Michigan Attorney General Dana Messel on Friday announced charges against four assholes in Macomb County who voted twice in the state’s August 6th primary and three poll workers who let them do it, charges that local Republican DA Pete Lucido had failed to pursue, the AP reports.

Lucido had declared that there was “no malicious or criminal intent” when the four had voted absentee by mail and then showed up to vote in person on primary day. Nessel disagreed and pulled rank. “There are so many different procedures that are involved here. I think if you’re not highly familiar with this, the way that our staff has become, it’s easy to make mistakes,” said Nessel.

“Hey Elon, update here on site of Asheville, NC. We have powered up two large operating bases for choppers to deliver goods into hands. We’ve deployed 300+ starlinks and outpour is it has saved many lives. The big issue is FEMA is actively blocking shipments and seizing goods and services locally and locking them away to state they are their own. It’s very real and scary how much they have taken control to stop people helping. We are blocked now on the shipments of new starlinks coming in until we get an escort from the fire dept. but that may not be enough,” says a text message that Ketamine Brain attributes to a SpaceX engineer on the ground in North Carolina, a screenshot of which convicted felon former President Trump posted to Truth Social on Friday.

“It’s true. They are now about to shut down the Air space to ‘regulate’ the private choppers we are riding in to deliver Starlink and supplies. We are pushing back with trump team as well to help us, but not looking good. We need help to get word out about FEMA, we spoke with Ivanka and handed out starlinks with her yesterday but FEMA then showed up and started blocking us,” the message from “Mike!” continued and holy fucking shit, lol. “We spoke with Ivanka”?!?!? What the hell.

Anyway, on Thursday FEMA put up a “Rumor Response” page with one entry that already overlaps with a lot of this incitement circlejerk. “Rumors about FEMA turning away donations, stopping trucks or vehicles with donations, confiscating and seizing supplies often spread after a disaster. These are all false. FEMA does not take donations and/or food from survivors or voluntary organizations. Donations of food, water, or other goods are handled by voluntary agencies who specialize in storing, sorting, cleaning, and distributing donated items. FEMA does not conduct vehicle stops or handle road closures with armed guards – those are done by local law enforcement.”

Two quotes from Mike Pence replacement JD Vance from NPR’s Steve Fowler:

He and his fat Orange Boss are “focused on the future in this election and in this campaign” and he thinks that “it’s interesting that the American media wants to talk so much about 2020.”

Also that Facebook and Twitter throttling the New York Post story on Hunter Biden’s laptop “probably cost Donald Trump hundreds of thousands or maybe even millions of votes.”

House Oversight Committee Ranking Members Jamie Raskin on Friday offered Supreme Court Justice John Roberts a little taste of what life’s going to be like the next time the Dems have a majority, sending a letter asking why the hell Roberts took over for Samuel Alito for the opinion giving convicted felon former President Trump a blank check to do whatever he wants just days after Sam’s insurrection fetish flags were first reported publicly.

Convicted felon former President Trump is scheduled to appear in Georgia at an October 23rd event held by small-faced minion Charlie Kirk’s Turning Point USA slush fund, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution’s Greg Bluestein reports, pointing out that it’s the same day as the debate that CNN proposed and Vice President Kamala Harris accepted in their Atlanta studio, a face-off that the fat fuck pretty much immediately rejected as “just too late. Voting has already started,” despite having faced Joe Biden in an October 22nd, 2020 debate. Not that this really matters, but even though that’s a day short of four years exactly, it’s actually a longer gap at 13 days until Election Day on November 5th. The 2020 election was held on November 3rd, 12 days after that year’s final debate.

There’s no time information on Bluestein’s screenshot of the TPUSA promo for the Trump public rant, but the address is listed as a convention center in Duluth, Georgia, just 27 miles from CNN’s original headquarters in the Peach State’s capital. It’s pretty obvious from the location and the lack of a fixed time for his on-stage appearance is at the very least a sign that the fat bastard’s campaign are keeping his options open and could face Harris again if maybe he himself doesn’t realize it yet.

Yes it was a white guy and not a Haitain, according to lefty journo Steve Monacelli, who obtained the arrest report on Thursday. Yes, he’s a registered Republican according to voter registration info. No, none of this is surprising because these MAGA motherfuckers don’t care and never will.

“Lyin’ Kamal Harris, who refuses to do interviews or press conferences because she has no idea how to answer the questions, and is now losing in the polls, continues to make a thing called Project 2025 the central theme of her campaign, advertising and all. Lyin’ Kamala has been informed, legally, that I have, and had, nothing to do with it, NEVER READ IT, NEVER SAW IT, but her ads continue, full blast. When you see them talking about Project 2025, remember, Kamala is lying, just like she lied about working at McDonalds (she didn’t!), or added 818,000 new jobs that didn’t exist (a fraud!), and sooo many other lies. Just like San Francisco and California, itself, she would, if given the chance, COMPLETELY DESTROY OUR COUNTRY!” posted convicted felon former President Trump on Friday to indulge in some more victimhood and whining about Stolen McValor, emphasis added on the implied claim that the Harris campaign is ignoring a cease and desist.

Actually that headline’s a complete lie because you already guessed if you read the article from last week titled “Oklahoma schools chief asks for $3.5 million for guns and Bibles.” In fact at least one commenter explicitly predicted this. We alluded to a rigged bidding process to supply the Bibles to classrooms but thought it was may just a little too on the nose to say what you expected.

What is maybe mildly surprising in the Oklahoman’s reporting is that, per state Superintendent of Education Ryan Walters’ specs – that the Bible must be the King James Version, must contain the Old and New Testaments, must include copies of the Pledge of Allegiance, Declaration of Independence, and the US Constitution, and must be bound in leather or leather-like material – is that it’s not just the $60 Lee Greenwood God Bless The USA Bible that fits this. No, they threw us a curveball and it turns out there’s another Trump-endorsed Bible called the “We The People Bible.”

It sells for $90. Didn’t see that one coming. So we guess the bid process is competitive, though the obvious edge goes to Greenwood’s just by virtue of price. Then again we don’t know whether the other one is paying Trump royalties on the sales. If it is then it actually is a “better value.”

Look we’re not accusing this Heritage Foundation/Project 2025 guy of being a pedophile, we’re just saying if it’s okay for him to say it just doesn’t feel like the economy isn’t doing well despite like a shit ton of evidence to the contrary then it should be okay for us to say it feels like he’s a pedophile. Just look at him. He even talks like a guy trying to explain himself to Chris Hansen.

In remarks caught on tape and obtained by the Guardian, convicted felon former President Trump told donors gathered at a mansion in Aspen, Colorado in August – having arrived there on dead sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein’s former plane – told the plutocrats a more coarse version of more or less the same shit he screams at his fans at rallies. The one funny part that sticks out however is Trump saying “I’m telling you we have a radical left person that’s going be president – if she wins it’s going to be a disaster – she wants to be president very badly. Thank God she’s supposed to be horrible at debating, although she’s nasty, and she’s supposed to be really bad at interviews,” a month before Vice President Kamala Harris fucking destroyed him in front of a very large national audience.

The fat bastard also rambled some shit about migrants from the Congo, saying “We said, ‘Where do you come from?’ They said, ‘Prison’. ‘What did you do?’ ‘None of your fucking business what we did.’ You know why? Because they’re murderers,” enacting some kind of imaginary interview between these Black migrants and we guess the Biden Administration. “These are the toughest people. These people are coming in from Africa, from the Middle East. They’re coming in from all parts of Asia, the bad parts, the parts where they’re rough, and the only thing good is they make our criminals look extremely nice. They make our Hell’s Angels look like the nicest people on earth.”

“Total nonfarm payroll employment increased by 254,000 in September, and the unemployment rate changed little at 4.1 percent, the US Bureau of Labor Statistics reported today. Employment continued to trend up in food services and drinking places, health care, government, social assistance, and construction,” says the US Bureau of Labor Statistics in the September jobs report.

The surge crushed expectations of 150,000 new jobs/4.2 percent rate, per CNBC. Hourly earnings, up 0.4 percent on the month, and 4 percent year over year, beat 0.3/3.8 percent expected.

Legendary international diplomat Jared Kushner has been helping pursue US interests in Saudi Arabia, completely free of charge and on his own time, sources tell Reuters about the patriotic entrepreneur’s warm relationship with Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, known as a kind and benevolent leader who is also not afraid to cut things off if he feels like someone’s causing trouble.

Ugghhhh… Complain about Merrick Garland all you want. You’re not wrong to feel like he dropped the ball even if his level of responsibility in convicted felon former President Trump still being a free man is up for debate. However keep in mind that Bob Menendez is now a former senator, while Eric Adams and Congressman Henry Cuellar are both in deep shit. For all the questionable decisions made and/or inertia shown in taking on Trump and his minions for their crimes against democracy, the Garland DOJ has been pretty freaking aggressive in high profile foreign corruption cases.

That maybe they’re easier to prosecute doesn’t negate that it sure looks like Jared is making it easier. It’s probably not wishcasting to say that if his fat shit father-in-law loses he’s going to come under investigation… if he isn’t already. A leak about a grand jury would be nice right about now.

A new survey by a the Tarrance Group, a firm the Nevada Independent calls “an experienced GOP opinion-taker in the Silver State” finds Vice President Kamala Harris leading convicted felon former President Trump 47 to 44 percent among likely voters in the vast desert kingdom of gambling and prostitution while Dem Senator Jacky Rosen leads MAGA challenger Sam Brown 48 to 41 percent.

Are we just picking up a no-name pollster because they’re saying what we want to hear? Sure, we’ll take that hit but add that there hasn’t been a whole lot of numbers coming out of the state – the freaking New York Times skipped it last month for some goddamned reason – and that the Indy’s Jon Ralston – a guy who knows his shit when it comes to polls and voting – was hyping it.

Thursday night’s tweet from Marjorie Taylor Greene claiming “Yes they can control the weather. It’s ridiculous for anyone to lie and say it can’t be done” is a little much – even for old Sporkfoot – to be saying out loud in public. Hell the Jewish Space Lasers thing is much more within the realm of technological possibility. While it was just batshit it may very well be speaking to a legitimate fear and apprehension within the MAGA establishment over the electoral impact of Hurricane Helene.

Seems easy enough to draw a straight line between the two tweets, with the weather control being a classic case of what Emory University doctoral researcher Shauna Bowes last year wrote was a coping mechanism meant to “make sense of distress and impairment” and that “when people experience threat and anxiety, they are likely to perceive that they possess little to no control over their environments. In line with this possibility, conspiratorial ideation tends to manifest small-to-medium negative correlations with perceptions of control. Moreover, experimentally increasing a perceived loss of control gives rise to greater conspiratorial ideation.” Maybe Marge should submit to an exam. Emory’s not that far of a drive from her district and she’s got nothing better to do.

A new Marist/NPR/PBS News national survey finds Vice President Kamala Harris leading convicted felon former President Trump 50 to 48 percent among likely voters with “other” in third at 1 percent.

Harris received a net 0 percent favorability rating at 47 favorable to unfavorable while the Orange Tyrant was 6 percent underwater at 45 favorable/51 unfavorable. The survey also found a net 34 percent gender gap as Trump leads 57 to 41 percent among men while Harris leads 58 to 40 among women. Harris leads Trump among planned mail-in ballot voters 71 to 28 percent.

You will not be surprised to learn that Trump Media and Technology Group CEO Devin Nunes is an incompetent dumbass and has fired the chief operating officer, the chief product officer, and at least two others in retaliation for their complaints over Nunes’s mismanagement, per ProPublica.

“This story is the fifth consecutive piece in an increasingly absurd campaign by ProPublica, likely at the behest of political interest groups, to damage TMTG based on false and defamatory allegations and vague innuendo. As usual, your latest inquiry utterly fabricates implications of improper and even illegal conduct that have no basis in reality, presented without any reliable sourcing or substantiating details,” said the company in a statement. They do kind of have ProPublica there on the “substantiating details” part, as the story contains no real specifics or quotes.

They did not however lie about anything. These assholes definitely really were fired.

In their quest to learn more about how the brain functions, researchers wanted to map the millions of synapses found in the brains of simple creatures.  When no Trump voter would volunteer, scientists turned to a fruit fly, laying out more than 54.5 million connections.  The graphic shown above came from a pair of researchers who are part of a project known as FlyWire, which intends to map out and name AI-segmented neurons through crowdsourcing.  And no, a story about the complex working of a fruit fly’s brain following a post about Marge saying “they control the weather” was not an accident.

Yes they can control the weather.

It’s ridiculous for anyone to lie and say it can’t be done.

Batship-crazy Georgia Congresscritter Marjorie Taylor Greene is ramping up the conspiracy theories for the election season, spreading lies like the Illuminati spread snow seedlings in winter.

A former long-time Cabinet minister in the Singaporean government was sentenced to 12 months in prison for accepting about $300,000 in gifts and obstructing an investigation into his windfall, NBC News reports.  In case you’re keeping track, that’s about one-sixteenth the value of gifts Clarence Thomas has allegedly received in the last decade alone.

S. Iswaran, who had served in Cabinet-level positions covering trade, communications and transportation over a 13-year career, pleaded guilty last week to four counts of improperly receiving gifts and one of obstructing justice.

According to court schedules, property tycoon Ong Beng Seng, Singapore’s Harlon Crow, will be arraigned on Friday for giving Iswaran tickets to English Premier League soccer matches, the Singapore Formula 1 Grand Prix, London musicals and a ride on a private jet.
