Suck it libs! LMAO! Lawfare’s Anna Bower reports your fake news BlueAnon BS didn’t work!

“Chuck Grassley, who I got re-elected to the US Senate when he was down, by a lot, in the Great State of Iowa, could solve the ‘Blue Slip’ problem we are having with respect to the appointment of Highly Qualified Judges and US Attorneys, with a mere flick of the pen,” posted convicted felon President Trump on Tuesday, apparently thinking he can threaten a 92 year-old man – who was in the Senate before his colleagues Jon Ossoff, Tim Sheehy, Andy Kim, and Katie Britt, as well as Vice President JD Vance, were born – into abolishing an institutional norm with a “mere flick of the pen.”

Also, when the hell was Grassley ever in trouble in a reelection campaign?

Anyway, the fat fuck kept caterwauling about the norm which apparently he’s just now actually finally understanding after previously making it very much clear he did not. “Democrats like Schumer, Warner, Kaine, Booker, Schiff, and others, SLEAZEBAGS ALL, have an ironclad stoppage of Great Republican Candidates. Put simply, the President of the United States will never be permitted to appoint the person of his choice because of an ancient, and probably Unconstitutional, ‘CUSTOM,’ that if you have, even one person in the opposite Party serving in the US Senate, he/she must give consent, thereby completely stopping the opposite Party’s Nomination. The only way to beat this Hoax is to appoint a Democrat or, a weak and ineffective Republican,” Trump continued in the rant.

Copying verbatim the content of this tweet from Punchbowl’s Andrew Desiderio to not mince the words: “The White House is intensely lobbying Republican senators to oppose a congressional stock trading ban set to be marked up tomorrow. Why? Because senators plan to offer a substitute: a bill that would extend the stock trading ban to the President and Vice President”

Sooooo yeah, this isn’t an 80/20 issue. Probably more like a 99.98/0.02 issue. Even that’s probably too generous and yet Trump’s billions of shares in his scam side businesses are apparently more important than him being on the right side of it, especially at a time when the “anti-establishment” podcaster bro set are already getting deeply suspicious of him over the Epstein shitshow.

Well that was easy. Fox News reports that House Oversight Chairbilly James Comer has rejected convicted sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell’s conditions for an interview, specifically the immunity.

“Homicide Detectives are investigating a shooting/stabbing incident that left one man dead and another injured on July 29 in Wells-Goodfellow. At approximately 7:25 am, officers received a call for a shooting in the parking lot of Wendy’s Restaurant in the 3400 block of Union Blvd. Upon arriving, officers located a 28 year-old man on the ground suffering from multiple stab wounds.”

“A second man, 52, was located nearby suffering from gunshot wounds. A preliminary investigation revealed the two men, who are coworkers at Wendy’s, got involved in an argument over personal matters with each other while inside the business. The argument turned physical and moved outside the restaurant and onto the parking lot. During the physical altercation, the 52-year-old man stabbed the 28-year-old man, and the 28-year-old man shot the 52-year-old man. EMS responded and transported the 28-year-old man to the hospital where he was listed in critical but stable condition. The 52-year-old man was pronounced dead at the scene. A firearm and knife were recovered by officers at the scene,” says the St Louis Metro Police Department in a press release.

“The Wendy’s was reopened later in the day, so don’t be afraid to try their NEW Takis Fuego™ Chicken Sandwich and Fuego™ Fries inspired by Takis® are next-level heat for the ultimate spice lovers,” the press release did not say because they don’t have the moxie to realize that would’ve been a great opportunity to sell advertising space for a company who could use a little image boost.

BREAKING: President Trump says he banned Jeffrey Epstein from Mar-a-Lago after he repeatedly poached Trump's staff from the spa, even after Trump warned him to stop. This included one of Epstein's most well-known victims, Virginia Giuffre. pic.twitter.com/O4muyF33JJ

Small-faced right propagandist Charlie Kirk on Tuesday celebrated another complete and total exoneration for President Trump in which he was cleared of all suspicion finally, once and for all, by saying he ended his friendship with Jeffrey Epstein in the early 2000s when Epstein poached a Mar-a-Lago spa employee who was later raped by Prince Andrew and then committed suicide a few months ago. Sorry libs, game over. No collusion, no obstruction. You lose again. America is BACK!

Right wing Alberta Premier Danielle Smith and a bunch of her minions on Tuesday called on the province’s chief electoral officer Gordon McClure to quit fucking around and move get moving on putting the referendum to declare independence from Canada on the ballot, CTV News reports.

“As it is the Government of Alberta that ultimately decides how or if to implement any referendum result, those government decisions will ultimately be subject to constitutional scrutiny,” Smith ally and provincial Justice Minister Mickey Amery wrote Tuesday. “We encourage Elections Alberta to withdraw its court reference and permit Albertans their democratic right to participate in the citizen initiative process,” Amery continued, referring to the petition phase prior to a ballot measure.

McClure hasn’t explained if the question, the weighty one of “Do you agree that the Province of Alberta shall become a sovereign country and cease to be a province in Canada?” was referred to the courts because of any specific concerns, only saying Monday that provincial laws require potential referendum questions to respect more than 30 sections of the Constitution.

Sounds like friction. For her part Smith doesn’t actually favor independence but like most conservative politicians who are just in it for the money like Kevin McCarthy and David Cameron she’s always gotta cater to the extremes and let them fuck everything up instead of getting in the way. It’s probably only a matter of time before the Make Alberta Great Again crowd start accusing her of secretly encouraging McClure’s very vaguely-premised resistance to the petition drive.

No it wasn’t in the head. Really. Well at least this time it was in the chest. Can’t speak for previous horse kickings suffered by dullard Tennessee MAGA Congressman Tim Burchett but according to the Washington Examiner it was square in the ribs. “While working on his farm over the weekend, Congressman Burchett was accidentally kicked by a horse. He suffered a broken rib and bruising but hasn’t missed a beat,” said a Burchett spokeswiener in a statement that did not elaborate on why the horse wasn’t in the mood for his affections. Or if Burchett was just really extra significantly more drunk than usual and mistook the horse that doesn’t like it for the one that does.

“US Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers in Maine arrested an illegally present Jamaican offender after he unlawfully attempted to purchase a firearm. Officers with ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations Boston in partnership with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives arrested Jon Luke Evans July 25 in Biddeford. At the time of his arrest, Evans was employed as a reserve police officer with the Old Orchard Beach Police Department.”

“Evans admitted to ICE officers that he attempted to purchase the firearm for his employment as a police officer with the Old Orchard Beach Police Department. His attempt to purchase the firearm triggered an alert to ATF agents, who worked in coordination with ICE to make the arrest. Evans lawfully entered the United States Sept 24, 2023, at the Miami International Airport, in Florida.”

“However, he violated the terms of his lawful admission when he overstayed his visa. Evans was scheduled to depart the US October 1, 2023, but never boarded the flight,” says a Monday Homeland Security press release that leaves out some key details about what happened.

That was left to Old Orchard Beach Police Chief Elise Chard, who said in a press release that Evans had been cleared by DHS prior to being hired. “As part of the hiring process, the Town reviewed multiple forms of identification, including photo identification, and submitted Evans’ I-9 form to the Department of Homeland Security’s E-Verify Program. The Department of Homeland Security then verified that Evans was authorized to work in the US. Evans would not have been permitted to begin work as a reserve officer until and unless Homeland Security verified his status,” said Chard.

Fresh off her still completely opaque meeting with Trump defense lawyer who’s also currently empowered as the second highest ranking law enforcement official in the United States Todd Blanche, Jeffrey Epstein accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell as Politico reports the twisted groomer on Tuesday communicated through her lawyer that she’s only interested in talking to the House Oversight Committee’s investigators that she be granted immunity, to receive the questions in advance of the interview, to delay the deposition until after her appeals, and to relocate the deposition outside the prison where she lives. If not she’ll plead the Fifth and waste everyone’s time.

So yeah, she’s trying to back out. Shocking that she’d do such a thing after a completely private closed-door meeting with the Orange God Emperor’s top criminal defense lawyer, right?

There’s no context for this audio of Tom Emmer speaking at some sort of private meeting as found by clip guy Aaron Rupar. But it’s unmistakably the House Majority Whip’s voice telling donors or whoever that imposing work requirements is the GOP’s not- all-that-roundabout way of cutting back the enrollment expansions from the Biden Administration, saying that this was Trump’s idea to not give Dems something to run on but they needed to find the savings somewhere.

Emmer’s whiny voice makes it difficult to discern the tone, as in whether it’s confident or defensive, but it’s interesting because either way it sounds like someone who’s arguing against his future self after a potential timeline in which Republicans get absolutely mangled in 2026 and 2028, that the voters were wrong to see the work requirements as exactly the way he pitched them privately.

This week’s Economist/YouGov national survey finds a large plurality/near-majority of respondents at 46 percent said yes when asked “Do you think that Donald Trump was involved in crimes allegedly committed by Jeffrey Epstein?” versus just 32 percent who do not and 23 percent unsure.

That just a third of Americans overall are sure their president did not rape teenage sex-trafficking victims just barely loses out on the headline against what his own voters said: Freaking 10 percent of them said yes, another 20 percent aren’t sure, and the remaining 69 percent, apparently rounded downward, are sure that he did not rape teenage sex-trafficking victims supplied by Jeffrey Epstein.

Trump’s job approval among overall respondents is 40 percent, or 8 percent higher than the number who are certain that he did not rape teenage sex-trafficking victims on Epstein’s private island.

The Oklahoma County Sheriff’s Office, based in Oklahoma City, the capital of you already guessed which state, is investigating far right Superintendent Ryan Walters over last week’s fuckup in which he had some sort of footage of naked women that was probably porn but nobody’s really sure running on a TV screen in his office during a meeting with other education officials, NBC reports.

It’s not clear what if any statute Walters is accused of violating by playing whatever the hell it was he played. It doesn’t sound like it’d be illegal so much as a fireable offense. But other top Republicans in the state, even ones that had been considered allies in the past, have been sick of Walters’ clownfuckery for a while now and were just waiting for an excuse to delegitimize him so might as well exploit one he just handed to them on a silver platter during a goddamned official meeting.

“Any suggestion that a device of mine was used to stream inappropriate content on the television set is categorically false. I have no knowledge of what was on the TV screen during the alleged incident, and there is absolutely no truth to any implication of wrongdoing,” the dipshit tweeted.

The Orange God Emperor is en route to an airport where he’ll depart his mother’s home country and possibly say more stupid and incriminating shit to reporters before stepping onto Air Force One.

“Dalton Rice is a city official with very, and I mean very little, if any, experience in emergency management. Don’t let the phony news media distract you from the core of the problems. There was no warning system and they were warned 12 hours before by the National Weather. ‘Complacency rules’…..The area has a long history of flooding. That’s why it’s the Guadalupe River.”

“Rivers by nature handle run-off from storms, some better than others. Sometime others need human help to do a better job. But it’s still in Mother Nature’s hands. Stop trying to pack the blame on someone, that doesn’t resolve anything. Move on and devise a way for lessen the severity of these catastrophes” – Top comment on the Fox News article “Texas local official caught mocking DHS Secretary as ‘Homeland Barbie’ after deadly floods,” posted Monday afternoon.

Now let’s just play along and assume that the commenter is familiar with the region, lives or has lived in the area, had heard of Dalton Rice prior to this month, and so on. That the post at least in that regard is informed of Rice’s role and seems to speak to an awareness that, during that presser with “Barbie,” he had said “the storm that caused the deadly flash flood dumped more rain than what was forecasted” by the National Weather Service, thus pointing to what at that moment was in his mind a failure by the government led by convicted felon President Trump but a function outside of Kristi Noem’s portfolio as the NWS is under Hustlin’ Howard Lutnick’s Commerce Department.

At least 38 of 56 people abducted in March and held hostage since then were executed by their captors in northern Nigeria last weekend after collecting the equivalent of $36,680 or $655 each in ransom for their return, the BBC reports on a lesson certain American entities finding themselves targeted for extortion by an illegitimate president and his criminal regime might want to internalize.

As for what happened in Nigeria some of the details are a little too disturbing to reprint here but at least sixteen of the known survivors were accounted for in hospitals, recovering from the ordeal.

Last night, we stood shoulder to shoulder for the dignified transfer of Police Officer Didarul Islam.

“I have been briefed on the tragic shooting that took place in Manhattan, a place that I know and love. I trust our Law Enforcement Agencies to get to the bottom of why this crazed lunatic committed such a senseless act of violence. My heart is with the families of the four people who were killed, including the NYPD Officer, who made the ultimate sacrifice. God Bless the New York Police Department, and God Bless New York!” posted convicted felon President Trump on Tuesday morning, responding to the death of 36 year-old NYPD Officer Didarul Islam, a Bangladeshi immigrant and father of two who was off-duty when sick asshole Shane Tamura shot him and four other people dead with an AR-15 on Monday during a rampage at a Manhattan building.

You might have noticed that missing from the post was “Officer Islam,” a stark contrast from last year following the murder of Officer Jonathan Diller, whose name appears in two Trump Truth Social posts plus a third “retruthing” MAGA influencer Steve Gruber gloating “NY Gov Kathy Hochul was asked leave the wake of fallen NYPD Officer Jonathan Diller just minutes after arriving on Friday afternoon. Several cops waiting outside the funeral home then clapped as she walked away.”

Trump was welcomed at that wake in the very MAGA Long Island bedroom community, holding a lengthy press conference outside the funeral home. It was a useful campaign stop while Donald was pitching himself as pro-law and order because “The ‘thug’ in question has 21 prior arrests and just recently got out of prison – he NEVER should have been let back out on the streets.”

“While the election is still more than a year away, this August in-district work period is an opportunity to go home and sell your work to your constituents. With the One Big Beautiful Bill signed into law by President Trump just a few weeks ago, this is a critical opportunity to continue to define how this legislation will help every voter and push back on Democrat fearmongering. As you head back to your district, the NRCC has prepared the following guide to help you ensure you maximize your time,” says a memo from the NRCC to members urging them to not use the time off relaxing and going on vacation and shit but trying to help sell a bill that they didn’t actually want to vote for. This is about five months after they told members to stop holding town halls, lol.

The memo’s pretty long but there’s some funny shit in it, like these bullet points all linked to a May 9th Breitbart article about poll-tested pablum continuing to test well in internal NRCC polling, nearly two months before the bill was fully written and passed. Almost like they understood that more recent polling over the bill is not so great and in fact fucking terrible. “Democrats are fearmongering about Republican efforts to strengthen Medicaid, but we can’t let them control the narrative. Voters back Republicans’ commonsense reforms: • 86 percent support removing deceased/ineligible recipients • 72 percent support work requirements • 71 percent believe there is widespread fraud in Medicaid… The playbook is simple: focus on President Trump and House Republicans’ efforts to improve voters’ everyday lives and show the contrast with out of touch Democrats.”

“Junior’s Restaurant and Bakery, the iconic New York institution known for serving the ‘World’s Most Fabulous Cheesecake,’ is going big for National Cheesecake Day with sweet deals for fans everywhere. On Wednesday, July 30, cheesecake lovers can celebrate with major savings across Junior’s restaurants, bakeries, and online store: In-Restaurant: $5.00 off any slice with the purchase of a breakfast, lunch, or dinner entrée (dine-in or take-out),” says a press release from the “iconic” diner on Flatbush Ave in Downtown Brooklyn where the food actually sucks worse than at some of the dumpiest Greek-owned places in Astoria. And yet everyone’s under this collective delusion that allows the place to justify charging $9.25 a slice of a goddamned cheesecake that you may be surprised to learn does not, in fact, cure metastatic cancer, despite the implications.

“National Cheesecake Day is our Super Bowl. We wanted to go big this year, give back to our fans across the New York area and around the country, thank them for 75 amazing years, and make it easy for everyone to enjoy a slice of what we do best,” the press release quotes “Alan Rosen, third-generation owner of Junior’s,” and yeah this is what he and his staff do best: marketing a sub-mediocre diner into mythic status and charge fucking $17.50 for a burger for the privilege of paying $5 less for a slice of cheesecake you could mistake for Sara Lee in a blind taste test.

The above tweet is not directly relevant to the quotation in the headline. It’s not irrelevant either, however. KSAT in San Antonio this week obtained via public records requests a set of text messages between Kerrville, Texas officials from the immediate aftermath of the early July 4th flash flood disaster that killed at least 140 people statewide, 110 of them in the larger Kerr County, many of them trapped at summer camps and campsites in the normally arid region’s maze of gullies and streams. “Just saw you met Homeland Barbi, how is she?!?!?!” one Kerrville staffer texted City Manager Dalton Rice after dog-murdering DHS Secretary Kristi Noem’s July 5th press conference.

“Beahahaha basically homeland Barbie,” Rice responded, indicating that the contempt for the plastic surgery-ravaged former South Dakota governor – more commonly referred to as “ICE Barbie” on left-leaning blogs and news sites – has percolated even among officials in deep red areas of the country.

Rice, who at the presser had at the very least hinted that fault for the disaster lay with the Trump Regime’s depleted National Weather Service, received praise from his counterparts in municipalities across the state. “Dalton, great job at the press conference. Steady, factual, clear. I know we sent crews up very early this morning and have more on the way,” San Antonio City Manager Erik Walsh wrote in an email to Rice on what KSAT says was just before noon July 4th, but that timeline doesn’t totally add up since it was just hours after the flood. Might’ve been an error in the article.
