Okay, you already guessed: The New York Times reports that former White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt – who still hasn’t actually been replaced – is headed to Fox News. Leavitt, whose husband is around the same age as her dad, will start at the propaganda network on November 1st.

In contrast to predecessor Jen Psaki’s MSNow gig, Leavitt will serve as a rotating contributor to various far right programming hours rather than immediate host of her own show. The hire also represents a missed opportunity for Pod Save America host and former Obama speechwriter Jon Lovett to retool his solo series, “Lovett or Leave It,” to a debate format titled “Lovett or Leavitt.”

Such a podcast would have sucked only slightly less than Karoline’s upcoming Fox contributions.

Rather than just buy ad space and targeting the ad spending where the people who are supposed to be voting for him live, the Senate GOP’s main PAC decided it was too much paperwork and decided to run the pro-Ken Paxton PAC ads in about 49 other states on Sunday, according to various reports.

“Pro-Paxton Texas PAC seems to have bought nationwide ad time on Fox instead of trying to target all the markets showing Cowboys/Texans — so their ads are running on Eagles/Rams, Packers/Bucs and Jets/Bears as well… Given how big Texas is (20+ markets) I wouldn’t be surprised if this is actually the cheaper option. Pretty sure groups were buying national ads for Texas/Ohio State two weeks ago,” writes Inside Elections’ Jacob Rubashkin with a theory on why the assholes are doing it.

This story benefits from more straightforward chronology than the one presented by the Houston Chronicle in their story headlined “Greg Abbott pulls endorsement of Texas House candidate after video shows DWI arrest, racial slur,” emphasis added on the conditional nature of the undorsement.

On February 14th, Republican Texas state House District 144 candidate David Flores – currently running to unseat Pasadena Dem State Representative Mary Ann Perez – was pulled over by cops, blew a 0.11 on the breathalyzer, and arrested for DWI. In May, Governor Low Energy Greg Abbott announced his endorsement of Flores, who the next month pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor and was sentenced to probation. A timeline which means that for the better part of the last four months it was an immutable matter of public record that Flores had, in a court of law, admitted to the crime.

It was not however until last week that Dem strategy group the Lone Star Project had obtained and published video of Flores’s arrest in which he tried to pull rank on the cops by telling them Abbott had endorsed him (three months before the endorsement was publicly announced) and that he was friends with extremist nerd state lawmaker Briscoe Cain, then for reasons unclear muttered “fucking pig shit ass [n-word]” while in the back seat of the squad car following the failed sobriety test.

“Sad to see that Fox and Friends (Sunday) is not covering our packed house and incredibly enthusiastic (beyond!) Rally that took place in Ohio last night, or the ones in Alabama, Texas, or Oklahoma over the past two days. These Election Rallies were representative of what is really happening with our great Republican Party. They were all sold out, with thousands of people trying to get in, and are absolutely phenomenal, better than ever! It’s the old undercurrent at FoxNews!”

“Other networks are reporting about these Rallies, and really positively, like ‘crazy!’ Our people want to see our Rallies, and reports on our Rallies, on FoxNews, or they will very quickly stop watching (like I am doing right now!). Fox spends more time talking to Communists, Socialists, and Dumocrats, often without rebuttal, and MAGA is not, to put it mildly, happy. We don’t like stupid Jessica Tarlov, and all of the others, that are forced down MAGA’S throats. These Rallies are the hottest things out there, tremendous love in those sold out arenas, and nothing shows up on Fox! Also, phenomenal ratings for those that properly report. Who makes these decisions at FoxNews? Probably the same loser that fired the great Maria Bartiromo because she complained about not being allowed to cover ‘TRUMP.’ She’ll end up bigger and better than ever – watch! Cover our ‘happenings,’ and not the opposition to Greatness for America, or FoxNews will soon have the ratings of FAKE NEWS CNN or MSNOW (MSDNC). Remember, Fox tried this act once before, and almost went out of business (and always right before an election!). That can happen again!” posted convicted felon President Trump on Sunday, too far gone to realize that Fox News is most likely actually trying to help Republican in the Midterms by not showing his demented performances to half-empty Red State venues.

Kinda like that time they refused to play the audio of the House January 6th hearings.

National Zero’s “movie night” posts became an irregular thing because YouTube kinda ran out of decent PG-13 movies… Until of course this one entered their catalog.

Continuing his (amazingly justified) tirade over the far-right extremist Arkansas Senator blocking a bill implenting Year-Round Daylight Saving Time nationwide, convicted felon President Trump on Saturday shared Tom Cotton’s cell phone number at the bottom of a lengthy Truth Social post.

No need to paste the whole rant here, just the important part: 479-453-0533.

The Senate Leadership Fund PAC, the top Republican money machine for the chamber, is pulling the plug on spending in North Carolina, deeming former RNC chair Mike Whatley’s bid against Dem former Gov Roy Cooper a lost cause, Axios reports, adding that the SLF is diverting to defend Kansas Senator Roger Marshall, the douchebag who sued his patients for owing him amounts like $129.

Another poll on Friday put Dem Adam Hamilton leading Marshall 50 to 48 percent.

The cope over the monthly jobs report coming in at 29,000 added to payrolls in September, two-thirds short of the 89,000-ish expected, was rough on Fox Business News on Friday.

“Republicans in the Senate have to get moving on what I call the ‘No More Changing of Clocks Act,’ officially known as The Sunshine Protection Act, a ridiculous Clock changing process that takes place twice a year, costs our Country a fortune, is bad for Crime, stress on people, Sports, and just about everything else you can imagine. Even the highly respected PGA Commissioner, Brian Rolapp, needs it for the completion of Golf Tournaments in the Winter, when they just plain run out of sunlight. People don’t want to go around changing their Clocks anymore and, besides, far and away, most people like having an hour of extra sunlight in the evening, rather than in the morning.”

“The House has passed this Bill, 308-117, on July 14, 2026, with Great Bipartisan support. Both Democrats and Republicans want it to happen. It’s now up to the US Senate where it would be another Great Bipartisan Victory. Unfortunately, it’s being held up by Senator Tom Cotton, of Arkansas, for reasons unknown. People are sick and tired of having to change their Clocks twice a year. Even most farmers would rather have additional time in the evening to harvest their crops. It is foolish, inconvenient and, in some cases, very costly. For Cities and States with Watchtowers, and hard to reach places, it costs Millions of Dollars,” posted convicted felon President Trump just after midnight Friday and just gotta stop there because it appears the fat bastard seriously just confused “clock towers” with “Watchtowers.” Very on-brand, both the dementia-induced word slip and bizarre, forced concern for workers having to manually adjust the arms/gears of however many large, public analog clocks exist whose owners/operators actually bother to change for DST.

All the shit that convicted felon President Trump has announced to help salvage Republicans’ electoral prospects where they’re in trouble – a $50 billion natural gas pipeline in Alaska, a $15 billion steel plant in Iowa and a $3.2 billion bridge project in Alabama – are coming too late to make any meaningful difference on the ballot, Politico has decided.

“I stated, numerous times, that it would take 4-6 weeks to get rid of THE IRAN NUCLEAR THREAT, and I did it in one night! The rest of the time is just to make sure it stays that way,” posted the President of the United States on Thursday as his awesome sky headquarters barreled toward Texas so he could help contain another major threat to American freedom.

“Freddie Mac (OTCQB: FMCC) today released the results of its Primary Mortgage Market Survey® (PMMS®), showing the 30-year fixed-rate mortgage (FRM) averaged 7.28 percent” says Freddie Mac in a press release that then quotes Chief Economist Sam Khater saying “With mortgage rates on their current trajectory, the housing market continues to be supported by favorable economic conditions,” apparently with a straight face as he’d be fired if he said it’s not good for homebuyers.

Arkansas Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders on Thursday bemoaned all the “manufactured” blowback from MAGAmerica over her moronic “gamer” ad that depicted a white slacker as a welfare recipient, with the “white” part being the actual problem for a shit ton of far right influencers.

Jack Posobiec and a shit ton of others screamed that more Black Arkansans are on welfare than whites, which is true, but since more Arkansans are white, any one random recipient is more likely to be white than Black… Which Huckabee did not actually say on Fox and Friends, instead just pretended there was some conspiracy against her and then filled the rest of the time with robotic soundbites about her efforts to make life harder for poor people.

The federal complaint filed by Trump Regime murder victim Renee Nicole Good against her killer, ICE agent Jonathan Ross, along with Stephen Miller, Kristi Noem, Corey Lewandowski, “czar” Tom Homan, former ICE director Todd Lyons, former Border Patrol official Greg Bovino, and ten other unidentified ICE officials is a 149-page dystopian horror novel about the utterly ghastly chain of events that led to her death and the abysmal aftermath. From page 10 of the introduction:

“As the federal government branded Renee a terrorist and declared that Ross had done nothing wrong, it moved to hide the evidence of what actually occurred on Portland Avenue. On the morning of the shooting, the FBI and the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension (‘BCA’) agreed to a joint investigation, as is standard in officerinvolved deaths. By that evening the United States Attorney had reversed course; BCA investigators were excluded from the interviews at the Whipple Federal Building, denied the names of the officers involved, and cut off from the vehicle and its contents, the shell casings, and the firearm. Renee and Becca’s car was removed from the scene before local investigators could process it. The Deputy Attorney General, Todd Blanche, announced: ‘We investigate when it’s appropriate to investigate. And that is not the case here… So no, we are not investigating.’ Numerous federal prosecutors resigned, and an FBI agent resigned after being pressured to abandon a civil rights inquiry into Ross in favor of an investigation of Becca instead.”

“Becca” being Renee’s wife, Rebecca Good, who along with her brother, Brent Ganger, also filed a separate, shorter complaint against the federal government as an individual entity.

From a lengthy and incomprehensible Time Magazine interview with President Trump:

It was said Ken Paxton for Senate 2026 was going to be a money pit, that it would cost Republicans and their donors a quarter-billion-dollars-plus to get him elected. That was probably underselling it as the newly-formed Texas PAC alone has spent $131 million in the 17 days leading up to this Tuesday, per Axios, quantifying just how badly the GOP is freaking the fuck out over the prospect of losing the seat for which $90 million+ was sunk into John Cornyn’s losing primary defense.

Sources tell Politico that Missouri Senator Eric Schmitt has identified his general counsel Ethan Harper as responsible for Schmitt making himself look like a complete fucking asshole during Tuesday’s hearing starring former Justice Department special counsel and Harper’s new White House job, which he was to start on Friday, is now in doubt because his incompetence is a bridge too far for that crew. “There is no evidence Harper was responsible for the gaffe,” Politico writes, lol.
