Cartoonish vigilante/former AM radio host/two-time New York City mayoral election loser Curtis Sliwa tells Time he refused to accept a $10 million bribe offered by a set of billionaires desperate to get him to drop out to help Andrew Cuomo win defeat now-Mayor-Elect Zohran Mamdani.
Sliwa did not name the billionaires (*cough* Bill Ackman, John Catsimatidis) who pretty plainly committed a major federal felony by attempting the bribe. He refused out of hatred for Cuomo.
Acting FEMA Director David Richardson, the dumb schmuck who had no idea hurricane season is a thing when he was hired after the previous FEMA chief was fired for being too pro-FEMA, resigned on Monday ahead of an expected firing for who knows what the dumbass did “wrong,” ABC reports.
The comedy value of the bears vs humans in Japan storyline continued to wane into “Okay seriously what the actual fuck is going on over there?” further on Sunday as a bear was tranquilized and then killed by responders via electrocution (no idea how or why that was the preferred method) after the animal wandered into a mall in Akita Prefecture, the Mainichi reports on the latest incident.
“A staff member made an emergency call to police around 11:20 am to report the entry into the mall of the bear, which was found near the first-floor furniture section. It was tranquilized by a blow dart before being killed by electric shock more than two hours later,” the national daily paper writes in the English version of their website of the encounter at the Aeon Noshiro mall in the town of Noshiro.
“I will be strongly endorsing against any State Senator or House member from the Great State of Indiana that votes against the Republican Party, and our Nation, by not allowing for Redistricting for Congressional seats in the United States House of Representatives as every other State in our Nation is doing, Republican or Democrat. Democrats are trying to steal our seats everywhere, and we’re not going to let this happen! This all began with the Rigged Census. We must keep the Majority at all costs. Republicans must fight back!” posted convicted felon President Trump on Monday, no longer bothering with the bullshit post-hoc justifications that Dems did it in Illinois, etc.
In an order issued on Monday, the federal judge overseeing the very bullshit “case” against former FBI Director James Comey wrote “This matter is before the Court to address the narrow issue of whether there are particularized and factually based grounds to justify the disclosure of grand jury materials to the defense pursuant to Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 6(e)(3)(E)(ii) For the reasons set forth below, the Court finds the record in this case requires the full disclosure of grand jury materials. In so finding, the Court recognizes this is an extraordinary remedy, but given the factually based challenges the defense has raised to the government’s conduct and the prospect that government misconduct may have tainted the grand jury proceedings, disclosure of grand jury materials under these unique circumstances is necessary to fully protect the rights of the accused.”
Emphasis added to stress the “government misconduct” part. That’s bad. Very bad for the regime.
McDonald’s CEO Chris Kempczinski last week told investors that the Golden Arches has been seeing a double-digit drop in sales from lower-income households, the Los Angeles Times reports on a sign that what is still cheap, shitty processed food products becoming something of a luxury item. The CEO said as much, saying that sales from higher-income households swung the opposite direction.
And that’s the backdrop to convicted felon President Trump’s “Affordability Week” as the fat bastard hosts McDonald’s franchisees at an event in DC on Monday, per Axios. There is zero chance that pressuring them to find ways to lower prices takes up more time than him casting doubt on whether former Vice President Kamala Harris ever worked at a McD’s in the 1980s and then his stupid staged campaign stunt when he “worked” the drive-thru at a Pennsylvania location owned by a donor.
There’ll be a lot of that because it’s easier to for him to ramble about than the legendary $18 Big Mac meal at a rest stop on I-95 in Connecticut that MAGA incel podcaster Tim Pool in 2023 gleefully hailed as “the apocalypse for Joe Biden,” that is certainly still costs $18, if not more, now.
You just said MAGA is dead and told people to burn their MAGA hats. Get a grip already.
You’re either MAGA or a Democrat. Time to decide.
One minute you want to destroy Trump, the next you’re kissing his ass. Zero loyalty.

FBI Director Kash Patel has assigned the SWAT team from the Bureau’s Nashville field office to act as a security detail for his girlfriend, 27 year-old country “star” Alexis Wilkins, MS Now reports on more waste, fraud, and abuse by the Hindu law enforcement official hated in much of MAGAmerica.
“There is no legitimate justification for this. This is a clear abuse of position and misuse of government resources,” said former FBI agent/MS Now contributor Christopher O’Leary. “She is not his spouse, does not live in the same house or even the same city. I would also add that this comes at a time when security details were stripped from people who are under threat from” Iran.
Super plugged-in Beltway GOP megadonor-friendly bullet-point factory Axios has “scooped” (their headline literally says “Scoop: Ted Cruz sets stage for 2028 run with Tucker jabs”) that the Republican Texas Senator is gearing up for a 2028 presidential campaign by feuding with the former top Fox News propagandist over his recent platforming of Neo-Nazi zoomer influencer Nick Fuentes.
“We have a responsibility to speak out even when it’s uncomfortable,” Cruz said in a statement to Axios. “When voices in our own movement push dangerous and misguided ideas, we can’t look the other way. I won’t hesitate to call out those who peddle destructive, vile rhetoric and threaten our principles and our future. Silence in the face of recklessness is not an option,” Cruz continued.
Nothing in the article says anything about Cruz’s plans to appeal to actual voters in a GOP primary and then a general election, something that’ll be the afterthought it usually is in Republican politics. Instead right now this is about getting through to the donor class and bumping off a possible populist rival who, if he runs, will be doing little if any dog-whistling about Jews two years from now.
“On November 5, 2025, the Shreveport Police Department began investigating a theft at the Hustler Hollywood store located in the 6100 block of Financial Plaza. Three unidentified female suspects entered the business and collectively took nearly $1,000 worth of merchandise without paying.”
“The individuals were last seen leaving the location in a silver sedan. Anyone with information that may assist in identifying these suspects is urged to contact the Shreveport Police Department at 318-673-7300. Those wishing to remain anonymous may contact Caddo Crime Stoppers at 318-673-7373. Crime Stoppers pays cash rewards for information that leads to the identification or arrest of individuals responsible for crimes,” says the Shreveport, Louisiana Police Department in a press release that scrupulously avoids saying what the Hustler Hollywood store actually sells.
A court in Bangladesh on Monday sentenced exiled former dictator Sheikh Hasina to death in absentia for her role in hundreds of extrajudicial killings during the bloody protests that led to her ouster last year, the AP reports and yeah, she probably isn’t coming back now.
“As I said on Friday night aboard Air Force One to the Fake News Media, House Republicans should vote to release the Epstein files, because we have nothing to hide, and it’s time to move on from this Democrat Hoax perpetrated by Radical Left Lunatics in order to deflect from the Great Success of the Republican Party, including our recent Victory on the Democrat ‘Shutdown.’ The Department of Justice has already turned over tens of thousands of pages to the Public on ‘Epstein,’ are looking at various Democrat operatives (Bill Clinton, Reid Hoffman, Larry Summers, etc) and their relationship to Epstein, and the House Oversight Committee can have whatever they are legally entitled to, I DON’T CARE! All I do care about is that Republicans get BACK ON POINT, which is the Economy, ‘Affordability’ (where we are winning BIG!), our Victory on reducing Inflation from the highest level in History to practically nothing, bringing down prices for the American People, delivering Historic Tax Cuts, gaining Trillions of Dollars of Investment into America (A RECORD!), the rebuilding of our Military, securing our Border, deporting Criminal Illegal Aliens, ending Men in Women’s Sports, stopping Transgender for Everyone, and so much more! Nobody cared about Jeffrey Epstein when he was alive and, if the Democrats had anything, they would have released it before our Landslide Election Victory. Some ‘members’ of the Republican Party are being ‘used,’ and we can’t let that happen. Let’s start talking about the Republican Party’s Record Setting Achievements, and not fall into the Epstein ‘TRAP,’ which is actually a curse on the Democrats, not us,” posted convicted felon President Trump on Sunday night after a week of publicly freaking out in a rage over this.
It’s not clear why he won’t just order it all released instead of having them waste time on the vote.
“This evening, my family and I were victims of a swatting incident during which a fake communication was sent to local law enforcement officials. Vigo County sheriff’s deputies responded to the incident under the impression of a domestic violence emergency.”
“The deputies professionally fulfilled their duty. While this entire incident is unfortunate and reflective of the volatile nature of our current political environment, I give thanks to God that my family and I are ok. I want to thank Vigo County Sheriff Derek Fell, Terre Haute Police Chief Kevin Barrett and the first responders who serve our county and community with bravery and professionalism” said Indiana Republican state Senator Greg Goode in a press release on Sunday.
There’s no big mystery as to why Goode was swatted, as it came just hours after convicted felon President Trump posted “Very disappointed in Indiana State Senate Republicans, led by RINO Senators Rod Bray and Greg Goode, for not wanting to redistrict their State, allowing the United States Congress to perhaps gain two more Republican seats. The Democrats have done redistricting for years, often illegally, and all other appropriate Republican States have done it. Because of these two politically correct type ‘gentlemen,’ and a few others, they could be depriving Republicans of a Majority in the House, A VERY BIG DEAL! California is trying to pick up five seats, and no one is complaining about that.” He kept going but need to stop him there given the outright lie of that last part. He’s literally fucking suing California to try to overturn Proposition 50’s offset redistricting.
A spree killer who wrote “catch me if u can” with one of his victims’ blood on the wall at the murder scene and also left a note saying “Good luck finding me, LMFAO” was executed by firing squad in South Carolina on Friday, USA Today reports on the consequences of getting caught.
Stephen Corey Bryant, 44, had pleaded guilty to three murders committed in October 2004 but it was the second, that of 62 year-old Willard “TJ” Tietjen, for which Bryant was condemned for the particularly depraved manner in which he abused Tietjen before shooting him nine times.
It’s impossible to express how desperate and pathetic this is. Go see a shrink. pic.twitter.com/GCWAowGDZx

“Today, the Salt Lake County District Attorney’s Office, Sim Gill, Salt Lake County District Attorney announced the office declined to file criminal charges against Tim Ballard related to allegations of sexual assault and misconduct. District Attorney Sim Gill said: ‘We want to begin by recognizing the bravery it takes to come forward and disclose deeply personal and traumatic experiences. We acknowledge the impact of these events and commend the courage it took to speak with investigators and participate in the process. In our justice system, the State carries the burden of proving criminal charges beyond a reasonable doubt. This standard is the highest in our law, designed to ensure fairness and prevent wrongful convictions. It does not mean that we disbelieve or diminish a survivor’s account, but rather that the law requires evidence strong enough to remove every reasonable doubt for a jury,'” says the Salt Lake County, Utah DA’s office in a statement.
“‘After a thorough investigation, we determined that there is insufficient admissible evidence to meet the legal burden of proof. While the survivors have provided important and compelling statements, critical corroborating evidence is unavailable, and certain necessary elements of the charges cannot be established with the certainty required by the law. This decision does not diminish the value of the survivors’ voices or the harm they have experienced. We remain committed to supporting survivors, connecting them with resources, and pursuing accountability whenever the evidence meets the legal and ethical standards. We also stand ready to revisit this matter if additional evidence becomes available.’ We commend the courage of those who came forward and the work of law enforcement who investigated these matters. All persons accused of wrongdoing are presumed innocent unless and until convicted in a court of law,” the statement continued.
