IN POLITICAL NEWS

1) Supes or no supes, Trump signed an executive order curbing birthright citizenship. So we’ll be back to the Supes soon. This time, Trump created an impossible situation for birth tourism. If you state on your visa you’re coming here to give birth, you won’t get the visa. But if you lie and it’s discovered, the child isn’t eligible for citizenship. Pretty smart. (TAW—Trump Always Wins). Meanwhile, the justices just closed down a procedural loophole that had been used frequently against Trump.

2) A Senate panel voted to hold the evil gnome Dr. Fallacy in contempt. Whether federal prosecutors follow up and indict the goblin in a lab coat remains to be seen. BTW, Mr. Big Talk, Fetterman Massacre, the Human Ox, as always voted with the DemoKKKrats. If only Randy Paul would put as much effort into voter integrity as he does getting Fallacy.

However, it may be just getting started for the Fallacious One, as the Senate got ahold of his Covid-era phone. Now, according to the Wall Street Urinal, “millions” of additional documents are incoming. You’d say, why in the heck did this beclowned gerbil keep all this stuff, but the answer is obvious. Like James (Scrotumtoter) Comey, Dr. Fallacy has Thanos-level narcissism and wanted to tell it all cuz he’s just soooooo smart. “He WANTS TO SAY IT.” Jeff Childers notes that the amount of transparency and declassification, from JFK to Amelia Earhart to UFOs to Dr. Fallacy has been unprecedented-—and not by a little, but light years beyond what people thought possible. As Childers says, “To prove how historic this Administration’s approach has been, you need only consider how obviously secure the swamp critters seemed in their internal comms. It’s clear that —never in a million years— did they think their messages would ever see the light of FOIA.” He goes on to, I think, correctly tie the Fallacy Follies to the operation known as “Oxferd Comma,” which kicked off the whole “Operation Crossfire Hurricane.” In “Oxferd,” the FBI began in May 2017 to investigate Trump as a “witting or unwitting Russian asset.”

No kidding. Those bowel-infected bureaucratic G-men actually started a coup attempt without a single shred of truly (as those porktots called it) “articulable factual basis.” And to top it off, Scrotumtoter Comey even boasted about this goofball treason in a TWEET where he said “I’m all about Oxford Commas.” Why was “Oxferd” misspelled? Maybe so it wouldn’t come up on data base searches. Chiders concludes this was a massively compartmentalized operation because they knew they were deceiving, duplicitous ducktuckers. Where that went hypothetically was mind-boggling: If the intel agencies actually suspected Trump was an asset, and he had his “finger on the nuke button,” then they could have convinced themselves that assassination was entirely legit as a response.

3) Of course, all along the real coup, and the real fraud, involved the 2020 election. Now we find that 633,000 voter files in Maricopa Co., AZ, were illegally obtained and no one ever went to jail.

4) Just as I thought: President Trump debunked the notion that the U.S. was running out of munitions. We have “massive amounts” he said, but what he didn’t way was we have enough to blow Iran to burqa-land 10 times over.

5) This is outrageous and shows why Pete Hegseth, “The Punisher,” is the best Sec War we’ve ever had. American generals were engaged in a secret backchannel to the ChiComs that urged them to “advocate positions” favorable to Chy-na. Hegseth cited this as a need to depoliticize the officer corps.

6) J.D. Vance, the fraud czar, says they have uncovered $230 billion in fraud just since March.

7) They’re all DemoKKKrat Terrorists, as a candidate for Hawaii’s 2nd district Congress seat threatened beachgoers with a knife, was knocked out with one punch, and was arrested with $1 million bail. Meanwhile, the establishment DemoKKKrat Terrorists just spent over $63 million in a losing effort to take down El-Sayed. In WI, the socialist DemoKKKrat Terrorist, governor candidate, and fellow scabies-spreader Francesca Hong is now walking back bizarre claims that we should cancel Thanksgiving.

Zero Hedge has five ways the DemoKKKrat fascist Socialists of America are helping the GOP. And many are starting to recognize these new commie slimeballs are the old Soviet agents in different guise. For example, Paul Kengor recalls how we battled these same un-Americans in the 1940s and 1950s. They are communists and they deny it, and they are lying. Today, even the New York Slimes issues a call to action (remember previously we’ve heard from Axios and Politico, two DemoKKKrat mouthpieces. So it must be serious: Apparently the DemoKKKrat moderate terrorists are going to spend $15 million against the radical murdermonkeys. “Moderate DemoKKKrats Prepare for ‘War’ Against the Ascendent Left.” First, someone should tell the Slimes there is no such thing as a “moderate” DemoKKKrat Terror Party member. Second, this is all very, very good for Rs because it will highlight the extreme fascist/communist character of the entire party. But Ds just might want to note that El-Sayed’s campaign got $115,000 from people with terrorist affiliations.

8) Another 70 were arrested in a MI pedo sweep. Once again I ask, where are all these leads coming from? This is now seven or eight major pedo busts in 18 months. Don’t suppose the leads are coming from the Eppy Files that certain people want released, do you?

9) President Trump honored over 120 Olympians at the White House.

10) Yertle is apparently alive, though who knows if he’s well. He was discharged from the hospital. Meanwhile, as we knew would happen, once nominated El-Sayed got SpewMore’s backing. And wasn’t Ken Paxton supposed to be unpopular? He leads the GOP in fundraising this quarter.

11) At DOJ’s request, a judge dismissed cases against 8 “Oath Keepers” for their roles in the Patriot Day (J6) festivities.

12) So what’s new? The pollsters missed MI badly. We’re talking Ann Seltzer Cackles-is-going-to-win-IA-big badly. Double digits. Scott Rasmussen says it’s because Abdul Al-Sayed won the uber educated (post-college degree) by a ton, and yet didn’t carry a single county that had a majority non-college. Scott Rasmussen says the miss was because the former group loves to answer the phone and the latter won’t.

13) A black judge overseeing the gang rape case of a white LSU coed is the mother of a serial rapist.

IN AI NEWS

14) AI is burning through cash, and Alphabet just said “Please, sir, may I have some more?” by borrowing another $20-25 billion.

15_ There are real and important concerns about data centers’ use of water and power, but they are being manipulated in a deliberate strategic attack by the ChiComs. Everyone should go into these data center debates not with the view, “Can we stop them?” but with the approach of “Let us find a way to enable data centers without raising utility rates or draining our water because we HAVE to defeat China in his endeavor.”

16) Investigators found 57 decomposing bodies in a South Side, Chicago funeral home. Meh. You say decomposing, I say very slow cremation.

IN ILLEGAL CRIMINAL ALIEN NEWS

17) So far, the Trump administration has found over 148,000 missing children out of the 470,000 brought in under Rutabaga and shuffled off to pedo rings or child labor. The Administration also just fired several “migrant advocacy groups” and instead let a contract to a Houston legal group that works to get migrant kids brought here back to their homes.

IN CULTURAL NEWS

18) A corrupt Long Island PTA mom admits she stole $14,000 to load up on Lululemon. Trust me. You do not want to see this pic and even imagine her for a second in yogapants unless they came with a Doctor Doom mask.

19) New Beirut’s (Seattle’s) new $165 million library is overrun by drug addicts. Heck, most of them can’t even read.

IN TRANSOID NEWS

20) Big win as a federal appeals court ruled that ME schools must observe the federal government’s sex and gender rules if it wants fed money.

IN ECONOMIC NEWS

21) Employers are hiring fewer, but paying more.

22) God help us. Doordash delievery drones.

23) I’ve been as guilty of this as anyone saying Las Vegas was dying, but it’s not quite dead yet as these statistics prove. In fact, it’s doing pretty well. Labor force is up 1.2%, unemployment down over 2%-—but the foreclosures and notices of defauts are up sharply, so we’ll see what that brings.

24) Great news, as the private sector added 30,000 jobs (not enough, but surely not a “recession”) and the government sectors shed 57,000. This truly is the “great replacement” of the public sect0r by the private sector.

IN INTERNATIONAL NEWS

25) The Sun says that another immigrant invasion of Cueto is just “days away.”

26) Sneaky little you-know-whats, as the ChiComs slipped in a hidden “back door” into millions of routers. Gee, what would they need that for? Voting machines?

27) This author argues that based on all the regional arrangements and global restructuring of energy that has occurred, Trump won the Iran war.

28) Europe is experiencing a terrible drought, and the Danube has gotten so low that two WW II warship hulls were exposed.

29) Another DSI hire, this time a black prof at Cambridge, had to resign amidst plagiarism allegations.

IN ENTERTAINMENT NEWS

30) “Halo” admits it stupidly hired people who hate “Halo.” They are deliberately trying to screw things up then found that a remake can’t even keep up with the original.

31) I haven’t discussed this much because honestly I don’t care about women’s basketball, but the Women’s Tennis Association introduced sex-testing but the Women’s (Lesbian) National Basketball Association won’t. And they are “poised to” start admitting dudes. Only Indiana Fever star and social media superstar, Sophie Cunningham, is standing against this. Caitlin Clark had an opportunity last week and went full woke. I hope she isn’t so stupid as to think that will buy here any good will from the black lesbians who just hate her and foul her mercilessly.

32) Of course the radical giglepuppets are blaming “Spider-Man: Brand New Day’s” success over the horrible “Supergirl” is due to sexism. Yeh, that and a good story vs. crap.

IN MEDICAL NEWS

33) A new study shows cognative decline related to drinking a Diet Coke daily. Whew. I only drink A&W Diet Root Beer-—maybe 3-4 a day.

34) RFK, Jr., decertified a KY organ harvesting outfit that reportedly was not waiting for all signs of life to disappear before opening a flea market.

35) Now you know Dr. Fallacy needs to be slapped upside da haid, when the Guardian comes out and says making him the enemy will harm “public health” for years. There is no such thing as “public health.” There is individual health and Dr. Fallacy was as big a threat to that as the China Virus itself. The New York Slimes is a little bit more uneasy, warning that Fallacy’s actions in taking the Fifth “could be grave.” (”Grave danger?” “Is there any other kind?”). Jeff Childers, a lawyer, goes into great detail about the unique nature of the Fallacy case because he had an unconditional (autopen) pardon and therefore technically was not permitted to plead the Fifth. Childers notes that Fallacy’ s case may soon end up before the Supes, who may rule in favor of his Fifth Amendment right but only by denying that the Genome Goblin wasn’t immunized because his autopen pardon was invalid. Good times.

AND FINALLY . . .

36) Usually I don’t end with a joke, but this is a good one:

J.D. Vance walks in on President Trump and Muy Macho Marco in a heated discussion.

“What are you guys talking about,” Vance asks.

Trump replies, “We’re looking for a way to deport 3 million liberal white women and four beagles.”

Vance was puzzled. “What did the Beagles do?”

Rubio turns to Trump and says, “See. Told you no one would care about the women.”
