Disney-owned streaming service Hulu is blocking ads from Dem campaigns on guns, abortion, and January 6th as “too sensitive” of subjects to run during its poorly-timed and unskippable commercial breaks on the lower-priced subscription tier, the Washington Post reports.

“Hulu’s censorship of the truth is outrageous, offensive, and another step down a dangerous path for our country,” the directors of the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee, the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, and the Democratic Governors Association told the Post in a joint statement. “Voters have the right to know the facts about MAGA Republicans’ agenda on issues like abortion – and Hulu is doing a huge disservice to the American people by blocking voters from learning the truth about the GOP record or denying these issues from even being discussed.”

Political ads aren’t banned altogether on Hulu and it’s not clear if GOP campaigns have better luck or even advertise at all on the platform. However, the fanboys should maybe remember this next time they freak out at Disney over some bullshit “controversy” they made up and realize that the company’s squeamishness on certain issues doesn’t always work against their party.

The ruling military junta in Myanmar canceled four pro-democracy libtards via hanging over the weekend, sparking international sky screaming over so-called “human rights violations,” Reuters reports. If Kyaw Min Yu, Phyo Zeya Thaw, Hla Myo Aung, and Aung Thura Zaw didn’t want to be canceled then they should’ve just complied with law and order. Myanmar is not a democracy, it’s a constitutional republic… ruled by a military junta. These four soytards did not support the troops.

They didn’t respect the uniform and were probably making business deals with China too. They were Myanmar-last socialists. Many people are saying Phyo Zeya Thaw was a rapper. His lyrics were definitely woke and anti-Myanmar. Very unpatriotic, terrible music. Go woke, neck broke!

A 47-year-old Texas man whose seven dogs attacked and killed a 71-year-old man who was walking to a neighborhood store has been charged with a second-degree felony, CNN reports.

Freddy Garcia was walking through his neighborhood in Fresno, Texas when seven dogs, all pit bull mixes, set on him and inflected such extensive injuries to him he was declared dead at the scene.  Officials with the sheriff’s office said Garcia did nothing to provoke the dogs.

A local news crew interviewed the dogs’ owner, Samuel Cartwright, who at first claimed that the dogs weren’t his, saying that more than 20 dogs were running wild in the neighborhood and that he called animal control to capture them.  However, investigators determined Cartwright had in fact fed and cared for the dogs, but failed to keep them confined in his yard.

A South African-based human rights group have filed a complaint with the Attorney General of Singapore, seeking the extradition of former Sri Lankan President Gotabaya Rajapaksa, who ran and hid like a bitch in the southeast Asian city-state after being deposed by an angry socialist mob earlier this month, the AP reports. Rajapaksa is sought for his role in war crimes his regime wrought on the country’s Tamil ethnic minority during a civil war which lasted until 2009.

A group of survivors and families of victims of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attack that killed nearly 3,000 Americans will hold demonstrations outside the gates of the Donald Trump-owned golf club in New Jersey hosting the Saudi-sponsored event, Politico reports.

The LIV Golf league has come under massive criticism for its connections to the Saudi royal family, who are linked to the al Qaeda terrorists who perpetrated the attack.  The league will host two events at Trump-owned golf courses:  one this weekend in Bedminster and another at the Trump Doral course in Florida.

It’s not known how much the Saudis will pay Trump for the events, but it is one way the Saudi Royal family can financially reward Trump for repeatedly siding with the Saudis during his single term as president, including completing controversial sales of weapons to them even though they’ve been linked to terrorist groups.

At least three people were hit by gunfire, with four others injured in the ensuing stampede, at a Los Angeles car show Sunday in a city park, Reuters reports.  The gunman is still at large, but police are not classifying this as an active shooter situation.

Details of what sparked the shooting are unknown, but two of the victims, one man and one woman, were in critical condition at area hospitals.  Five others were also treated for injuries, including one other gunshot wound.

Police have no description of the shooter, who was apparently targeting a specific individual or individuals.

After advising the dozen or so listeners to the YouTube channel–Daniel Schmidt is a freshman at the University of Chicago (“Where fun goes to die”) who has 116 subscribers to his channel–to drop out of college because “it’s ridiculous,” Fox host, frozen food heir and man who thinks it’s cool to be an open misogynist Tucker Carlson gives this lonely college boy advice about how not to live.

Men are programmed to hunt down and, y’know, pursue women, of course, but that’s, that’s the pleasure.  Like, having sex with strangers is never that fun–let’s just start lying about it [“Yeah,” Schmidt interjects as though he’s done it.] and you’re too drunk anyway, and you’re gonna have a much–no, I’m serious [indeciperable] ‘I can’t get married because I gotta, like, sleep with all these random girls… Okay… Call me when you’re finished doing that.  First of all, it’s super easy, so it’s, like, not an achievement at all, because feminism has convinced women that they have to be like men, so, like they have to sleep with you or whatever, it’s all so unbelievably fucked up, it’s hard to believe that it’s real, but it is.

So to summarize, Carlson tells this (likely incel) kid that it’s easy to sleep with women because “they have to sleep with you” and that sleeping with “random girls” is common, likely because Tucker himself could only do it when he flashed his daddy’s credit card, or paid for them with his allowance.

A bus full of passengers traveling to Nairobi, Kenya plunged off a bridge after its brakes apparently failed, causing the driver to lose control at high speed, killing at least 21 people Sunday, ABC News reports.

The head of the local rescue team said the death toll from the accident, which occurred at 6:30 p.m. local time, is likely to rise because rescue operations had to be suspended at nightfall.

This is the second mass-casualty bus accident in Kenya this month:  on July 8th, another accident killed 20 people.

For the second time in seven months, Republican Texas Lt. Governor Dan Patrick has tested positive for the coronavirus, but he’s experiencing minor symptoms because he’s been vaccinated and received at least one booster even though he claims the entire coronavirus pandemic is a hoax and said recent spikes in case numbers were due to African Americans not getting vaccinated.

According to the Associated Press, Patrick tested positive Saturday after having previously contracted the coronavirus December 27th.  In March 2020, the 72-year-old Patrick said old people should work through the pandemic–risking infection and death–to keep the economy going while younger, healthier people protect themself.  The typically hypocritical Patrick is now isolating at his home, although he claims to be working.

About a year ago, in August 2021, Patrick stated that the spike the nation was experiencing in coronavirus cases was because African-Americans were refusing to get vaccinated; however, the percentages of Blacks and whites in the US who have received at least one vaccination are statistically the same.

In the world of sport, the genteel game of chess doesn’t cause a whole lot of headline injuries.  However, when a Russian chess-playing robot became flustered during a match with a 7-year-old opponent who was playing rapidly, it reached out and snapped the youngster’s finger, breaking it, The Guardian reports.

The human player, one of the top youth chess competitors in Moscow, responded quickly after the machine had captured one of his pieces.  Organizers and the manufacturer of the machine claim the boy acted too quickly after the robot’s move, which caused the machine to fail to reset.  Or it could be that the vaunted machine was angry that the little pipsqueak was thinking faster than it was and resorted to traditional Russian way of handling upstarts:  by breaking bones.

The most (in)famous Supreme Court spouse in history, Ginni Thomas has been asked to give an interview to the House Select Committee investigating the January 6th domestic terrorist attack on Congress, and according to vice-chair Liz Cheney, if Thomas opts not to come in voluntarily, the committee will consider a subpoena, CNBC reports.

“We certainly hope that she will agree to come in voluntarily, but the committee is fully prepared to contemplate a subpoena if she does not,” Cheney said during an interview on CNN. “I hope it doesn’t get to that. I hope she will come in voluntarily.  It’s very important for us to speak to her.”

Thomas sent several text messages to Trump White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows encouraging the Trump cabal to undermine the Constitution and reinstall Trump to a second term in the White House even though he clearly lost the Electoral College and the vote.

Wildfires are torching large areas of land on every continent except Antarctica, with the American West seeing devastating a blaze in Yosemite National Park that has grown to more 14,000 acres, Reuters reports.

As NASA’s Fire Map shows, fires in central Africa affect more than 60% of the land, while areas of South America have been hit with hundreds of small fires throughout the Amazon rainforest, some natural and some manmade.

In Greece, four major fires have forced thousands of people to evacuate islands.  Elsewhere in Europe where record high temperatures have already impacted air quality, fires have hit the western Italian coast as well as northern France.

The average price for a gallon of regular gasoline in the United States has continued its steady decline, dropping 32 cents in the past two weeks, continuing a decline that stretched more than a month, the Associated Press reports.

The price drops trail the plummet in the price of a barrel of crude oil, which has dropped about 20% in the past six weeks, from a peak of $122 on June 8th to a closing price of $95 Friday.  Retail prices for gasoline, however, have not seen a parallel drop, going down only 11% over the same time.

In February 2022, when crude was selling for $95 per barrel, average retail gas prices were approximately $3.60.

“Look, it’s not just me saying that Donald Trump is unfit for office,” Republican Wyoming Congresswoman Liz Cheney tells a Fox host regarding conservatives opposing a Trump candidacy in 2024.  “It’s other entities owned by Rupert Murdoch.  It’s the New York Post and their editorial on Friday.  It’s the Wall Street Journal, said the same thing after our hearing on Thursday night.  So I’m going to continue to be guided by making sure I do my duty and making sure the American people understand the truth.”

Jeez, can’t Japan catch a break? First their former Prime Minister gets blown away in the middle of a speech, now this friggin Sakurajima volcano on the island of Kyushu erupts, Reuters reports. It’s just such bad luck after that dude killed Shinzo Abe with a homemade shotgun a few weeks ago, even if the volcano erupting isn’t that bad and there haven’t been any injuries or damage reported.

A Maryland woman fishing off the Florida coast was stabbed in the groin by a 100-pound swordfish that another member of her party had hooked and was trying to bring onboard the boat, the Associated Press reports.

The woman, from Arnold, Maryland outside Annapolis, told police the incident happened so quickly she couldn’t get out of the way, and no one on the boat had a sword of their own to repel the thrust.  As two companions tried to reel in the fish, the swordfish reportedly swam quickly toward the boat and leaped into the boat, in an apparent attempt to take out one of the humans.

More than two miles off the coast of Stuart, Florida, her fellow boaters applied pressure to the wound and returned to shore, where the woman got medical care and is expected to fully recover with a story no one will believe until she will show them her scar.  The condition of the swordfish was not reported.

In its internal investigation into erased text messages sent by agents on or around January 6, 2021, relating to Donald Trump’s actions and the domestic terrorist attack on Congress, the Secret Service has identified ten agents who deleted texts that may concern operations during that time, CNN reports.

In all, the agency was able to recover records for the text messages of 24 different agents.  They were only able to recover one text string that was tangentially related to official activities that day.  Ten people sent no text messages on official devices during that time, and three had personal messages, according to metadata, presumably identified through data provided by the carriers.

The texts were sent by ten agents who were either assigned to the protection details for Donald Trump or Vice President Mike Pence.  It is unclear why the Secret Service focused on these two dozen agents, but it could be that they were personnel on or leading the two details.

The DEA always get their man… eventually.  In this case, the Drug Enforcement Agency succeeded on their lucky thirteenth attempt, finally nabbing 69-year-old Mexican drug cartel leader Rafael Caro Quintero, the Washington Post reports.

Caro Quintero topped the DEA’s fugitive list because he was responsible for the 1985 kidnap and murder of DEA agent Kiki Camarena, who was assassinated in Guadalajara.  Caro Quintero spent time in a Mexican jail before being released on a technicality in 2013.

US law enforcement and intelligence agencies had been tracking Caro Quintero’s movements for the last nine years as he moved from camp to camp in jungles around northwest Mexico.  US agencies planned multiple operations to drop into the camps and snatch Caro Quintero, but the operations were canceled due to a number of different factors:  weather, questionable intelligence or failed diplomatic efforts.

“Remember, folks, the difference between a conspiracy theory and the truth, it used to be about six month, right?  Was there anything, all the things we’ve been talkin’ about… has there been one that we’ve been wrong about? … in the end, meaning… We were told we were wrong, we were canceled.  If you were a doctor and you questioned [indecipherable] Fauci, you were thrown out of the medical perfection [sic].  Any one of those things.  Huh.  Turns out they were right, huh?”

Obviously, the apparently just really hyper Don, Jr. addresses a bunch of students in an attempt to groom them to be ignorant assholes just like him.  Obviously over mourning his recently deceased mother–Ivana was his mother, right?  It wasn’t a hooker his father rented, right?  I mean, a real hooker, not a foreigner who wanted American citizenship–Junior forgets about the whole conspiracy his father continues to tell about the election, or the ones about injecting disinfectant to cure coronavirus, or that coronavirus wasn’t really a thing, or that he didn’t have any contact with Russians during the 2016 election, or that raking forests stop wildfires, or that he used the National Guard to attack Americans so he could get a photo op.  All those things–which are on various forms of media–are actually true.

Do you know who Benny Johnson is?  Yeah… neither do I.  Apparently, he’s some player with Turning Point USA, and he thinks an awful lot of himself.  Apparently, Turning Point doesn’t actually have a plan except to hold frequent conferences where they can bilk attendees out of money.  Last month, they had a conference for women; this one is for grooming students.  And Mr. Benny is one hip, cool dude, like your great uncle Phil doing the Electric Slide at a wedding.
