Evidently letting one of his minions write the social media missives, convicted felon President Trump on Monday tried to unfuck that which he has irretrievably fucked, posting “I had a very productive call with Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu, of Israel, and there will be no Troops going to Beirut, and any Troops that are on their way, have already been turned back. Likewise, through highly placed Representatives, I had a very good call with Hezbollah, and they agreed that all shooting will stop, that Israel will not attack them, and they will not attack Israel.” Trump then added “Talks are continuing, at a rapid pace, with the Islamic Republic of Iran,” and nothing in the way of specifics.

South Carolina Congresswoman Sheri Biggs is, um, not what most would call an intellectual heavyweight or even a featherweight given he astonishment at how “complex” Iran is. But what she lacks in terms of elucidation and tenacity she makes up for in absolutism in terms of intolerance for political opposition. At least she makes it a plea rather than a command for all non-Trump-loyalists to “get out,” rather than dreaming up summary executions and internment camps.

“This defamation lawsuit is about MS Now (formerly, MSNBC) using sham ‘anonymous’ sources to push knowingly or recklessly false allegations that Alexis Wilkins, through her relationship with FBI Director Kash Patel, abused FBI resources. Defendants are, of course, free to comment on the leadership of the FBI and its allocation of resources, whether positively or negatively. They are not, however, entitled to lie about it. Defendants falsely asserted that Ms Wilkins demanded, and Director Patel ordered, that federal agents assigned to her security detail – which did not even exist at the time – escort an intoxicated friend home after a ‘night of partying.’ They falsely portrayed Ms Wilkins as being intoxicated even knowing that she does not drink. Defendants presumed they could get away with this fiction by citing to ‘anonymous sources,’ disingenuously claiming ‘nonpublic’ and ‘inside’ knowledge. This was hogwash and they knew it. Journalists cannot avoid accountability by hiding behind fabricated ‘anonymous’ sources. This lawsuit seeks to bring accountability for Defendants’ egregious lies,” says the intro to “country singer” Alexis Wilkins’s federal lawsuit against MS Now and its reporters for exposing the waste, fraud, and abuse of Bureau resources.

It’s not clear why Wilkins didn’t just have her boyfriend order a raid on MS Now headquarters.

The ayatollah’s goons have at least temporarily interrupted feckless weenies Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff’s ambitions to develop luxury housing in Tehran as CNN reports from Iranian state media that peace talks are on ice due to ongoing Israeli strikes against Iranian proxies in Lebanon.

“Given the continuation of the Israeli regime’s attacks in Lebanon, and considering that Lebanon had been one of the preconditions for a ceasefire – which has now been violated on all fronts, including Lebanon – the Iranian negotiating team is suspending ‘talks and exchanges of texts through mediators,'” sais a report from semi-official news agency Tasnim, adding the new objective is “a complete closure of the Strait of Hormuz and the activation of other fronts,” including the Red Sea.

“The New York Times wrote a story today entitled, ‘Trump Administration Sees Striking Exodus of Legal Talent,’ as though that’s a bad thing, when actually, it’s very good. The people that are leaving are Radical Left Deep State Lunatics, who are destroying our Country, and Weaponizing Government. Many of them didn’t leave, but were fired! The Failing New York Times writes this, but makes it sound like it’s a terrible thing when actually, it’s just the opposite. We want people that will, MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN, not people that are trying to destroy our Country, that were put in by Obama and Biden and, in many cases, they shouldn’t have been representing the U.S.A. in the first place. Let them go on to ‘bigger, better, and brighter’ things in the future – I fully support that, and wish them all well!” posted the fat bastard on Sunday afternoon.

“Ask any white liberal voter anywhere about their political priorities. They will tell you abortion, trans rights, migrant rights, and tax the billionaires. It’s never about education, filth, crime, economic growth, or more efficient government. They just don’t care about these things. That’s why it is so difficult to appeal these people” – Top comment on the Saturday Breitbart piece “Exclusive – Maine Gubernatorial Candidate Jonathan Bush: Voters Are ‘Sick to Death of the Current Governor'”

Good Lord that is the most generic MAGAbrainGPT load of shit that could’ve been pasted into any thread, no matter what the article said. Also lol at the “tax the billionaires” part, like that doesn’t poll well as a generalized statement universally or in the MAGAverse, who are supposed to be opposed to the plutocratic elites of the Republican Party like the Romneys, the Kochs, the Cheneys, etc.

And, of course, the Bushes. Now you miiiiight not have immediately registered it when it said “Jonathan Bush” in the headline given that, while not on the level of Smith or Goldberg or Lopez, it’s also far from the most distinctive or unique of surnames. There’s Heisman Trophy winner and later NFL star running back Reggie Bush, semi-popular TV actress Sophia Bush, former Dem Missouri Congresswoman Cori Bush, and famed 20th century physicist Vannevar Bush, just to name a few of the legitimately famous people with the nom-de-shrub with no close or meaningful relation – or any at all – to the 41st and 43rd presidents. However if you don’t click through then Maine should at least stick out given the Bush family’s long-established summer vacation base in Kennebunkport.

Henry McMaster told me himself personally, months ago, Pam was talking to him about making his son her Lt. Governor.

She’s lying again. Par for the course of someone willing to use totally fake videos to smear her opponents. She’s telling lots of lies to voters.

“South Carolina ain’t falling for it,” Mace wrote after the cutoff, a day after the Orange God Emperor endorsed “Pam” and further destroyed Nancy’s hopes of becoming governor.

“I understand Artists are getting ‘the yips’ having to do with their performance on Wednesday, so I am thinking about bringing the Number One Attraction anywhere in the World, the man who gets much larger audiences than Elvis in his prime, and he does so without a guitar, the man who loves our Country more than anyone else, and the man who some say is the Greatest President in History (THE GOAT!), DONALD J TRUMP, to take the place of these highly paid, Third Rate ‘Artists,’ and give a major speech, rallying the Country forward like I have done ever since being President! Two years ago, the United States was DEAD. Now we have the ‘HOTTEST’ Country anywhere in the World. I don’t want so-called ‘Artists’ that get paid far too much money, who aren’t happy. I only want to be surrounded by Happy People, Smart People, Successful People, and People that know how to WIN.”

“So, by copy of this TRUTH, I am ordering my Representatives to look at the feasibility of doing an AMERICA IS BACK Rally on Wednesday, Washington, DC, same time, same location. Only Great Patriots invited – It will be a Wild and Beautiful Celebration of America!” posted the YMCA’s number one fan on Saturday after the mass exodus of acts from the billing of the stupid America250 show.

A mediocre white man of very much average height and build on Saturday expressed an appropriate level of confidence that he and his cohort will prevail against major tribulations that, also appropriately, self-inflicted by their own mediocrity at leadership and example-setting. Notably the confidence displayed by the mediocre white man came in response to not-especially-tough questions from a mediocre white woman who presented no challenge to the man. Some may feel an impulse to ascribe his affect to what was once colloquially known as “mansplaining” – though in all likelihood the responses would have carried the same words and intonation had identical prompts came from another mediocre white man employed by the television network.

More to the point of what Mediocre Mike said, it was pretty goddamned hilarious how he didn’t really answer the question and it wasn’t really answerable in the first place: Not just because “Binder Barbie” would be calling Joe Manchin a “radical socialist” if he were running for Senate again, but that the headwinds for the GOP are the same whether the incoming Dem candidates are hard left or centrists or outright DINOs. Losing is still losing, but to a mediocre white man who will be just fine either way, no matter what happens in the midterms or Iran he can express all the confidence he wants for victories whose likelihoods are vanishingly remote as the clock ticks toward midnight.

Alaska man Dan Sullivan announced his bid for US Senate on Friday, running as a Republican to capture the seat currently held by US Senator Dan Sullivan, KTUU reports and the previous words in this sentence are obviously a problem for the already endangered incumbent who faces a very strong actual challenger in Democratic former Congresswoman Mary Peltola’s bid to unseat him.

Not-Senator Sullivan’s campaign website is more polished than you would think, complete with a glossy headshot that seems more than a little mismatched given the guy’s obvious decades of hard living. It’s not clear how much mileage there is in between this very obvious sandbagging and Peltola/establishment Dems nor what the state’s Republican leadership can do about it other than – per KTUU – add each Dan Sullivan’s middle initial to the ballot as Alaska law demands. Now-Washington Governor Bob Ferguson pretty quickly nixed the two assholes with the same name who tried to run against him two years ago, but he was the sitting state Attorney General at the time.

In a sign of how confident the Trump Regime is that they can actually convict former FBI Director James Comey in the batshit fucking stupid charge of making threats against the Orange God Emperor with the “8647” seashells, NBC News reports that Matthew Petracca, Assistant US Attorney for Eastern District North Carolina and the lead prosecutor on the case has quit the case.

And a few other ones he was working on, but it’s not clear if he’s quitting altogether. Maybe Petracca is worried that the case might not get tossed and he would actually have to stand in front of a jury and convince them that Comey was threatening to kill the fat orange slob.

“Shockingly, a Judge appointed by Barack Hussein Obama, Christopher Cooper, ruled that The Kennedy Center, which was going to close in early July for largescale renovations and construction due to years of neglect, decay, and poor maintenance, and which was to be transformed by the Trump Administration into the Finest Facility of its kind, anywhere in the World, is not allowed to close for these renovations, which would not be possible to properly do without such a closure.”

“Additionally, Judge Cooper ruled that the 36 Member Board of Trustees, which unanimously voted to add the name ‘TRUMP’ onto the former Kennedy Center, making it The Trump Kennedy Center, did not have the right to do such an addition, and the name, ‘TRUMP,’ must be removed. The Kennedy Center has lost, over the years, prior to our getting involved a short while ago, Hundreds of Millions of Dollars – In some cases, including ridiculous construction jobs that were done, over 100 Million Dollars a year. I took great pride in taking over a losing Institution, and looked forward to making it into a Great and Prestigious WINNER for Washington, DC, and indeed, the United States of America. Unfortunately, Judge Cooper and the Radical Left would rather see it DIE than have President Trump transform it into something that everyone could be proud of, much as I have done, in many cases, throughout my life, and recently, with all of the construction, renovations, and ‘fix ups’ that we have completed with the Department of Interior on Waterfalls, Fountains, Monuments, and other things of Beauty that we have brought back to life in a now SAFE AND SECURE, after Record Setting Crime, Washington, DC, which is thriving like, perhaps, never before!”

A DC federal judge on Friday ordered convicted felon President Trump to remove his name from Kennedy Center and to reopen the venue, finding that both were in clear violation of federal law.

“ORDERED that Plaintiff’s Motion for Preliminary Injunction is GRANTED in relevant part. It is further ORDERED that Defendants, together with their employees, agents, and anyone acting in concert with them, are hereby preliminarily ENJOINED from enforcing or implementing the John F Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts Board of Trustees’ March 16, 2026 decision to ‘wind-down’ programming and ‘close’ the Center’s ‘doors entirely effective July 5, 2026, for such time as is required to complete the repair and restoration funded by Section 60025 of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act.’ Defendants may not take steps to further effectuate the March 16 decision for the pendency of this action, or until the Board approves any closure consistent with the Court’s Opinion, and the Court issues a further Order dissolving or modifying this preliminary injunction,” wrote Judge Christopher Cooper and it’ll be interesting to see if Trump complies with the removal part.

“Iran must agree that they will never have a Nuclear Weapon or Bomb. The Hormuz Strait must be immediately open, no tolls, for unrestricted shipping traffic, in both directions. All water mines (bombs), if any, will be terminated (we have removed, through detonation, numerous such mines with our great underwater mine sweepers. Iran will complete the immediate removal and/or detonation of any mines that are left, which will not be many!). Ships caught in the Strait due to our amazing and unprecedented Naval Blockade, which will now be lifted, may start the process of ‘heading home!’ Say HELLO to your wives, husbands, parents, and families from me, your favorite President!” posted convicted felon President Trump on Friday, pre-demanding gratitude from troops who wouldn’t even be there in the first place if not for him getting worked by two-bit hustler “Bibi.”

Troops and sailors that he also hasn’t actually allowed to go back home to their families yet.

“The enriched material, sometimes referred to as ‘Nuclear Dust,’ which is buried deep underground with virtually collapsed mountains, caused by our powerful B2 Bomber attack 11 months ago, sitting on top of it, will be unearthed by the United States (which, it is agreed, is the only Country, along with China, with the mechanical capability of doing so!), in close coordination and conjunction with the Islamic Republic of Iran, plus the International Atomic Energy Agency, and DESTROYED. No money will be exchanged, until further notice. Other items, of far less importance, have been agreed to. I will be meeting now, in the Situation Room, to make a final determination,” the fat bastard continued as if Iran simply renaming it the “Strait of Trump” wouldn’t be more than enough.

Ryan Fournier, the very Hitler Youth-esque co-founder of very Hitler Youth-esque organization Students for Trump is, unsurprisingly, a piece of shit with women and is now facing charges for a Monday night incident in DC when he attacked a woman he’s been dating after she woke him up from a drunken stupor as he was passed out on the floor, the Guardian reports Fournier’s non-first rodeo with alcohol nor domestic assault-related run-ins with a justice system right-wingers revere.

Until, you know, when they come in contact with it. “Don’t touch me, woman!”, screamed Fournier according to a police report “Do you want me to crush your head in with this lamp?”

The 30 year-old Fournier’s roommate in the luxury apartment, identified only as “Witness” in the police report, then tried to intervene: “[Witness] returned to the office where [Fournier] was swinging a handheld vacuum around, screaming at [Victim]. [Witness] got between the two attempting to separate both parties. [Witness] said that he went to the bathroom and heard [Fournier] yelling, ‘Do you want to die today?’ [Victim] ran into the bathroom, and according to [Witness], ‘looked like she had been punched in the face.’ [Witness] called 911, and [Fournier] left the apartment, during this time [Victim] said to [Witness], ‘Don’t let him stab me,'” the cops wrote.

Fournier is due in court on July 7th, evidently not important enough for alcoholic DC US Attorney Jeanine “Judge Box-o-Wine” Pirro to bury this like her predecessor “Eagle Ed” Martin did for Cory Mills last year. Fournier’s not a star. When you’re a star they let you do anything you want.

“Before the Court is plaintiffs’ Expedited Motion for Briefing Schedule (‘Expedited Motion’), which requests an expedited briefing and hearing schedule for its pending Motion for Temporary Restraining Order, Or in the Alternative, a Preliminary Injunction with Expedited Briefing and for a Stay Under 5 USC § 705. Defendants oppose this Motion, requesting additional time to respond.”

“Because full briefing of the issue will enhance the ability of the Court to make a sound decision. Plaintiffs’ Expedited Motion, is DENIED and defendants’ request for additional time is GRANTED; however, to ensure that no funds are irreversibly disbursed from the AntiWeaponization Fund (hereinafter, ‘Fund’) while plaintiffs’ Motion is pending, it is hereby ORDERED that defendants be and are ENJOINED from taking any further action pursuant to the creation or operation of the Anti-Weaponization Fund, which includes the transferring of money to the Fund; the consideration of any claims submitted to the Fund; and the disbursing of any funds from the Fund,” says a Friday order from Virginia federal Judge Leonie Brinkema, setting a June 12 hearing on next steps in Andrew Floyd, et al v Department of Justice, et al. Floyd is a former federal prosecutor who worked a shit ton of January 6th cases, he’s joined by co-plaintiffs watchdog group Common Cause, some professor from University of California Channel Islands, the National Abortion Federation, and the City of New Haven, Connecticut. Could not even begin to imagine the standing they collectively have.

In a different legal setback for the Trump Regime, former President Joe Biden’s lawsuit to halt the release of his memoir tapes was assigned to DC Federal Judge Tanya S Chutkan on Friday.

An old, but apt fable:

Continued Cornhole as he mourned his own political death at the hands of Lord Donald: “The frog hesitates, afraid that the scorpion might sting it, but the scorpion promises not to, pointing out that it would drown if it killed the frog in the middle of the river. The frog considers this argument sensible and agrees to transport the scorpion. Midway across the river, the scorpion stings the frog anyway, dooming them both. The dying frog asks the scorpion why it stung despite knowing the consequence, to which the scorpion replies: ‘I am sorry, but I couldn’t help myself. It’s my character.'”
