Leesville, Louisiana child rapist Thomas Allen McCartney, 37, who was already a sex offended before he pleaded guilty Tuesday to the 2023 attempted first-degree rape of a child under 13, also agreed to be both chemically and physically castrated on top of 40 years in prison, Fox 8 reports.

When McCartney was arrested in 2023, prosecutors said he had been caught sexually abusing a 7 year-old girl. He was already a Tier 3 sex offender in Louisiana after a 2011 attempted aggravated rape conviction. That was after he was arrested on one count of felony carnal knowledge of a juvenile in 2006 and on two counts of aggravated rape of a 12 year-old in 2010. It’s not clear why he wasn’t castrated after the second one, or maybe it is because McCartney is white.

Classes were canceled in every public school in Michigan City, Indiana on Tuesday after some asshole or assholes stole the catalytic converter out of every single one of the district’s school buses overnight, leaving the bright yellow behemoths unable to start, WNDU reports.

“We know this sudden change is disruptive, and we appreciate your patience and support as we work through this unexpected situation,” the district wrote on Facebook as the fifth day of the school year was canceled. Seems a little too early to have been some kid trying to avoid a math test.

Famously outspoken sports commentator Stephen A Smith has launched a new company, Straight Shooter Media, Variety reports but Mediaite will in a few minutes pick up given its importance.

“We are looking at this shifting landscape,” Smith’s partner and Entertainment Tonight co-host Kevin Frazier, told Variety in a joint interview with Smith. “We are going to raise a few eyebrows.”

“People are going to say, ‘They are not messing around,'” Fraizer continued in quotes that will be lifted verbatim for Mediaite’s coverage of the launch, which will probably go live on the site any minute as to capitalize on audience interest in unchallenged assertions of eyebrow-raising and non-messing-around from the pair of straight shooters. Mediaite will simply tell you like it is.

Warning that there’s a “version of a populist, anti-establishment, MAGA-like makeover” in the Democratic Party, Axios wants you to “Be Smart” and stay tuned for this movement to completely transform the party into something completely unrecognizable from the current mainstream media-focused and Christ that article was so lame.

Since people who are not aware that there’s a Category 3 hurricane currently churning out in the Atlantic might also observe 15 ft high swells crashing into beaches and think “Well that looks a little rougher than usual but whatever, it’s hot” officials in the southern New Jersey city of Wildwood on Monday declared a total swimming ban in effect through the rest of the week, WNBC reports.

“Through the remainder of this week, the Wildwood Beach Patrol advises that beachgoers do not enter the water for the safety of themselves and first responders,” said Wildwood Beach Patrol Captain Ed Schneider. It’s not clear whether Schneider is more of a Baywatch or Pacific Blue guy when it comes to classic basic cable beach procedurals – guess that really depends on whether he’s a lifeguard or a boardwalk bike patrol officer – but either way he’s obviously beyond sick and tired of these dumbass inlanders thinking they don’t need to respect the ocean on a good day.

After telling the “journalists” on the couch Tuesday morning that Ukraine should have never started the war with Russia and ruling out NATO membership for Kyiv, convicted felon President Trump told the three jackasses he wants “to try and get to heaven if possible. I hear I’m not doing well. I hear I’m really at the bottom of the totem pole” in terms of judgment in front of God.

Later the hosts ended the call with the president when he tried to bring up the sexual relationship or engagement or whatever between Ainsley Earhardt and primetime propagandist Sean Hannity.

A new survey of Texas GOP primary voters by Texas Southern University’s Barbara Jordan Public Policy Research and Survey Center finds Picasso-faced Attorney General Ken Paxton leading “RINO” incumbent Senator John Cornhole Cornyn 44 to 39 percent in a head-to-head in the 2026 primary and 35 to 30 percent with Congressman Wesley Hunt at 22 percent in a hypothetical three-way, an improvement for Cornyn over the May finding from TSU of Paxton leading 43 to 34 percent.

So the race is tightening but Emerson was still kind of full of shit with their Cornyn 30 – Pax 29 poll.

Venezuelan dictator Nicolas Maduro on Monday activated 4.5 million militia members that may or may not actually exist in response to convicted felon President Trump’s regime doubling the bounty on his head to $50 million as well as the US Navy’s deployment to Latin America, CBS News reports.

Elise Stefanik got booed so loud in her district you couldn’t even hear her speak.

Harvard astrophysicist Avi Loeb – a guy who knows his shit and is a leading voice when it comes to more conventional astronomical science but also gets angry glares from the rest of his field with his not-so-conventional theories regarding the potential presence of extraterrestrial intelligences in our solar system – is rocking the spaceboat again by asserting that 3I/Atlas, an extrasolar comet currently making its way toward the sun at high speeds, is emitting its own light, Futurism reports.

The unusual observation, captured by NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope, shows the object sporting a bright coma but conspicuously lacking the typical long tail that should accompany it. Loeb suggests this extraordinary light pattern could be an indication that 3I/Atlas’s nucleus is generating its own illumination – either through radioactive decay from some heretofore unobserved type of supernova debris, which he considers unlikely, or well you already figured out he’s going with this.

There’s no question that 3I/Atlas is truly sui generis as it’s only the third confirmed extrasolar object to have entered our system. The two before it, Oumuamua – which Loeb also argued might’ve been artificial – showed no cometary activity whatsoever while Borisov behaved like an ordinary, locally formed comet. This new one is acting like just half a comet. And kind of the wrong half.

Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey on Monday for some reason decided to leave his powerful elected position from which he launched some really simpy MAGA lawsuits and took a possibly completely made-up job as co-Deputy Director of the FBI, a position he’ll share with former podcaster Dan Bongino, Fox News reports on what’d be a self-demotion even if/when Bongino quits.

Bailey’s two predecessors in a row are now the Gateway State’s senior and junior United States Senators and instead of running for governor or waiting for Pam Bondi to quit this needy cumsock instead will take a hired position to work under K$H. God these people are freaking pathetic.

Oh no, we can’t have a politician constantly tweeting ridiculous shit to get a rise out of the opposition party here in America. That’s unbecoming of a respectable and functioning democracy.

A selection of stories from the homepage of The Atlantic on Monday: “The Rise of ‘Cute Debt’,” which is like a trendy new term for buy-now-pay-later services marketed to women. “Why Is Everything Spicy Now?” a really interesting question mark piece that examines the spiciness of everyday life in 2020s America. “The Pull – And the Risks – Of Intensive Parenting” but the URL says “Lighthouse Parents.” Must’ve edited the headline because it’d be too much trendphrasing next to “Cute debt.” Can’t phraseload your monodemo or they might quiet quit. “These Books Won’t Make You a Better Person” which warns that “A new generation of disabled writers isn’t interested in inspiring readers.” This books ain’t your mama’s Chicken Soup for the Soul garbage! No inspiration there! “AI Is a Mass-Delusion Event” and now THAT’s a headline ladies and gents. So freaking provocative. Plus the art used to illustrate is like really abstract and different from what regular audiences are used to. “The Mainstreaming of Zohran Mamdani.” Oh jeez. Now he’s less authentic.

“I called President Putin, and began the arrangements for a meeting, at a location to be determined, between President Putin and President Zelenskyy. After that meeting takes place, we will have a Trilat, which would be the two Presidents, plus myself. Again, this was a very good, early step for a War that has been going on for almost four years” posted convicted felon President Trump on Monday, sounding a little Adderall-y because the actual post was considerably longer.

Prosecutors in Oslo on Monday announced the expected indictment of Marius Borg Høiby, the Prince Joffrey-like stepson of the heir to the Norwegian throne Crown Prince Haakon, 32 counts include rape, abuse in a close relationship against one former partner, acts of violence against another, making death threats, and, lastly, traffic violations, the Associated Press reports.

Høiby, 28, was arrested three times last year, the last being on suspicion of rape. Unlike British Prince Andrew he’s not and never will be in the line of succession, so at least Norway can say that.

Following the deposition with former Attorney General Bill Barr, House Oversight Chairbilly James Comer on Monday told reporters that Barr told him convicted felon President Trump was not implicated at all in the crimes committed by his best bud Jeffrey Epstein, Huffington Post reports.

“What Attorney General Barr testified in there was that he never had conversations with President Trump pertaining to a client list. He didn’t know anything about a client list,” said Comer, evidently too dumb and/or complicit to realize that maybe, just maybe, Barr might not be entirely on the level, especially given the evidence that he covered up a shit ton of Trump’s other crimes.

you sound woke
