their lights on. Hundreds of them even made millions of dollars from starting podcasts and YouTube channels in which they talked a lot about how trans teenagers were ruining girls’ sports and showed audiences 7-second clips of Biden footage to demonstrate that he’s really old. Smaller business owners who sold Chinese-made hats and t-shirts bearing the slogan “Let’s Go Brandon!” saw their operations boom while humble, hardworking lawyers like Todd Blanche, Emil Bove, and D John Sauer racked up huge fees for taking on big cases.

Everyone was doing pretty well, even if anxieties were piling up from the inflation wrought by the difficult post-COVID recovery of 2021-2022. Sure there were some national security scares like the malfunctioning Chinese spy balloon that some officials feared was carrying bioweapons from Wuhan and that children could be getting rainbow fentanyl in their Halloween candy. There were some major scandals, like Hunter Biden’s crack smoking and Mr Potato Head becoming non-binary. Many Americans became fed up with Disney casting a Black actress to play Ariel in The Little Mermaid remake and others with John F Kennedy Jr failing to resurrect and lead them to a new golden age.

All that and still it’s undeniable that every day more and more are feeling nostalgic for the economy they had during the Biden years and there’s really only one cure for it: Biden for president 2028.

Majority of Trump fans don’t agree Epstein files a “Democrat hoax”

Asked whether they agree with the statement “The Epstein files are a Democrat hoax perpetrated by radical left lunatics in order deflect from the great success of the Republican Party,” just 19 percent of overall respondents to the newest Yahoo News/YouGov national survey said yes while 61 percent said they disagree and the remaining 21 percent said they didn’t know what to think.

Among those who voted for convicted felon President Trump last year, just 41 percent said they agreed while 36 percent said they disagreed and 23 percent said they weren’t sure – combining for a 59 percent who do not quite trust the Orange God Emperor’s assertion. The latest poll also includes crosstabs for “MAGA Republicans” vs “Not MAGA Republicans” on which still a majority of MAGA, 54 percent (30/24 percent disagree/not sure) still did not say they agree with the “hoax” line.

West Virginia National Guard members killed in shooting

Both of the members of the West Virginia National Guard shot Wednesday in DC have died after being taken to local hospitals, Fox News reports, citing Gov Patrick Morrisey. Worth noting that they didn’t actually have to be there but Morrisey sent them to help with convicted felon President Trump’s stupid Potemkin military occupation of the nation’s capital because of “crime.”

“The animal that shot the two National Guardsmen, with both being critically wounded, and now in two separate hospitals, is also severely wounded, but regardless, will pay a very steep price. God bless our Great National Guard, and all of our Military and Law Enforcement. These are truly Great People. I, as President of the United States, and everyone associated with the Office of the Presidency, am with you!” the fat bastard posted from Mar-a-Lago shortly after the shooting.

Yet another former Peruvian president sentenced to prison

Joining former Presidents Alejandro Toledo, Ollanta Humala, and Pedro Castillo as the still-living inmates, ex-Peruvian leader Martin Vizcarra was sentenced Wednesday to 14 years in the joint for taking $600,000 in bribes while serving as a regional governor prior to taking the top national office in 2018, the AP reports. Recently impeached and removed ex-President Dina Boluarte is headed in the same direction, Alberto Fujimori died after being paroled last year, and Alan Garcia killed himself in 2019 as police closed in to cuff him for corruption related to some real-estate company.

Of the 12 presidents that Peru has had since Fujimori’s dictatorship, two of them – Manuel Merino, who served six days as interim leader in November 2020 before resigning, and Francisco Sagasti, who was appointed to take over and served until July 2021 – are alive and not in/facing prison.

Sagasti left office with a 50 percent approval rating. He should stay they hell away from the job, lol.

Swalwell v Fannie Man assigned to MAGA’s most-hated DC judge

“Congressman Brandon Gill (TX-26) today introduced articles of impeachment against James E Boasberg Chief Judge, United States District Court for the District of Columbia, for his abuse of judicial authority used to target conservative Members of Congress, organizations, and patriotic Americans. ‘Chief Judge Boasberg has compromised the impartiality of the judiciary and created a constitutional crisis,’ said Rep Gill. ‘He is shamelessly weaponizing his power against his political opponents – including Republican members of Congress who are faithfully serving the American people within their jurisdiction. Judge Boasberg was an accomplice in the egregious Arctic Frost scandal where he equipped the Biden DOJ to spy on Republican senators,’ Rep Gill continued.”

“‘His lack of integrity makes him clearly unfit for the gavel. I am proud to once again introduce articles of impeachment against Judge Boasberg to hold him accountable for his high crimes and misdemeanors.’ Judge Boasberg facilitated Special Counsel Jack Smith FBI’s project Arctic Frost, which spied on Republican Senators Marsha Blackburn, Ted Cruz, Lindsey Graham, Bill Hagerty, Josh Hawley, Ron Johnson, Cynthia Lummis, Rick Scott, Dan Sullivan, Tommy Tuberville, and Representative Mike Kelly,” says a press release from Dinesh D’Souza’s dipshit son-in-law.

That was three weeks ago and, while not what was billed in the headline, absolutely relevant background context to Dem Congressman Eric Swalwell’s lawsuit against Bill “Fannie Man” Pulte landing in Boasberg’s courtroom, Politico’s Kyle Cheney reports with a dramatic ellipses added.

Candace Owens demands transparency on French-Israeli plot to assassinate her for accusing Brigette Macron of being trans

Oh wait this tweet’s actually about whether the French-Israeli cabal assassinated Charlie Kirk.

Sorry for the mistake on that but in Candace’s current storyline they, having already dispensed with Kirk, are now after her for “exposing” that President Emmanuel Macron’s wife Brigette (legitimately a freaking groomer who snatched him up as a teenager, their marriage is so fucked up) is actually the new identity of her brother and there’s all this shit about like secret religious societies and of course Owens has to get the Jews involved… And now apparently the Trump Administration is silent on and complicit in this ongoing threat to Candace as well, sooooo… Yeah, that’s how it’s been going.

National Zero is not much for the Candace Owens beat but it seems like this woman’s mental health crisis might be starting to metastasize into yet another political vulnerability for the Orange God Emperor given the size and fanaticism of her following. One that, while it would not be necessarily a clear “own-goal” because she’s just making shit up and would be doing the same if Kamala Harris were president, Trump also has never discouraged this type of lunacy. So yeah, bring it on, lol.

Fulton County case against Trump and his minions dismissed

“COMES NOW, THE STATE, By and through Peter J Skandalakis, District Attorney Pro Tempore, and after a thorough examination of the case file, consideration of applicable statutory and case law, and prior to submission to a jury, the State hereby moves for entry of a Nolle Prosequi for the following reason: to serve the interests of justice and promote judicial finality (see exhibit A). For all remaining defendants, this disposition meets the criteria for the Georgia Crime Information Center to Restrict access to the criminal history for this arrest pursuant to OCGA 35 – 3 – 37(h)(2)(A),” writes Peter J Skandalakunt, the prosecutor who appointed himself to replace Fani Willis in the case against the Orange Tyrant and his minions over the post 2020-election coup attempt in the Peach State.

And Judge Scott McAfee immediately dismissed the case. Complete and total exoneration again.

Saudis stepping up to help Americans suffering from food prices

“Tanmiah Food Company, one of the Kingdom’s leading vertically integrated poultry and food producers, has announced a new collaboration with Big Idea Ventures, a global venture capital firm specializing in food, agriculture, and alternative protein technologies. The MoU was signed at the recent US–Saudi Investment Forum in Washington, DC, underscoring the depth of economic partnership between the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the United States,” says a Tanmiah press release that sounds like it came from a fever dream of some QAnon fan who’s turned on Trump.

Nevertheless it’s real.”The partnership lays the foundation for joint initiatives that support Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 food-security goals, particularly in strengthening the red-meat supply chain and building sustainable alternatives to imported feed ingredients. Tanmiah and BIV will work together to identify opportunities to acquire equity interests in established US red-meat producers subject to satisfactory financial, legal, and operational due diligence. Under a phased transaction approach, the two companies will also assess upstream opportunities including feedlots, breeding herds, and supporting infrastructure in line with the Kingdom’s growing demand for secure, resilient and sustainable red-meat supply chains. The collaboration will also focus on developing an agricultural ecosystem dedicated to cultivating alternative sustainable, locally grown feed ingredients. This initiative aims to reduce reliance on imported feedstocks while enabling more resilient and cost-efficient poultry and dairy production systems,” the press release continued.

Holy fuck this really is like leftist fanfic satirizing QAnon shit about Bill Gates.

Van Epps 49 – Behn 47 in TN-7 special: Emerson/The Hill poll

“A new Emerson College Polling/The Hill survey of the special election for US Congress in Tennessee’s 7th district finds 48 percent of voters support Republican Matt Van Epps and 46 percent support Democrat Aftyn Behn. Two percent plan to vote for one of three third-party candidates on the ballot, and 5 percent are undecided. When undecided voters are asked which candidate they lean toward, Van Epps’ overall support increases to 49 percent, and Behn to 47 percent,” says National Zero’s favorite pollster in a write-up on their test of the Trump +22 district’s December 2 special to finish out the term of now-resigned MAGA philanderer Mark Green.

Last month Emerson put Dem New Jersey Gov-Elect Mikie Sherrill ahead of Republican Jack Shittarelli 49 to 48 percent, five days before she won by 56.6 to 42.8 percent, so that was a 12.8 percent miss. In Virginia, where the college’s final poll put Dem Gov-Elect Abigail Spanberger up 55 to 44 percent over MAGA Lt Gov Winsome Sears was not as bad of a miss but still off by 4.2 as Spanberger’s final tally was 57.5 to Earle-Sears’s 42.3 percent. In New York City it’s a little trickier as their poll finding now-Mayor-Elect Zohran Mamdani at 50 percent to disgraced former Gov Andrew Cuomo’s 25 percent and Republican Curtis Sliwa’s 21 percent did nail Mamdani’s 50.4 percent bare majority win. At the same time Emerson massively oversold Sliwa and undersold Cuomo, who finished in second with 41.6 percent to Sliwa’s 7.1 percent, so that was still technically a 13.9 percent miss in favor of a Republican. The pollster used to only be good for mid-single-digits pro-GOP tilt.

Now none of this means Tennessee Dem state Representative Aftyn Behn has this in the bag despite Emerson’s demonstrated pattern of “reliability” in non-presidential years. In fact you should still expect her to lose given the recent surge of MAGA attention and right wing media circlejerking about some comments she made God knows when over Nashville’s country scene (lol).
