Rob and I remained good friends ever since we made GHOSTS OF MISSISSIPPI. The studio didn’t think I was old enough to do the part, but Rob fought for me. Political differences never stood in the way of our love and respect for each other. I am devastated by this terrible event. https://t.co/eL1lurqyzV

The suspect arrested in the Saturday mass shooting at Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island, has been released and local cops are blaming the FBI led by incompetent idiot Director K$H Patel, NBC News reports. “It was actually picked up by the FBI and they followed through with it and they ended up coming and locating this individual of interest,” said Providence Police Department Chief Colonel Oscar Perez at a press conference on Sunday night.

A JetBlue flight departing from the Dutch Carribbean island of Curacao bound for New York’s JFK was forced to halt its ascent on Friday after it nearly collided with a US Air Force tanker supporting patrols off the coast of Venezuela, the AP reports on what sounds like another near-DEI disaster.

“We almost had a midair collision up here,” the JetBlue pilot told Curacao air traffic control “They passed directly in our flight path… They don’t have their transponder turned on, it’s outrageous.”

“We just had traffic pass directly in front of us within 5 miles of us – maybe 2 or 3 miles – but it was an air-to air-refueler from the United States Air Force and he was at our altitude,” the pilot continued. “We had to stop our climb.” The pilot said the Air Force plane then headed into Venezuelan air space, per the recording. No comment from the Pentagon in the AP’s article.

“Over half of all Americans (53 percent) said they trust the Democratic Party over the Republican Party (47 percent) when it comes to handling the rising price of everyday things,” says the final paragraph of NBC News’s reporting on their own monthly national survey, which is, uh, not an issue the party had the corner on last year. In fact you could say they suffered the worst defeat in history because of that issue and their inability to lie about it like the other party did so freely.

Ughhhh, seriously fuck this “The grass is greener on the other side” shit. Republicans win, they fuck everything up, Dems get elected. A trans swimmer wins 5th place in the NCAA final, inflation spikes, a white girl gets murdered by a Venezuelan scumbag, Republicans win. We’re now back in the “fuck everything up” phase of this cycle again. Wash, rinse, repeat, all thanks to the lovely goldfish brained voters of Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin.

The gunman who killed at least two people and wounded another nine at Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island is in custody about 12 hours after convicted felon President Trump stupidly and recklessly claimed there had been an arrest effected, NBC’s Tom Winter reports.

Nine victims are dead along with one gunman in a shooting at Sydney, Australia’s Bondi Beach on Sunday – a massacre that coincided with the city’s local “Chanukah by the Sea” celebration in the vicinity, though officials have yet to confirm that it was indeed the target – the AP reports.

Of course it was the target, but authorities in other countries tend to be weird about the details of certain incidents. They did however mention that another suspect was shot and arrested at the scene of the attack – and that a number of suspicious items were recovered.

Steve McQueen. Car chase. Action. Violence. San Francisco. Shooting. Bullets. Bullitt. Awesome.

“We mourn the loss of three Great American Patriots in Syria, two soldiers, and one Civilian Interpreter. Likewise, we pray for the three injured soldiers who, it has just been confirmed, are doing well. This was an ISIS attack against the US, and Syria, in a very dangerous part of Syria, that is not fully controlled by them. The President of Syria, Ahmed al-Sharaa, is extremely angry and disturbed by this attack. There will be very serious retaliation,” posted convicted felon President Trump on Saturday, a year after he campaigned on Biden being a reckless idiot with no regard for soldiers’ lives. And two days after he said “We actually do have a real peace in the Middle East.”

The shooting occurred at the gate of a US military outpost near Palmyra, the AP reports. Donald later told reporters This was an ISIS attack… we will retaliate,” as he left for the Army-Navy game.

He later posted “Getting ready to land at Fort McHenry for my short drive to the Army-Navy Game. Everyone is asking who am I supporting, Army or Navy? My answer is: ‘You must be joking if you think I’m going to answer!'” Very sensitive. Might’ve well have said “Go Losers! Beat Suckers!”

If, before Tuesday, you were one of the likely tens, maybe dozens, of hardcore MAGA voters who reads Axios regularly it’s hard to see how you’re still on board on Saturday as you were not at all reading what you wanted to be reading from them. This week was bad, very bad, and bad in an array of unique ways requiring a roundup summary to fully capture this December of GOP sadness:

Start with this list of bullet points literally headlined “Scoop: Trump aides bullish on Supreme Court boosting GOP in midterms,” from Tuesday in which two of convicted felon President Trump’s top minions, former 2024 campaign manager Chris LaCivita and pollster Tony Fabrizio, told the audience at an RNC donor retreat in New Orleans last weekend that rulings “on political contribution limits and congressional redistricting could be transformational for Republicans – if they go the GOP’s way” as their hard sell to get the donors to write the party some big checks to cover their 2026 bills.

First off, lol at an Axios article reporting what was said at an RNC donor retreat. Way to make sure that the marginally poorer GOP donors who weren’t invited to the bacchanal got the memo on the strategy. Then there’s that the memo itself is “the Supreme Court could come though for us big on these rulings,” and not like, “the White House and Congressional GOP have this bold new plan to address voter concerns about the economy and cost of living, so this is worth your investment to help us maintain the majorities,” or even just “Hey, we’re focus grouping the best propaganda campaign ever, it blows the doors off of caravans, rainbow fentanyl in Halloween candy, and trans kids playing girls’ sports. Spoiler alert: SOROS is the main villain. MAGA voters HATE Soros!”

Next there’s the anticipated rulings themselves: What the hell gerrymandering decision are they counting on besides the potential VRA overturn opening the door to killing something like 10 to 12 Black-majority districts in the Deep South? Even if it is gutted it’s extremely unlikely to come in time for the 2026 midterms. Beyond that the court already this month strongly hinted the country’s a free-fire zone on partisan redistricting going forward in the ruling greenlighting Texas’s MAGA gerrymander and won’t block the ones favoring Dems, mainly California’s Proposition 50.

In case you missed it, convicted felon President Trump on Friday afternoon posted that he “had a very good conversation this morning with the Prime Minister of Thailand, Anutin Charnvirakul, and the Prime Minister of Cambodia, Hun Manet, concerning the very unfortunate reawakening of their long-running War. They have agreed to CEASE all shooting effective this evening,” blah blah blah.

Charnvirakul missed it too, writing “Thailand will continue to perform military actions until we feel no more harm and threats to our land and people. I want to make it clear” in a Facebook post on Saturday as the firing has most certainly not ceased, with Cambodian forces launching rockets a homes in villages on the Thai side of the border, injuring at least four civilians, two of them critically.

That came after Thai Air Force F-16s bombed a hotel and a bridge in Cambodia. “Thailand is still firing. How can we have a ceasefire?” said Cambodian man Un Saruon, who woke up 6 AM local time Saturday to the sound of shells being fired over the border about nine miles away from his home. “I don’t think the war will stop soon. The word ‘ceasefire’ is only coming from Mr Trump,” Un added.

“Republicans in the Indiana State Senate, who voted against a Majority in the US House of Representatives, should be ashamed of themselves. Headed by a total loser named Rod Bray, every one of these people should be ‘primaried,’ and I will be there to help! Indiana, which I won big, is the only state in the Union to do this!” posted convicted felon President Trump at 12:52 AM on Saturday, vowing to spend part of the next year campaigning in 21 Indiana state Senate GOP primaries.

This is, uh, not a good look for Karoline Leavitt. Her brother’s ex-fiancee Bruna Carolina Ferreira, mother to Karoline’s nephew/godson, is not at all the stereotype of a pugnacious Latina that the Trump Regime tried to make her sound like after she was tossed in the gulag. Hell her accent itself, 110 percent American, was kinda jarring. She’s just a lovely, strong woman going through some unbelievably awful shit for no good reason at all – while Karoline’s team fucking lied about her.

And Bruna still hasn’t been able to see her son since she was released.

A push notification reading “LATEST: Newly released docs reveal former Obama White House counsel repeatedly communicated with Jeffrey Epstein” was sent to users of the hardcore MAGA platform Truth Social on Friday, linking to a post by some right wing influencer account.

“Jeffrey Epstein files reveal a woman named Kathy Ruemmler was one of the people who had the most communication with Epstein. Over 100 emails and more than 50 meetings in just 5 years after he was a convicted sex offender. She was White House counsel to Barack Obama,” wrote “Citizen Free Press,” in the post. Wow, this means Reummler was connected to a notorious sex trafficker.

That’s really bad. She should be held accountable by the media and put on the spot to spill what she knew about Epstein’s atrocities against over a thousand girls and young women over the years and when she knew it. This should be a full court press of relentless scrutiny. No sleep for Reummler.

Senior Pentagon official Eric Geressy, who seems to have been now-Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth’s superior officer during their service in the Iraq War as Petey Pee Pants refers to him as a “mentor,” sure got upset when a Mother Jones reporter asked him why his “GoodReads” page included books about “Asian wife sharing,” another one titled “Asian Wife Went With Her Dad’s Friend: A Cuckold Story,” and also one about “ladyboys,” all alongside two books by Hegseth.

The page was deleted the day after the reporter, Dan Friedman, asked Geressy to comment on it. So yeah it was probably Geressy’s. The story includes Hegseth attempting to sic Pizzagate asshole Jack Posobiec on Friedman about his own personal life if he did not relent but obviously MJ ended up printing it – and also included hints about domestic abuse allegations and other degeneracy.

A Clackamas County, Oregon grand jury has found that a local sheriff’s deputy was justified in non-fatally shooting 44 year-old Daniel Zimmerman as she responded to a mental health/possible arson call at his home last month because, even though he wasn’t carrying a firearm, the way he ran at the deputy while holding his pants up with one hand behind his back made it look like he was getting ready to pull one, OregonLive.com reports on a pretty embarrassing fashion mishap.

It also didn’t help that Zimmerman was shouting “loudly and aggressively” as he charged toward the deputy, or that he was trying to set a utility trailer on fire when she and a state trooper responded to Zimmerman’s father’s call. Simultaneous to getting shit, Zimmerman was tased by the state trooper.

How much does Harvard charge these day to learn how to report bullshit?

On Friday the RNC tweeted the above “full context” to do some damage control after the Bulwark’s Andrew Egger printed the following collection of quotes from national party chair Joe Gruters during recent interviews on AM conservative talk radio shows: “It’s not a secret. There’s no sugarcoating it, it’s a pending, looming disaster heading our way,” “We are facing almost certain defeat,” “The chances are Republicans will go down and will go down hard,” and “You hit the nail on the head. This is an absolute disaster. No matter what party is in power, they usually get crushed in the midterms.”

“A new study has revealed that two top ocean predators – northern resident killer whales and Pacific white-sided dolphins – join forces to find and feast on salmon off BC, with the first video of its kind showing the two species hunting for food and suggesting they have forged a co-operative relationship that may provide mutual benefits. The paper, published today in the journal Scientific Reports, was undertaken by researchers from UBC, Dalhousie University, the Leibniz Institute and the Hakai Institute, and shows that these interactions are not just chance encounters.”

“Instead, the species appear to be working together to hunt Chinook salmon in waters off BC, where they are often seen within metres of each other. ‘We’ve long known that resident killer whales interact with Pacific white-sided dolphins, but seeing them dive and hunt in sync with dolphins completely changes our understanding of what those encounters mean,’ said lead author Dr Sarah Fortune, Canadian Wildlife Federation Chair in Large Whale Conservation and asst professor in Dalhousie’s oceanography department. ‘Our footage shows that killer whales and dolphins may actually be cooperating to find and share prey – something never before documented in this population,'” said the University of British Columbia’s Science Department in a press release.

Form a Thursday Facebook post by the Palatka, Florida Police Department: “Earlier today, a live hand grenade was discovered inside a donation bin at Goodwill (103 S State Road 19). The Palatka Police Department responded immediately, secured the scene, and evacuated the building out of an abundance of caution. The St Johns County Sheriff’s Office Bomb Squad was then requested to assist, and the device was safely retrieved and remotely detonated in a secure location.”

“We want to remind the community to thoroughly check all items before donating, ensuring that hazardous items, such as explosives, firearms, or ammunition, are not accidentally included. If you ever locate something that appears to be a hand grenade or other explosive device, do not touch or handle it. Immediately evacuate the area and call law enforcement. Thank you for your cooperation in helping keep our community safe,” the post continued preachily rather than praising the generosity of the patriot who wanted to give another Floridian access to a means of self-defense.

In a clip to short justify pasting in here, House Oversight Ranking Dem Robert Garcia told reporters that “Some of the other photos” from Direty Jeff’s estate “that we did not put out today are incredibly disturbing,” though he did not specify if they involved Jeff’s best bud.
