In a story linked from a BREAKING news banner saying “Fears of an AI bubble are hammering stocks for the 4th straight day,” the Wall Street Journal writes with moderate alarm that “Lofty valuations and a pile-up of debt to build data centers have led some investors to question the price of AI-linked stocks. A new survey found 45 percent of fund managers see an AI bubble as the top ‘tail risk’ for markets, and a surge of concern that companies are overspending, chiefly on AI-related projects.”

Copied that verbatim to highlight the, um, glaringly evident kayfabe of it all. If 45 percent of fund managers admit the reality of the effervescence of the current market then, well, you know, the Bradley Effect and all. The existence of this bubble became something approximating conventional wisdom about six months ago and yet the “fear” of the prophecy’s self-fulfillment is what’s taking a toll now. Previously the bubble had been inflated by non-fear, or “bullishness” on the value of AI investments, itself having fully manifested the bubble. In conclusion, the stock market is stupid.

On stage is a placard reading “DANGERS OF THE DISCHARGE PETITION (If not amended) (1) Victim Privacy: Does not adequately protect victims. (2) Innocent Persons: Risks disclosure of non-credible allegations, creating new victims. (3) CSAM: Fails to adequately protect against the release of Child Sexual Abuse Materials. (4) Future Investigations: Provides no protections for whistleblowers or undercover law enforcement, etc. (5) Declassification: Requires release of information that could reveal confidential methods and sources,” so yeah they’re having second thoughts on this.

Separately CNN’s Annie Grayer reports that Speaker Jesus Dork told his team he’s voting yes.

“THE ONLY HEALTHCARE I WILL SUPPORT OR APPROVE IS SENDING THE MONEY DIRECTLY BACK TO THE PEOPLE, WITH NOTHING GOING TO THE BIG, FAT, RICH INSURANCE COMPANIES, WHO HAVE MADE $TRILLIONS, AND RIPPED OFF AMERICA LONG ENOUGH. THE PEOPLE WILL BE ALLOWED TO NEGOTIATE AND BUY THEIR OWN, MUCH BETTER, INSURANCE. POWER TO THE PEOPLE! Congress, do not waste your time and energy on anything else. This is the only way to have great Healthcare in America!!! GET IT DONE, NOW,” posted a Fox News-brained old man on Tuesday.

Yeah that’ll solve the inflation problem. Also where the fuck are they going to buy healthcare from?

Margie already fired a hell of a shot against Donnie, saying: “I was called a traitor by a man that I fought for six years for. And I gave him my loyalty for free. I won my first election without his endorsement, beating eight men in a primary, and I’ve never owed him anything. But I fought for him for the policies and for America first. And he called me a traitor for standing with these women and refusing to take my name off the discharge petition. Let me tell you what a traitor is. A traitor is a is an American that serves foreign countries and themselves. A patriot is an American that serves the United States of Americans and Americans like the women standing behind me.”

Florida Lt Gov Jay Collins felt uninhibited enough to openly trash likely Republican gubernatorial nominee MAGA Congressman Byron Donalds on Monday, posting that the fellow Republican is “Soft as Soy” and “Traveling around the state with ZERO record and nothing but an endorsement to brag about is not good enough… Florida deserves better and I’ve delivered,” Fox News reports.

Convicted felon President Trump endorsed Donalds’s gubernatorial bid before the congressman had even really launched it, so it’s possible to see Collins’s disrespect for Donalds as another sign of the mainstream media’s current narrative of the Orange Tyrant’s weakening grip on power.

Twitter, Truth Social, Claude AI, ChatGPT, and a shit ton of other sites downstream from Cloudflare, the web’s outage-prone magic Macguffin, have been bricked Tuesday, Tom’s Guide reports.

The dickheads at the service claim to have identified the issue, per Tom’s Guide but that only calls into question why they’re still trusted in the first place to do whatever it is they’re supposed to do.

During recent visit in DC, the talk of everyone was how overt the corruption was. It's at levels you read about in history books. In nearly every department. Lots of, "Do people just think Democrats will never win and they'll all get away with this?"

Mike Cernovich is an OG MAGA “influencer,” going all the way back to 2016 and the heady days of Pizzagate and when “alt-right” was first coined. This “reporting” was flagged on Monday by CNN media correspondent Brian Stelter and the Bulwark’s Tim Miller, among other outside observers, as something approximating nervousness of future consequences for the current regime’s profligacy when the Orange God Emperor is finally out of power.

Douchebag former Treasury Secretary/Harvard President Larry Summers told the university’s newspaper the Crimson he will continue to “fulfill my teaching obligations,” but “will be stepping back from public commitments as one part of my broader effort,” after the tranche of Jeffrey Epstein emails obtained by House Oversight revealed extensive ties between Summers and the dead sex trafficker, USA Today reports. Maybe someone else mentioned in those emails should do the same.

Canadian MPs on Monday voted 170 to 168 to approve the federal budget, which screws the Tories out of a chance to take down Prime Minister Mark Carney’s government in snap election next month, the CBC reports. Might’ve helped the Tories if two of their MPs didn’t abstain from the vote, lol.

“Today I authorized my attorneys to file a temporary restraining order against Nancy Ruth Mace in hopes of shutting her up, which I know the whole world appreciates. And I just learned this morning that the judge ruled that ‘Jane Doe’, who is Alexis ‘Ali’ Berg, can no longer remain anonymous. The same applies to the ‘witness,’ Melissa Britton. From this point forward, there are no Jane Does. All parties must be referred to by their real names,” wrote Patrick Bryant on Facebook Monday.

“This restraining order is intended to prevent Nancy Ruth Mace from continuing to publish baseless claims about me on social media without offering a single piece of actual evidence. For two years she has used her platforms to defame me while producing nothing to support her allegations, while I have tried to allow the legal process to run its course. The restraining order also requests the judge to stop her from harassing my attorneys, which she has been doing through profanity filled threats and public smears. None of that should be tolerated from a sitting Congresswoman who has to lead by example,” Bryant continued in the post, replete with pics of the filing against his deranged ex.

Popular media personality Stephen A Smith on Friday absolutely blasted Democrats Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Gavin Newsom, and Chuck Schumer for avoiding his no holds barred, free-for-all radio, podcast, and television shows where he gets real on lots of hot topics, Fox News reports.

“Jasmine Crockett has been on this air — invited on this show for four months,” Smith said as he absolutely panned the reticence of Newsom and Cortez. “AOC has been invited on this show for four months. Gavin Newsom has been invited on this show longer than that. Props to Hakeem Jeffries.”

“He’s a friend of the show, always welcome on here. I like that man. I respect him. Chuck Schumer has been invited on this show. Hasn’t shown up. Where they at?” Smith continued, turning the heat up on the Senate Minority Leader for sticking to grandma TV channels like CNN and C-SPAN.

It’s not clear what Smith said after roasting the Democrats. Perhaps Mediaite will cover it.

“Farm Rich, America’s favorite mozzarella stick brand, is unveiling this fall’s must-have accessory: the Mozzarella Stick Scarf. From snack plates to seasonal style, the Mozzarella Stick Scarf blends cozy fashion and indulgent food that’s toasty, stretchy and delightfully unexpected in the best way.”

“In a season that’s all about warmth, nostalgia and a little indulgence, Farm Rich is turning up the fall fun with this limited-edition scarf inspired by its beloved mozzarella sticks. Designed to look like a golden, crispy mozzarella stick with a gooey, cheesy pull, the Mozzarella Stick Scarf is the ultimate fun foods, fashion statement – a playful reminder that cheese really does make everything better.”

“These exclusive scarves can only be snagged by entering Farm Rich’s social media giveaway on Instagram and Facebook (@farmrichsnacks).* Each scarf is custom-made, ultra-soft and unapologetically cheesy – like biting into a freshly baked mozzarella stick on a crisp fall day,” says a press release from Farm Rich frozen mozzarella sticks and God knows how much the marketing team got paid to come up with this while ordinary schmucks toil in a frigid mozzarella stick factory.

Cartoonish vigilante/former AM radio host/two-time New York City mayoral election loser Curtis Sliwa tells Time he refused to accept a $10 million bribe offered by a set of billionaires desperate to get him to drop out to help Andrew Cuomo win defeat now-Mayor-Elect Zohran Mamdani.

Sliwa did not name the billionaires (*cough* Bill Ackman, John Catsimatidis) who pretty plainly committed a major federal felony by attempting the bribe. He refused out of hatred for Cuomo.

Acting FEMA Director David Richardson, the dumb schmuck who had no idea hurricane season is a thing when he was hired after the previous FEMA chief was fired for being too pro-FEMA, resigned on Monday ahead of an expected firing for who knows what the dumbass did “wrong,” ABC reports.

The comedy value of the bears vs humans in Japan storyline continued to wane into “Okay seriously what the actual fuck is going on over there?” further on Sunday as a bear was tranquilized and then killed by responders via electrocution (no idea how or why that was the preferred method) after the animal wandered into a mall in Akita Prefecture, the Mainichi reports on the latest incident.

“A staff member made an emergency call to police around 11:20 am to report the entry into the mall of the bear, which was found near the first-floor furniture section. It was tranquilized by a blow dart before being killed by electric shock more than two hours later,” the national daily paper writes in the English version of their website of the encounter at the Aeon Noshiro mall in the town of Noshiro.

“I will be strongly endorsing against any State Senator or House member from the Great State of Indiana that votes against the Republican Party, and our Nation, by not allowing for Redistricting for Congressional seats in the United States House of Representatives as every other State in our Nation is doing, Republican or Democrat. Democrats are trying to steal our seats everywhere, and we’re not going to let this happen! This all began with the Rigged Census. We must keep the Majority at all costs. Republicans must fight back!” posted convicted felon President Trump on Monday, no longer bothering with the bullshit post-hoc justifications that Dems did it in Illinois, etc.
