“Real gross domestic product (GDP) decreased at an annual rate of 0.2 percent in the first quarter of 2025 (January, February, and March), according to the second estimate released by the US Bureau of Economic Analysis. In the fourth quarter of 2024, real GDP increased 2.4 percent. The decrease in real GDP in the first quarter primarily reflected an increase in imports, which are a subtraction in the calculation of GDP, and a decrease in government spending. These movements were partly offset by increases in investment, consumer spending, and exports. Real GDP was revised up 0.1 percentage point from the advance estimate, reflecting an upward revision to investment that was partly offset by a downward revision to consumer spending” says a Bureau of Economic Analysis report.

Something something the revision doesn’t count that Biden was president for the first 20 days of Q1.

We are living under Jew tyranny.

Tired of all the bullshit from having a constitutional republic rife with dysfunctional political parties and corruption, more than 20,000 Nepalese monarchists turned out Thursday in Kathmandu to agitate for the re-coronation of the Himalayan country’s King Gyanendra Shah – who was ousted in 2008 – and the restoration of Hinduism as the official state religion, the Associated Press reports.

“Bring king back to the throne and save the country. We love our king more than our lives,” the monarchists chanted to the beat of some traditional drums and musical instruments. “We are going to continue our protests until the centuries-old monarchy is brought back and the country turned in to a Hindu stage for the interest of the country,” said monarchist leader Dil Nath Giri.

Separated by a barrier manned by hundreds of cops across the public square was a rival demonstration by fans of Prime Minister Khadga Prasad Oli. The AP did not put an estimate of the number who showed up but it’s implied that they were considerably fewer. Might’ve helped if they had called up the opposition party and said “Look, obviously we kind of fucking hate each other and are going fight hard next election but there isn’t going to be another election if we can’t stand together against these royalist sons of bitches. Like now, so get your asses down here pronto.”

The last monarchist rally ended with two dead – one of them a TV news cameraman – and several buildings torched after cops began firing live ammunition and tear gas into the raucous crowd.

Chinese communist officials on Thursday spiked the ball over the brutal and possibly fatal setback to convicted felon President Trump’s moronic trade war, with Commerce Ministry spokeswoman He Yongqian telling reporters that “China has consistently maintained that trade wars have no winners and that protectionism offers no way out,” the Wall Street Journal reports from the other side.

The spokeswoman cited domestic US opposition to the stupid, regressive bullshit being forced on consumers, adding China had called on America to “heed rational voices from the international community and within the country, and to completely eliminate these misguided unilateral tariffs.”

What a nice break for Trump: Nice exit ramp from the “TACO” mockery and getting blamed for massive self-inflicted inflation PLUS the Chicom reaction right here lets him and his minions scream how the US Trade Court was doing the Xi Regime’s bidding. Everything’s coming up MAGA.

“WHOA! That baby looks biracial! What the hell’s going on here? We forgave her for clicking ‘like’ on Taylor Swift’s Instagram post endorsing Kamala Harris last year on the condition she continue to be an unwilling champion of white heterosexuality in a league dominated by Black lesbians but here she goes AGAIN arousing our suspicions that she’s coming dangerously close to abrogating the ephemeral social contract with us that she hasn’t read, let alone signed, and never will,” would seem to be the reaction Fox News is looking for from their audience with this “sports news” tweet.

Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed Bonesaw, UAE President Mohammed bin Zayed, and Qatari Emir Tamim al-Thani all told convicted felon President Trump to oppose Israeli dictator Benjamin Netanyahu’s aims to strike Iran during the fat bastard’s visit to their countries this month, Axios reports on just one more piece of evidence that the ultrawealthy Arabs have Donald in their pocket.

The fairly obvious upshot is that the three countries – all of whom host US military bases – would be targets for any Iranian retaliation should Israeli jets and missiles rain hell on Tehran’s nuclear facilities. The corrupt and compromised president on Wednesday confirmed to reporters that he had indeed asked “Bibi” to check himself on attacking Iran, saying he could get a deal signed with Iran within a “couple of weeks.” Such a strong president, total fighter, that Donald Trump.

A federal judge in Boston late Wednesday ruled that the Trump regime ended temporary protected status for hundreds of thousands of Afghan, Ukrainian, Cuban, Haitian, Nicaraguan, and Venezuelan refugees, the AP reports while noting that the immediate impact of the ruling was unclear.

This CNN yapfest show is pretty stupid. This line, from author Jen Welch, was pretty goddamned funny however: Douchebag Kevin O’Leary was bullshitting as usual about how convicted felon President Trump’s lawsuit against CBS was somehow valid and defensible when Welch cut him off with “I have a question. How do you guys constantly defend the biggest whining titty baby ever?”

Simple. Effective. Funny. All too rarely employed means of shredding and slicing his loyal fanboys.

“A Pakistani-American businessman awaiting sentencing on federal charges developed close ties to members of Joe Biden’s inner circle and met multiple times with him when he served as vice president, emails show. A longtime aide to Biden urged Hunter Biden to cultivate a relationship with the businessman, Imaad Zuberi, and other major Democratic donors, in order to ‘pull them in a little closer to Team Biden,’ one email shows. Zuberi later met multiple times with Joe Biden, according to the emails. In one meeting, Zuberi told Saudi Arabia’s ambassador about Biden’s comments about the Iran nuclear deal. Zuberi and two business partners also met with Joe Biden in November 2014 in Morocco, emails show,” wrote the Daily Caller in a February 15, 2021 article, copied verbatim because it just screams “ZUBERI BAD! HUNTER BIDEN BAD! ZUBERI CORRUPT! BIDENS CORRUPT!”

Aaaaaaaaaaand the New York Times just reported that convicted felon President Trump on Wednesday commuted Zuberi’s 12 year prison sentence he got after pleading guilty in 2020 to funneling a $900,000 donation to the fat fuck’s 2017 inauguration committee, among other scams.

No way the Daily Caller feels stupid for making Zuberi into a “Biden crime family” crony. Seriously, there’s no way they feel stupid about it because they’ve already completely walled it off mentally.

“BREAKING! In a major WIN in our powerful lawsuit against the Pulitzer Prize Board regarding the illegal and defamatory ‘Award’ of their once highly respected ‘Prize,’ to fake, malicious stories on the Russia, Russia, Russia Hoax, by the Failing New York Times and the Washington Compost, the Florida Appellate Court viciously rejected the Defendants’ corrupt attempt to halt the case. They won a Pulitzer Prize for totally incorrect reporting about the Russia, Russia, Russia Hoax.”

“Now they admit it was a SCAM, never happened, and their reporting was totally wrong, in fact, the exact opposite of the TRUTH. They’ll have to give back their ‘Award.’ They were awarded for false reporting, and we can’t let that happen in the United States of America. We are holding the Fake News Media responsible for their LIES to the American People, so we can, together, MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!” posted convicted felon President Trump on his shitty Twitter clone Wednesday.

It’s not clear what the fat bastard means with “Now they admit it was a SCAM,” but it seems he actually thinks that an appellate court in Florida refusing to toss the case is the same thing as “they,” as in the defendants, have decided to settle. However he feels better after the tariff beatdown.

On that note, the fat bastard’s lawyers have already filed an appeal against the Trade Court ruling.

The judicial coup is out of control. https://t.co/PRRZ1zU6lI

“The Constitution grants Congress the exclusive power to ‘lay and collect Taxes, Duties, Imposts and Excises’ and to ‘regulate Commerce with foreign Nations.’ The central question in these two cases is whether the International Emergency Economic Powers Act of 1977 (‘IEEPA’) delegates these powers to the President, effectively authorizing the imposition of unlimited tariffs on goods from nearly every country in the world The court does not read IEEPA as granting such sweeping authority and, as a result, sets aside the challenged tariffs imposed under it” says a US Court of International Trade ruling in VOS Selections Inc, et al v the United States, et al. Probably a bad day for the fat bastard.

Axios’s two-sentence article says the ruling “could bring the trade war to a screeching halt.”

Convicted felon President Trump’s legal team have rejected a $15 million settlement offer from Paramount/CBS to capitulate on his fucking stupid lawsuit over standard edits applied to former Vice President Kamala Harris’s interview with CBS, as the Wall Street Journal reports, Trump wanted $25 million plus an apology. The fat fuck’s lawyers also threatened them with another lawsuit over CBS’s coverage of his failed second presidency at some point during these talks, per the Journal’s sources.

“Wednesday is the deadline for Trump to respond to Paramount’s motion to dismiss the lawsuit,” the Journal writes. Copied that sentence verbatim because it’s unclear what’ll happen next. Still, fuck the brass at Paramount for even entertaining settling with the fat bastard over this bullshit case.

Utterly detestable piece of shit Republican Wisconsin Senator Ron “RonAnon” Johnson on Wednesday hinted to the crowd at a press club event in the Cheesehead State that he doesn’t want to run for a fourth term in 2028 but isn’t ruling it out, per the AP’s Scott Bauer, who quotes RonAnon as saying “I’m just a guy from Oshkosh just trying to save this country.” Ughhh, just fuck off and die.

RonAnon famously pledged only to run for two terms and then more famously and typically cuntishly he reneged on that and ran again in 2022, which was a good year for incumbents of both parties pretty much everywhere. He’s up again in 2028 which just might not be a good year for Republican incumbents, especially in a tight swing state. Ron’s probably going to hold out as long as he can.

The Trump Regime’s Commerce Department on Wednesday ordered tech companies including Cadence, Synopsys and Siemens EDA among others to halt the sales of their semiconductor design software to Chinese buyers, the Financial Times reports. An official told FT they’re “reviewing exports of strategic significance to China. In some cases, [the department] has suspended existing export licenses or imposed additional license requirements while the review is pending.”

Wow. Sounds like an actual smart, strategic move to slow the ChiComs’ quest for tech dominance, and something that maybe might work better than trying to onshore jobs assembling Barbie dolls.

Weird how corrupt Tennessee MAGA Congressman Andy Ogles doesn’t put a name to this homicidal maniac who killed 50 people in the United States, which would put his body count higher than those of all but the most prolific* serial killers in American history. Seems like this is the sort of information that would be important to American law enforcement looking to close some unsolved murder cases.

*Yes, in the annals of the most notorious serial killers there’s very often a wide gap between what they confessed to/claimed versus what was confirmed with evidence beyond a reasonable doubt. If Ogles isn’t making this up (quite possible) then the guy he spoke to almost certainly was making it up if not massively exaggerating. The point is that either way Ogles just looks really fucking stupid.

Convicted felon President Trump on Wednesday commuted the three federal life sentences of Gangster Disciples founder Larry Hoover, freeing him from supermax prison ADX Florence in Colorado, NOTUS reports. The 75 year-old Hoover was also sentenced to life plus 200 years by an Illinois court in 1973, then another three life bids after his 1997 federal conspiracy conviction.

Meaning that the most likely outcome right now is that Hoover has to go back to prison in Illinois, making this commutation utterly pointless. Worth asking if Trump knew this beforehand.

“Satellite imagery shows showers and thunderstorms are becoming better organized around an area of low pressure located several hundred miles south of the coast of southern Mexico. However, the system still appears to lack a well-defined center of circulation. Environmental conditions remain favorable for further development, and a tropical depression or tropical storm is expected to form later today or tonight as the low moves generally west-northwestward at around 10 mph. Formation chance through 48 hours: high, near 100 percent. Formation chance through 7 days: high, near 100 percent,” says a Wednesday bulletin from the National Hurricane Center on would-be storm Alvin.

Hurricane season doesn’t actually officially start until this Sunday, June 1st. Might as well start early.

“It is my great honor to nominate Emil Bove to serve as a Judge on the United States Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit. Emil is a distinguished graduate of Georgetown Law, and served as Assistant US Attorney in the Southern District of New York for nearly a decade, where he was the Co-Chief of the Terrorism and International Narcotics Unit. Emil is SMART, TOUGH, and respected by everyone. He will end the Weaponization of Justice, restore the Rule of Law, and do anything else that is necessary to, MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN. Emil Bove will never let you down!” posted convicted felon President Trump on Wednesday. Bove is part of the reason “convicted felon” is in the previous sentence as he and other now high-level Justice Department official Todd Blanche failed to talk the all twelve jurors in Manhattan out of voting guilty on 34 counts last year.

He’s also the reason New York City Mayor Eric Adams is no longer facing charges and because Bove completely fucked up the whole quid pro quo scam he no longer has the sword dangling over Adams’s head. Probably not going to be fun for him to face questions about that in the Senate.

Republican Congresswoman Ashley Hinson is already getting some boos and jeers from the not-particularly large crowd out in Decorah, Iowa. Let’s see if she snaps angily.
