    Fat Hitler has ordered his Secretary of Agriculture to lower egg prices. In response Brooke Rollins (DEI) is announcing an intervention to stop further destruction of flocks infected with H5N1 avian influenza to prevent pandemic spread of the deadly virus and further crossover into human populations.

    That ought to work. Widespread infection and a few more cases of bird to human transmission should reliably produce a collapse in demand and prices along with it.

    The Kootenay County Sheriff who was seen this weekend directing the felonious criminal assault of a woman at a Republican town hall in Coeur d’Alene because she dared to speak in opposition, is now facing an investigation for possible criminal fraud stemming from his disability retirement from the LACSD, where he draws about $150,000 per year in full disability benefits while also drawing a full active duty salary as a Sheriff in Kootenay County Idaho.

    HA libbies, beginning today:

    We don’t understand the methods Trump is using to bring down the price of eggs!

    Such a weak approach to dissent.

    the USDA’s conditional approval of a vaccine

    The DEI hire who has been ordered by “The King” to reduce egg prices fast has ordered the department she oversees to approve something so more infected eggs can get to consumers.

    Undoubtedly that will result in more eggs at much lower prices.

    Good stuff. Strong post. Very convincing.
    (Dumbfuck responds.) Yum. Virally.

  13. 13

    MAGA can have my share of the soon to become poison eggs. And I’m sure they will.

    The people who don’t believe in vaccines also don’t believe in the germ theory of disease. Already Elmo’s favorite media platforms are spreading the word that H5N1 is a lab variant hatched in China to weaken Fat Hitler. Once a few human to human transmissions are confirmed our fuckstick troll will fall in line too.

    🚨🇺🇸83% OF VOTERS DEMAND SPENDING CUTS

    New poll: 83% of Americans want the government to cut spending instead of raising taxes—but D.C. just kept spending under Biden.

    – 67% say the debt is unsustainable
    – 83% want the budget balanced
    – 77% demand a full review of government spending

    Yet Democrats refused to cut a dime while pushing higher taxes and endless deficits. Now,

    Trump will not cut spending. He has no real plans to do so.

    As usual someone put out a bullshit statistic, and Republicans picked it up and ran with it:

    … a startling statistic about federal workers keeps coming up: Only 6% of federal employees are working full time in their offices.

    As for where this particular bullshit statistic — which nobody from the White House to Congress bothered to fact-check — came from:

    The 6% statistic burst into the public consciousness in early December of last year when Sen. Joni Ernst, an Iowa Republican, released a report on federal workers …. A footnote cited a single source: a story published months earlier by Federal News Network, a news organization in the suburbs of Washington that … had invited readers to answer an online survey about their work habits, drawing 6,338 from the federal workforce of 2.2 million. A story about the survey … noted that only 6% of the respondents reported working full time in the office.

    The day after Ernst released her report, Federal News Network added an editor’s note to … “clarify that the survey was a non-scientific survey of respondents who self-reported that they are current federal employees, and who were self-selected.”

    The editors … also added data from … the Office of Management and Budget, which found that 54% of the federal workforce was required to show up at an office every day. …

    Jared Serbu, the deputy editor of Federal News Network, said he and his colleagues were taken aback by how his organization’s clearly unscientific survey had somehow been transformed into a defining statistic about federal employees. “It was a survey of our niche audience for our niche audience,” Serbu said. “Nobody’s ever been confused about it before this.”

    Yeah, well, it confused Republicans, from top down, because they’re gullible dumbasses who only hear what they want to hear. So much so, in fact, that Elon turned the 6% number into 1%; where he got 1% is unclear, he probably pulled it straight out of his ass.

    In due course, the media and other fact-checkers tried to set things aright:

    Later in December, a TV report cited the editor’s note and labeled the 6% number as “false.” At about the same time, PolitiFact looked at Musk’s claim that only 1% of federal workers show up to work each day and labeled it “pants on fire,” the fact-checking site’s lowest rating for a statement that is “not accurate and makes a ridiculous claim.”

    Do you think Republicans accepted the correction? Of course not!

    That should have ended the conversation. But it didn’t. On Jan. 20 … the White House issued a statement that … said “The President will also return federal workers to work, as only 6% of employees currently work in person.”

    Trump then added,

    “You can’t work at home. They’re not working. They’re playing tennis, they’re playing golf, or they have other jobs. But they’re not working, or they’re certainly not working hard.” (Multiple news outlets noted that Trump had golfed on nine of his first 30 days in office.)

    “It’s said that we live in a post-fact society …” We sure as hell do, and Republicans are to blame.

    HHS and the heroin addict with parasitic brain worms (DEI hire) isn’t going to be involved in the authorization of chicken vaccines. It’s a different DEI hire taking care of that. She’s a lawyer.

Instead, Secretary Brain Worms be arranging for Dumbfuck to receive a pack of Trump-branded mulitvitamins, some herbal tonic, and some testosterone treatments while he dies on a vent.

    Follow up on @31: “The federal Office of Personnel Management on Monday undercut a threat by Elon Musk that government workers who fail to submit a list of their recent accomplishments will face a forced ‘resignation.’ OPM notified top government human resources officers on Monday ‘that employee responses to the OPM email’ demanding the list of workplace accomplishments ‘is voluntary,’ according to an internal email ….”

    Because he doesn’t have authority to fire civil service employees.

    Florida Rep. Cory Mills was named in an arrest warrant issued today for some kind of violent assault that took place last week at the luxury penthouse apartment where Mills stays in DC. The 27-year-old victim was not the 54 year old Representative’s wife who is at their family home in Orlando.

    Metro DC Police however were unable to execute the warrant when it was discovered that the US Attorneys at DOJ had declined to sign the warrant.

    Do I need to tell anyone what party Rep. Mills belongs to?

    Metro DC Police however were unable to execute the warrant when it was discovered that the US Attorneys at DOJ had declined to sign the warrant.

    D.C. police told the I-Team they sent an arrest warrant to the U.S. attorney’s office on Friday. The warrant has not been signed. Police said the case was sent back to them for further investigation. The U.S. attorney’s office said it does not comment on uncharged cases.

    Sources familiar with how cases are handled say this type of back-and-forth is not uncommon and may never result in charges.

    Oklahoma went 66% for Trump
    “600 federal civilian employees at Tinker Air Force Base in Oklahoma City will be terminated tomorrow morning… Tinker Air Force Base, the largest single-site employer in Oklahoma, relies heavily on its civilian workforce to maintain its daily operations.”

    No, he wouldn’t. All it takes is him deciding to violate the Constitution, and Republican support for violating it, which he already has. As the article further notes,

    Trump’s path to power beyond his current term will not come through the electoral process.

    We are led to believe that guy is smart.

    Elon Musk decided to twat that Mexican Multi-Billionaire is an organized crime figure. Elon likely won’t be vacationing in Puerto Vallarta ever because that’s libel.

    And as a result, Slim decided to cancel a $7B deal with Space X / Starlink and has pulled out of negotiations for $22B in future investments for his America Movil, the 7th largest telecommunications company in the world.

    The big fallout is America Movil is the primary and sometimes exclusive cell carrier in 25 nations which are now closed to Starlink subscribers.

    Space X is privately held but it is estimated the $28B represents as much 70% of Space X’s revenue projections over the next five years.

    Rain and gusty winds pummeled western Washington Monday night, and power was knocked out for thousands of customers, including in urban neighborhoods like Fremont in North Seattle.

    The outages come at a particularly vulnerable time. Last week, the Trump administration cut 430 positions at the Bonneville Power Administration (BPA), which is 15% of its total workforce. BPA owns three-quarters of the Pacific Northwest’s high-voltage network, and power companies rely on its services.

    “These are literally the people who keep the lights on and now they’re being fired on a whim because Trump and Elon Musk do not have a clue,” said Sen. Patty Murray, D-Washington, in a post on X with video of her recent speech.

    Elon is proving to the world he’s too capricious to do business with. As an aside, I’m pretty sure Carlos Slim still refers to the Gulf of Mexico by its right name. P.S., how many millions of U.S. taxpayer dollars will be squandered reprinting countless maps and school books?

    Although I do see the point of coercing the AP over the name change. If Trump can’t even push around a news organization, how weak does that make him look? It’s a huge political risk, though, because what if he loses such a little political fight?

    “My view is that we should never have to comment on any story where it’s based on unnamed sources,” he said, adding, “We would never, ever jeopardize our national security, ever, with allies like Canada, ever.”

    I don’t believe him. The U.S. recently voted with Russia in the U.N. Security Council, and Trump is talking about invading Canada. I think Canada needs its own nuclear weapons, to deter the Russian ally on its southern border.

    Here’s 21 separate, independent, verified pieces of evidence that DOGE plans to steal personal information from federal databases, presumably to coerce, intimidate, and or punish Trump opponents and critics.

    Twenty-one civil service employees resigned en masse from Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency, according to a letter posted online and shared with media outlets Tuesday.

    The letter said they refused to use their technical expertise to “compromise core government systems, jeopardize Americans’ sensitive data, or dismantle critical public services.”

    “We swore to serve the American people and uphold our oath to the Constitution across presidential administrations,” wrote the staffers, who joined when the agency was known as the United States Digital Service (USDS). “However, it has become clear that we can no longer honor those commitments at the United States DOGE Service.”

    If Trump and Musk weren’t planning to misuse this access to information, and misuse the information, there would be no need for 21 honest government employees to give up their employment in order to honor their oaths and avoid being ordered to commit criminal behavior.

    Spanberger called the Democrats’ campaign strategy “a failure”

    The choice of the words “campaign” and “strategy” would claim that the topic of her critique, what the author of Dumbfuck’s source called “promoting the policy of redirecting funds away from police departments, was actually adopted by a party campaign somewhere as part of that party campaign’s strategy.

    Of 109 budgets analyzed, 91 agencies have upped police funding by at least 2%.

    Cutting police funding was never a party strategy, nor was it ever strategy incorporated into a party funded campaign.

    Democrat-run cities spend more money on policing than Republican-run cities, with the 25 largest Democrat-run cities spending 38 percent more on policing per capita than the 25 largest Republican-run cities.

    Of the 25 largest cities, 20 saw increases in their police budgets from FY 2019 to FY 2022. Twenty-one of these cities are run by Democrats.

    The 25 largest cities saw their police budgets grow by a total of 5 percent from FY 2019 to FY 2022.

    Democrat-run cities have more police per capita than Republican-run cities. The 25 largest Democrat-run cities employ 75 percent more police officers per capita than the 25 largest Republican-run cities.

    At the federal level, President Joe Biden and Democrats sponsored and secured passage of the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA), which provides federal resources to support police departments. Republicans voted against President Biden’s ARPA, which included $350 million in federal funding to hire more police.

    The troll comes here to lie, constantly.

    Glad to see the power is back on in Freeland.

    You can say the same about public school funding as well.

    After facing angry questions from constituents at a town hall last week, Georgia Republican Rep. Rich McCormick is back on Capitol Hill with a new message for Elon Musk and the Department of Government Efficiency: Show a little compassion. …

    “I think some of their actions have been too rapid to adapt to — for real people. I mean, you’re talking about Republicans, too. We’re not just talking about Democrats,” he said.

    Which states are going to lose seats in 2030?

    The blue ones. To ask the question is to admit you have not been paying attention.

    Democrats’ Crisis of the Future: The Biggest States That Back Them Are Shrinking

    • Population shifts to the South could reduce Democrats’ path to winning the House or White House in the long term.

    • Projections show Democratic states losing up to 12 House seats and Electoral College votes to Republican states by 2030.

    • Democrats may need to focus on southern swing states or flip Texas and Florida to remain competitive in future elections.

    Fear not, Democrats. In addition to David Hogg, you’ll have Beto! (TX) and Nikki Fried (FL) on your team in 2030!

    Ukraine is so desperate for US military aid that it dropped its demand that such aid be guaranteed.

    However, the agreement omits any reference to US security guarantees which Kyiv had originally insisted on in return for agreeing to the deal.

    Translation: Zelensky has no intention of stepping down. Here and now is good enough to him, because without here and now he’ll go down in history as a bigger loser than Yassir Arafat.

    So, unlike Arafat, he’ll take the deal.

    If only prosecutorial misconduct were isolated to Oklahoma we could all relax and forget about it.

    But hundreds sit wrongfully convicted on death rows all over the US because of the casual routine of prosecutorial misconduct. Brady violations, Batson violations, and Napue violations are so common and rampant in many jurisdictions that it’s a miracle that any of those put to death are guilty at all. And that’s before we ever grapple with the even more routine misconduct of police officers lying on affidavits, coercing false testimony, and destroying evidence before prosecutors even see the file.
