A Saturday Fox News article headlined “Bono’s ‘300,000 dead’ claim over USAID cuts gets smacked down by Rogan, Musk: ‘Liar/idiot’” unintentionally revealed, once again, an extreme state of confusion in the MAGAverse as to what is and is not a flex of political, policy, and media strength for convicted felon President Trump’s regime and the vast propaganda ecosystem that keeps it afloat, all of it through the omissions of various facts pertinent to the subject matter in the article.

But first here’s what is in the article, starting with lede: “U2 frontman and longtime global activist Bono took a swing at the Trump administration disbanding the US Agency for International Development (USAID)) on ‘The Joe Rogan Experience’ podcast, blaming the cuts for a staggering 300,000 deaths. And he was swiftly fact-checked by Rogan and Elon Musk in a takedown that lit up social media.” Okay, insufferable messianic Irish rock star owned by bald idiot who thinks dragons are real and male urinary incontinence sufferer. Real feel-good, America First story in Foxland.

The first exit poll from Poland’s Sunday presidential election finds pro-EU centrist Warsaw mayor Rafal Trzaskowski with a freaking tight-ass 50.17 to 49.83 percent edge over MAGA-backed right wing historian Karol Nawrocki. Exit polls are usually shit in the United States, but in a lot of other countries – Poland included – they tend to be predictive of the outcome. Outgoing incumbent right winger Andrej Duda was ahead over Trzaskowski by 50.4 to 49.6 percent in the first 2020 exit poll and ultimately won with 51.3 percent of the vote. It ain’t over yet, but it’s a good sign.

Revealing far too much about his level of governing acumen, convicted felon President Trump on Sunday posted “If the Courts somehow rule against us on Tariffs, which is not expected, that would allow other Countries to hold our Nation hostage with their anti-American Tariffs that they would use against us. This would mean the Economic ruination of the United States of America!”

Extrapolate this for a second: Say Cuba fired a volley of missiles at Key West, killing hundreds of Americans. There’s no active AUMF against Cuba so – just as a thought experiment – suppose that Trump would abide by the absence of one and have to go to Congress and request it to retaliate.

Does anyone seriously believe that Congress would turn him down? Is he really this fucking daft that if the Supreme Court says Congress has to authorize (most of) his tariffs, that they would not actually go along with it if foreign markets started their own moronic “Liberation Day” trade wars?

Holy shit this is a really fucking stupid way to try to sell his position on tariff authority.

During his televised Wednesday afternoon meltdown over the “TACO” meme in which he raged at a reporter for asking “nastiest question” about Wall Street’s seeing him as constantly chickening out on tariffs, convicted felon President Trump also mentioned he’d “never heard that.” Amazingly it’s quite likely the fat bastard was actually telling the truth there as White House sources tell CNN he raged at his minions for not telling him about it. “He thought the reporter was calling him a chicken,” a source said, adding that Donald was “reasonably” frustrated with the phrase.

“It clearly bothered him, primarily because it demonstrated a lack of understanding about how he actually utilizes those threats for leverage,” said another minion, lol. “But obviously he’s not a guy who looks kindly on weakness, so the idea anyone would think that with respect to his actions isn’t received well.” CNN’s reporting does not, unfortunately, include any further specifics about TACO man getting angry with his underlings, like if it was obvious to him that they had been aware of it, and of course they no doubt did by that point, but avoided telling him for fear of his wrath.

That being said it’s really all on him for watching Fox News all but suck his cock all morning only to be surprised by something could’ve seen on CNBC, Bloomberg, etc or by spending five minutes reading any major news site. That way he’d be prepared when taking questions from the MSM.

Ukraine’s government “did NOT notify the Trump administration of the attack in advance” of the drone strikes inside Russia that destroyed at least 41 of dictator Vladimir Putin’s heavy bomber aircraft parked on four different airfields, Axios reports on the convicted felon president’s failure to do his buddy in Moscow a solid or to help bring about a peace agreement 3,144 hours after the self-imposed deadline of 12 noon on January 21st, 2025 Trump had promised on the campaign trail.

CORRECTION 6/1/2025 12:51 PM EDT: Axios fucked this up but did not actually note the mistake, simply appending “Editor’s note: This story has been updated with additional reporting.” The original version printed about an hour ago attributed a Ukrainian official when they wrote “Ukraine did notify the Trump administration of the attack in advance” in their story about the strikes, emphasis added.

Treasury Suckretary Scott Bessent on Sunday told CBS’s Margaret Brennan that American retailers like Walmart have the freedom to choose how they handle the increased costs of tariffs in that they can either eat the tariffs and decrease their profit margins or they can just not sell the imported goods subject to the levies. “Wait and see what does happen,” Bessent said, a running theme with Republicans this morning. Later in the clip Bessent basically called JP Morgan CEO Jamie Dimon a moron for predicting that the Big Beautiful Bill would do long-term damage to the US bond market.

Really short Kentucky Senator Rand Paul on Sunday told CBS’s Margaret Brennan he “thinks” there are “four of us at this point” in the Senate GOP ready to vote against the “Big Beautiful Bill” and thus sink it, but added that with some changes he could be brought on board.

Everything will be fine. You’ll see. Even Speaker Mike Johnson is saying it. “Just wait. We’ll have plenty of time for this to, uh, all shake out before the next election cycle, and everyone will see they’re gonna be doing a lot better before that election.” See? Mike Johnson told that to NBC’s Kristen Welker when she asked if President Trump will have to own an increase in debt and Johnson just straight up delivered the facts as he sees them: There are going to be more jobs, more money, more economic growth, the Congressional Budget Office is wrong, the millions of able-bodied young men defrauding Medicare by not working will have to get those jobs and there’s so much evidence of such poll-tested messaging being effective. Just wait. It’s coming. You will be convinced.

Sources in the Ukrainian SBU tell the Kyiv Independent that a coordinated Sunday morning operation at four different airfields deep inside Russia – including a base near Mongolia and another in the Arctic Ocean coastal region of Murmansk – has destroyed “more than 40” of dictator Vladimir Putin’s heavy bomber aircraft using drones launched from “mobile wooden houses” staged nearby.

“The SBU first transported FPV drones to Russia, and later on the territory of the Russian Federation, the drones were hidden under the roofs of mobile wooden houses, already placed on trucks. At the right moment, the roofs of the houses were opened remotely, and the drones flew to hit Russian bombers,” a source told the Independent, adding “SBU drones are practicing on aircraft that bomb Ukrainian cities every night. Currently, more than 40 aircraft are known to have been hit, including the A-50, Tu-95 and Tu-22 M3.” It’s not clear how large of a dent this is to Russia’s aerial bombardment capacity. Kyiv is going to hype this up no matter what but 40-odd bombers is definitely a lot. Still, without a frame of reference it’s hard to know how big of a deal it is.

😂💯

Also, to be clear, I am NOT taking drugs! The New York Times was lying their ass off.

I tried *prescription* ketamine a few years ago and said so on 𝕏, so this not even news. It helps for getting out of dark mental holes, but haven’t taken it since then.

At least two people are dead in separate incidents after France celebrated football club Paris St Germain’s 5-to-0 absolute beatdown of Inter Milan in the Champions League tournament final on Saturday, Sky News reports. One was murder, as a 17 year-old boy was stabbed to death during a street party in the city of Dax, the other a man who was hit by a car while riding a scooter during PSG celebrations in Paris. The French Interior Ministry in total linked 559 arrests, 192 injuries, 692 fires, including 264 involving vehicles, to the big win by the nation’s most popular pro football club.

The the 2023 implosion of the Titan submersible is in the news again as the BBC/Discovery Channel documentary Implosion: The Titanic Sub Disaster premiered this week and on June 11th Netflix will debut Titan: The OceanGate Disaster. But maybe even more illuminating than either is kind of talented director James Cameron’s interview with 60 Minutes Australia from last year on the matter.

The entire storyline itself is as much about ego and hubris as it is the vagaries of undersea exploration technology and goddamn is Cameron’s ego big in this piece. What’s fascinating about it though is that it’s an ego that recognizes that it is not always that of the smartest guy in the room, fully aware and fully acknowledging of its limitations in contrast to a world being driven by egos like Stockton Rush – and of course the World Tag Team Champions of not even fucking remotely as smart or capable as they think they are. The non-humility humility of Cameron truly shines here, the whole “I only know like 85 percent of what I’m talking about when it comes to the extremely complex and dangerous world of pelagic exploration but I listened to very carefully to the guys who know the other 15 percent and that’s why I’m still alive while Stockton Rush isn’t” bit is so sufferable.

Fucking prick, lol.

“After a thorough review of prior associations, I am hereby withdrawing the nomination of Jared Isaacman to head NASA. I will soon announce a new Nominee who will be Mission aligned, and put America First in Space. Thank you for your attention to this matter!” posted TACO man on Saturday.

Amazingly, it seems Laura Loomer was supportive of Isaacman, as she tweeted “Isaacman is very qualified to be the next NASA Administrator. It’s unclear why his nomination is being pulled,” earlier in the day, so yeah, the second sentence is kind of true. Who knows what the hell happened. It must’ve been someone else’s internal power play against Ketamine Brain, as Musk had backed Isaacman – a payment processing CEO and a SpaceX investor/mission pilot – for the post.

The fat bastard then reposted some cultist’s conspiracy theory about President Joe Biden being a clone or a cyborg or something, which said “There is no #JoeBiden – executed in 2020. #Biden clones doubles & robotic engineered soulless mindless entities are what you see. >#Democrats dont know the difference,” and yeah that’s a little extra, even for the insane shit Trump propagates.

Following a rant on her personal Substack complaining about how Defense Secretary Petey Pee Pants’ new regime was limiting access to the building unseen in even the first Trump Administration, OAN Pentagon reporter Gabrielle Cuccia was fired for daring to question the wisdom of the rapey white nationalist alcoholic, CNN reports. “I was asked to turn in my Pentagon badge to my bureau chief,” Cuccia told the network on Friday, just three days after she wrote “This article isn’t to serve as a tearing down” of Hegseth, Cuccia wrote on Tuesday. “This is me wanting to keep MAGA alive.”

Sources inside the intel community tell NBC News that Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard is looking into, per NBC, improve convicted felon President Trump’s “trust” in the material contained in the presidential daily briefing and has been asking her staff to spitball new ideas on how to “make it more aligned with how he likes to consume information.” One possibility considered was, copying this verbatim because NBC actually printed it, “creating a video version of the PDB that’s made to look and feel like a Fox News broadcast,” a statement on the level of mental incapacity by the commander-in-chief that is one of the most lib-owning things ever.

Holy freaking hell, what a demented shitbag. Even more ridiculous about this reporting is how it makes a genocide-curious absolute fucking scumbag like Gabbard look like a paraprofessional devising strategies for handling a particularly difficult student at a school for special needs children.

Seriously, read this shit: “Under that concept as it has been discussed, the national intelligence director’s office could hire a Fox News producer to produce it and one of the network’s personalities to present it; Trump, an avid Fox News viewer, could then watch the broadcast PDB whenever he wanted. A new PDB could include not only graphics and pictures but also maps with animated representations of exploding bombs, similar to a video game, another one of the people with knowledge of the discussions said.” So they’re going to have to give Bret Baier and his producer a security clearance and they’ll be privy to the most sensitive national security secrets, lol.

Speaking with his minions this week about the end of drug addict Elon Musk’s reign of terror over federal government departments, convicted felon President Trump privately asked “Was it all bullshit?” on whether the Tesla founder ever could have actually come close to his $2 trillion goal in eliminating “waste, fraud, and abuse,” the Wall Street Journal reports, citing White House sources.

The story’s a pretty funny valedictory on the 130-day misadventure, including a bit on Musk’s “battle for Western civilization” in the Wisconsin state Supreme Court race, mentioning how Team Orange was fucking pissed over him making the election a referendum on Donald and Elon. The Journal writes that “Musk was dismissive of those concerns, saying the polling he commissioned showed Schimel had a chance. Trump became annoyed after doing a town hall with Schimel, telling advisers that he was done with him because Schimel couldn’t answer questions cogently about abortion, according to people familiar with the matter. Schimel lost overwhelmingly,” lol.

The top comment’s pretty goddamned funny too. Very rarely does the Journal fit into the time-honored National Zero “MAGA Land” comment format here since the posters tend to be libs and Never Trumpers, but this one definitely could’ve been a “MAGA Land”: “Just… no. I estimate that he chances that three WSJ reporters have any inside information on either Elon Musk or Donald Trump are about 0.00 percent. The chances that these WSJ reporters would give an unbiased, informative take are also, in my estimation, 0.00 percent.” That is a LOT of butthurt from an unhappy subscriber.

Citing concerns about tariffs and the economy, M&S Air Conditioning of Leesburg, Florida has backed out of its service contract with the Lake Sumter Landing section of The Villages, leaving a fairly large number of government buildings in the very MAGA golf cart maze of retirement community without a provider for air conditioning repair and maintenance, Villages-News reports.

Last month M&S submitted “a written notice of their intent to unilaterally terminate all active agreements across the Districts, citing economic conditions and increased tariffs,” according to a memo from the District’s purchasing department. Staffers cried foul saying the agreements do not include a provision allowing for “unilateral termination” by the contractor for such Trump-induced causes, issuing a formal demand for resumption of services, which M&S promptly ignored.

The Villages overlords then recommended finding a new contractor that isn’t woke and Marxist.

A Trump regime official tells Politico that they’re “fighting a losing battle” against Harvard and accidentally created sympathy for them with the batshit insane revocation of their license to accept students on foreign visas. “We’ve taken one of the most evil institutions and made them the victim.”
