Yeah, it’s definitely hard to tell your audience that your Orange Messiah’s promises to lower the cost of living were bullshit and he does not know what the fuck he’s doing. Totally understanable.

A “Middle East expert who speaks regularly with” the Trump Regime tells the Financial Times that convicted felon President Trump told a “prominent Jewish donor” at some unspecified event in the last few weeks that “My people are starting to hate Israel,” which tracks with the fat bastard’s recent public pushback against the Netanyahu Regime’s genocidal campaign against Gazan civilians.

“Will there ever be a blow-up with Israel and Trump?” said the expert, anonymously because the Regime would immediately try to destroy someone who would go on the record about the Orange Tyrant’s court intrigue. “I don’t think so. But there are people in the White House who are watching this narrative develop in the right wing, in the MAGA world, that is very anti-Israel, very anti-Jewish.”

Yeah, no shit. Unfortunately it would seem that certain predictions are holding up all too well and more rapidly than its author had anticipated. Of course the conservative establishment’s thrall to Israel and MAGA latching onto that as a propaganda weapon against Palestinian-aligned leftist politicians and activists is a bad thing. It’s just that a post-Israel MAGA might be even worse.

Jeffrey Epstein sex trafficking victim Virginia Giuffre’s two brothers and her sisters-in-law tell the Atlantic that convicted felon President Trump’s claim that Jeff “stole” Giuffre from him makes her family members “ask if he was aware of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell’s criminal actions, especially given his statement two years later that his good friend Jeffrey ‘likes women on the younger side… no doubt about it. We and the public are asking for answers, survivors deserve this.”

On Trump’s apparent consideration of a pardon for Ghislaine Maxwell, the family wrote that “If our sister could speak today, she would be most angered by the fact that the government is listening to a known perjurer, a woman who repeatedly lied under oath and will continue to do so as long as it benefits her position… The government and the President should never consider giving Ghislaine Maxwell any leniency. Maxwell destroyed many young lives, and she was convicted for only a fraction of the crimes she actually committed.” And Trump wished her well back in 2020.

Irony’s been dead for years but Republicans continue to desecrate its grave, spread the fragments of its bones around, stomp on those tiny fragments, urinate on them, then smear the urine mud on their faces and scream “LOOK LIBS! WE’RE WEARING PISS MUD WITH DEAD IRONY BITS IN IT!”

If there’s any better way to describe House Oversight Chairbilly James Comer saying Biden wore makeup to conceal his decline and that he was surrounded by a cult then let’s hear it.

A “senior White House official” anonymously tells the Washington Post that the Epstein shitshow, in their view at least, has somewhat, sort of calmed down. Kind of. “I wouldn’t say it’s blown over,” said the source. “It’s one of those things where, with a certain segment of the base, a very small segment of the base, it’s never going to die down, no matter what.”

“Why would one ‘Republican,’ Senator Josh Hawley from the Great State of Missouri, join with all of the Democrats to block a Review, sponsored by Senator Rick Scott, and with the support of almost all other Republicans, of Nancy Pelosi’s Stock Trading over the last 25 years. The information was inappropriately released just minutes before the Vote – Very much like SABOTAGE! The Democrats, because of our tremendous ACHIEVEMENTS and SUCCESS, have been trying to ‘Target’ me for a long period of time, and they’re using Josh Hawley, who I got elected TWICE, as a pawn to help them. I wonder why Hawley would pass a Bill that Nancy Pelosi is in absolute love with – He is playing right into the dirty hands of the Democrats. It’s a great Bill for her, and her ‘husband,’ but so bad for our Country! I don’t think real Republicans want to see their President, who has had unprecedented success, TARGETED, because of the ‘whims’ of a second-tier Senator named Josh Hawley!” posted convicted felon President Trump on Wednesday, raging that the stock trading ban bill would include presidents and vice presidents along with members of Congress.

But it doesn’t actually “target” him because it won’t kick in until 2029… Unless he plans on canceling the election and remaining dictator for life, at which point a stock ban also wouldn’t matter.

Lmaooooooo now the media is trying to insinuate Trump killed Jeffrey Epstein himself. 😅😅😅😅😅😅

ORANGE MAN BAD

In one of those statements that was quietly passed to political news outlets and embargoed until the same exact time – this one being 3:00 PM EDT on the dot, so that’s really the only reason those perfidious twats at the Hill got to this first, former Vice President Kamala Harris announced she will not be running for governor of California in 2026, leaving the road open for a 2028 presidential run.

Former Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi on Wednesday announced her retirement in a really roundabout, unofficial way by announcing she supports the Senate’s version of the congressional stock trading ban, saying “We must have strong transparency, robust accountability and tough enforcement for financial conduct in office because the American people deserve confidence that their elected leaders are serving the public interest not their personal portfolios. If legislation is advanced to help restore trust in government and ensure that those in power are held to the highest ethical standards, then I am proud to support it – no matter what they decide to name it.”

Yeah, of the bills is named the “PELOSI Act.” Continued: “While I appreciate the creativity of my Republican colleagues in drafting legislative acronyms, I welcome any serious effort to raise ethical standards in public service. The HONEST Act, as amended, rightly applies its stock trading ban not only to Members of Congress, but now to the President and Vice President as well. I strongly support this legislation and look forward to voting for it on the Floor of the House.”

“Today, the US Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) is sanctioning Brazilian Supreme Federal Court (STF) justice Alexandre de Moraes (de Moraes), who has used his position to authorize arbitrary pre-trial detentions and suppress freedom of expression. ‘Alexandre de Moraes has taken it upon himself to be judge and jury in an unlawful witch hunt against US and Brazilian citizens and companies,’ said Secretary of the Treasury Scott Bessent. ‘De Moraes is responsible for an oppressive campaign of censorship, arbitrary detentions that violate human rights, and politicized prosecutions – including against former President Jair Bolsonaro. Today’s action makes clear that Treasury will continue to hold accountable those who threaten US interests and the freedoms of our citizens,'” says the Treasury Department in a press release.

“Today’s action is being taken pursuant to Executive Order 13818, which builds upon and implements the Global Magnitsky Human Rights Accountability Act and targets perpetrators of serious human rights abuse around the world. Today’s action follows the US Department of State’s revocation of de Moraes’s visa and those of his immediate family members on July 18, 2025, for their complicity in aiding and abetting de Moraes’ unlawful censorship campaign against US persons on US soil.”

Huh. “Their complicity,” like they’re supposed to kill their dad for signing off on charges against Bolsonaro for plotting a coup and inciting a riot after his defeat to Luiz Lula in 2022.

The fat bastard was similarly confused when a reporter asked him about the “burn bags,” the latest MAGA conspiracy thriller story but then he got it mixed up with the Epstein clusterfuck. Very sad.

The Federal Reserve Bank on Wednesday told convicted felon President Trump “fuck you” and refused to lower interest rates, disobeying the Orange God Emperor’s repeated and insistent commands to do so.

Officials with the US Department of Energy say yes, there are wasps at a former nuclear munitions plant in South Carolina and yes the wasps are radioactive but it’s not as scary as it sounds, the AP reports, explaining that they already blasted wasps with regular insect spray and they’re dead.

Nobody needed to use any sort of superpowered anti-nuclear insect spray. Okay? Jeez.

“On Saturday, August 2, Senator Cruz will join Attorney General Brenna Bird at the Brenna Bird Barn Bash in Dallas County, Iowa, where he will deliver remarks,” says a press release on TedCruz.org.

🚨🚨🚨 HOLY SHIT A BARN BASH! THAT’S ALMOST AS BIG AS A RUMP RIDE OR WHATEVER THEY CALL IT WHEN THE CANDIDATES RIDE ON MOTORCYCLES WITH THE IOWA PEOPLE! WOW! 🚨🚨🚨

MAGA Congressman Eric Burlison, who was credulous last year when presented with information that there are four main alien races regularly visiting Earth – the Greys, the Nordics, the Reptilians, and the Insectoids, who look kind of like praying mantises, according to abductees – was similarly open to possibly suspect claims on the question of whether President Donald Trump had ever visited dead sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein’s private abode in the US Virgin Islands when it was a really expensive brothel, telling Wolf Blitzer that he took Trump at his word on the matter.

Ever the helpful one, Massachusetts Senator Liz Warren on Wednesday reminded convicted felon President Trump that he on the campaign trail had promised specifically to lower electricity bills by half within his first year back in office, CNN reports on a letter reading “Rather than keeping his campaign promise to ‘cut the price of energy and electricity in half,’ President Trump’s shortsighted approach to energy policy is driving prices higher and doing so quickly. Instead of feeling relief, families are paying higher and higher utility bills.” Trump should thank her for the timely note to stay on his to-do list instead of ranting about his dead friend Jeffrey Epstein constantly.

A scheduling notice posted by the US Supreme Court on Wednesday lists Jeffrey Epstein accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell’s bid to overturn her 2021 conviction as slated for their September 29th conference, meaning Los Supremos have nudged her case – that the 2008 deal Epstein struck with prosecutors should also apply to Maxwell – closer to full certiorari. Slightly closer.

Oklahoma state Superintendent of Education Ryan Walters on Tuesday declared that the law enforcement investigation into Oklahoma state Superintendent of Education Ryan Walters had cleared him of any impropriety for having a screen displaying naked ladies during a meeting in his office last week, KFOR reports on a complete and total exoneration for the controversial official.

“We have had our name cleared by both the Oklahoma Office of Management and Enterprise Services and the sheriff’s office,” Walters said, using “we” and “our” for reasons unclear but he is an education professional, you know, so it’s probably proper usage. Plus he’s an expert on pronouns.

“There is nothing scandalous that I was a part of whatsoever,” Walters added, switching back to “I.”

A spokesman for the Oklahoma County Sheriff’s Office disagreed with Walters’ facts. “That simply isn’t the case,” Aaron Brilbeck told KFOR. “Our investigation is still ongoing. In fact, I would categorize it as being in its infancy. This is going to be a very thorough investigation. And once the investigation is complete, we’re going to be very transparent with our findings,” Brilbeck continued with his alternative viewpoint on whether Walters is under investigation for the naked ladies incident.

Walters on Tuesday also educated media on the theory that the television in his office displaying the naked ladies was simply tuned to a cable network of an unspecified nature. “None of my devices were ever connected to that TV,” Walters told reporters, adding that the sheriff’s office “concluded there weren’t devices connected to” the television. Brilbeck later again had alternative facts about that specific aspect, saying the sheriff’s office had not made such a determination.

An anonymous Republican operative “close to the White House who works on Senate and House races” tells Politico Playbook he’s come to a certain realization about the party’s push to redraw congressional maps in Texas and other states, on that should’ve been obvious from the get-go, especially given convicted felon President Trump’s obsession with maintaining control of the House.

“If we are relying on redistricting to hold the majorities, we have bigger issues,” said the operative. In the very next quote, the operative then decided it was worth it anyway. “Frankly, Democrats do it, so we are giving them a dose of their own medicine,” he said, evidently satisfied with the justification.

Which should tell you that the new Texas map – which Punchbowl News reports creates five new Trump +10 seats – is not being seen as enough in that state nor are Republicans particularly optimistic they can squeeze enough out of other states. Further down Playbook also rates it as highly likely California will respond in kind, thus leaving the most probable outcome a wash of very-low-single-digit seats shifted nationally and more bad blood Blue and Red between states.
