Neighbors of 21 year-old registered Republican neckbeard Ryan Palmeter, of Orange Park, Florida, tell Action News Jax that he was the asshole who on Saturday murdered three Black shoppers at a Jacksonville Dollar General store before turning his Swastika-painted assault rifle on himself.

Within hours of the Jacksonville shooting, we have the manifesto and know the motive of the evil, racist terrorist. And yet we still don't have the manifesto of the transgender terrorist who shot up the Nashville Christian school. Why? #Jacksonville

This of course is how fanboys like former Fox News host Todd Starnes are reacting to the news about the killing. The problem isn’t the guns or the racism it’s that “we have the manifesto.”

“We” do not fucking “have the manifesto,” we have a brief description of it because Palmeter’s father, a liberal Dem, read it and immediately called the Clay County Florida Sheriff’s department to warn them that his son was armed, dangerous, and intent on shooting Black people. This was relayed to Jacksonville Sheriff TK Waters who told reporters about that portion of the manifesto’s contents, specifically that Palmeter “wanted to kill [n-words].” That a Black lawman clearly upset over a MAGA shitbag targeting other Black folks publicly discloses that portion of the manifesto and nothing else while the cops in Nashville have disclosed absolutely nothing of Audrey Hale’s final screed is naturally evidence of some sort of coordinated, far-reaching conspiracy to make MAGA look bad. It’s unlikely either manifesto will be made public in its entirety for a long time, if ever, yet it’s somehow unfair that the media learned a detail about Palmeter’s but not Hale’s. That’s how fucking petty and demented these people are. And Starnes is far from alone in this.

Fox’s cable propaganda network finally issued an apology to the family of a Marine killed in Afghanistan for claiming that the Marines made the family pick up the $60,000 cost of shipping her remains back to the United States, CNN reports.

After Florida Republican Congressman Cory Mills–you may remember him for sending dummy grenades to his colleagues when he first joined the House–made the claim, Fox ran with it online on July 25th with the headline “Family forced to pay to ship body of Marine killed after Pentagon policy change: ‘Egregious injustice’.”

“The allegations originally published turned out to be false, which I suspect Mr. Lee knew in the first place, and was the reason he did not seek comment from the Marine Corps,” wrote Marine Corps spokesman Maj. James Stenger in an email to the Fox executives after the initial story ran.

Far too busy campaigning to be 1st runner-up–“Should Miss America be unable to fulfill her official duties…”–among the also-ran GOP candidates, Republican Florida Governor Ron DeSantis will have his people check his schedule and they’ll get back to the people of Jacksonville, the Florida city struck by a racially-motivated mass murder earlier today.

The white man who shot three people in at a Dollar General store in Jacksonville wanted “to kill n*****s,” the local sheriff said of the shooter, who entered the store with an AR-15 assault-style weapon and a handgun, NBC News reports.  “This shooting was racially motivated, and he hated Black people,” Jacksonville County Sheriff T.K. Waters, who is Black, said at a news conference. “He wanted to kill n*****s.”

A tropical depression destined to become Tropical Storm Idalia has formed in the Gulf of Mexico, starting on a path that will cross over Florida and up the Atlantic seaboard through Thursday, WNCN CBS-17 in Raleigh reports.

Florida Republican Governor Ron DeSantis, in a rare moment when he wasn’t campaigning, declared a state of emergency, presumably prompted by the hurricane but likely to prompt DeSantis to bar the teaching of the women’s suffrage movement because Idalia attacked Florida.

The leaders of the Rusich Group, a brutal Russian neo-Nazi paramilitary group that supported the Wagner Group’s coup attempt in April says that the Kremlin abandoned its chief after he was detained in Helsinki, and its members will not fight in Ukraine until his return, the Telegraph reports.

“Since July 20, Yan Petrovsky has not been visited by either the Russian consul or a lawyer. The Slav [Petrovsky’s militia call-sign] is threatened with extradition to Ukraine either directly or through a third country in a fictitious criminal case,” the group said on its Telegram channel.  “Rusich stops performing any combat missions.  If a country cannot protect its citizens, then why should citizens defend the country?”

The impact isn’t expected to be as great at Wagner’s revolt:  Rusich members number in the dozens, not thousands.  And these motherfuckers are considered more brutal than Wagner troops:  they’ve posted video of themselves beheading a Ukrainian prisoner and literally killing puppies.

Long past the ten-year loan agreement from 2000, three giant pandas at the National Zoo in Washington, DC will be returned to China in December USA Today reports, leaving Atlanta the only US city to host the Asia species.

The three pandas–Mei Xiang (female) and Tian Tian (male), and their male cub Xiao Qi Ji– will be returned by December 7th.  Mei Xiang has given birth to seven cubs at the National Zoo; three did not survive into adulthood.  By agreement, all panda cubs had to be returned to China.

Mei Xiang and Tian Tian were the second pair of pandas sent to the National Zoo as part of a research and breeding program. Hsing-Hsing and Ling-Ling died at the Washington zoo in 1999 and 1992 respectively.

A new Yahoo News/YouGov survey finds that in the ten months since they last asked the question of whether “US government decisions were altered to benefit the Biden family, or that President Biden may have received bribes, or that there are direct links between the older Biden and Hunter Biden’s business deals, discussions or payments” – before Republicans took the House majority and launched all their stupid bullshit investigations – the number of respondents who say yes went up from 42 to 44 percent, well within the margin of error standard to such public opinion polling.

The “positive” news for the GOP, if you can call it that, is that more respondents think Hunter Biden did something illegal than they did in October 2022, up to 64 percent from 51 percent. Might’ve helped that Hunter was going to plead guilty to crimes before his deal collapsed. Yay for MAGA!

The massive slowdown in Chinese economic growth coupled with an implosion in the communist hellhole’s real estate sector isn’t going to cause any headaches for the American economy yet given the limited exposure of US manufacturing and financial sectors but that could change if the problems accelerate into a full-blown meltdown for the Xi Regime, the New York Times reports.

“It doesn’t necessarily help things, but I don’t think it’s a major factor in determining the outlook in the next six months,” said global finance egghead Neil Shearing in a recent webinar presentation, adding “Unless the outlook for China becomes substantially worse,” with the Times saying the main danger would be to US manufacturing if a slowdown drives them to undercut prices on exports.

“The Security Tapes from Mar-a-Lago that evil and sinister prosecutor, Deranged Jack Smith, ‘leaked’ or otherwise stated were deleted or altered were, in fact, NOT deleted or altered. It was a Fake Story put out by the government THUGS. Those tapes were openly handed over, without protest or litigation, and then the ‘Deranged One’ makes me look as bad as possible. The whole case is FAKE because I come under the Presidential Records Act. Biden or Pence did not!” wrote fat former President Trump at 1:35 AM EDT Saturday, calling a criminal indictment a “fake story.”

Ukrainian forces on Friday launched at least 42 drones on Crimea and fired a missile at Moscow amid Kyiv’s ongoing Independence Day celebrations, Reuters reports citing Kremlin statements.

The missile was supposedly shot down about 200 miles outside of Moscow, but the drone swarm on Crimea may have done some damage to naval facilities in the critical Black Sea port of Sevastopol.

In a Truth Social post we might’ve embedded if not for the redundancy on our home feed, fat former President Trump on Thursday posted his mugshot with the words “ELECTION INTERFERENCE -NEVER SURRENDER!” along with his campaign website URL. Trump literally surrendered to arrest and booking for his crimes in Fulton County hours earlier. Not surrendering would have made him a fugitive from justice but also would have been tonally consistent with the message to his fans.

And he’s already selling a really cheap looking t-shirt saying the same thing… for $47.

CNN reports the above image is indeed the official mugshot of disgraced former President Trump, a historic photo that he really should’ve smiled for if he wanted to sell more official campaign merchandise with it. He’ll sell plenty, sure. But a big shit-eating grin would’ve been better.

Five-time indicted felon Donald Trump reports to the Fulton County Jail to be processed through the system–for fingerprints, mugshots, and arraignment paperwork–just as would happen to any other criminal defendant.

Donald Trump will use a commercial bail bondsman to secure his release from the Fulton County Jail.  According to the New York Times, Trump will pay Charles Shaw of Foster Bail Bonds, the bail bondsman to the stars (who get in legal trouble in Atlanta), $20,000 cash to cover his $200,000 bond.
