A second bald southern Republican Senator with the surname Scott could be jumping into the 2024 GOP presidential primary as the New York Times reports white collar criminal and utterly failed 2022 national Senate campaign chief Rick Scott is thinking about losing miserably to Trump too.

A DC federal court on Thursday set a July 27 plea hearing for failed Republican Michigan gubernatorial candidate Ryan Kelley on several misdemeanor charges over his participation in the January 6th, 2021 MAGA insurrection at the US Capitol, CBS News’s Scott MacFarlane reports.

Kelley, who was not one of the five candidates who were disqualified in the 2022 ballot petition forgery scam, had briefly led in the polls of the primary field – even after the arrest, but came in fourth against former B-movie actress Tudor Dixon after fat former President Trump endorsed her. Dixon was then crushed by 10 points against incumbent Dem Governor Gretchen Whitmer in November, so it’s hard to see how Kelley would’ve done much better while facing the charges.

Getting out ahead of their names being unsealed by a federal court, lying piece of shit Long Island Republican Congressman George Santos on Thursday told ABC News’s Rachel Scott the suretors who put $500,000 worth of collateral up to secure his bond are his dad Gercino dos Santos Jr and aunt Elma Santos Preven. An image of their signatures seems to kind of resemble their names.

Well it would seem that incredibly, besides that he claimed he would rather go to jail than have their names made public, Santos was telling the truth in this whole mini-saga and the suretors really were his family members. Look at him learning the value of honesty far too late to prevent him from eventually losing his seat and almost certainly spending years in federal prison.

Tired of testing out new ways to fuck themselves with swing voters, House Republicans are going back to the basics and looking into cutting Social Security and Medicare benefits, Semafor reports on a proposal released by the 176-member Republican Study Committee last week.

They detail raising the age gradually raise the Social Security eligibility age to 69 and subsidizing private health plans for Medicare-eligible seniors, changes that are radioactive and vehemently currently opposed by fat former President Trump and his diminutive rival Ron DeSantis, also creating an opening for President Biden and Democrats to bloody the GOP again on that front.

Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel on Thursday announced her office has indicted at least three individuals in connection to the 2022 ballot access petition forgery scam that saw five Republican candidates disqualified from the gubernatorial primary ballot, the Detroit News reports.

Shawn Wilmoth, Jamie Lynn Wilmoth, and Willie Reed each face dozens of charges including conducting a criminal enterprise, various counts of false pretenses, and forgery under Michigan’s election law over the clusterfuck that saw leading GOP candidate former Detroit Police Chief James Craig, businessman Perry Johnson – who spent $7.5 million of his own money on his campaign – and the three other scrubs tossed from the race. In Craig’s case, state election officials determined a staggering 9,879 out of 14,310 signatures on his ballot petition were invalid, the end result of the fuckery by the Wilmoths and Reed, who charged $13 per signature “collected.”

We guess “Never Back Down” is kind of sticking it to Disney by stealing and mangling a clip from a movie they now own since they bought the production studio in 2012 and its distributor in 2019. This meme definitely has that going for it. Not really sure what else to write here though, other than that it simply defies the imagination that a political operation would actually pay for this and post it.

Des Moines, Iowa meteorologist Chris Gloninger on Wednesday announced he was leaving local CBS affiliate KCCI – and the TV news business altogether – in part due to a threat from a MAGA terrorists accusing him of pushing propaganda about climate change, the Des Moines Register reports.

“18 years. 7 stations. 5 states. I am bidding farewell to TV to embark on a new journey dedicated to helping solve the climate crisis. After a death threat stemming from my climate coverage last year and resulting PTSD, in addition to family health issues, I’ve decided to begin this journey now.” Gloninger said in a statement. A Lenox, Iowa man was fined $105 in September 2022 for writing “You are worthless Biden puppet, a liar, a conspiracy theorist, and an idiot!!! You give Iowa a bad name, GO HOME BITCH,” and other shit in emails to Gloninger. It’s not clear if the asshole also wrote the threat that prompted the weatherman to quit, but the writer was not alone in his negative feedback.

Republican former Texas Congressman Will Hurd on Thursday told CBS News he’s running for president, further splitting the 2024 GOP field against fat former President Trump.

Probably a safe bet that the discovery evidence sent from Justice Department special counsel Jack Smith’s team to Trump’s defense lawyers, which reportedly includes even more audio recordings than just the interview with Mark Meadows’ ghostwriters where he admitted he hadn’t declassified an Iran war planning document, has the fat bastard pretty rattled this morning.

The all caps meltdown came after a string of other posts where Trump variously wrote he has “no doubt that information is being secretly ‘planted’ by the scoundrels in charge” in his “perfectly legal Boxes,” and that “The Radical Left Investigations of me now, Federal, State, and City, are a SCAM and continuation, tightly coordinated with each jurisdiction.” Normal stuff.

Texas state Senator Angela Paxton on Wednesday was barred from voting on the verdict in her Picasso-faced husband Attorney General Ken Paxton’s upcoming impeachment trial over charges including his securing a no-show job for a woman he was having an affair with, the AP reports.

Angela Paxton’s removal from the vote was among the rules set ahead of the trial, scheduled to begin on September 5th, leaving 30 senators, 18 Republicans and 12 Democrats, as the jury. A two-thirds majority will be required to remove Paxton from office after testimony is heard.

It was an inevitability after the live studio audience became a nightly feature, but now secret self-hating Trump advisor and Fox propagandist Sean Hannity has fully embraced hamming it up for laughs from the group of forty or so hardcore sadomasochists.  Hannity can now offer a demo reel including his impression of a himself if his lips were sewn shut.

CNN reports Donald Trump’s legal team has received the first batch of evidence used to indict the former president by a Florida grand jury, with transcripts of witnesses included in the delivery from prosecutors, including “the grand jury testimony of witnesses who will testify for the government at the trial of this case.”  Watch out for a tirade of fake tweets from the tiny-fingered vulgarian as he learns who said what about him.

Of note:  Special Counsel Jack Smith’s team noted in an evidence list that investigators obtained multiple recorded “interviews” with Trump, meaning they were made with Trump’s permission and that there were more tapes than the one made by Mark Meadows’ ghostwriters.

Apparently thinking history works like the “permanent record” you were warned about in elementary school, Republican Georgia Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene and New York Congresswoman Elise Stefanik will introduce a resolution to expunge both of Donald Trump’s impeachments from the House record, according to a story promoted by Marge herself.

Of course, no House resolution has the ability to repeal an impeachment made by a previous Congress, so such an action would simply be a further attempt to garner favor with the twice-impeached, twice-indicted former president.  Elise has flirted with this flirtation before, having joined an effort by Oklahoma Brown Nose now-Senator, then-Congressman Markwayne Mullen tried more than a year ago.

A new Yahoo News/YouGov poll finds President Biden leading disgraced former President Trump 46 to 42 percent in the 2024 election, with 8 percent undecided and 4 percent saying they would sit the election out, meaning it’s more like 48 percent to 42 percent in a head to head.

House Republicans on Wednesday voted to censure Dem Congressman Adam Schiff for tormenting fat former President Trump with the truth about his corruption for the years, CNN’s Manu Raju reports on the second try after an earlier version with a $16 million fine fell through on fears of similarly steep retribution against Republicans by Democrats in a future Congress. “It’s the people’s House, not Trump’s!” one Dem yelled as the caucus broke into jeers of “Shame!”

Watters wants to say it but stops himself, kind of. There’s definitely a “woke” in there in reference to the New York Post picking up the currently missing OceanGate CEO Stockton Rush’s past public quotes on how he preferred not to hire white navy veterans in their 50s to his company. Maybe Watters should’ve read up a bit before this segment as he might have found the New Republic’s article about Rush’s history of donations to GOP candidates. Then Watters could’ve switched to ripping a leftist rag for implying Rush deserved it for supporting Republicans.

The already icy relationship between QAnon fan Congresswomen Marjorie Taylor Greene and Lauren Boebert took a further nosedive Wednesday, according to members who tell the Daily Beast they witnessed a tense exchange between the two on the floor of the House of Representatives over “little bitch” Boebert “copycatting” Greene’s impeachment articles against President Joe Biden.

Boebert reportedly started it by confronting Greene over “statements you made about me publicly,” referring to Greene’s complaining earlier in the day over the impeachment tiff. Greene then snapped at Boebert, saying “I’ve donated to you, I’ve defended you. But you’ve been nothing but a little bitch to me, and you copied my articles of impeachment after I asked you to cosponsor them,” according to a witness. “OK, Marjorie, we’re through,” Boebert then said with a shrug. “We were never together,” Greene replied. Neither of them denied the exchange when asked about it by the Beast.

“A former analyst with the Kansas City Division of the FBI was sentenced in federal court today for illegally retaining documents related to the national defense at her residence. Kendra Kingsbury, 50, of Garden City, Kansas, was sentenced by US District Judge Stephen R Bough to three years and 10 months in federal prison without parole. Kingsbury pleaded guilty on Oct 13, 2022, to two counts of unlawfully retaining documents related to the national defense,” says a DOJ press release.

“Kingsbury admitted that, over the course of her FBI employment, she repeatedly removed from the FBI and retained in her personal residence (at that time in North Kansas City, Mo) an abundance of sensitive government materials, including classified documents related to the national defense. In total, Kingsbury improperly removed and unlawfully and willfully retained approximately 386 classified documents in her personal residence. Some of the classified documents she unlawfully removed and kept in her home contained extremely sensitive national defense information. According to court documents, Kingsbury put national security at risk by retaining classified information in her home that would have, if in the wrong hands, revealed some of the government’s most important and secretive methods of collecting essential national security intelligence.”

Weird how she pleaded guilty instead of posting on Truth Social about how Joe Biden got away with it, or that FBI planted the documents in her house, or that she didn’t have time to go through all the papers because her golf pants and newspaper articles were mixed into the boxes.
