Let’s start by apologizing to our non-commenting readers in advance of this Disqus Cinematic Universe piece. Sorry if you do not find any of this stuff funny or interesting. We will resume real news after this “article.” However our commenting readers take priority as they are our main resource for feedback and tips on content, so fan service it is. Disqus and National Zero fan service.

Save for one brief mini-throwback, it’s been more than two years since our last “Blue Revenge,” a compilation of hubristic right wing posts pulled from The Hill for our commenters to drop a friendly reply to remind them that their prognostication did not come to pass – and you’ve already guessed what this one is about. Emphasis on friendly because we’re not trying to encourage shitposting. And replace “The Hill” with “Mediaite,” because as much as the former sucked the latter now sucks even worse.

Fri, 5/17/2024 6:59 AM on ‘Trump Suggests Alvin Bragg ‘Is Going To Drop’ New York Case Against Him: ‘Never Wanted To Bring the Witch Hunt Against Me’’

Management at an elite club in DC have had enough of drunken shitbrain former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani’s deranged and false rantings are about to throw him out for failing to conduct himself like a respectable member of society who closes the door when he pees, Reuters reports.

They wrote it differently though. Their lede says “Rudy Giuliani should be stripped of his law license for his work on a failed lawsuit challenging former President Donald Trump’s 2020 US election loss in Pennsylvania, a Washington, DC disciplinary board recommended on Friday.” Not to be biased or anything but we think ours is better. He is an alcoholic about to be tossed out of a bar after all.

President Biden: The American principle that no one is above the law was reaffirmed. Donald Trump was given every opportunity to defend himself. It was a state case, not a federal case. And it was heard by a jury of 12 citizens. 12 Americans, 12 people like you. Like millions of… pic.twitter.com/kfJeZqYnsn

At this same presser on Friday Biden also announced that the Israelis have passed a new ceasefire proposal to Hamas via the Egyptian and Qatari intermediaries, the deal’s exact scope unclear.

The clip from the heroic Acyn Torabi is only six seconds long so no need to rip it, but it’s still worth picking up that former Trump White House Reichsminister of Propaganda and current Fox News daytime host Kayleigh McEnany on Friday told one of the other idiots she works with that if President Biden wants “to take the high road” he should “call up [Dem New York Governor] Kathy Hochul, have her give a pardon” to Kayleigh’s obese 34-times convicted felon former boss.

Why? We have no fucking clue. When we say Republicans “have no shame” we’re always referring to gross hypocrisies like, for example, some asshole MAGA congressman complaining that the COVID stimulus was a socialist giveaway that supercharged inflation even after it turned out that said MAGA congressman got $1.2 million in PPP loans to his bullshit commercial property management business forgiven. That’s the “fuck you libs” kind of shamelessness we’re more used to handling.

Kayleigh McEnany’s void of shame here is a different vintage, a bald admission of weakness that throws us for a loop. Like we just don’t know how to process a regime propagandist debasing herself and her cohort with a plaintive plea for mercy from their sworn enemy. Limp Dick Durbin sounds tougher when he’s making squeaky noises at the Supreme Court. What the hell is she thinking?

“We write to respectfully request your testimony at a hearing before the Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government of the Committee on the Judiciary titled, ‘Hearing on the Weaponization of the Federal Government,’ on June 13, 2024, at 10:00 am in room 2141 of the Rayburn House Office Building. This hearing will examine actions by state and local prosecutors to engage politically motivated prosecutions of federal officials, in particular the recent political prosecution of President Donald Trump by the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office.”

“The enclosed Witness Instruction Sheet provides information for witnesses appearing before the Committee. Please note the procedures for submitting written testimony at least two business days prior to the hearing. Please confirm your appearance before the Committee as soon as possible, but no later than 5:00 pm on June 7, 2024. If you have any questions, please contact Committee staff at (202) 225-6906. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter,” writes spandex-wearing grapple-freak Jim Jordan in a letter to Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg, who will definitely accept the invite after being accused of “politically motivated prosecutions.”

Also lol at this fucking assclown for closing the barn door after you know what just happened.

Cops in Zambia arrested former First Lady Esther Lungu, her daughter Chiyeso Katete, and another relative on charges of possession of stolen property, namely an estate in the capital city of Lusaka valued at $1.5 million, the BBC reports on a switch from Senator Bob Menendez and Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito’s decidedly less than credible “actually my wife did it” defenses.

For his part, former President Edgar Lungu, was not implicated in this crime specifically – which the old lady’s mansion is just the tip of the iceberg – but is also no stranger to related legal troubles himself these days. Lungu was defeated in 2021 by current President Hakainde Hichilema after Zambians decided they were not better of than they had been six years earlier. And they were not by objective measures such as national debt and gross domestic product.

Last week Lungu was placed under house arrest for apparently hinting at a coup to return himself to power which, as much as it sounds like an American QAnon fan fiction story from mid-2021, is a little less unrealistic in Sub-Saharan Africa. As such it would appear that Hichilema is just responding to the shit talk accordingly by zeroing in on Lungu and his family’s legal vulnerabilities.

Convicted felon former President Trump will hold a press conference starting at 11 AM EDT on Friday to talk about his positive vision for economic growth, improving education, getting Americans better access to health care and that’s about as much as we could type with a straight face.

West Virginia Senator Joe Manchin on Friday announced he had officially left the Democratic Party and registered as an independent, leaving observers guessing as to whether this matters.

“Today, the Trump campaign announced a record shattering small dollar fundraising haul following the sham Biden Trial verdict totaling $34.8 million nearly double the biggest day ever recorded for the Trump campaign on the WinRed platform. Crooked Joe Biden and the Democrats with their election interference political witch hunt have awakened the MAGA movement like never before.”

“From just minutes after the sham trial verdict was announced, our digital fundraising system was overwhelmed with support, and despite temporary delays online because of the amount of traffic, President Trump raised $34.8 million dollars from small dollar donors. Not only was the amount historic, but 29.7 percent of yesterday’s donor’s were brand new donors to the WinRed platform.”

“President Trump and our campaign are immensely grateful from this outpouring of support from patriots across our country. President Trump is fighting to save our nation and November 5th is the day Americans will deliver the real verdict” say Trump campaign reichsleiters Chris LaCivita and Susie Wiles in a statement on a new windfall to help pay for New York State appellate lawyers.

And yeah, the $34 million sounds fishy given that it’s obviously $1 million for every count the fat fuck was convicted of, but their site crashed from the traffic and all the big time MAGA influencers were posting pics of their contributions. So it’s probably true. We would however love to get an email from the alternate universe in which Donald was acquitted. That campaign definitely raised more, lol.

Today is a miscarriage of justice. Donald Trump should NOT of been found guilty.

This would of fit in perfect with last nites “MAGA Land” article witch, unhinged as the comment’s were, didn’t have to much red meet for pendants who r always exacerbated wit the spelling an usage in the “patriot’s” righting… And holy shit did that sentence take way too long to compose.

Appropriating the voice of a fat kid famous for murdering two people is harder than it looks.

A German court on Friday ordered 95 year-old Holocaust denier Ursula Haverbeck to stand trial on charges of incitement for propagating alternative facts about the Nazi atrocity, DPA reports.

This isn’t even close to Haverbeck’s first rodeo as she did a two year bid in 2004 for calling the systemic slaughter of six million European Jews – roughly two-thirds of their total pre-war number plus 11 million others among populations deemed genetically inferior to the Nazis – a hoax and 10 months in 2015 for the same in an interview during the trial of an infamous SS officer who had actually confessed to the crimes publicly in a direct response to Holocaust denialism. Then there’s another year-long bid Haverbeck was slapped with in 2022 – it’s unclear if she served that or has still been out on appeal. As you might have guessed, Haverbeck has a lot of fans among Germany’s far right eager for all the legitimacy the word of a then-15 or 16-year old civilian can lend to their differing point of view about German history, under constant attack from the woke media.

“My bookkeeper called a ‘Legal Expense,’ on the ‘tiny’ description line of the Ledger, a ‘Legal Expense,’ openly paid to my lawyer, at that time a fully accredited one. I was not involved in that designation, but what else would you have called it? It was, in fact, a LEGAL EXPENSE.”

“That is the so-called ‘CRIME.’ On top of that, I wasn’t allowed by the judge to use, in any form, the standard RELIANCE ON COUNSEL DEFENSE (ADVICE OF COUNSEL!). My lawyer, at the time, did virtually everything on the NDA (NON-DISCLOSURE AGREEMENT), and I assumed that what he did was correct. I did nothing wrong, and frankly, there was nothing done wrong – NDAs are standard, commonly used, and LEGAL. MAGA2024! WITCH HUNT! IF THIS CAN HAPPEN TO ME, IT CAN HAPPEN TO ANYONE!” posted convicted felon former President Trump on Friday morning, writing this shit as if he didn’t pass up the opportunity afforded to the accused to testify in his own defense and try to sell the jury on all this bullshit. He did and now he’s posting it like it matters.

Indeed, great damage was done today to the public’s faith in the American legal system.

If a former President can be criminally convicted over such a trivial matter – motivated by politics, rather than justice – then anyone is at risk of a similar fate. https://t.co/zrHCyIZazh

Trump campaign Reichsleiter Chris LaCivita on Thursday warned any and every Republican candidate caught fucking around and fundraising off the Orange Fuhrer’s conviction on 34 felonies in Manhattan will face the political equivalent of summary execution immediately, Politico reports.

“Any Republican elected official, candidate or party committee siphoning money from President Trump’s donors are no better than Judge Merchan’s daughter. We’re keeping a list, we’ll be checking it twice and we aren’t in the spirit of Christmas,” said LaCivita in a memo sent to the cucks.

It’s not clear if the memo was issued before or after Colorado GOP chair Dave Williams – the twatwaffle who in 2022 sued Secretary of State Jena Griswold because she wouldn’t let him submit paperwork to list his name as “Dave ‘Let’s Go Brandon’ Williams” on a primary ballot – sent out a fundraising email saying “the trial and conviction of President Trump is a disgrace and mockery of the principles our nation was founded on” and a whole bunch of other bullshit under a button that says “CLICK HERE TO STAND WITH TRUMP AND DAVE” but goes to a donation portal for Williams’s campaign for Colorado’s 5th District. But it probably doesn’t matter and Williams should be on LaCivita’s “naughty list” either way since the angry asshole’s been saying this for a while now.

Semi-official House Republican state media outlet Punchbowl News reports that the fallout from convicted felon former President Trump’s really bad Thursday in Manhattan will have “a huge impact on Capitol Hill. We’re beginning to see signals that Republican lawmakers will be out for revenge when they return to town next week,” and that spandex wearing grapple-freak Jim Jordan, a “die-hard Trump backer, called the verdict a ‘travesty of justice.’ Jordan has already opened a probe into Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg. There will be more action from the panel on this front.”

House Oversight Chairbilly James Comer will also react somehow, and even “doesn’t necessarily change the dynamics of” the utterly failed Biden impeachment inquiry, “it makes a criminal referral against Biden more likely.” They still need to identify an actual statute to make the referral.

“A final point worth paying attention to: You’re either all in for Trump or you’re against him. His camp is watching everything every Republican says very closely and is ready to pounce on any sign of perceived weakness or disloyalty,” Punchbowl writes as if this is anything new or novel.

No bad day for the pro-Trump internet would be complete without a nightcap like this one, so kick back and enjoy the tears from the cult. You earned it after all these years of bullshit:

“Watch for it, here’s Bidens excuse to get out of debating Trump. ‘I’m not going to debate a convicted Felon'” – Top comment on the Right Scoop’s article, plagiarized from Fox’s Harris Faulkner.

“NY Appellate court is likely just as corrupt as Merchan is” – Top comment on the Gateway Pundit’s article about Jonathan Turley’s bit on Fox News after the verdict. Replace the word “corrupt” with “unlikely to humor Trump’s bullshit and will uphold the verdict” then well this is somewhat refreshingly sober and realistic in comparison to what Turley himself was saying on TV.

“That headline shows that the financial center of the country consists of the same idiots who voted out a 34 felony count guilty verdict” – Top comment on Red State’s article titled “Shares in Trump Media, Owner of Truth Social, Drop Following Announcement of Verdict.” Ughhhhh man… Not even sure where to start with this one. Does “Ed in North Texas” get that it’s the shareholders and not the stock exchange moving the price and… You know what? Forget it. We’ve gotta move on here.

“Democratic Party just committed suicide. They will be no more. God’s verdict is INNOCENT. Buckle up because when God comes to take them out it will be awesomely scarey. There is nowhere for them to hide” – Top comment on WeLoveTrumpReport’s article. Hear that Libs? GOD is mad at you!

“Knowing it was coming doesn’t erase the shock. A rubicon crossed. The days of strongly worded letters must never return” – Top comment on a PJ Media editorial titled “Our Country Will Never Be the Same After the Shameful Trump Verdict.” Lol at the headline and especially at the comment, written as if strongly worded shitposting is somehow going to do the job instead.

“President Joe Biden has taken hundreds of billions of dollars from taxpayers and given it to student loan holders, a desperate attempt to buy votes with your money. Now, the Justice Department is spending taxpayer dollars to buy a different voter bloc: Swifties. The DOJ’s antitrust lawsuit against Live Nation Entertainment is another election-year stunt,” writes the Washington Examiner’s Tom Hebert, who further down says that making the tickets to Taylor Swift’s tour only available through one single website that promptly crashed and fucked over all of her fans back in 2022 is somehow not a textbook example of the kind of monopoly that the government should dismantle.

“Like the student loan bailouts, the Ticketmaster lawsuit is a case of political pandering. For politicians like Biden, it is easier to cut a check to a voter than it is to explain to him why majoring in basket weaving did not put him in an economic position to pay off his student loan debt. Swift cannot charge her fans the true market price, so politicians are stepping in to provide air cover, shamefully buying votes with your tax dollars in the process,” the piece concludes after padding in about a half dozen paragraphs of “this is bad because Joe Biden did it” in the middle.

Well you know what they say: You win some, you lose some but then go on Fox News to say how unfair it is that you lost and complain about all the libs laughing at your client who deserves more respect as “a husband, a father, and a grandfather” even though this whole thing started because he banged a pornstar and a Playboy model after his third wife had given birth to their son who’s just a little older than his grandchildren because you’re so goddamned humiliated and pissed off after the jury nailed the fat fuck on all 34 counts and everything sucks so freaking badly…

We’ll hazard that Todd Blanche would rather be smashing Jesse Watters in the face with a piece of rebar than answering his stupid questions right now but given that newly convicted felon former President Trump could begin publicly attacking him for the failure this bit is probably necessary to allay the Orange God Emperor’s anger and save his law practice from certain doom.

Blanche must’ve mentally impaled Watters’s face with the rebar when he asked “Would you have done anything differently? Is there a witness you thought you should’ve called?” and Blanche, wanting to avoid further antagonizing his scumbag client, said he wouldn’t have changed anything, even though it’s obvious Trump made him do all sorts of stupid shit that pissed off the jury.

After its new artificial intelligence search assistant told people to put glue on pizza and that Barack Obama was a Muslim–he’s not despite what MAGAts claim–Google will scale back the introduction of the service which has been posting search results on the site for American users in the past two weeks, the Washington Post reports.

One of the problems with the Google AI bot was that it included social media posts in its algorithm determining the answers, which is never a good place to go for accurate information.  This isn’t the first time Google will have to tweak a service after a high-profile launch:  earlier this year, it pulled back its AI image creator after it turned racist as people used it.
