Again, in case this caveat is necessary: Nobody with a soul lacks any moral clarity on the Nancy Guthrie situation, as brutalizing and abducting and old lady is especially cruel and depraved. Nor would they have any question about whether Gabby Petito’s fiancee Brian Laundrie was a fucking worm, even if there might be room for debate on whether his suicide subsequent to murdering her was the “right thing to do” – as well as the level to which Utah law enforcement failed her.

The failure itself is beyond question. That, coupled with Laundrie’s escape from being held accountable for his daughter’s murder also makes it perfectly reasonable for Joe Petito to want to continue sorting through his grief publicly now nearly five years later, without reproach.

All that out of the way… what the fuck? Why? You know when it was Laken Riley and other white women murdered by illegal immigrants at least the political agenda was clear as day, but seriously what the fuck? Not even the still-snow-clogged sidewalks and accumulating garbage outside their building in socialist Muslim supervillain Zohran Mamdani’s New York City to fill in some time would work for something “relatable” to ordinary viewers? Fox and Friends viewers wouldn’t be Fox and Friends viewers if they didn’t have a high tolerance for stupid bullshit and obsessive fixations but this Nancy Guthrie kick has to be getting close to breaching that unspoken covenant.

In a press release issued Thursday via state media outlet RIA-Novosti and translated by Google, rapey mustache guy/Kremlin spokesworm Dmitry Peskov “called the Max platform an accessible alternative to other messaging apps. ‘Max is an accessible alternative, a developing messenger, a national messenger. And it (this alternative – ed) is available on the market for citizens,’ he told reporters. VK launched the beta version of the MAX digital platform in March 2025. The platform allows users to exchange messages, make calls, send voice messages, and send files up to four gigabytes in size. The app is available in the App Store, RuStore, and Google Play.”

Amazingly, the statement’s characterization of MAX as an “accessible alternative” is factually accurate because, per CNBC, far more popular platform WhatsApp is, as of Thursday, completely banned in Russia. Thus MAX is the currently accessible alternative to the Facebook-owned chat app.

Still, Peskov’s pitch could’ve worked maybe just a little bit harder to sell Russians on Max by emphasizing the superior content moderation and “user safety” team responsiveness. Everyone’s got some annoying conspiracy theorist weirdo who constantly posts insane garbage like “Civilians are being targeted in Ukraine” and “President Putin is insanely paranoid about being assassinated by Kyiv so he never sleeps in the same bed two nights in a row.” With Max, you won’t have to see them spreading that kind of disinfo again. And you won’t have to see them in real life again either.

Dem New Mexico Senator Benny Ray Lujan will run unopposed in November’s general election after Secretary of State Maggie Toulouse Oliver ruled that Lujan’s would-be Republican opponent Christopher Vanden Heuvel had not turned in the minimum amount of signatures on his ballot access petition, the Albuquerque Journal reports. The same fate befell Republican Carlton Pennington in the 1st Congressional District race, Republican gov hopeful Belinda Robertson, and Dem Thomas Wakely, who had launched a primary challenge against 2nd District Dem Gabe Vasquez.

“Any Republican, in the House or the Senate, that votes against TARIFFS will seriously suffer the consequences come Election time, and that includes Primaries! Our Trade Deficit has been reduced by 78 percent, the Dow Jones has just hit 50,000, and the S&P, 7,000, all Numbers that were considered IMPOSSIBLE just one year ago. In addition, TARIFFS have given us Great National Security because the mere mention of the word has Countries agreeing to our strongest wishes. TARIFFS have given us Economic and National Security, and no Republican should be responsible for destroying this privilege,” the supposedly skilled political leader posted on Wednesday.

“The RINO Governor of the Great State of Oklahoma, in which I won all 77 Counties, three times (The only person to do so!), incorrectly stated my position on the very exclusive Governors Annual Dinner and Meeting at the White House: ‘The White House intends to limit invitations to the annual business meeting, scheduled for February 20th, to Republican Governors only.’ That is false! The invitations were sent to ALL Governors, other than two, who I feel are not worthy of being there.”

“I did not invite the Governor of Colorado, who has unfairly incarcerated in solitary confinement a 73-year-old cancer stricken woman (A nine year term!), for attempting to fight Democrat Voter Fraud, plus the foul mouthed Governor of Maryland, who fraudulently stated that he received Military medals, A LIE, is doing a terrible job on the rebuilding of the Francis Scott Key Bridge, and has allowed Baltimore to continue to be a Crime Disaster. I even invited the SLOB of a Governor, JB Pritzker, and horrendous California Governor, Gavin Newscum, to the Dinner, despite the terrible job that they are doing. So, as usual with him, Stitt got it WRONG! The Invitations were sent out to all other Governors, Democrat and Republican. I look forward to seeing the Republican Governors, and some of the Democrats Governors who were worthy of being invited, but most of whom won’t show up,” posted an evidently extra agitated convicted felon President Trump on Wednesday.

Speaker of the House Mike Johnson on Wednesday told reporters he’s asked Florida Republican Congressman Neal Dunn not to die, or worse, resign early next week – as Dunn did not exactly deny earlier, Politico reports. “Neal Dunn is a beloved member of Congress and a great man, and you know, he’s informed us he’s not going to run for reelection,” Johnson said. As for what Dunn’s next move is, Johnson added he’s “not sure – you need to ask him. But I’ve encouraged him to stay and be a part of this, and I think he wants to do that.” Johnson’s majority is effectively two votes.

Without alerting White House, Pentagon, or DHS, FAA Administrator Bryan Bedford on Tuesday night decided to close the airspace around El Paso, Texas because the “Department of War” decided to deploy and fire an experimental new laser beam weapon to destroy what were believed to be drug cartel drones crossing the Mexican border, but the only confirmed hit they had was on a mylar party balloon, CBS News reports on just another surreal episode of incompetence from this regime.

“The FAA and DOW acted swiftly to address a cartel drone incursion. The threat has been neutralized, and there is no danger to commercial travel in the region. The restrictions have been lifted and normal flights are resuming,” ex-Real World cast member Sean Duffy said in a statement.

State propaganda network Fox News cut away from its live airing of scumbag Attorney General Pam Bondi’s testimony to the House Judiciary Committee, clip guy Aaron Rupar reports writes is “highly unusual for a high-profile hearing of this sort” and thus an unmistakable sign that it isn’t going well.

Remember, Republicans currently hold the House majority, lol. This isn’t the friggin January 6th Select Committee hearings that they refused to fully expose their audience to – or air at all.

MAGA activist Carrie Prejean Boller, a former Miss California beauty pageant winner who was stripped of her title over a sex tape scandal and homophobic comments in 2009 and then later became a Trump 2020 campaign advisor, was fired from the White House’s “Religious Liberty Commission” on Wednesday, two days after she derailed the panel’s Monday hearing on antisemitism by peppering witnesses with questions like “Catholics do not embrace Zionism, just so you know. So are all Catholics antisemites?” and defending Candace Owens, Jewish Insider reports.

Commission chair Texas Lt Gov Dannie Goeb, aka Dan Patrick, announced the firing in a tweet, writing “No member of the Commission has the right to hijack a hearing for their own personal and political agenda on any issue. This is clearly, without question, what happened Monday in our hearing on antisemitism in America. This was my decision.” The Groypers are gonna LOVE this.

The term “kayfabe” refers to insider pro wrestling slang akin to what theater producers might call “diegesis”: the elements internal to the performance as staged for the audience. For example, WWE or AEW wrestlers who are close friends behind the scenes will meet with scriptwriters prior to a show to discuss the “in kayfabe” improvisational beats of their on-camera blood feud in order to advance a storyline about this or that contested championship belt or other plot device. Contrast with “shoot,” which would be some sort of breaking of character, an example being a wrestler with real-life personal enmity of another purposely inflicting injury on that IRL antagonist in front of the audience instead of pulling punches. Or punching Vince McMahon like Bret Hart did once.

Jim Jordan is not a pro wrestler – even though, fucking hilariously, Amazon classified listed 2022 book “Do What You Said You Would Do” as a “Wrestler biography” alongside various unauthorized bios of WWE figures such as John Cena and Cody Rhodes. He’s just a former NCAA Division I sport wrestler who was legitimately very successful at it if less so at preventing his charges from being sexually molested by a sick fuck doctor while Jordan served as an assistant coach at Ohio State.

And yet it’s pretty difficult not to see the very goddamned obvious kayfabe of this Axios article about Jordan issuing subpoenas to eight major Obamacare market insurers – Elevance, CVS, Centene, GuideWell, Oscar Health, Kaiser Permanente, Health Care Service Corporation and Blue Shield of California – in what the “Be Smart” bullet-point factory writes is “part of a widening investigation of potential fraud surrounding the use of premium subsidies in the individual market.”

What was supposed to last 10 days for who the actual hell knows what reason has ended after just a few hours for who the actual hell knows what reason as Fox News reports that the FAA abruptly lifted the flight ban in and out of the airspace over El Paso, Texas on Wednesday.

“JP Cooney – one of the lead prosecutors of President Trump in Jack Smith’s Special Counsel’s Office – today announced his candidacy as a Democrat running for Virginia’s newly drawn seventh Congressional District. Described by the Washington Post as ‘a bold prosecutor who took on big cases,’ The New York Times as a prosecutor ‘known for his aggressive approach,’ and by Business Insider as a ‘top public corruption prosecutor,’ JP Cooney had an 18-year career at the Department of Justice’s Criminal Division, the US Attorney’s Office in Washington, DC, and in Jack Smith’s Special Counsel’s Office before being fired by President Donald Trump within a week of inauguration,” says a press release from the campaign. Cooney’s would-be seat technically doesn’t even exist yet as he’s awaiting Virginia Dems to gerrymander out four of the state’s Republicans.

Sources tell Bloomberg News that convicted felon President Trump has privately been talking out loud about quitting the US-Canada-Mexico trade pact that he negotiated and signed in his first term, probably because it would look like he’s doing something besides just saying racist, hateful shit and complaining all the time. Even if it amounts to opposing his own policies.

Please scratch that Fox News viewers. Pretend this isn’t the second or third time that the fucking idiot in charge of the FBI hasn’t arrested the wrong guy in a high-profile case. Continue watching.

Convicted felon President Trump’s approval rating is at the lowest of his second term in NBC’s polling as the latest national round conducted with SurveyMonkey finds the fat bastard at 39 percent approve to 61 percent disapprove. But MAGAmerica still loves and cherishes him.

“All flights to and from El Paso are grounded, including commercial, cargo and general aviation. The FAA has issued a flight restriction halting all flights to and from El Paso effective from February 10 at 11:30 PM (MST) to February 20 at 11:30 PM (MST). Travelers should contact their airlines to get most up-to-date flight status information,” said El Paso International Airport in a statement on Wednesday and there is zero other official information available on this beyond the FAA’s website saying the area is now under “Temporary flight restrictions for Special Security Reasons.”

El Paso International Airport is a regional hub that handles over 4 million passengers a year, making it the 71st busiest in the United States. And now they’re just shutting it down for 10 days.
