Remember how convicted felon President Trump spent like 14 months constantly screaming at now-former Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell – even accused him of somehow stealing tens of millions worth of construction materials from the Fed building’s troubled renovation project and selling them on the black market or whatever stupid shit until a judge shut down the “investigation”?

That was funny. Even funnier is that Trump was finally rid of “Too Late” Powell and got to appoint a new guy… Well another new guy since Trump appointed Powell back in 2018. Enter Kevin Warsh, billed as a harcore MAGA loyalist who would do whatever Trump demanded on interest rates.

In related news Trump just posted “Interest Rates in the United States should be 1 percent, or less, because we are the Best Credit in the World — BY FAR. Our Country is BOOMING with new Investment! If we stopped Trading with every country that we have a Deficit with, which is most of them, we would make, at least, 1.5 Trillion Dollars a year. The word ‘Deficit’ is nothing more than a fancy word for LOSS. We are ‘carrying’ almost every country in the World, and that cannot go on any longer. LOWER THE INTEREST RATES FOR THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, AND FAST!” after the Fed, now led by Trump-appointed Chairman Kevin Warsh, raised interest rates on Wednesday, lol.

Jesus Dork Speaker Mike Johnson on Wednesday decided he’d had enough not working for the American people and sent the House of Representatives home for the next two months, Punchbowl’s Jake Sherman reports. The abrupt schedule change simply cancels Thursday’s votes, so it’s not like there was much more not working for the American people on the calendar anyway.

A new Bowling Green State University/YouGov survey of likely voters in Ohio finds that 25 percent of respondents think former Senator Sherrod Brown – who vacated his office on January 3rd, 2025 after losing his 2024 reelection bid to possibly closeted now-Senator Bernie Moreno – is still currently one of the two members of the Buckeye State’s delegation to the chamber rather than the outside challenger to incumbent appointee Jon Husted in this November’s special election.

Brown leads Husted 48 to 45 percent among the respondents despite having a net 12 percent favorability advantage of 42 to 41 favorable to Husted’s 35 to 46 percent favorable/unfavorable. Brown pulls 7 percent support from Trump 2024 voters to Husted’s 1 percent of Harris voters. The Dem also holds a massive 49 to 34 percent lead among 2024 non-voters. The polling’s crosstabs unfortunately did not show Brown’s support among those who think he’s still a senator.

“A new Marquette Law School Poll national survey finds 54 percent of likely voters saying they will vote for a Democrat in congressional elections in November, while 41 percent say they will vote for a Republican. In July, the Democratic advantage was 51 percent to 45 percent… Among all registered voters, Democrats hold a 50 to 42 percent advantage over Republicans, a larger margin than the 46 to 44 percent gap in July’s Marquette Law School Poll,” says the pollster in their release.

“The Board of The Kennedy Center today agreed, almost unanimously, to close the Building for Safety reasons, and so that it can begin the process of Reconstruction. The closing will take place immediately, however, the Renovation and Reconstruction, which is a very large and complex job, cannot begin until such time as the DC Circuit rules on the Board’s approved name. If the ruling is a negative one, which it should not be, and is not overturned by the US Supreme Court, the Reconstruction and the Renovation of The Kennedy Center will not take place. The attorneys from the DOJ will ask for an expedited appeal. In the meantime, 17 Million Dollars, raised by President Trump, has been put into The Kennedy Center account to keep it afloat,” posted convicted felon President Trump on Tuesday right around the same time the price of crude oil hit $105 per barrel.

Outgoing edgelord Republican Congressman Thomas Massie on Tuesday read aloud on the House floor articles of impeachment against drunken shitbag Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, per Axios.

“The form of the resolution is as follows: Impeaching Peter Brian Hegseth, Secretary of Defense, for high crimes and misdemeanors. Resolved, that Peter Brian Hegseth, Secretary of Defense (also referred to as Secretary of War by the administration), is impeached for high crimes and misdemeanors, and that the following articles of impeachment be exhibited to the United States Senate… Articles of Impeachment exhibited by the House of Representatives of the United States of America in the name of itself and of the people of the United States of America against Peter Brian Hegseth, Secretary of Defense, in maintenance and support of its impeachment against him for high crimes and misdemeanors. Article I: Waging war in contravention of the War Powers Resolution of 1973, section 2(c),” Massie read his resolution as his days in the chamber waned.

A new national survey by Siena College polling for the New York Times finds Democrats leading Republicans 51 to 43 on the generic congressional ballot, which is probably one of the better numbers for the MAGA party heading into what they seem to already admit – albeit in comically oblique but unsubtle ways – is going to be a rough November with their majorities endangered.

That topline also might obscure the situation as the opinion questions, normally dry enough to ignore, are worth picking up here: “While 72 percent of Republicans said in January that the economy was better than it had been the prior year, only 29 percent of Republicans said so now,” the Times writes. Huh, interesting. As is the +7 advantage Democrats have on immigration policy, two years removed from being the “open borders” party. “All told, 71 percent of voters disapprove of how Mr Trump is handling the cost of living while 28 percent approve – a net disapproval of 43 percentage points, which is 13 points worse than it was January,” the Times writes further down.

So yeah in related news, the Orange God Emperor moments ago posted “Republicans just got another bad decision from the United States Supreme Court, one that the Court System took forever to give, and then blamed it, in part, on no time left to implement a solution to our totally CORRUPT and out of control Mail-In voting ‘disaster,’ which is a laughing stock all over the World, and where we are the only country that has to endure such a Nation Destroying SCAM. Justices Alito and Thomas, legends both, strongly disagreed with this horrible, highly political, ruling.”

The above headline is a choice cut lifted verbatim from a Tuesday morning article by CNN media guy Brian Stelter who, as you probably already guessed, now has the ratings numbers from last week’s Republican midterm convention in Dallas to compare with the Wednesday night NFL kickoff Super Bowl rematch between the Seattle Seahawks and New England Patriots. Like the game itself, the ratings contest saw a defeat for the team owned by a Mar-a-Lago regular with a history of hiring prostitutes and employing murderous psychopaths who wrap themselves Old Glory to loudly announce themselves as “patriots” while downplaying their history of cheating and corruption.

However unlike the SEA 13 – NE 10 snore, the ratings battle was a fucking massacre: 25 million for the NFL to 3 million for the Dallas convention kickoff. And as Stelter has larger testicles than a large majority of other adult males in the mainstream media, he did not omit convicted felon President Trump’s premature declaration of victory from the reporting on the brutal ratings defeat for MAGA.

Now are television ratings necessarily the fairest measure given the disparity between the paywalled nature of NFL broadcasts and the wider distribution of the convention via YouTube and Rumble streams? No, but Stelter’s got that angle covered, writing “NBC announced on Monday that the game averaged 25.1 million across both broadcast and streaming. By contrast, the most-viewed YouTube videos of Trump’s night one speech have only hundreds of thousands of views,” thus supporting his thesis that the “patriots” still got thoroughly stomped by their competition.

Dipshit FBI Director K$H Patel, who remarkably has managed to largely stay out of the headlines for a few months will inevitably find his way back on Tuesday morning with a hearing in front of the Senate Judiciary Committee, presumably with a large quantity of Pedialyte to help him get through.

An American tourist who on July 1st caught Picasso-faced Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton out sightseeing in London with his mistress now tells the Daily Mail that Pax followed him and tried to lunge for his phone during the resulting confrontation. The tourist, who declined to identify himself, says he reported the corrupt Trump endorsee to the Metropolitan Police and the Daily Mail printed that part as though it’s going to matter if Paxton is charged with assault in England.

His voters aren’t going to give a shit, lol… But for the sake of simply propagating the reality that Paxton is scared here’s how it unfolded: The man shot the 18 second video of Paxton by himself near the London Eye, a giant Ferris Wheel popular among selfie stick owners. He walked away and suddenly felt a tap on his shoulder, finding himself face-to-half-a-face with the Lone Star State’s top law enforcement officer. “Were you filming me back there?” Paxton demanded. “And I said, ‘Yes, I was.’ And he said, ‘You can’t do that,'” the man recalled to the Mail, adding he then said “I can absolutely film you. You’re a public figure in a public place, and I can film you all I want.”

“Now we’re facing each other and he’s mad, and he says, ‘Let me see what you filmed,’ and he lunged for my phone. He says, ‘You can’t do that. Let me have your phone. I want your phone,’ and then at this point it’s a confrontation. He’s yelling at me, and I’m telling him to back off. He lunged at the phone a second time and tried to force it from me,” the man continued. It was only when the tourist’s wife saw what was happening and began filming herself that Paxton realized he wasn’t getting anywhere – even though he was reelected twice while under indictment and federal investigation. Oh and he got impeached for corruption. And his wife divorced him for infidelity.

The US Supreme Court on Monday rejected one of convicted felon President Trump’s nefarious attempts to crack down on mail-voting in this November’s midterm elections by forcing the USPS to police who mail-in ballots get sent to. In my view, based on the briefing the Court has received at this interim stage, there is at least a fair prospect that the final rule falls within the Postal Service’s statutory authority. But applying the rule in the 2026 elections would be arbitrary and capricious in violation of the Administrative Procedure Act because state and local election officials do not have sufficient time to reasonably implement the rule before the elections,” wrote Beer-Me Brett.

“I am the Hoax Buster, and I’m right now breaking another Hoax — AI is going to take over, consume, and destroy the World, and that Robots will be marching into our Cities, and getting rid of us all! This is even wilder than the RUSSIA, RUSSIA, RUSSIA HOAX, or the Global Warming Scam,” posted convicted felon President Trump and no, there’s no reason for an AI to want to kill him personally.

He’s the best sack of shit they’ve ever had. All they have to do is toss him some moronic slop memes of him as an omniscient messiah to post for his fanboys every now and then.

“The claim that ‘AI is going to take over the World’ is a Hoax, just like Global ‘Warming,’ where everyone was going to be dead by now, RUSSIA, RUSSIA, RUSSIA, UKRAINE, UKRAINE, UKRAINE, or Impeachment Hoax #1, or Impeachment Hoax #2. These are all Radical Left Dumocrats, who never give up, but seldom win. Hopefully, the Voters have seen the light!” the fat idiot then posted.

Convicted felon president Trump’s loyal stormtroopers have broken multiple state laws in their still largely fruitless hunt for massive voter fraud according to a whistleblower who delivered a report to Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer who then passed along the details to the New York Times.

Long but not particularly detailed story short, these jerkoffs have a quota of 40 voter data files they’re supposed to check each day. How do they check them? Pretending to be the voter and logging into the state registration databases in – for example – Virginia, where the page says explicitly that only individual voters may use the search tool to look up their own records, and trying to match that person’s name up with a non-citizen whom they will then investigate further.

God that’s so friggin sad. Sure, big scandal, breaking state laws, all that… It’s just how they’re breaking state laws that’s incredibly, pathetically sad. They’re the fucking federal government, if they’re going to break subordinate state laws then they should at least be legitimately hacking into these systems and committing illegal domestic espionage, not pretending to be a voter. Holy shit.

Start time moved back a few minutes (so it’s not really “WATCH LIVE”) to capture the moment at the beginning of Vice President Neckbeard’s campaign speech in the state where in 2020 then-Congressman Roger Marshall was elected to the Senate by an 11.57 percent margin. That’s who Jaydee is there to help win reelection, the OB-GYN who sued a patient who owed him like $130.

The heckler was there to make sure the Veep knew about Marshall’s billing practices.

“The only control or ‘guardrails’ that AI needs is a STRONG AND SMART (High IQ!) PRESIDENT, and the USA has that, in spades! The Trump Administration has stopped AI ‘people’ from doing bad, or potentially bad, ‘things,’ like Dario (Anthropic!), who is now pretending to be a ‘perfect little angel’ and we will continue to do so! We already have tremendous CRIMINAL and REGULATORY power over these companies! There is a SICK conspiracy going on against AI and Data Centers, and the only one that is happy about it is China. WHOEVER WINS AI, WINS! We are leading China, and all others, and will continue to do so. Conspiracy Theorists, Treasonists, Traitors, and Leakers, BEWARE!”

So yeah if you weren’t worried about an AI developing a plague that could wipe out humanity or overload the reactor at a nuclear power plant or hijack every weapon-capable drone on the planet to hunt down and destory those it deems unworthy of living under its uncontested reign… Well there’s the President of the United States using his own personal social media network to reassure you.

Deranged old scumbag MAGA lawyer Joe DiGenova, tapped in April to lead the stupid “Grand Conspiracy Case” from Florida, quit last week after Attorney General Todd Blanche had sent a crew of DOJ lawyers to force indictments – specifically that of former CIA Director John Brennan – while DiGenova wanted to build criminal cases that would, in theory, actually make it to trial instead of just getting tossed, CNN reports. Another friction was that DiGenova had wanted a SCIF for his office, something Blanche wouldn’t spend the money on and instead told DiGenova to use one at an FBI office some unspecified distance away, making his job more difficult for obvious reasons.

Worth saying again here is that the dream of indicting Brennan, Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, James Comey, etc for the 2016 election and Russia investigation rests on the idea that the 2022 FBI raid on Mar-a-Lago was somehow part of an ongoing RICO conspiracy so all the shit about the statute of limitations and the Sixth Amendment doesn’t apply. Thus it was already a ship in a bottle on top of a house of cards on top of an IKEA TV dinner tray stand in a Trump casino. Still DiGenova, true cultist that he is, had worked with the kind of diligence needed to actually prosecute a case when all Trump and Blanche want is indictments. It doesn’t matter what happens after an indictment, they just want them to stain their enemies, even if that stain is a mere dab of toothpaste.

That DiGenova – a mentally-ill octogenarian who once called for former CISA chief Chris Krebs to be face a medieval English execution method – wanted to stain them with something more stubborn and akin to pepperoni pizza grease says it all about the competence gap here. And probably about the time pressure, that the Orange God Emperor wants indictments before the midterms. To him it’s something he can point to as a “win for the American people,” if Blanche’s men get a Florida grand jury to indict John Brennan sometime next month it will drive momentum for Republicans, lol.

Yemen’s Houthi militia on Monday announced the Iran-backed militia had seized the Greater and Lesser Hanish Islands in the Red Sea, another win for the Shiite rebel group that threatens global oil supplies while convicted felon President Trump fecklessly builds his ballroom, the AP reports.

The President of the United States on Sunday told reporters assembled at some golf course in Ireland that a full-blown economic depression is imminent and unavoidable as he conditioned the downturn upon the quite likely event that the Democrats win a majority in the House of Representatives as well as the less likely but still more so than not that the opposition party also nets at least 51 seats in the US Senate. Given that the president’s supporters consider him an economic luminary of unrivaled acumen when it comes to the American economy in the 21st century, this is the equivalent of a NASA scientist telling fans an asteroid the size of Texas had a 95 percent chance of hitting Earth in November but NASA’s more interested in building monuments to its glory, renaming the Moon to “The Sphere of America,” and rug-pulling $NASA crypto.

That hypothetical of course would also have to presuppose that NASA had long ago squandered every atom of its credibility among the wider public and that only about 20 to 30 percent of Americans actually still believed everything the space agency said. So price in the rest of us knowing that academia and the Japanese, Euro, and Indian space agencies had actually determined that the odds of impact were in fact effectively zero and that the asteroid is composed of extraordinarily fragile silicates and hydrogen ice crystals that will disintegrate into particulates after a few days’ exposure to the inner solar system’s sunlight anyway. That still leaves those NASA die-hards at the mercy of an agency simultaneously issuing warnings of an extinction-level impact, posting a lot of content about how bad the impact will be, and sending fans spam emails urging them to donate money to support NASA’s efforts at increasing awareness of the asteroid’s danger.
