You can tell over the course of this interview that Oklahoma Senator Makrwayne Mullin is getting increasingly frustrated over having to admit that he’s not so sure he wants to vote to confirm either credibly suspected statutory rapist Matt Gaetz and credibly accused rapist white nationalist Pete Hegseth to lead the Departments of Justice and Defense, respectively, causing him to start complaining that the Senate in 2021 confirmed trans woman Rachel Levine, non-binary Sam Brinton, and gay man Pete Buttgieg like their sexuality was somehow a character flaw and an impediment to their ability to do the job (though Brinton is a jackass who was fired for randomly stealing other people’s luggage off of an airport carousel, that would seem separate and apart from his identity).

“Celebrity chef” Guy Fieri and former Van Halen lead singer Sammy Hagar’s tequila brand Santo Spirits is out nearly $1 million in product after two trucks loaded with 24,240 bottles were hijacked in Laredo, Texas on November 9th, Fox News reports on a massive failure by Gov Greg Abbott and Picasso-faced Attorney General Ken Paxton to protect American businesses from criminal gangs.

A rep for Hagar told Fox News that “it appears this was an organized crime effort where the trucks were illegally double brokered to different carriers who transferred the product to their trucks,” after crossing the border into Texas with “the Santo Blanco and Reposado as well as a specially made Extra Añejo, which was created over the course of 39 months,” is what Fox wrote verbatim, lol.

“For a growing company like Santo, it’s really a shame for something like this to happen in the middle of our strongest year to date and right before the holidays!” said Hagar, who may or may not have told the truckers they can’t drive 55 if they want to make it to Flavortown without getting jacked.

Douchebag Trump lawyer Tim Parlatore admits to the Washington Post that Fox News host and white nationalist Trump Reich Defense Secretary nominee Pete Hegseth was kind of shitfaced and did pay off the woman who accused him of a violent sexual assault in California in 2019 but nothing actually happened and he only paid her off because he was worried Fox News would fire him, libs.

The encounter was “consensual” but the woman was also “the aggressor,” according to Parlatore and holy shit this is where they’re actually at right now. It’s worth asking at this point if Hegseth was like the feint ot something to make fucking Matt Gaetz, Robert F Kennedy Jr, and Tulsi Gabbard look relatively normal and distract attention from their distinct brands of criminality and batshittery.

Drops in pharmaceutical stock prices weighed down Dow and the S&P 500 on Friday, with Amgen down about 4.2 percent, Moderna off by 7.3 percent, Pfizer down 4 percent just to name a few – with the SPDR S&P Biotech ETF dropping more than 5 percent and posting its worst week since 2020 – a direct reaction to President-Elect Trump’s plan to nominate phone sex freak Robert F Kennedy Jr to lead the Department of Health and Human Services, CNBC reports on more winning.

The Fox and Friends weekend couch, who we guess Pete Hegseth is taking a leave from while he prepares to become the United States Secretary of Defense, defended their buddy’s tattoo that reads “Deus Vult” (“God’s will”), a Crusader battle cry asserting that God mandated the violence against the Islamic and even some of the Jewish populations of the medieval Levant which, you will not be shocked to learn, is a modern shibboleth for Neo-Nazi/white nationalist groups.

Muslim community leaders who backed convicted felon President-Elect Trump to punish Vice President Kamala Harris over the Biden Admin’s support for the war in Gaza tell Reuters they’re “deeply disappointed” with his cabinet picks, as if they expected him to nominate other Muslims.

“Trump won because of us and we’re not happy with his secretary of state pick and others,” said Philadelphia investor Rabiul Chowdhury, who chaired the Abandon Harris campaign in Pennsylvania and co-founded Muslims for Trump. “It’s like he’s going on Zionist overdrive,” said Minnesota leader Hassan Abdel Salam, co-founder of the Abandon Harris campaign, which endorsed Green Party candidate Jill Stein. “We were always extremely skeptical … Obviously we’re still waiting to see where the administration will go, but it does look like our community has been played.”

“We are very disappointed,” said Rexhinaldo Nazarko, executive director of the American Muslim Engagement and Empowerment Network, though it’s not clear from the article whether Nazarko himself is/was pro-Trump or is just providing comment on the community. “It seems like this administration has been packed entirely with neocons and extremely pro-Israel, pro-war people, which is a failure on the on the side of President Trump, to the pro-peace and anti-war movement.”

Huh. Almost like anyone thinking rationally could have seen this coming or something.

• My suggestion:  Lauren Boebert to head the National Endowment for the Arts, which she probably thinks involves a bunch of perverted guys named Arthur.  
• Do you get the feeling Trump’s naming nominees not to get the Senate’s approval, but to get the Kremlin’s?
• Alex Jones’s next media appearance really must be as a contestant on “Dancing With the Stars” to prove to us non-believers the effectiveness of his touted supplements.  Better:  “Wipeout.”
• There are a lot of junior-grade Russian intelligence analysts at the Kremlin who developed dossiers on C-level players in MAGA World who are now salivating at the likelihood those intelligence targets will get presidential appointments in January and those analysts’ careers will take off.

Fulton County election workers Shaye Moss and her mother, Ruby Freeman, finally received some surrendered property from the former lawyer who defamed them, Rudy Giuliani, one of Giuliani’s few remaining attorney’s reported to the court on Friday.   The New York Times reports Giuliani turned over his watch collection, a ring, and his vintage Mercedes-Benz that was once owned by legendary actress Lauren Bacall.  Giuliani is also supposed to turn over his Manhattan apartment and most of its contents to pay the $148 million defamation judgment.

The adjudicated rapist’s transition team is reportedly second-guessing Donald Trump’s choice of Fox host Pete Hegseth after reports emerged that he was involved in an alleged domestic violence complaint in 2017, the Washington Post reports.  One in a series of appointments of questionable merit Trump has announced, Hegseth had just divorced his second wife while the woman who would become his third wife gave birth to his child.

Officials never filed charges against Hegseth, but Monterey, California police confirmed they investigated an “alleged sexual assault” involving him that a friend of the victim reported about a week after the incident.  Hegseth’s attorney said police found nothing to base charges on, but the woman allegedly assaulted reportedly signed a non-disclosure agreement.

Convicted felon President-Elect Trump has selected vicious German Shepherd Karoline Leavitt to serve as White House Press Secretary, Semafor’s Shelby Talcott reports on the Reich’s comms arm.

Jesus Dork Speaker of the House Mike Johnson tells CNN he’s “I’m going to strongly request that the Ethics Committee not issue the report“ on Attorney General nominee Matt Gaetz’s behavior off the clock, for which Johnson’s son would get an alert if his dad saw photos of.

“The Trump-Pence administration was unapologetically pro-life for our four years in office. There are hundreds of decisions made at HHS every day that either lead our nation toward a respect for life or away from it, and HHS under our administration always stood for life. The nomination of RFK Jr to serve as Secretary of HHS is an abrupt departure from the pro-life record of our administration and should be deeply concerning to millions of Pro-Life Americans who have supported the Republican Party for decades. For the majority of his career, RFK Jr has defended abortion on demand during all nine months of pregnancy, supports overturning the Dobbs decision and has called for legislation to codify Roe v Wade. If confirmed, RFK, Jr would be the most pro-abortion Republican appointed secretary of HHS in modern history. The pro-life movement has always looked to the Republican party to stand for life, to affirm an unborn child has a fundamental right to life which cannot be infringed. On behalf of tens of millions of pro-life Americans, I respectfully urge Senate Republicans to reject this nomination and give the American people a leader who will respect the sanctity of life as secretary of Health and Human Services,” says former Vice President Mike Pence in a statement.

See, this is why they almost hanged him and why JD Vance took his job. Pence thinks the GOP still has commitment to anything resembling principle or even basic consistency. You’d think that maybe he would’ve figured that out after nearly getting lynched simply for refusing to light the US Constitution on fire, but here we are. Luckily for Pence it goes the other way too and Bobby Jr could, and maybe even will, decide he’s “pro-life.” Wouldn’t be much of a stretch given Roadkill Guy’s own level of “principle” as demonstrated by his journey from Dem primary challenger to MAGA Quisling.

Large-headed Trump spokesman Steven Cheung on Friday told CBS News that the 2017 sexual assault investigation into Fox News host and Defense Secretary nominee Pete Hegseth is a non-deal breaker because Hegseth denies them, saying “President Trump is nominating high-caliber and extremely qualified candidates to serve in his Administration. Mr Hegseth has vigorously denied any and all accusations, and no charges were filed. We look forward to his confirmation as United States Secretary of Defense so he can get started on Day One to Make America Safe and Great Again.”

Cops in Monterey, California on October 12, 2017 took a report from a woman who accused Hegseth of an assault at a hotel in the early morning hours of the 8th at the Hyatt Regency. CBS mentions the words “contusion” and “thigh” as appearing in the report, but no further details were available.

Shocking that Fox News and then President-Elect Trump would want to hire someone like that.

“Congresswoman Nancy Mace sent a letter to the USDA and NIH demanding a briefing after a recent escape of 43 monkeys from the Alpha Genesis facility in Yemassee, SC. The incident, which left several primates unaccounted for seven days after their escape, is only the latest in a long list of violations from this USDA and NIH-funded laboratory. ‘For years, Alpha Genesis has racked up federal contracts and taxpayer dollars while consistently violating animal welfare laws and exposing the public to dangerous escapes,’ said Rep Nancy Mace. ‘NIH and USDA need to step up and ensure South Carolinians don’t bear the risk of this lab’s negligence,'” says Mace’s office in a statement.

“Despite receiving over $110 million in taxpayer funding since 2008 – including $19 million this year alone – Alpha Genesis has a disturbing history of animal welfare violations and public safety risks. Housing over 10,000 primates, including 3,300 on NIH’s controversial Monkey Island, the lab has faced frequent federal citations for unsafe enclosures, poor veterinary care, and preventable animal deaths. Yet oversight remains minimal, with recent inspections confirming multiple violations, including escaped primates and fatal neglect,” the statement continued.

The lab and local officials have caught 35 of the 43 escaped monkeys as of Thursday night.

The investigation into a quadruple fatal crash of a Tesla in Toronto last month is still ongoing, however this week a mailman told the Toronto Star he was forced to smash the window with a metal pole to rescue the sole survivor after the doors failed to open due to power failure.

“You couldn’t open the doors,” Canada Post worker Rick Harper recalled about the October 24 crash on Lake Shore Boulervard. “I would assume the young lady would have tried to open the door from the inside, because she was pretty desperate to get out. I don’t know if that was the battery or what. But she couldn’t get out,” Harper continued, adding that he wasn’t even aware there had been any other occupants as the Model Y’s cabin was completely filled with acrid black smoke.

Calgary Fire Department Captain Randy Schmitz, who serves as the chair of the Alberta Vehicle Extraction Association, says it’s not only Tesla models whose doors can fail if power is lost after an accident as he’s aware of the problem in some GM, Ford, and Mazdas too, all of them equipped with manual overrides that are difficult to find in a high-stress situation, like a fire. “Part of the problem is (salespeople) don’t inform the vehicle owners of this feature so it falls on the vehicle’s owner to seek out the information in their service manual that comes with every vehicle,” said Schmitz.

But let’s hear more about how Tesla’s mastermind is going to tackle the US government’s red tape.

Apparently being the First Lady of the most powerful, most prosperous nation on Earth just isn’t enough for some people.  Cucked former/future First Lady Melania Trump–who will not join her husband at the White House residence–released a series of sixteen “exclusive” digital images of the former nude model, apparently clothed in this edition on her website.  The blockchain set sells for $195.

“This exclusive collection of images showcases First Lady Melania Trump’s dynamic life, featuring her in various settings – from her office and the campaign trail to her home. The photographs, captured by the esteemed Belgian photographer Regine Mahaux, offer a poignant glimpse into her fast-moving life,” the Manhattanite writes.

More than three-quarters of the guns confiscated by police officials in various Caribbean nations from 2018 to 2022 were manufactured in the United States and illegally imported to the nations, precipitating a spike in gang-related violence in places like Haiti and Jamaica, CNN reports.

So while the guns themselves did commit the violence, the increasing presence of the guns in the 25 nations surveyed lead to increasing gun violence.  Of the nearly 5,400 weapons recovered, 88% were handguns.
