A brave anonymous House Republican bitched to former Politico reporter turned Substacker Rachel Bade about Jesus Dork Speaker Mike Johnson and his team’s “feckless leadership” over the Tony Gonzales affair and horrific suicide shitshow. “It’s very clear a decision was made that they wanted this to go away and brushed it under the rug because of the margin,” said the member.

Another believes Johnson probably knew about it before texts Gonzales sent staffer Regina Santos-Aviles were made public last week. “Now it’s coming home to roost,” said the member, adding it was all “hush-hush” and there was no internal movement with Johnson and his team to push Gonzales into at least dropping his reelection bid. “There was no intention of pulling out support for Gonzales had this not become public,” and now they’re going to be stuck with Brandon Herrera.

Convicted felon President Trump’s regime needs time to tack on another 5 percent to their 10 percent global tariff imposition now that the fat bastard cannot unilaterally make changes on a whim, NBC reports on another clash between the fat bastard’s reality and actual reality.

DC US Attorney Jeanine “Judge Box-o-Wine” Pirro has abandoned her efforts to seek an indictment against the “Seditious Six” – Senators Mark Kelly and Elissa Slotkin, and Representatives Maggie Goodlander, Jason Crow, Chris Deluzio, and Chrissy Houlahan – the military/CIA veterans whose November video “Don’t Give Up the Ship,” reminding service members of their duty to disobey illegal orders caused a fucking meltdown in the MAGA Reich, NBC News reports on another embarrassing failure for the regime that should actually piss off the fanboys but per usual they’ll just let it slide.

Meanwhile Speaker Mike Johnson is, for obvious reasons, not really on board with pushing Tony Gonzales out of the House early, telling CNN on Monday that he “endorsed Tony before all these allegations came out. They’re obviously very serious, and I’ve spoken with him and he’s got to address that in an appropriate way with his constituents and all of that. So it’s too early for anybody to prejudge any of that, but we’ll see how it develops.” The woman freaking set herself on fire.

Cops with the London Metropolitan Police on Monday cuffed former US Ambassador to the US Peter Mandelson on “suspicion of misconduct in public office,” the same charge the Andrew formerly known as Prince was hit with last week when he too was arrested over his connections with Dirty Jeff, Sky News reports. Thus with that former Norwegian Prime Minister makes for three more than the zero Americans named in the Epstein files being prosecuted since December 19th.

National Zero commenters, as they are wont to do, nailed it again when they en masse responded to last week’s article “Fox News reports ‘Christian mother’ murdered in Ohio,” with dozens posting “The husband did it” or similar underneath what was a media criticism of the propaganda network’s Monday, February 16th headline “Christian mother, teacher found dead as police hunt homicide suspect in Ohio home invasion,” focused much more on MAGA identity politics than the crime itself.

But yes, they nailed it as Fox on Friday reported under the headline “Fmr American Idol contestant, husband of Ohio teacher charged with wife’s murder after she was found in home,” following Caleb Flynn’s arrest on a single count of murder, two counts of felonious assault with a deadly weapon, and two counts of tampering with evidence for shooting wife Ashley in the head while she slept at some point after midnight on the 17th. Maybe it was a stretch to expect that the follow-up would somehow say “Christian dad charged with wife’s murder after she was found in home,” but somehow the “Former American Idol contestant” identifier becoming the primary focus of a depraved femicide is even more grotesquely on-brand for the state media outlet than the hyping up of Ashley’s faith.

Nothing like invoking the horrific 2024 rape and murder of Laken Riley to turn things around politically for the regime. Plus American citizens Renee Good, Alex Pretti, and Ruben Ray Martinez getting shot to death like dogs in the street was what she would have wanted, right?

“Any Country that wants to ‘play games’ with the ridiculous supreme court decision, especially those that have “Ripped Off” the USA for years, and even decades, will be met with a much higher Tariff, and worse, than that which they just recently agreed to. BUYER BEWARE!!!” posted convicted felon President Trump on Monday, maintaining message discipline by lowercasing “supreme court.”

There was a little less of it in his next one, as he then screamed “As President, I do not have to go back to Congress to get approval of Tariffs. It has already been gotten, in many forms, a long time ago! They were also just reaffirmed by the ridiculous and poorly crafted supreme court decision!”

The decision can’t exactly both be bullshit and also make him more powerful. He’s gotta choose one.

“Judge Cannon has permanently blocked the release of Jack Smith’s classified documents report, saying it would be unfair to Trump and his former co-defendants to release it,” tweeted Politico’s Kyle Cheney on Monday, copied verbatim here given how succinctly it captures Cannon’s persona.

These numbers really are fucking bad. You can be inured to polling, unimpressed by the fat fuck’s still-ongoing downward slide and yet it still remains that the numbers themselves are worse than Joe Biden’s were even during his worst stretches. To be 47 percent in the hole with independent voters is probably starting to approach George W Bush’s approval in like Fall 2008.

“The supreme court (will be using lower case letters for a while based on a complete lack of respect!) of the United States accidentally and unwittingly gave me, as President of the United States, far more powers and strength than I had prior to their ridiculous, dumb, and very internationally divisive ruling. For one thing, I can use Licenses to do absolutely ‘terrible’ things to foreign countries, especially those countries that have been RIPPING US OFF for many decades, but incomprehensibly, according to the ruling, can’t charge them a License fee – BUT ALL LICENSES CHARGE FEES, why can’t the United States do so? You do a license to get a fee! The opinion doesn’t explain that, but I know the answer! The court has also approved all other Tariffs, of which there are many, and they can all be used in a much more powerful and obnoxious way, with legal certainty, than the Tariffs as initially used. Our incompetent supreme court did a great job for the wrong people, and for that they should be ashamed of themselves (but not the Great Three!)”

“The next thing you know they will rule in favor of China and others, who are making an absolute fortune on Birthright Citizenship, by saying the 14th Amendment was NOT written to take care of the ‘babies of slaves,’ which it was as proven by the EXACT TIMING of its construction, filing, and ratification, which perfectly coincided with the END OF THE CIVIL WAR. How much better can you do than that? But this supreme court will find a way to come to the wrong conclusion, one that again will make China, and various other Nations, happy and rich. Let our supreme court keep making decisions that are so bad and deleterious to the future of our Nation – I have a job to do,” posted the big fat baby on Monday morning, still aggrieved over the judicial sorcerers in robes telling him no.

America, the land of entrepreneurship. Where a nine year-old Italian immigrant with a few bucks in his pocket can step off a boat and turn a humble olive oil importing business into a family empire of gambling operations and political consultation services. Where a semi-autistic kid from New Jersey can scrape his way into Harvard University and turn a coding project into an online community of aunts and uncles to share their theories about how that semi-autistic kid’s Jewish background makes him part of a global cabal of child-sacrificing Satanists. Where just a couple of dudes based out of a Houston WeWork can pitch the Trump Administration on taking a $25 billion slice of the $350 billion pledged by the Japanese government to buy their way out of tariffs, according to a new Politico story, on “Entra1 Energy,” which was founded in 2023 and has fewer than five employees.

The job is to build a nuclear reactor. A site for said reactor has not been selected yet.

You will not be surprised to learn that 21 year-old North Carolina man Austin Tucker Martin, shot dead this morning outside of Mar-a-Lago after pointing a shotgun at a Secret Service agent, was “a vocal supporter of Trump” who had become obsessed with the Epstein files, TMZ reports.

The US embassy in Mexico on Sunday ordered Americans in cities Tecate, Ensenada, and Tijuana, and in Jalisco, Tamaulipas, Michoacan, Guerrero, and Nuevo Leon states – which sounds like an awful lot of the country – to shelter in place after a Mexican operation killed cartel boss “El Mencho” in Puerto Vallarta, warning “Due to ongoing security operations and related road blockages and criminal activity, US citizens in the named locations should shelter in place until further notice.”

There are not a small number of Americans currently at resorts within view of plumes of smoke rising from ongoing battles between the government and cartel factions – and the Costco in Vallarta is on fire. CBS’s Jen Jacobs reports that the CIA knew this was coming and now US citizens are in the kind of danger in that State Department bulletin. This could get very, very, very ugly.

In the middle of a shitposting fight with MS Now’s Ken Dilanian this weekend, FBI house propagandist Ben Williamson wrote raged that the “rag outlet wrote that [Director K$H Patel] went to hang out at the Olympics on the taxpayer dime – even when provided information that your theory was false. When you’re ready to correct that let me know. Won’t hold my breath,” referring to the outlet’s reporting that Patel would be in Milan to engage in some official meetings on security ops protecting Americans in Milan as a pretext to watch ultimately successful Team USA’s medal run.

Then on Sunday anti-K$H former agent/podcaster Kyle Serpahin was watching center Dylan Larkin’s livestream from the locker room post-game and… aaaaaaaaaaaaaand… lol….

…don’t hold your breath on this one…

US Secret Service agents early Sunday shot and killed an armed man “unlawfully entering the secure perimeter” at convicted felon President Trump’s prostitution and corruption compound in Palm Beach, Florida, Fox News reports on a two-tier system of Second Amendment rights.

Oh and Democrats need to tone down the rhetoric. The media did this. This is the result of Biden’s open borders. Let’s jump to conclusions since we don’t have any info beyond that the man in his early 20s showed up with a shotgun and a gas can at 1:30 AM and was gunned down by agents.

Dirty Jeff’s accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell’s lawyers are trying to stop 90,000 pages of documents from a since-settled civil defamation lawsuit brought a decade ago by the late Epstein victim Virginia Giuffre against Maxwell, with the lawyers arguing the Epstein Files Transparency Act is somehow unconstitutional, the AP reports. The documents include transcripts of over 30 depositions and private information regarding financial and sexual matters related to Maxwell and others, pages they claim were improperly obtained by the DOJ during its investigation into Maxwell.
