At least one passenger did, incredibly, survive Thursday’s crash of Air India Flight 171, and without life-threatening injuries, the Hindustan Times reports. British citizen Vishwash Kumar Ramesh, 40, lucid enough to speak from his hospital bed after suffering “impact injuries” to his chest, eyes, and feet, says he heard a loud noise before the plane suddenly dropped immediately after takeoff.

“When I got up, there were bodies all around me. I was scared. I stood up and ran. There were pieces of the plane all around me. Someone grabbed hold of me and put me in an ambulance and brought me to the hospital,” Ramesh told the Times. Sadly Ramesh likely lost his brother, 45 year-old Ajay, with whom Vishwash was returning home to the UK after visiting family in India, as Ajay was seated in another row. The Times’s article says Vishwash was in seat 11A, which would be the window seat in economy class on the left wing in a typical configuration. Pretty freaking random.

Well you already guessed what South Carolina state Representative RJ May, vice chair of the state House’s Freedom Caucasians was arrested for. Or were pretty close if you guessed child molestation/statutory rape. It was actually child porn, per the South Carolina Public Radio, who report that federal prosecutors hit May with 10 counts of distributing sexual abuse material involving children. May’s screen name in the dark web child porn forums was “joebidennnn69.”

The sick son of a bitch knew it was coming too, per SCPR, whose report states that May’s home was raided by Homeland Security in August 2024 – which no media or voters caught wind of – and still stood for reelection three months later. “With a looming indictment, May continued to show up for the South Carolina legislative session that began Jan 14 and officially ended May 8. Unlike his early years in the Statehouse, however, May stayed mostly at his desk,” SCPR writes of the Republican’s fleeting time remaining in office was spent while he knew the hammer was about to drop.

“The South Carolina Freedom Caucus stands firmly for the rule of law and the protection of children. Representative RJ May has been expelled from our caucus. He has not been involved in the operations of the caucus since August of 2024. We call for his immediate resignation from the House. Although formal charges have not been made public yet, all indications are that these indictments will be for child sex abuse materials. These crimes are heinous and we expect that they will be fully investigated. We pray justice is served,” the Freedom Caucasians announced in a statement Wednesday night, pretending they barely knew the guy in typical MAGA fashion.

The jury in fat rapey former Hollywood mogul Harvey Weinstein’s second Manhattan trial couldn’t come together on the third and final charge on Thursday – which was rape – leading the judge to declare a mistrial, WNBC reports, leaving the asshole still guilty on one count of first-degree criminal sexual act in regard to victim Miriam Haley, not guilty of criminal sex act in connection to Koja Sokola’s allegations, and deadlocked on the third-degree rape of accuser Jennifer Mann.

A new Associated Press-NORC national survey finds convicted felon President Trump’s job approval rating at 39 percent to 60 percent disapprove, with his rating on the economy even slightly lower at 38 percent approve to 60 percent disapprove. The fat bastard’s best rating on any issue is immigration but even that’s under water at 46 to 53 percent approve/disapprove.

Convicted felon President Trump will on Thursday sign some bill fighting efforts to fight climate change and then probably say a lot of dumb shit to reporters for an hour or so.

“This letter responds to your request for an analysis of the distributional effects of HR 1, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, and updates the preliminary analysis the Congressional Budget Office provided in the letter dated May 20, 2025. CBO and the staff of the Joint Committee on Taxation (JCT) recently estimated the budgetary and distributional effects of HR 1 as passed on May 22, 2025.”

“On the basis of those estimates, CBO allocated the effects on revenues and spending to households. The agency also allocated to households the effects of states’ estimated responses to changes to health programs—primarily Medicaid—and the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). CBO estimates that if the legislation was enacted, US households, on average, would see an increase in the resources available to them over the 2026- 2034 period. The changes would not be evenly distributed among households. The agency estimates that in general, resources would decrease for households toward the bottom of the income distribution, whereas resources would increase for households in the middle and top of the income distribution. This analysis includes most, but not all, provisions of HR 1. The distributional analysis of changes to taxes and tax-related outlays is based on analysis done by JCT. Therefore, the analysis in this letter excludes any tax provisions not allocated in JCT’s distributional analysis of HR 1,” says the Congressional Budget Office in a letter to House Minority Letter Hakeem Jeffries and Ranking Budget Dem Brendan Boyle.

Apologies for overdoing the Trump Truth Social bullshit this morning, but the fat bastard just posted this: “Our great Farmers and people in the Hotel and Leisure business have been stating that our very aggressive policy on immigration is taking very good, long time workers away from them, with those jobs being almost impossible to replace. In many cases the Criminals allowed into our Country by the VERY Stupid Biden Open Borders Policy are applying for those jobs. This is not good. We must protect our Farmers, but get the CRIMINALS OUT OF THE USA. Changes are coming!”

Disregard the fucking idiot’s nonsensical failure to thread the needle that it’s somehow Biden’s fault that MAGA-voting small-and-mid-size business owners are freaking out as their employees are getting tossed in the ICE gulags. It’s the last bit that “Changes are coming” that seems to indicate that he’s starting to feel that heat and is backing down from his campaign promise to deport every single undocumented immigrant. Just last week Krazy Karoline told reporters “if you are an individual, a foreign national, who illegally enters the United States of America, you are, by definition, a criminal. And so, therefore… you are subject deportation.” Hard to read that as anything other than zero-tolerance, which would mean that the fat fuck is at the very least pretending to tilt toward amnesty for “family-oriented” (or economic revenue-positive) undocumented immigrants.

Convicted felon President Trump’s political team have called another meeting with the House Republican Texas delegation on Thursday to sell them on re-gerrymandering the state’s congressional map again, the Texas Tribune reports. The first meeting on Monday left the Lone Star State Republicans lukewarm at best toward a new redrawing of their district’s borders, as fucking idiot Lubbock-area MAGA Congressman Jodey Arrington told the Tribune “We just recently worked on the new maps… there’d have to be a significant benefit to our state.” Of course when Arrington says “state” he really means “the Republican majority in Congress” and when he says “our” he really mostly means “my,” as in “Don’t fuck with my district and accidentally add a bunch of Dem voters.”

Besides that they’re holding another meeting and the quote from Arrington, the Tribune doesn’t add much to the previous reporting by the Times on the issue. It’s still newsworthy that Trump’s political team is cornering them again trying to get them on board with an effort that’s probably not a Hail Mary so much as a field goal attempt from 55 yards to rig 2026 ever so marginally, another sure signal of the Orange God Emperor’s fixation on the midterms 17 months out. He REALLY does not want to have to deal with committee investigations and another impeachment or two.

What seemed fairly obvious from footage of the fiery crash of Air India Flight 171 on Thursday has now been confirmed by officials in the city of Ahmadebad, per CBS News: None of the 230 passengers or 12 crew on board survived and, the BBC reports at least five students at a medical college’s housing unit directly hit by the plane were killed in the and 50 more were injured.

TACO-ing out after really short Kentucky Senator Rand Paul’s response to the disinvitation to this evening’s annual White House picnic, convicted felon President Trump on Thursday bitchily reversed course yet again, posting “Of course Senator Rand Paul and his beautiful wife and family are invited to the BIG White House Party tonight. He’s the toughest vote in the history of the US Senate, but why wouldn’t he be? Besides, it gives me more time to get his Vote on the Great, Big, Beautiful Bill, one of the greatest and most important pieces of legislation ever put before our Senators and Congressmen/women. It will help to, MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN! I look forward to seeing Rand.”

“The Party will be Great!” the fat bastard added after his ridiculous spin of the reversal.

House Oversight Chairbilly James Comer seems a little extra desperate to regain the relatively high level of clout and attention he had commanded two years ago, now going into “replacement theory” as the motive for the “Deep State bureaucrats” who seized control of the fabled “autopen” to allow more immigrants into the United States who would become Dem voters. Kind of new from Comer, to be honest. Can’t ever remember him openly going all Marjorie Taylor Greene and Andy Biggs like this, even though being a white Southern boy from Kentucky with a thick drawl you have to presume he’s more than just a little bit racist. Whatever he believes he had previously kept to himself.

Drug-addicted billionaire Elon Musk’s company SpaceX has no fewer than three launches set for Friday the 13th of June, the traditionally unlucky day and date that may or may not end like the last three test launches of the Starship model, per NexSpaceflight. Likely working in their favor are that these launches – one each in California, Florida, and Texas – are routine Falcon 9 satellite payloads.

“Los Angeles was safe and sound for the last two nights. Our great National Guard, with a little help from the Marines, put the LA Police in a position to effectively do their job. They all worked well together, but without the Military, Los Angeles would be a crime scene like we haven’t seen in years, Governor Gaven NewScum had totally lost control of the situation. He should be saying THANK YOU for saving his ass, instead of trying to justify his mistakes and incompetence!!!” posted convicted felon President Trump on Thursday. He obviously didn’t like Newsom’s Tuesday night video address.

Iran’s armed forces on Thursday began conducting drills to prepare for war with the US, Israel, and/or neighboring Gulf states after a “friendly” regional country alerted Tehran over a potential military strike on its nuclear facilities, Al Arabiya reports on more Middle Eastern madness.

An Air India Boeing 787 Dreamliner bound for London’s Gatwick Airport with 242 passengers and crew on board crashed immediately after takeoff from the Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport in Ahmedabad on Wednesday afternoon local time, the Times of India reports.

Video of the plane – the tank of which would’ve been carrying at least 25,000 gallons of fuel for the roughly eight hour flight – dropping into the city’s Meghani district shows a fireball immediately bursting up from behind trees and homes, making it extremely unlikely for anyone on board to have survived. Really the only question right now is whether anyone on the ground was also killed by the falling jetliner. Hopefully it crashed into an empty field or abandoned industrial site or something.

“President Trump on Wednesday hailed the result of the latest trade talks with China as a great victory, but the best we can say is that it’s a truce that tilts in China’s direction. Details are few, but the countries appear to be resetting their trade relationship to where it was a few months ago before a tit-for-tat escalation. Mr Trump had agreed to reduce tariffs on China to 30 percent (55 percent including those he imposed during his first term) from 145 percent while China dropped its tariffs on US goods to 10 percent from 125 percent,” writes the sometimes MAGA Wall Street Journal op-ed board in a Wednesday piece. Fatass is gonna be pissed if he hears about this one.

Ughhhhhh, it’s even got “🇺🇸 An official website of the United States government” at the top of the single pager. It’s just an “I’m interested form.” If any Canadian, Australian, British, or Kiwi readers want to turn on a VPN, fill in a fake name, and let us know what happens that’d be appreciated.

“I will end the endless wars. They never stop. Again, we had no wars. We had no new wars under your favorite president, President Trump. We had no new – we had no new wars. They thought I was going to start a war. Let me tell you something. I’m going to stop World War III because we’re closer to World War III than we’ve ever been since the end of World War II. I will seal the border and stop the invasion of millions of people pouring into our country illegally. We will totally defeat and we will do this quickly. We will defeat inflation and together, we will bring back the American dream for citizens of every race, religion, color, and creed,” said convicted felon President Trump at a July 27, 2024 MAGA rally in Nashville, just one of many instances he sold himself as the peace president.

On Wednesday every US embassy considered within range of Iranian missiles was evacuated in anticipation of Israeli airstrikes on Iranian nuclear facilities, the Washington Post reports.
