Wesley Hunt less than receptive to GOP’s pleas to back down

Texas MAGA Congressman Wesley Hunt tells CNN he’s heard Senate Republicans begging him to get the fuck out of the now-three-way primary for John Cornhole Cornyn’s seat but doesn’t give a shit that it’ll probably force a runoff between Cornyn and Picasso-faced Attorney General Ken Paxton that will cost them tens of millions of dollars, Hunt is “absolutely” staying in the race.

“If Senate leadership does not like me being in this race, you know what I say? Good, because Senate leadership does not pick the leadership in Texas,” Hunt said, adding “This is like a David and Goliath kind of story. I have a couple of smooth stones to throw at him, but guess what? They are very effective. The people of Texas are looking for an alternative, and it’s my job to give them one.”

A Cornyn ally says that “very senior Republicans,” are furious with Hunt and have repeatedly told him to get out of the race. This person did not, however, say if convicted felon President Trump was one of said very senior Republicans. In fact Hunt himself said that neither Donald nor any of his minions told him the same. “Nobody has told me a word,” Hunt said of the White House’s position.

Thing is that if Trump was going to make an endorsement and end this shitshow he probably would’ve done it already. Yet Cornyn persists in pleading with the fat bastard. “We’ll spend a lot of money that could be spent more productively elsewhere. If I’m at the top of the ticket, chances are that it will help down ballot races including these congressional seats that are now in litigation. So I think it’s in the president’s best interest, and that’s what I’ve explained to him,” he said.

New Zealand declares war on feral cats, vows to extirpate them

“The Government is delivering on its campaign promise to add feral cats to the Predator Free 2050 target species list to protect our precious native wildlife, Conservation Minister Tama Potaka says. ‘We know people want their local reserves, beaches and bush tracks to be full of birds, not predators. Including feral cats in the Predator Free 2050 goal means stronger protection for local wildlife, better tools for communities, and less impact on farmers, whānau and our economy.'”

“‘Feral cats are now found across Aotearoa New Zealand, from farms to forests, and they put huge pressure on native birds, bats, lizards and insects. They also spread toxoplasmosis, which harms dolphins, affects people, and costs farmers through lost stock,’ Mr Potaka says. The Department of Conservation’s consultation on the Predator Free Strategy received close to 3,400 submissions.'”

Over 90 percent backed improved feral cat management. ‘New Zealanders were clear. They want action,'” says a statement from Kiwi Conservation Minister Tama Potaka. Meow it’s personal.

Heads about to roll

Convicted felon President Trump has lately been, according to RealClearPolitics douchebag Paul Sperry, “growing increasingly unhappy with ‘economic messaging,’ among other things. Shakeup could include chief of staff in new year,” as though it’s just the “messaging” and not just his own failures to even attempt make good on his lie-filled campaign to avoid dying in prison.

Petition to create “Trump County, Florida” gathers 18 signatures

“We, the undersigned, urge the Florida State Legislature and Gov Ron DeSantis, in accordance with Article VIII, Section 1 of the Florida Constitution to create Florida’s 68th County – Trump County. The geography of the county shall be: the entirety of the coastal barrier islands, commencing with the northern point of Anastasia Island, terminating at the southern end of Ponce Inlet. The county will be separated from the mainland from the west by the Matanzas River and Halifax River.”

“President Trump is a once-in-a-generation leader, a master dealmaker, real estate titan, and the greatest president of our time. As the first president to call Florida home, it’s time we honor his extraordinary legacy by establishing Florida’s 68th county: Trump County – a lasting testament to his impact on our state and nation. This new county demands an extraordinary canvas, so we’re proposing a stunning 60-mile stretch of Northeast Florida’s pristine coastline. This jewel boasts breathtaking state parks, a world-class coastal golf resort, charming Old Florida towns, and the world’s most famous beach. With vast potential for growth and redevelopment, it’s the perfect stage for future Trump-inspired projects that will shine as brightly as his legacy,” says the OpenPetition.org campaign to create Trump County, Florida. It has 18 signatures of its goal of 500 so far.

Shapiro says state working on fixing fire-prone SEPTA rail cars

Pennsylvania Gov Josh Shapiro on Monday toured a maintenance plant in Malvern to check up on the Southeast Pennsylvania Transit Agency (SEPTA)’s progress in complying with a federal order to complete safety upgrades to the fire-prone Silverliner IV rail cars the agency uses, the AP reports.

“We cannot let SEPTA fail. We have to continue to be there for SEPTA and for all mass transit agencies. It’s too important for our economy, it’s too important for communities, it’s too important for our entire commonwealth,” Shapiro told reporters before he ordered his attorney general to open a criminal investigation into the company that made the rail cars and see if they have any connections to Venezuela. Shapiro then said SEPTA actually isn’t that important but he’ll also order the agency to come up with a new rail car that would be so much better than the Silverliners, which are too cold and don’t have sunroofs so you can see the sky while you’re riding on the train. Shapiro then said he would talk to the Emir of Dubai about designing a new rail car, they have such wonderful rail cars there in Dubai. And there’s no crime on them either. No crime on their trains, can you imagine that?

Okay that was fake news. The real story is one of such boring competence and responsible leadership in addressing a real issue that it needed a contrast of the other kind of “leadership.”

Fox Newsman struggles to cope with Comey/Letitia James fail

Fox Newsweiner Charlie Hurt on Monday coped and not very well with the stupid bullshit cases against former FBI Director James Comey and New York Attorney General Letitia James getting dismissed, trying to explain it away as a “fluke side ruling” as though that somehow undoes the damage to the regime’s ambitions to weaponize the justice system against the Orange Tyrant’s foes.

Offer Shlomi launches primary vs Republican Texas Congressman

Offer Shlomi, better known as “Vince Offer,” a former TV pitchman famous for the “ShamWow” miracle towels, the nut chopper, the “Underground Comedy Movie” starring Joey Buttafuoco, and getting arrested for punching a hooker after she bit his tongue because he’s the kind of John that passionately kisses prostitutes, has filed to launch a primary challenge against 84 year-old Republican Texas Congressman John Carter in the state’s 31st District, NBC News reports.

It’s not clear if Shlomi used his legal name in the filing documents. Shlomi’s campaign is said to be a crusade to “destroy wokeism” in Congress and a tribute to the “original woke-buster” Charlie Kirk.

Jim Comey, Letitia James completely and totally exonerated

A South Carolina federal judge in on Monday tossed the Trump Regime’s “cases” against former FBI Director James Comey and New York Attorney General Letitia James, finding that incompetent idiot Eastern Virginia US Attorney Lindsey Halligan was appointed unlawfully by scumbag Pam Bondi.

“Mr Comey now moves to dismiss the indictment on the ground that Ms Halligan, the sole prosecutor who presented the case to the grand jury, was unlawfully appointed in violation of 28 USC § 546 and the Constitution’s Appointments Clause. As explained below, I agree with Mr Comey that the Attorney General’s attempt to install Ms Halligan as Interim US Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia was invalid. And because Ms Halligan had no lawful authority to present the indictment, I will grant Mr Comey’s motion and dismiss the indictment without prejudice,” wrote South Carolina Senior Judge Cameron McGowan Currie who was appointed by the Fourth Circuit to weigh on the matter of Halligan’s legitimacy from outside the Eastern District of Virginia.

That Currie tossed Comey’s charges without prejudice rather than with is a distinction without a difference: Because the five year statute of limitations is already up there’s no way to bring the same charges again. He walks and there’s no recourse for the Trump Reich. They’re going to have to come up with some other pretextual pile of bullshit inside of the last five years to go after him.

Earlier this month George Conway refused to speculate on what would ultimately destroy the case against Comey, saying that there were simply too many different ways the former FBI director could get the charges tossed he didn’t want to name any one of them as the likeliest kill shot.

The case against James meanwhile can be revived but need more info on that.

Petey Pee Pants threatens to recall Mark Kelly for court martial

“A thorough review of these allegations has been initiated to determine further actions, which may include recall to active duty for court-martial proceedings or administrative measures. This matter will be handled in compliance with military law, ensuring due process and impartiality.”

“Further official comments will be limited, to preserve the integrity of the proceedings. The Department of War reminds all individuals that military retirees remain subject to the UCMJ for applicable offenses, and federal laws such as 18 USC § 2387 prohibit actions intended to interfere with the loyalty, morale, or good order and discipline of the armed forces. Any violations will be addressed through appropriate legal channels. All servicemembers are reminded that they have a legal obligation under the UCMJ to obey lawful orders and that orders are presumed to be lawful.”

“A servicemember’s personal philosophy does not justify or excuse the disobedience of an otherwise lawful order,” the tweet continued after the cutoff and good God the performative milking of this is so fucking lame and impotent. Stop threatening to do something and just do it you pussies.

MAGA Land workshops bold new policy agenda for Trump

“Trump needs to concentrate on the economy, gas, energy and food prices, and continued ICE operations. Some work needs to be done on housing affordability and healthcare costs. Don’t give democrats any opening” – Top comment on the Fox News article “Trump claims GOP has ‘never been so united,’ calls Greene and other Republicans ‘lowlifes,'” posted Sunday evening.

Wow, that’s a pretty solid policy plan, right? You’d think a candidate who hammers it constantly could win over a lot of voters and maybe even get them to overlook their manifold character flaws and predilection for criminally insane behavior including violent sexual abuse of women. That it’s a Fox News commenter saying this – and with some very scarcely concealed frustration over these issues – seems to indicate that they would like the current president to be that candidate.

And to ditch the tedious sarcasm for a bit this is freaking gold. Love the remove from it too, like a WFAN caller saying the Yankees need to develop a better bullpen if they’re going to be in serious contention next year because failure to do so would give the Red Sox an opening. This asshole wants Trump to make it look like he’s concentrating on affordability because the other team could win on those issues, rather than that making shit more affordable would be a win in and of itself.

Jake Sherman follows up

Self-quoting from his earlier reporting on how several House Republicans told him they hate their jobs and considering resigning their seats, Punchbowl’s Jake Sherman writes that “since this ran this morning – 4 hours ago? – I’ve gotten countless text messages from House Republicans agreeing with this sentiment and saying why the hell should we stay in Congress if all we’re going to do is vote on censures and be a potted plant.” Would be nice if at least some of those “countless” members follow through if they’ve already given up on hanging onto the majority into 2027.

“We’re a long way from Nuremberg trials and slaughtering Jews”

This stitching of clips is long but it’s worth a watch to appreciate how fucking unhinged House GOP Caucus chair Lisa McClain is with defending convicted felon President Trump’s meltdowns and threatening to have Dem members of Congress executed for that video in which they encouraged military personnel to disobey illegal orders. The “We’re a long way from Nuremberg trials and slaughtering Jews” line from her is particularly insane since it’s basically her saying that Trump hasn’t repeated the Holocaust yet so why is anyone worried at this point. What a freaking animal.

Canada yet to be punished with 10 percent tariff over Reagan ad

Convicted felon President Trump’s regime has yet to actually follow through on the fat bastard’s pledge to increase tariffs on Canadian exports by 10 percent after Ontario Premier Doug Ford accurately quoted former President Ronald Reagan in a video opposing the pointless and probably illegal levies, the Independent reports on more TACOing from the Orange God Emperor.

Benny Johnson impressed by classic low-rent dictator excuse

“Immigration is maybe having a negative impact on my party”

Republican former North Carolina Gov Pat McCrory tells Politico that he’s worried that convicted felon President Trump’s regime is overplaying their “mandate” in the Tar Heel State with the recent ICE surge in Charlotte and that there could be some consequences for incidents like a US citizen getting arrested in a shopping center parking lot and a raid on a country club house.

“Republicans had the upper hand on immigration, as long as they were going after the criminals and the gangs, but I think they’re losing the upper hand on that issue because of the apparent disjointed implementation of arrest. From a PR and political standpoint, for the first time, immigration is maybe having a negative impact on my party,” McCrory said, adding “if I were the administration, I would be really emphasizing who they’ve arrested and the negative impact they’ve had on the community, but we’re not hearing that.” This as though Homeland Security and ICE don’t constantly publicize and post about the criminal suspects they’ve arrested, so what McCrory’s actually complaining about is the “family-oriented” migrants that keep getting tossed in the gulag, which they won’t stop doing.

Edwin Peacock III, a moderate Republican who lost an at-large Charlotte City Council race to a Dem earlier this month, warned the raids are leaving “a real sour aftertaste” with voters. “Is the price of doing this worth it? I don’t see this cloud moving away from what will be in the voters’ minds.”

Surprise! Trump T1 phone still vaporware

You will not be surprised to learn that, according to NBC News, they and indeed all other would-be buyers who put down a $100 deposit to preorder the not-actually-made-in-America $500 Trump Mobile T1 smartphone when it was first announced have yet to receive their reskin of a $169-ish Chinese budget Android model two months after the anticipated street date of September.

NBC writes that during one of their repeated calls to the customer support line in October asking where the goddamned phone was they were told the phone would ship on November 13th. With that date having come and gone, they called again and the support agent said early December.

“The operator cited the government shutdown as a reason for the delay, without further explanation,” says the article and L-O-freaking-L, my kingdom for that person’s internal logic behind that excuse. Was it supposed to be some sort of customs issue or what? Holy shit.
