Monday could be a little awkward for a Colorado insurance professional who was left behind to die by his coworkers during a team-building hike on Mount Shavano in Chafee County, NPR reports.

The man became disoriented and lost during the hike and the coworkers tried to guide him back to the path as a storm rolled in but eventually they just gave up on the ordeal and went home. “Might cause some awkward encounters at the office in the coming days and weeks,” said an official with Chafee Search and Rescue, who were able to locate the 50-something man and bring him to safety.

A new Quinnipiac University national survey finds Vice President Kamala Harris leading convicted felon former President Trump 49 to 47 percent among likely voters in the full field with Libertarian Chase Oliver and Russian assets Jill Stein and Cornel West included on the question.

Harris drew 0 percent net favorability at 47 to 47, Trump is 6 percent underwater at 46 favorable to 52 unfavorable, Joe Biden negative 13 percent unfavorable at 42/55 favor/unfavor, Tim Walz plus 8 favorable at 40 to 32, Jaydee Vance 9 percent in the red at 34/43 favorable to unfavorable.

The North Carolina Board of Elections on Thursday ruled it’s too late to reprint ballots and thus roadkill guy Robert F Kennedy Jr is stuck on it, WBTV reports.

Jesus Dork House Speaker Mike Johnson and several MAGA Congressmen were involved with efforts to pressure the US Army to allow convicted felon former President Trump to film a campaign event at Arlington National Cemetery on Monday, one of the family members tells the Daily Caller.

Being the right wing site that they are, the Caller’s article works hard to emphasize that it was the families who requested that Trump be able to attend – and not the other way around. What still isn’t clear about all this however – besides the fact that Trump was not at Arlington National Cemetery on August 26 in 2022 or 2023 – is whether this is like an established annual memorial ceremony for the 13 fallen US service members killed in the bombing, or if it’s now a “tradition” this year because of you-know-what in November. It’s going to look considerably worse than it already does with one of them shoving an employee to the ground if it’s the former and this was election year-only.

“We, WE extended the invitation to President Trump. We are the ones that asked him to come.” Darin Hoover, father of Staff Sgt Taylor Hoover, told the Daily Caller in what they describe as an “emotional” phone call, adding “We are the ones that asked him to assist in laying a wreath for our son, and for the shooting for, Sgt Canals and for Cole. We’re the ones that asked that. President Trump didn’t come to us. His team didn’t come to us and say, hey, this would be good for business. Business? No. President Trump stood by us from day one. He has been compassionate. He has been loving. He’s been understanding. He’s taking the mantle of our outrage a little bit. Because to be quite honest with you, being very frank, we haven’t heard diddly squat from the current administration in three years.” There’s a certain familiar ring to the words this man is using.

And the denials seem AWFULLY specific, just like the one Trump posted late on Tuesday.

“InCapta, Inc (OTC Pink: INCTD) and FrankSpeech Inc are thrilled to announce a groundbreaking business combination that marks a major milestone in their shared mission to innovate and champion free speech under the symbol INCTD on the OTC markets – the growth of a platform that already boasts millions of engaged viewers and advertisers. FrankSpeech Network, Inc (formerly InCapta) intends to uplist to a higher market tier, which will provide increased access to capital, liquidity, and expanded markets. As a result of the reverse stock split, the Company’s stock symbol will change to ‘INCTD’ for 20 business days. At the conclusion of 20 business days, the ticker symbol will be changed to ‘FSBN,'” says Mike Lindell’s FrankSpeech in a press release.

“Over the past three years, FrankSpeech, founded by Mike Lindell, has emerged as a leading alternative for free expression. The platform has rapidly grown to attract 7.2 million monthly viewers and 150 million annual impressions. FrankSocial, its subsidiary social media network, supports over 70,000 accounts.

“The reverse acquisition transaction with InCapta, a company renowned for over 46 years of excellence in business and development, will propel FrankSpeech to new heights. The new FSBN leadership team, recognized for their achievements in technology, media, and startups – including multiple nominations for the EY Entrepreneur of the Year – brings invaluable expertise. This experience will be instrumental in integrating advanced technologies, such as AI, to enhance user experiences and operational efficiencies. Future plans include expanding creator content and introducing a subscription model to further engage and add value for audiences.”

Fat Hitler’s vicious German Shepherd found out on Thursday there were limitations to the utility of not answering the fucking question and spewing shit about a gang of evil Venezuelans taking over a hotel in rural Colorado somehow being more concerning than the once and potential future United States President propagating QAnon bullshit and a meme saying his opponent owed her career in public service to “blowjobs.” Would bet she went in thinking she would own John Berman’s ass.

In related news, the Orange Fuhrer himself weighed in on the same matters, writing something along the lines of an implicit threat to CNN anchor Dana Bash in a post saying she “has a chance at greatness today. If she gave a fair but tough interview of Comrade Kamala Harris, she will expose her as being totally inept and ill suited for the job of President, much as I exposed Crooked Joe Biden during our now famous Debate. How cool would that be for Dana and CNN??? Also, the interview should not have Tampon Tim present to help with the inevitable Kamala stumbles, and under no circumstances should the transcript be allowed to be changed in any way, shape, or form.”

“Dana and Jake were fair, but firm, in my CNN Debate with Crooked Joe. This is a chance for Dana Bash to reach REAL stardom, while at the same time doing a great service to our now failing Country. Good luck, Dana, do the right thing!!!” the Supreme Orange Overlord continued in the post.

Officials at the Lake Meredith National Recreation on Sunday posted on Facebook they had acquired a South American freshwater fish called a pacu – a vegetarian relative of the piranhas said to have human-like teeth – an 8.8 lbs specimen caught in the lake earlier in the day.

The post said it was clear to them that the Pacu had been a pet that was dumped after growing too large for its owner’s fishbowl… but they didn’t say what made them so sure about that. How the hell do they know the lake isn’t infested with invasive pacu preying on native plants?

Convicted felon former President Trump’s top lampreys have come to the conclusion that, according to the Guardian’s Trump beat guy Hugo Lowell, they need “to pray that the former US president ​has a good night at the presidential debate next month,” and that all hopes of regaining momentum hinge on it, “a stunning approach that shows the serious predicament for Trump and his campaign as he struggles to land effective attacks against the vice-president just months before the election.”

Why? “What has happened internally in the Trump campaign in recent weeks is the realization that nothing they do in the period up to the debate is likely to cut through in a significant way that blunts Harris’s gains that have her level in key swing state polls,” Lowell writes, citing sources. “​And because they don’t think the messaging will cut through, senior advisers are left hoping that Trump can energize voters with his performance on stage, the people said,” he continues.

“Trump’s advisers have also been buoyed by the likelihood that microphones will be muted when it is not a candidate’s turn to speak, believing it defangs Harris in being able to fact-check him in real time and in her ability to make quips of her own.” Lowell’s always been good, but this…

This is freaking gold, even without any anonymous quotes in the piece. They’re “buoyed” on the likelihood that mics will be muted this round? Holy fucking shit that is just beautiful.

“This is not normal” has been done to death, but the sheer level of not normal – of a presidential candidate tweeting a commercial for God knows what kind of fucking scam this is -does merit attention. “World Liberty Fi” doesn’t even have a website. Their Twitter page just lists a Telegram account URL. One of the posts, credited to Don Jr, says “Folks, we all know how crooked banks and financial institutions rig the system against everyday Americans. They shut people out, deny them loans, drown them in paperwork and kill them with legal and processing fees. Our entire family, has experienced this firsthand… we’ve been de-banked, de-platformed and had every political game imaginable played on us. These banks and the elites who run them want absolute control but that ends now. We’re making finance great again by putting the power back in YOUR hands.”

“This new DeFi platform will cut out the corrupt, expensive and inefficient middlemen. No more bureaucrats deciding your fate,” the post continued. Sounds very paradigm shifting to the next level.

“Real gross domestic product (GDP) increased at an annual rate of 3.0 percent in the second quarter of 2024, according to the ‘second’ estimate released by the US Bureau of Economic Analysis. In the first quarter, real GDP increased 1.4 percent. The GDP estimate released today is based on more complete source data than were available for the “advance” estimate issued last month. In the advance estimate, the increase in real GDP was 2.8 percent. The update primarily reflected an upward revision to consumer spending,” says a new US Bureau of Economic Analysis report.

A former top official with Russia’s Ministry of Defense was arrested Thursday on charges of engaging in corruption without the express permission of dictator Vladimir Putin, the AP reports.

Or it might have been that former Deputy Defense Minister Pavel Popov did have permission but it was rescinded without him being notified. Popov faces up to a decade in prison for some scam related to “Patriot Park,” an exposition center the AP says is known as Russia’s “military Disneyland,” and a pet project of former Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu to showcase USSR and Russian Federation history and weaponry. Popov is accused of embezzling rubles to fund renovations at his properties in the Moscow area. It’s not clear what “Patriot Park” charges for vodka relative to local stores, but if it’s really Russia’s Disneyland then it’s gotta be at least a 300 percent markup.

‘I Did Fries’: Kamala Harris Claims She Worked at McDonald's, but She Never Mentioned It Until She Ran for President. Did She Really Toil Beneath the Golden Arches? https://t.co/EmeLJzXv9B

A new USA Today/Suffolk University national survey of likely voters finds Vice President Kamala Harris leading convicted felon former President Trump 48 to 43 percent, an eight point net swing against the fat fuck as in June the same pollster found him leading Joe Biden by 3 percent.

“The vice president’s small lead was fueled by big shifts among some key demographic groups traditionally crucial for Democrats, including Hispanic and Black voters and young people. Among those with annual incomes of less than $20,000, in the biggest change, a 3-point Trump edge over Biden in June has become a 23-point Harris advantage over Trump in August,” USA Today writes.

Convicted felon former President Trump’s campaign tell Axios they’re “weighing options” on releasing their footage of the altercation with an employee at Arlington National Cemetery, as if the fact that they haven’t released it by this point doesn’t already say everything you need to know.

People are right to be skeptical about the impact on voters considering all the shit Trump’s gotten away with over the years that would have ended other campaigns. It was a month ago that the fat bastard embarrassed himself at the National Association of Black Journalists conference basically denying the existence of mixed-race Americans and that had basically no downside impact on his favorability numbers in polling. No reason to expect otherwise in this. And yet there’s this feeling that the Arlington shitshow less a self-punch to the face and more a metastasizing cancer feeding off what were already diseased nodes in the system: Trump’s disdain for “losers and suckers,” claiming the “Presidential Medal of Freedom” is better than the Congressional Medal of Honor, the overall cuntishness of filming a campaign ad at a memorial he didn’t attend the previous two years, a horrible tragedy that he blamed on Joe Biden but isn’t even running against Biden anymore.

The carefully considered damage control when he’s supposed to be “winning the news cycle” against Kamala Harris for doing a joint interview with Tim Walz makes it seem this is spiraling.

“New Emerson College Polling/The Hill swing state surveys find a tight race between Vice President Kamala Harris and former president Donald Trump. Harris has a slight edge over Trump in Michigan (50 percent to 47 percent), Georgia (49 percent to 48 percent), and Nevada (49 percent to 48 percent). The candidates are tied in Pennsylvania (48 percent to 48 percent). In Wisconsin and North Carolina, Trump has a one-point edge over Harris (49 percent to 48 percent), and Trump leads by three in Arizona (50 percent to 47 percent),” reports Emerson College in a write up of their swing state polling commissioned by the global leader in shitty political news, emphasis ours.

Is it bitchy to point out the homerism? Probably. Does that make us wrong overall to be documenting the homerism of two organizations that seem to constantly go out of their way to give the “slight edge” to MAGA whenever and wherever they can? Fuck no. Someone’s gotta collect the receipts of their miserable cocksuckery and we don’t see any other sites else really stepping up here.

Suspecting a vast criminal conspiracy to rig, police in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil on Wednesday executed 16 search warrants of claw machine games to determine why the hell it’s been so hard for even skilled players to win a stuffed animal in recent years, the Associated Press reports .

Police in Nassau County on New York’s Long Island said they arrested a man for carrying a 14-inch knife after they stopped and searched him because he was violating the county’s new anti-mask law, the Washington Post reports.

Wearing a balaclava-type head covering, eighteen-year-old Wesslin Omar Ramirez Castillo was arrested for criminal possession of a weapon and he was also charged with a misdemeanor for violating the county’s Mask Transparency Act.  The law specifically allows people to wear masks for medical or religious purposes, but bans other efforts to hide one’s identity.

The employee of Arlington National Cemetery who was shoved and abused by convicted felon former President Trump’s staff for attempting to enforce the rules about not turning the place into a campaign stop has declined to press charges against the Trump minions out of fear of violent retaliation from MAGA terrorists, of course, the New York Times’ Maggie Haberman reports.

In related news, couchfucker JD Vance continued defending the incident, saying the media and Democrats were “acting like Donald Trump filmed a TV commercial at a gravesite,” which was incorrect because it was a TikTok commercial. Also the family of a a Green Beret who died by suicide after serving roughly a dozen combat tours and is buried near the site of the altercation issued a statement to the Times ripping into Team Orange for putting his gravestone in their demented propaganda video, saying “We hope that those visiting this sacred site understand that these were real people who sacrificed for our freedom and that they are honored and respected accordingly.”
