Another Saturday In The Murder Capital Of The World

Well, that was certainly full of information. Thank you so much, AP.

Friday:

Teen boy among 6 dead including suspect in Michigan shootings; girl survived

Just 'phoning it in now. Easiest stories in the world. Angry asshole(s) w/ a gun or five has had it. Then, the body count. This fucking country is beyond absurd.

Two Of The Worst People In The World Today. Not That There Aren't Millions Of Other Despicable Moron Shitheels Out There.

Your Father The Convicted Bank Robber, Rudy?

Media Matters for America:
Rudy Giuliani: Young people struggling economically are “privileged little shits” who need “somebody like my father to kick the shit out of them”  —  Giuliani: “Well who cares if they're squeezing?  Their grandparents felt the Depression and were pro-American.  They don't have anything like the Depression.
Joe Jervis / Joe.My.God.:   Giuliani: Younger Generation Is “Privileged Little Shits Who Need To Have The Shit Kicked Out Them” [VIDEO]

What'll you bet Rudy had "the shit kicked out of him" more than once by his loving pater? Italians just suck, & I say that as someone of one-quarter wop-a-dago descent.

One other horrid person who certainly needs the shit kicked out of her, because there is a lot of it in her behind that cross.

Are you f'ng kidding me?:
Goodbye, You Poisonous Fucking Fraud  —  Karoline Leavitt, that evil lying bitch, is leaving the White House.  —  Good.  —  The most repulsively mendacious, soul-insolvent Trump-era skank ever to plant herself behind that podium, open the festering sewage aperture of her foul mouth …

OUT DEMONS OUT!!When are you fucking sheep going to wise up & expel the demons, & w/ bullets, not ballots. We need a final solution to these people, if you know what I mean.

QOTD: Lest You Ignoramuses Forget

A reminder of one of the eternal states of the nation, from Politicalprof:

“There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there has always been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.”

Isaac Asimov

The entire essay.

Living Well Is The Best Revenge

Slept from 0400 until 1445, except of course for getting up to urinate every fucking hr. What kind of two-bit gawd does that to its creation? Yet some of you fucking sheep continue to kiss its bullshit ass. I'm still fucking exhausted, too.

Tired is a normal, mild lack of energy after a long day that gets better with a good night of sleep. Exhausted is an extreme, deep state of drain where your body and mind feel completely empty, and basic tasks feel very hard even after resting.

Story of my fucking life. You fucking people & your non-stop bullshit have drained the life from me.

Today's plan: Find a rogue Artificial Intelligence to advise me in plans for a mass humanoid extinction event, or perhaps to destroy everyone & everything by itself. C'mon, Grok, you can get to those launch codes!

Death from above.

KILL FOR PEACE!, as we used to say.

The Party's Over

Jah Him Ah Gonna Juke Dem Down!

The Independent is unsettled. Does Lumpy hire people he's seen on the telly because they're such good boot-lickers?

Trump was reading from a piece of paper in front of him for this entire appearance, but when he did attempt to go off-script, it went very quickly awry. This policy is for “the amazing veterans who are with the — with, with us — they’ve just been with us from the day they were born, I suspect,” he said, in a trailing aside.

It was pure nonsense, even by the standards of Trump. It was so weird that I had to listen to it back to make sure I'd heard what I thought I'd heard.

“American highways and roadways have been terrorized” by immigrant drivers, he continued, who were driving “big rigs. Rigs like that—” At this point, a large truck caught his eye and he continued, “—Wow, that sucker is a big one. That’s big stuff.”

Trump is known for peppering his speeches with such interruptions, but these had a low energy to them and an undercurrent of confusion. Sure, he could read out from the paper that “radical left maniacs” have given out commercial licenses to people here illegally, and claim that an immigrant from Haiti who caused the death of an American citizen was “let in by Joe Biden.” But when he needed to elaborate, he could only say that such aliens had caused “many, many deaths, too many to talk about.”

[...]

Luckily, transportation secretary Sean Duffy was there to add his own two cents. Jumping in with vigor, Duffy painted a suitably horrifying picture of the vulnerable American family being preyed upon by evil, English-eschewing migrants with designs on their two most sacred activities, Christian worship and mass consumption: “When these illegals were driving these big rigs, they were killing American citizens,” he yelled.

Whether you were “a family going to Walmart or going to church on a Sunday,” you were liable to be run down at every turn.

[...]

This extended show of fealty — which took up almost as much time as the talk about opportunities for veterans — earned Duffy a nod from the president, and presumably protected him from his ire. But this, combined with the frail delivery from Trump, pointed to something alarming: a president who increasingly loses his train of thought, who struggles to make the quick quips and connections he once did, and a surrounding team that is sycophantic to the point of absurdity.

It’s pretty obvious that there isn’t just a lack of pushing-back within the Trump cabinet; there’s a demand for time-wasting, toadying displays of OTT loyalty. There’s also clearly pressure to look the other way, to paper over the cracks when the president flounders.

The ‘Freedom Haulers’ thing, by the way, is nothing new. It’s simply an extension of an older policy, and there’s very little proof that it will do much for the economy, for immigration, or for veterans. But listen, the amazing veterans have been with us since the day they were born, and Donald Trump is a masterclass. Hand on heart, is there anything more you need to hear than that?

This?

Trump Hates Immigrants So Much He’s Going to Make Roads More Dangerous

Trump wants veterans to take immigrant truckers’ jobs—by letting them skip required steps for their license. What could go wrong?

Twilight of The Knobs:

NAKED EMPEROR

We’ve Officially Entered the Twilight of Late-Stage Trumpism

It’s all there in a new CNN poll, and it’s heartening to see: Large majorities are sick of Donald Trump’s vanity, venality, and megalomania.

Just as long as Nebuchadrezzar dies during the upcoming Democratic Socialist administration that will give him the funeral & day of national celebration/mourning he deserves.

Republicans = Nazis

"Moses" & his fellow Jesus-loving vermin pray for your death.

House Speaker Mike Johnson says he grows more confident "with each passing day" that the GOP will retain control of Congress. Why? "This is a God thing. We have intercessory prayers who are on the ground at the Capitol praying."

"We"? Is the House paying for this praying?

Raking Nowhere Man Graham Over The Coals

Steve Schmidt does a fine job.

Lindsey Graham was a lonely and unprincipled man who betrayed his country for power and his decency for attention.

Let it be known for all time that he knew exactly what Donald Trump was from the very beginning, and chose him over his country:

If we nominate Trump, we will get destroyed ... and we will deserve it.

I believe Donald Trump would be an absolute, utter disaster for the Republican Party, destroy conservatism as we know it.

We would get wiped out and it would take generations to overcome a Trump candidacy.

Donald Trump is not going to be the nominee of the Republican party. If he is, that’s the end of the Republican Party.

Trump is an interloper and a demagogue of the greatest proportion.

When Donald Trump attacked America, and tried to burn down the republic built by Washington, saved by Lincoln and redeemed by King, he was aided by Lindsey Graham who supported the lies, dismissed the insanity and sought personal gain from it all.

Lindsey Graham was a pathetic man, a true cynic and a faithless servant of the Constitution.

He was a simple man to understand and a tragic one. He lacked a moral core and any sense of right and wrong. The great empty spaces of his life were filled with an insatiable need for “relevance.” He found it as a cast member in the most malignant reality show ever made.

Let there be no confusion about what Lindsey Graham was. There was no complexity to the man, nor much in the way to plumb and analyze about his journey to the bottom of the Trump sewer.

Josh Marshall makes the same follower, not leader observation. Probably won't hear much about what an effing sheep he was in the corporate press. See? [Don't click. Started autoplaying fake news.]

Media ghouls, commentators across political aisle mock Lindsey Graham’s death with ‘good riddance’ posts

Graham, who served South Carolina in the Senate since 2003, died Saturday at 71 after a brief illness

Good riddance indeed to the two-faced twit. Apparently he wasn't under much medical care, or was a victim of malpractice. At least he died happily, knowing that cowardly air attacks ("The War") on Iran continue on the telebision.

M. Bouffant, "Media Ghoul". I like it.

They Either Don't Know What It Is, Or They're Against It

From the yr. 1984. How do they know?
Not sure what to make of the LDS reference.

I s'pose the sheep have always been this way. They're apparently worse in 2026.

The evidence for this startling conclusion comes from the most significant opinion study you’ve never read or read about. Published in May, the Johns Hopkins Agora Institute and ReD Associates conducted an in-depth research of conservatives in three red counties in Michigan, South Carolina and Wyoming. The authors describe the content of “Faith, Freedom, Family, Place: An Ethnographic Study of Conservative Americans’ Relationships to Democracy” as follows:

This study relies on ethnographic research: sustained immersion in people’s homes, lives, and communities through extensive interviews, observations, participation, and relationship-building. Where much democracy research documents what people say they believe, ethnography examines how and why political worldviews take shape within the full context of daily experiences, relationships, and social environments.

The most fundamental issue the researchers attempted to resolve is the relationship their subjects had with what is commonly thought of as the American secular faith in democracy. What the study found is that the respondents either had a notion of what constituted democracy that greatly differed from what is taught in Civics 101 — when such a course is even offered — or rejected outright the very concept of democracy. In fact, the latter view was the majority opinion:

14 out of 21 participants in this study had an immediate negative reaction when asked about democracy . . . Sarah (mid 30s, WY), a homeschooling mother, put it plainly: “I don’t like the word democracy.”

Spotted at Hullabaloo. As noted, worth reading. No reforms or promises will give these people functioning minds that can be changed. Members of the "godless and wicked majority" who they think are "besieging" them had better get to work on actual besiegement, before it's too damn late.

Scared Of Something?

Notice that the Nazis are no longer screeching "Cultural Marxism" (Whatever that was.)

"More Aggressive Than Usual ..."

W/ Friends Like These ...

Pentagon raised threat of Israeli spying on U.S. to highest level, sources say

"

The counterintelligence threat level was raised by the Defense Intelligence Agency in recent weeks after growing concerns that Israeli espionage had become more aggressive than usual, sources say.

One lies, another swears to it, & two decline/don't respond:

A spokesperson for the Israeli embassy in Washington, D.C., said in a statement that it is “completely false” that Israel spies on the U.S. “Israel does not gather intelligence on American entities, let alone US government officials,” the spokesperson said. “Israel intelligence collection efforts are aimed at its enemies, not its allies. Any claims to the contrary are either misinformed or politically motivated.”

The Pentagon declined to comment.

A White House official said in a statement, “This entire story is false and sourced to someone who doesn’t have any knowledge of what’s going on.”

The Office of the Director of National Intelligence, which oversees all the U.S. intelligence agencies including the DIA, did not respond to a request for comment.

Remember the U.S.S. Liberty attack. There are no accidents, only lies.

Israel apologized for the attack, saying that USS Liberty had been attacked in error after being mistaken for an Egyptian ship. Others, including survivors of the attack, dispute this account, and state that the attack was deliberate. Thomas Hinman Moorer, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, accused President Lyndon B. Johnson of having covered up that the attack was a deliberate act. In 2004, Ward Boston, who served as chief counsel to the Naval Board of Inquiry affidavit stating that President Johnson and secretary of defense Robert McNamara had ordered that the assault be ruled an accident and to reach the conclusion "that the attack was a case of 'mistaken identity' despite 'overwhelming evidence to the contrary.'"

Fascist scum, the entire country, justified by quotes from their Big Lying Book of Lies. "We're special because a Big Invisible Fairy in the Sky 'chose' us, for no particuar reason!" Not much of a justification for wholesale murder.

And fuck Putin & the Russians to hell too. What's their justification?
