In commentary that you did not need to squint very hard to see as a frank admission that his interviews of convicted felon former President Trump are propaganda exercises rather than even pretending to be anything resembling “journalism,” Fox News meathead Sean Hannity on Wednesday didn’t really have any specific complaints about the premise of “MSDNC” anchor Stephanie Ruhle’s interview with Vice President Kamala Harris, even if the graphic kind of said otherwise.
Due this afternoon, Justice Department special counsel Jack Smith’s team’s 180 page filing outlining the evidence against convicted felon former President Trump in the long-stalled DC post-2020 election coup conspiracy case will, because we can’t have nice things, be under seal and out of the public view for as long as Judge Tanya Chutkan deems necessary due to rules surrounding grand jury secrecy, Politico reports on yet another disappointment for anti-MAGAs.
One would hope that, given the amount of time this has all taken, and Smith’s team already knew at least about a week ago, exactly how long the filing is, the prosecutors have already marked which testimony, exhibits, etc, might fall under the secrecy rules and already have them marked, so that it’s just a matter of flipping through the pages to decide which ones to enter into the public docket.
A remote zoo in northern Finland will deport two pandas back to China far ahead of their scheduled 2033 return due to the cost of their care exceeding what the zoo can afford these days, the BBC reports. Marko Haapakoski, curator at Ähtäri Zoo, said the €1.5 million annual upkeep for Lumi and Pyry was “much more than all the other species combined,” as they needed imported bamboo and a licensing fee to the Chinese government, who also required a keeper to be with them 24/7.
Deporting the pandas is “a good thing for the zoo because they were so expensive,” but the pandas had been “doing really well, so it’s a pity”, said Haapakoski. “They’re really nice to work with.”
“If I’m charged, I know I’m innocent, and I will request an immediate trial so New Yorkers can hear the truth,” rumored-to-be-indicted Democratic New York Mayor Eric Adams says sincerely into the camera before his lawyers start a series of delaying maneuvers to prevent information from becoming public. Adams reportedly faces a variety of federal charges relating to corrupt dealings with foreign governments, making Adams an obvious sacrificial lamb along with former New Jersey Democratic Senator Bob Menendez who faces charges to fool people into think Biden has weaponized the Justice Department solely against his political enemies.
An eleven-nation coalition led by the United States has called for a three-week ceasefire in the fighting between Hezbollah and Israel in Lebanon, the Associated Press reports, pushing for a de-escalation of violence and an opportunity to broaden peace talks in the region.
“We call for an immediate 21-day cease-fire across the Lebanon-Israel border to provide space for diplomacy,” the statement reads. “We call on all parties, including the Governments of Israel and Lebanon, to endorse the temporary cease-fire immediately,” adding “We are then prepared to fully support all diplomatic efforts to conclude an agreement between Lebanon and Israel within this period, building on efforts over the last months, that ends this crisis altogether,”
The statement, negotiated while diplomats are in New York for the UN General Assembly, was signed by officials from the US and eleven European allies, comes after some unknown organization undertook covert attacks on Hezbollah leaders through explosives in pagers and walkie-talkies.
A federal grand jury on Wednesday indicted New York City Mayor Eric Adams on unspecified corruption charges, the New York Times reports, citing three sources familiar with the matter. It’s not clear when the indictment will be unsealed, but take your pick of what this jackass is going to be nailed for – accepting campaign funds from Turkey, whatever the hell the now-former NYPD Commissioner was in on, or something else entirely. Or some combination thereof.
A woman who joined a neo-Nazi to plan an attack to take out the electrical grid around Baltimore by attacking transfer stations was sentenced to 18 years in prison on Wednesday, more than the term recommended by federal prosecutors, WMAR ABC-2 in Baltimore reports.
Working with neo-Nazi Brandon Clint Russell, a Florida man, whom she met while both were in prison, 36-year-old Sarah Beth Clendaniel cooperated with investigators in Russell’s prosecution. In February 2023, the pair planned to use guns and explosives to take a number of BGE power stations offline, a plan that could have knocked out power for more than a million people in and around Baltimore.
“Those who seek to attack our country’s critical infrastructure will face the full force of the United States Department of Justice,” said Attorney General Merrick B. Garland. “Sarah Beth Clendaniel sought to ‘completely destroy’ the city of Baltimore by targeting five power substations as a means of furthering her violent white supremacist ideology. She will now spend the next 18 years in federal prison. The Justice Department will continue to aggressively counter, disrupt, and prosecute those who seek to launch these kinds of hate-fueled attacks that target our critical infrastructure, endanger entire cities, and threaten our national security.”
Higgins stands by his hatred
Racist Louisiana MAGA Congressman Clay Higgins on Wednesday told CNN that, contrary to Jesus Dork Speaker Mike Johnson’s claim that Higgins was somehow contrite for posting a bunch or hateful shit about Haitians, he stood by his comments. “It’s all true,” Higgins said of his tweet calling Haitian Americans pet eaters and “slapstick gangsters” into voodoo. “I can put up another controversial post tomorrow if you want me to. I mean, we do have freedom of speech.”
“I’ll say what I want. It’s not a big deal to me. It’s like something stuck to the bottom of my boot. Just scrape it off and move on with my life,” the former cop suspected of brutality continued.
North Carolina Lt Gov Mark Robinson’s other staff, the ones on the public payroll of the lieutenant gubernatorial office, have followed their counterparts on the Nazi porn freak’s campaign staff, WRAL reports. Top advisor Brian LiVecchi, comms director John Wesley Waugh, policy director Jonathan Harris, and Director of Government Affairs Nathan Lewis are all either gone or soon will be.
“Clay Higgins is a dear friend”
Sinner Michael, thou shalt not bear false witness. You definitely fucking saw what Higgins had posted and “prayer” doesn’t make his hateful bloodlust against Haitian Americans right.
“The environment appears primed for significant strengthening while Helene moves across the Gulf of Mexico. The forecast track more or less runs along the axis of the Loop Current during the next 24 hours, where ocean temperatures are about 30 degrees Celsius. In addition, Helene will be moving through an environment of low vertical shear and strong upper-level divergence. Some of the Rapid Intensification (RI) indices, particular DTOPS, respond to this environment by indicating at least a 90 percent chance of a 35-kt increase in intensity over the next 24 hours. The NHC intensity forecast now shows an intensity of 115 kt (Category 4) at 24 hours, which is mirrored by several of the regional hurricane models and the SHIPS guidance. It should be noted that additional strengthening is possible beyond 24 hours before Helene makes landfall Thursday evening. ”
“Helene is forecast to be a large major hurricane when it reaches the Big Bend coast of Florida. As a result, storm surge, wind, and rainfall impacts will extend well away from the center and outside the forecast cone, particularly on the east side. In addition, the fast forward speed when Helene moves inland will result in a far inland penetration of strong winds over parts of the southeastern United States, including strong gusts over higher terrain of the southern Appalachians. A higher-than-normal gust factor has been indicated in the official forecast while Helene is inland,” says a National Hurricane Center forecast advisory for Hurricane Helene. This one’s no joke.
Scalise kills censure of Higgins
House Majority Leader Steve Scalise was in no mood to entertain a censure of fellow MAGA racist Louisiana Congressman Clay Higgins, blocking a motion from Nevada Dem Steven Horsford because Higgins had already deleted his tweet cruelly badmouthing Haitian Americans for “Eating pets, vudu, nastiest country in the western hemisphere, cults, slapstick gangsters. All these thugs better get their mind right and their ass out of our country before January 20th.”
“First of all, the tweet has been deleted already…And if we want to go through everything the other side has said we willbe happy do it!” Scalise said, defending Higgins.
In a new set of findings published Wednesday from the NBC News national survey originally posted on Sunday, just 4 percent of respondents approve of convicted felon former President Trump’s Project 2025 plan to end American democracy and create a theofascist police state, while 57 percent disapprove of it. The findings overall suggest that Dems did a solid job of spreading awareness of the plot and maximally leveraging it against the fat fuck.
House kicks can to December 20th
The House of Representatives on Wednesday passed 341 to 82 a three month continuing resolution to fund the federal government, kicking the can down the road to December 20th.
One of the most racist and bigoted posts I’ve seen from a fellow member of Congress. And from his official government account at that. Disgusting. pic.twitter.com/BpoLxVr9jj

Since some of Higgins’ tweet may be cut off, here’s the whole of what he wrote: “Lol. These Haitians are wild. Eating pets, vudu, nastiest country in the western hemisphere, cults, slapstick gangsters… but damned if they don’t feel all sophisticated now, filing charges against our President and VP. All these thugs better get their mind right and their ass out of our country before January 20th.”
AOC calls on Eric Adams to resign
In a statement to the New York Times, Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez on Wednesday called on corrupt idiot Mayor Eric Adams to hang it up, saying “The flood of resignations and vacancies are threatening government function. Nonstop investigations will make it impossible to recruit and retain a qualified administration. For the good of the city, he should resign.”
Jesus Dork Speaker of the House Mike Johnson on Wednesday sent a letter to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky demanding that he “immediately fire Ukraine’s Ambassador to the United States, Oksana Markarova. As you have said, Ukrainians have tried to avoid being ‘captured by American domestic politics,’ and ‘influencing the choices of the American people’ ahead of the November election. Clearly that objective was abandoned this week when Ambassador Markarova organized an event in which you toured an American manufacturing site. The facility was in a politically contested battleground state, was led by a top political surrogate for Kamala Harris, and failed to include a single Republican because on purpose no Republicans were invited.”
“The tour was clearly a partisan campaign event designed to help Democrats and is clearly election interference. This shortsighted and intentionally political move has caused Republicans to lose trust in Ambassador Markarova’s ability to fairly and effectively serve as a diplomat in this country. She should be removed from her post immediately. Additionally, as I have clearly stated in the past, all foreign nations should avoid opining on or interfering in American domestic politics. Support for ending Russia’s war against Ukraine continues to be bipartisan, but our relationship is unnecessarily tested and needlessly tarnished when the candidates at the top of the Republican presidential ticket are targeted in the media by officials in your government. These incidents cannot be repeated.”
“Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter, and I trust you will take immediate action,” the letter concluded. This is where we point out again that the previous administration demanded that Zelensky interfere in a presidential election by announcing a fake investigation into Hunter Biden.
Vice President Kamala Harris will deliver a speech outlining her economic policy proposals at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania on Wednesday.
In an interview stretched out to at least 10 or so articles on the right wing propaganda site, convicted felon former President Trump tells Breitbart that if Vice President Kamala Harris “has a gun, she should say what kind of a gun,” and “It means she’s been lying about guns… It was just done because she’s trying to convince people she doesn’t want to confiscate guns.” The fat bastard was clearly annoyed that Harris owns a gun and told tens of millions of voters during their debate.
Senate Finance Committee Chair Ron Wyden on Tuesday pretty much outright accused former Trump White House “advisor” and son-in-law Jared Kushner’s shell company, Affinity Partners, of running “a compensation scheme involving US political figures designed to circumvent the Foreign Agents Registration Act,” by taking at least $3 billion from Saudi Prince Mohammed Bonesaw, his country’s sovereign wealth fund, the Qatar and the United Arab Emirates’ sovereign wealth funds, and Taiwanese billionaire Terry Gou, and “a sixth mystery foreign investor Affinity has declined to identify,” for which Kush and Crew collected $157 million in fees for the hard work.
The return? A staggering $0 as of July 2024. “Affinity’s investors may not be motivated by commercial considerations, but rather the opportunity to funnel foreign government money to members of President Trump’s family, namely Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump,” Wyden wrote to CEO Chad Mizelle, who may or may not be a community college dropout recruited from a local Best Buy’s car audio installation team to serve as Kushner’s front man for the money laundering scheme.
Well doesn’t House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer look stupid for saying “Jared Kushner actually has a legitimate business. This money to the Bidens happened while Joe Biden was vice president, while he was flying to those countries,” last year? Bet he’s real mad at Kushner now, right?
