  1. The fired SECNAV did cancel the Comstellation class FFG , of which tge first couple were supposed to be based in Everett. Ordered in the first term, the whole idea was to take an off the shelf design, with limited modifications, and get it deployed. Instead they practically redid the original Italian design. He replaced it with a modified version of the Coast Guard’s National Security Cutter. Theoretically first hill should be ready by 2028. Different shipyards, Comstellation was being built in Wisconsin.

  2. It’s all about what the Zionist oligarchs want. That group owns and controls the US government, and they have some very nasty recordings/photos of US officials, via Epstein’s operation. That’s why this shit is occurring.

  4. This is what fake news looks like in real life:

    A Fox and Friends segment was supposed to feature the on-the-spot opinions of random diners at a Columbus, Ohio restaurant. Juliet Jeske, who runs the X account Decoding Fox News, posted on Friday that reporter Lawrence Jones was actually interviewing members of Turning Point USA, the conservative group founded by Charlie Kirk.

  5. 4,
    Salena Zito was caught doing that staged “heartland” diner schtick in 2016 for CNN using local Republican party officials.

    The classics never go out of style.

    But it is some indication of the decline in media that ten years later they are staging these fake interviews with actual Xtian white supremacists openly promoting a whites-only America where Jews and other non-Xtian whites must either convert or face extermination.

    The style of Republicans has changed a lot thanks to MAGA.

  6. 3) Been observing on Social Media people thinking Grand Juries are convictions because none of that defense allowed. Too bad they are anonymous, could such comments be used by a defense lawyer to challenge for cause during Jury Selection?

  7. Democrats think it’s funny that the new acting Secretary of the Navy is an Asian-heritage guy only 5’8″.

    So they must also think it’s funny that past and future failed Democrat presidential candidate and homosexual Mayor Pete, is also only 5’8″. On a good day, while wearing his shorter pair of lifts.

    Isn’t that right, G-clown?

  8. @ 4, 5

    … that staged “heartland” diner schtick …

    It’s clear that neither are you aware that the interview with TP USA people at the restaurant was publicised in The Columbus Dispatch the day before the event:

    Turning Point USA’s national campus tour stop at Ohio State University on April 21 will be followed by an Ohio-based “FOX & Friends” segment the next day.

    On April 22, Lawrence Jones of “Fox & Friends” will broadcast a live segment from Tee Jaye’s Country Place at 4048 W. Broad St.
    …
    Turning Point USA, a Phoenix-based conservative nonprofit focused on college campuses, regularly hosts multi-stop tours at universities nationwide aimed at engaging students on political and cultural issues. Ohio State is one of several stops on the group’s tour this year.

    Congratulations on your bombshell nothingburger. You guys looking forward to having all of the Democrat plants at your upcoming town halls with “undecided voters” exposed?

  10. Isn’t that right, G-clown?

    No clue – you should go ask a Heterosexual Neanderthal.

    But you seem infatuated with gay people, go see a shrink regarding your Neanderthalism.

  11. 6,

    Social media research is a pretty standard part of jury selection these days. But it’s limited to verified accounts that can be directly tied to the individual pool member via email, etc. And since most MAGA assholes post their ignorant rants anonymously it’s unlikely to show up.

    But in answer to your question, if I understand you, if a jury pool member were shown to have expressed the sincere belief that any person accused but not convicted is presumed guilty before trial that jury pool member would be excused for cause.

    It’s far more common to uncover a social media history expressing specific bias affecting parties involved in the case, rather than an outright refusal to grant due process, irrespective of bias.

  12. 7,
    A troll who comes here almost exclusively to lie about shit offers us an anonymous post from a platform that is dominated by overseas bot farm accounts and monetizes AI generated infant porn. And we are expected to accept the liar’s claims that this anonymous post on a child porn site flooded with overseas bots in Africa and SE Asia is somehow a true representation of “Democrats”.

    Meanwhile the Insane Failing Cult Leader the lying troll has never once stopped defending continues to refer to non-whites with racial epithets and demeaning stereotypes on the daily.

    Weak Nazi clown.

  13. @ 6

    Been observing on Social Media people thinking Grand Juries are convictions because none of that defense allowed.

    Been observing for years on HA that libbies think unsubstantiated allegations are convictions.

    Because nearly always their lies and their hate are all they have.

  14. Tonight our president will attend the WH Correspondents’ Dinner.

    Say, anyone remember the 2011 Dinner?

    According to the guy who wrote that infamous joke, Maggie Haberman at the NYT and Adam Gopnik from the New Yorker each believed it to be the moment The Donald decided that #CrookedHillary’s 15 minutes were up.

  15. News Nation is reporting that the Iran delegation has left Islamabad without even speaking with the Americans (Witkoff and Kushner). Since the Americans have lied, cheated and killed throughout this entire clusterfuck, the Iranians have made a logical decision.

    THERE IS NO REASON FOR THE U.S. TO HAVE THIS RIDICULOUS WAR WITH IRAN! ANYONE WHO WANTS THIS SHIT SHOULD BE GIVEN AN M-16 AND TOLD TO “HAVE AT IT, CHIEF” AND “GOOD LUCK WITH THAT!”

  16. 6,
    Just an addition to clarify the process, since it sounds like you may not have ever served on a jury or gone through voir dire (selection).

    It varies a lot by court, but at some point it’s an almost universal part of the process for pool members to state under oath that they understand that it is their duty if selected to consider the trial testimony and evidence without bias, and to grant a full presumption of innocence to the accused before they are even seated. This is often accomplished via jury pool forms ahead of the portion of voir dire that you see portrayed in media. Or other times the judge will put the entire pool through a series of “raise your hand” exercises in court before turning the pool over to the individual attorneys. All parties are present for this and receive completed copies of any jury selection forms.

    So any pool member who has indicated affirmatively during selection that they understand and agree with their duty to grant a presumption of innocence, but who has also previously posted social media declaring the opposite would be regarded as dishonest before the court. That’s bad. So once the evidence of the social media declarations were provided to the judge it becomes their duty to remove that person from the pool. And they’d normally also get a bit of a scolding interrogation from the judge in the process that might include threats of criminal charges. But normally just threats. Still, it’s very unwise to lie to judges in any way. So don’t ever do it.

  17. Been observing for years on HA that libbies think unsubstantiated allegations are convictions.

    The Insane Failing Cult Leader has been unanimously criminally convicted of 34 felony counts by a randomly selected impartial jury of seven men and five women, all subject to the same voir dire process that I’ve described here, and subject to challenge by the attorneys appointed by Fat Hitler to represent him.

    Why on earth would the lying troll invite us to remind him of this?

    Dumb Nazi clown.

  18. 15,
    The only good option for the United States at this point is to just stop.

    But for the Insane Failing Cult Leader and his cult of MAGA chuds, like the troll posting here, politically that is at best only the least worst of many options. And all of the alternative options are far too complex for most of them to ever understand. So that leaves the cult frozen in an intermediate state of confusion and frustration, waiting for their cult leader to decide their fate for them.

    There is a huge downside potential for this to result in a decision to simply “burn it all down” and take the worst possible option.
    And that option would likely involve direct, verifiable orders through the chain of command to carry out widespread attacks on the civilian population of Iran.

  19. @ 17,

    He has been held liable in federal court as a sex offender too!

    And that also followed many years of legal process and thousands of opportunities to present a defense. But he lost anyway.
    Coincidence?

  21. @8

    So cute Fox airs the segment pretending it’s on the up and up, never mentions these are ‘plants’ to their few hundred thousand viewers but the astute few who are also reading TPMs press releases it’s disclosed.

    Dumbfuck thinks it’s fine and ethical.

    Cool

  23. This isn’t going to end until Iran agrees to buy $1b in Trumpcoin in exchange for being allowed to enrich Uranium

  24. @7 Choosing presidential candidates based on their physical height is a better system than the current GOP nominating practice, but that doesn’t say much of anything for the latter, does it?

  25. The likelihood of tossing a fair coin and getting “heads” 34 times in a row is about one in 17 billion.

  26. @8 Which is fine, as long as they disclose it’s a prearranged sit down with a partisan group, and don’t pretend they’re interviewing random voters.

    So, did the Fox & Friends segment disclose that? I strongly get the impression they did not.

  27. @13 Been observing for years on HA that libbies think unsubstantiated allegations are convictions.

    Just a friendly reminder that Trump was not only indicted by a grand jury, but also convicted by a thoroughly vetted jury, and that conviction stands (i.e., hasn’t been set aside on appeal).

    And on this blog, when it comes to equating accusation with guilt, you are without peer.

  28. @14 Tonight our president your favorite convicted felon will attend the WH Correspondents’ Dinner. ftfy

  29. @16 I was once in a courtroom where a defendant was accused of making a bomb threat while robbing a bank, so the judge asked the prospective jurors if they had ever experienced a terrorist attack. A woman began screaming and sobbing uncontrollably. Neither the judge nor anyone else said anything while she totally went to pieces, until the woman sitting next to her finally said, “Your Honor, she was in the Twin Towers during the 9/11 attacks.” She not only didn’t make it onto the jury, she had to be assisted out of the courtroom. A bad case of PTSD will get you out of jury duty every time.

  30. What Musk says will solve unemployment

    “Universal HIGH INCOME via checks issued by the Federal government is the best way to deal with unemployment caused by AI,” Musk wrote in a post on X, according to Moneywise.

    That is not a universal basic income proposal. Musk is describing something more ambitious: a high level of income distributed broadly across society. This would not be just a floor to cover basic needs, but a meaningful check that allows people to participate in an economy increasingly run by machines.

    When a commenter pushed back on Musk’s post, questioning whether abundance would make money meaningless, Musk doubled down.

    “AI/Robotics will mean everyone can have a penthouse if they want. The output of goods and services will be several orders of magnitude higher than today’s economy,” he wrote, according to Moneywise. “What is the future you want? Amazing abundance seems the best to me.”

    Awwww… poor kreepfuck.. it’s beloved elmo has turned commie..

    Heh.. let’s hear it kreepfuck.. work.. work.. work.. work.. 2 jobs.. 3 jobs.. no minimum wage! if only they’d work for nuthin’ – they’d still have a jerb! Lazeee libs!

    hahahahahahaha.. kreepfuck will keep fellatin’ elmo because it believes in its black heart of hearts, that elmo is a bigger fuckin’ liar than kreepfuck can ever dream of being.

  31. Dumbfuck thinks it’s fine and ethical.

    He protests that it’s fine and ethical to falsely present an audience as randomly representative.

    Because by protesting thusly, he projects the idea that openly biased media is “fair”. When it’s nothing more than MAGA cult propaganda. Which both FOX and Newsmax have admitted under oath is their carefully planned media business model.

    In this case an openly bigoted, white supremacist youth group coordinates their campus tour with the producers of Fox and Friends to bamboozle their aging, liver-spotted audience of diabetic shut-ins while simultaneously engaging in Nazi Youth outreach, audience development, and Nazi Youth leadership networking. It’s lying as a business model.

    Ultimately it’s just another kind of lying. Same as all the rest of it.

  32. 29,
    I was there once when a pool member raised their hand when asked if they could agree to grant the accused the presumption of innocence before hearing the evidence. The defendant happened to be black. The prospective juror used the “n” word in describing why he would be unable to presume innocence. The judge cleared the court and then proceeded to engage in a quite withering interrogation of said prospective juror. Contempt was threatened. But he saved himself with an apology, which I personally did not find very credible. This particular judge has a Black spouse. I imagine she may have taken that into account when deciding to let the fucker off.

    A half day of voir dire was lost so that a new pool could be brought in.

  33. @31 Fox isn’t “openly biased media.” It’s a PR shop for Trumpism and, more broadly, the Republican Party. The job of everyone who works there is to peddle the personal views of the very rich guy who owns it.

  34. The very rich guy who owns Fox has three children. Two of them don’t share his reactionary views. He didn’t cut them out of his will; he only cut them out of Fox’s management.

  36. @31

    I said no three decades ago and asked the judge if I could approach before answering. I quietly explained I worked for a consumer advocate attorney and I know in a liability case against a multinational if it’s gotten to jury selection , Defendant’s attorneys have lost every motion to dismiss, request for summary judgement and tried to bury the plaintiffs in threats and paperwork so I really can’t be impartial.

    She sent me on my way with a smirk.

  37. @35 Yes, some media are biased toward reporting the truth, and putting their opinions on clearly-labeled editorial pages.

  39. @36 Many people want to get on a jury, and are disappointed when they’re challenged for cause or dismissed with a peremptory challenge, but some folks want to get out of jury duty because of work commitments, child care, school classes, or whatever.

    Getting out of jury duty is a fine art. As a lawyer, it’s not appropriate for me to offer advice on how to get kicked out of a jury pool, but I can tell stories. I recall a woman who was called to a jury in a civil case, and the void dire went like this:

    LAWYER: Are you employed?

    JUROR: Yes, I’m an assistant prosecuting attorney in [name of county].

    LAWYER: Why do you suppose lawyers don’t want other lawyers on their juries?

    JUROR: Well, maybe they’re afraid a lawyer in jury deliberations would ignore the jury instructions and persuade the other jurors to go with her opinion of what the law is, but I won’t do that.

    The questioning ended right there and the lawyer promptly exercised one of his peremptories.

  40. 35,

    All media exhibit bias. This is true.

    But as I’ve pointed out here a few times in the past, there is a categorical difference between exhibiting bias in how objectively verifiable true events are reported, and simply ignoring objectively verifiable truth and instead reporting lies.

    Fox, as just one example, has freely admitted under oath that they deliberately misinform their audience by presenting claims they know objectively to be false. That’s very different from presenting objective truth but in a way that exhibits bias.

    Fox admitted under oath that they knew the claims about rigging of election machine software were objectively untrue. They knew those claims were objectively untrue claims at the time they reported to their audience the exact opposite, that the claims were true.

    An example of media bias would be, for example, continuing to focus their reporting on the existence of the false claims, while admitting the falsehood behind the claims.

    Another example might be Newsmax host Chris Planted informing his audience that candidate Vance’s claims that Haitian migrants were eating Ohio “cats and dogs” were “100% true”. When in fact there were and are no such original reports from anyone in Ohio at the time. That is an objectively untrue claim being reported as “100% true”. While exhibiting bias around reporting such claims would certainly start with any decision to report on them at all until they have been tracked down and verified.

    The fact that you don’t understand this difference leaves you permanently vulnerable to the influence of any liar capable of winning your affections. I’m guessing you’d drive a Tesla if you could afford one. And the reason you can’t might have something to do with a lifetime of very weak salary negotiations in which you consistently believed your employer’s lies.

  41. 36,

    There is no presumption of innocence in a civil trial, the burdens of proof are different, and judgement is typically rendered by a simple majority of the jury.

  42. @42

    I think the question had more to do with Bias against the product and not prejudging before hearing evidence.

  43. In still more unsurprising news, Federal Court finds right to seek asylum is established law and Donnie’s executive order to refuse claims at the border is illegal.

  44. Donnie’s executive order to refuse claims at the border is illegal.

    Where’s baldy miller to scream “communist judges!” for our entertainment?

    Been pretty quiet lately but with the scotus shadow docket, perhaps there’s no need at the moment.

  45. Donnie big mad oversight is going to ask questions in January.

    NYT

    To build his mammoth White House ballroom, President Trump last summer chose Maryland-based Clark Construction. Since then, Mr. Trump has repeatedly sung the company’s praises, even saying he wanted it to refurbish projects all over Washington.

    In January, government documents show, the Trump administration secretly gave the company a no-bid contract to do another job at a sharply inflated price.

    The National Park Service wanted to repair two ornamental fountains in Lafayette Park, across Pennsylvania Avenue from the White House. The Biden administration in 2022 had estimated the work would cost $3.3 million. But Mr. Trump’s government agreed to pay Clark $11.9 million to do it, and later added tasks that increased the contract to $17.4 million, the documents show.

  46. Katie’s first real job not going very well.

    Tennessee Governor Bill Lee rolled out the red carpet for Starbucks during a press conference on Tuesday, saying the people of Tennessee have made the state a business-friendly environment and the “envy” of many states.

    “We are extremely grateful for you and Brian for your team,” Governor Lee said.

    Local perspective:
    The message is sharply different from Seattle Mayor Katie Wilson when she encouraged a crowd to boycott the company shortly after she was elected mayor. The statement was made in front of a crowd during a Starbucks workers rally in November.

    “I am not buying Starbucks and you should not too,” Mayor Wilson said.

    She’s the embodiment of Josh Lyman in that WW episode during which Josh causes a US senator to switch his affiliation to the GOP.

    Instead she’ll cause Starbucks to switch its HQ location to a deep red state.

    Mayor Katie made it a whole lot easier for Starbucks to explain why they’re bugging out of the shithole that Seattle is rapidly becoming.

  47. she’ll cause Starbucks to switch its HQ location to a deep red state.

    GOOD!

    The fewer SB drive throughs in this State the better. More space for way better coffee from outfits who treat their employees better.

  49. Uhhh.. file this under “we toldja so..”

    This Scammer Used an AI-Generated MAGA Girl to Grift ‘Super Dumb’ Men [like widbee kreepfuck]

    when Sam started posting generic photos of a beautiful, scantily clad woman on Instagram, he was dismayed to find that none of the content was hitting. He turned to Gemini for advice.

    the chatbot selected one in particular: the “MAGA/conservative niche,” referring to it as a “cheat code.” Plus, it said, “the conservative audience (especially older men in the US) often has higher disposable income and is more loyal.”

    Sam created Emily Hart, a registered nurse and Jennifer Lawrence look-alike. On an Instagram account for Emily, @emily_hart.nurse, Sam posted photos of her ice fishing, drinking Coors Light, and shooting off a few rounds at the rifle range, with emoji-laden captions like “If you want a reason to unfollow: Christ is king, abortion is murder, and all illegals must be deported,”

    The grift seemed almost too obvious, but to Sam’s astonishment, he says the account “blew up.”

    “I was spending maybe 30 to 50 minutes of my day, and I was making good money for a medical student,” he says. “In India, even in professional jobs, you can’t make this amount of money. I haven’t seen any easier way to make money online.”

    http://archive.today/2026.04.2.....aga-girls/

    Reel in them kreepfucks, Sam..

  50. Secret Service shot someone in the lobby. Or maybe they’re in custody. No one else injured. Good thing all of America’s top DC reporters are half in the bag taking a night off.

    Wolff blitzed, “unbelievable the shooter got through a metal detector!” As of now there’s A: no report of shots other than secret service B: No indication ‘shooter’ in secure area.

  51. At least this time we don’t have anyone from MSNBC claiming it was celebratory fireworks.

  52. Luke Ressert.

    Despite now released footage of nearly everyone actually in the room, barely reacting Including Trump and all of the people around him,

    Luke Russert:
    “ When I heard the shots, I ran down the aisle in the center of the room towards the president figuring that would be the safest place to be.”

    Really dude you thought during a potential assassination attempt charging the president was your best move? I’d say your judgment is questionable from a news standpoint and generally, in trying to make up a story to put Yourself at the center of the action.

  53. Trump Always Chickens Out.

    CNN, 58 min ago

    Trump wants to come back, but Secret Service does not want him to, per source

  54. Hey, why is Kash Patel able to stand during the press conference? Isn’t he always falling-down drunk? They even put him front of a microphone and let him speak without notes.

    It’s like….

    like…

    the allegations are bullshit.

  55. I’d say that Donald Trump’s third term is now assured. Hell, now even Goldy will vote for him.

  57. KKKarolune tell CNN this is true and we believe it.

    Sorry bud the Adderall has worn off and he is no longer in any condition to be on a camera

  58. Nobody tried to assassinate Jimmah after the world realized he was useless.

    For this same reason nobody tried to assassinate Biden at all.

  60. I’d say that Donald Trump’s third term is now assured.

    Rogan bros will even sign up to die in Iran for Israel..

  70. @66

    That didn’t take long. IF. And that’s a big if y’all have the right guy he was ‘teacher of the month’ at C2, a nationwide chain of SAT Prep courses.

    Unaccredited. Not actually a school. For hire tutoring. Unregulated by Kamala or anyone in the state.

    The lies have started from the right.

    Good post.

  72. In other news (yes, there is other news),

    An appeals court on Friday overturned an $8.2 million defamation judgment won by Roy Moore, marking a significant reversal in a legal battle tied to misconduct allegations that have shadowed the former Alabama chief justice for years.

    The 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals vacated a lower court decision that had awarded Moore damages in 2022 after he sued Democratic-aligned Senate Majority PAC over statements tied to accusations of sexual misconduct made during his 2017 U.S. Senate campaign.

  73. And there it is. The flag to be falsed

    Trump: “I didn’t want to say this, but this is why we have to have the ballroom.”

  74. Rather than give Trump an unconstitutional third term, let’s regulate guns. Arming nutcases is a GOP idea I’ve never agreed with.

  76. Doctor Dumbfuck, as usual, is celebrating violence.

    Nah.
    He’s just lying again. Every occasion is just another opportunity.

    It’s pathetic.

  78. The video from behind the dais shows the Insane Failing Cult Leader remaining frozen in place in his chair while the entire rest of the stage clears in a big hurry.

    Your media elites, their corporate bosses, and their sponsors are not.

  84. We can always depend on the former male prostitute and longtime fever swamp creature, Ali Alexander for a laugh:

    Ali Alexander, the far-right activist who organized the Stop the Steal campaign in the wake of the 2020 presidential election, has a slightly different take on the assassination, claiming instead that it was further evidence that Trump is the Antichrist, something many MAGA figures have also been considering this week.

    “To be clear: if Donald Trump didn’t receive a miracle, then it was deception or a dark sign,” Alexander wrote in a five-page PDF he posted to his Telegram channel on Tuesday evening. “There is biblical prophecy in Revelation 13:3 apparently about the Antichrist being struck on the head.”

    The passage in question actually reads: “I saw that one of its heads seemed to have been mortally wounded, but this mortal wound was healed. Fascinated, the whole world followed after the beast.”

  85. A few excerpts from WIRED that illustrate the clown car that was Elmo’s shitler youth aka DOGE:

    Starting February 3, 2025, we started to lose access to our emails and systems. We had no idea if that meant people were being put on administrative leave or what.

    At the same time, there was an Ebola outbreak in Uganda, and it was a priority for the National Security Council for USAID to respond to. And I was telling these political appointees, you know, “You just locked everybody out of the system who would be needed to respond to that.” And they would respond to me and be like, “Oh, no, I’m so sorry. This is DOGE. DOGE is shutting people off.”

    It was this constant struggle between the political appointees who had been sort of tasked with conducting a smooth what they call “drawdown” of USAID on the one hand, and DOGE on the other hand who really did not care at all. There was a freeze of all foreign aid, and then there was a waiver for lifesaving humanitarian assistance.

    When I gave a presentation about the work the global health group did, Borkert, the political appointee and chief of staff, jumped in and said, “I’m so surprised that you guys do all this work. When I think of what USAID does in global health, I just assumed it was all abortions.”

  86. Dude clearly was one of yours, reports CBS News.

    The suspect’s writings under review by investigators stated he wanted to specifically target administration officials, a senior U.S. official told CBS News. Authorities found anti-Trump and anti-Christian rhetoric on the suspect’s social media accounts, the official said.

    Allen sent some of his writings to members of his family before the attempted attack on Saturday, and one of them alerted police about the writings.
    …
    The official said Allen was part of a group called “The Wide Awakes” and attended a “No Kings” protest in California.

    Pre-Weiss this would not have been reported by CBS News.

  87. @ 78

    The video from behind the dais shows the Insane Failing Cult Leader remaining frozen in place in his chair …

    There was concern that it might merely have been an “exploding teleprompter”, like the last time, Elijah.

  88. Railfan’s love of the locomotive is a thinly disguised secret desire to tie The Donald to the tracks in front of one.

    Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche told “Face the Nation with Margaret Brennan” that investigators believe the suspect was staying at the Washington Hilton, where the White House Correspondents’ Dinner was held, and traveled to Washington, D.C., by train.

  92. There there is this, too – from CNN aticle.

    While at CalTech, he was a member of the school’s Christian fellowship and the nerf club, according to his LinkedIn profile.

    Yeah, i guess Liberals like religion too.

    Same article says he donated $25.00 to Kamala Harris.

    A WOPPING $25!

    “The official said Allen was part of a group called “The Wide Awakes” and attended a “No Kings” protest in California.”

    I guess one can’t have a change of heart. And be upset that you voted for someone that you then disagree with, so you go out and joing a “No Kings” protest.

    One day, I joined a Black Lives Mattter protest in NYC. I was riding around on a bike, came acrsoos the protest, and decided to observe it all. I guess that made me an ultra Black Lives Matter activist.

    Great evidence! Such precission, like a 6 month science experiment, summarized in one sentence and 7 words.

  93. I was asleept at the wheel and I have been duped, but now I am “Wide Awake” after crashing into a tree. I was never woke.

  94. Pre-Weiss this would not have been reported by CBS News.

    Quite the big proclaimation without any reality to it. ALSO KNOW AS GREAT BIG LIE.

    BOB SUCKS HORSES’ COCKS.

  97. @84 There’s nothing miraculous about super-tight security … working. The Secret Service, not some divine power, stopped this guy at the perimeter security set up to do exactly that.

  98. @86 He’s not one of ours. Democrats don’t go around saying Republicans should be “executed.” That’s your party’s shtick. He’s a deranged nutcase; and it’s Republicans, not Democrats, who call for political violence and put guns in the hands of people like him.

  99. @88 Case in point: The deranged troll takes the most innocuous poster on HA and imputes to him a desire to tie Trump to train tracks to suffer a gory death by being run over by a train.

    Know what? I think the deranged troll is expressing his own secret desire to push someone off a subway platform.

  100. Dude clearly was one of yours, reports CBS News.

    Why not double down on the LA school teacher lie?

    Or bleat about the ballroom some more?

    LPT: the White House does not host the WHCD. Never has. 🤡

  101. @96 Technically, that’s true. He hired people to do it for him. But having other people bloody their hands on his behalf doesn’t make him innocent.

  102. As a would-be presidential assassin, he will should spend the rest of his life behind bars. But to put him there, you need a competent federal prosecutor, which Jeanine Pirro is not.

    This is where Trump’s replacing professional federal prosecutors with partisan hacks whose only qualification is being willing to go after his opponents and critics may come back at him to bite his ass.

    The guy conceivably could be out of jail on bond in a couple days given he’s only charged with assault and gun possession.

  103. Capitalism is working according to plan.

    Utilities issued 94.9 million final disconnect notices to residential electric customers in 2024, signaling just how many more households were teetering on the edge of losing service.

    Meanwhile, utility companies profited more than $52 billion in 2024, up almost $3.5 billion from 2023.”

  104. The guy conceivably could be out of jail on bond in a couple days given he’s only charged with assault and gun possession.

    The judge will order a psych eval. Then his charges will get amended.

  105. @I01

    Pinot Pirro was of course making statements of motive on Fox before a single bit of investigation happened.

    Competence all around.

  106. “Dude” was apparently a big fan of Director Kashyup Pramod Patel.

    So obviously a political opponent of MAGA. /s

  107. @ 98

    Democrats don’t go around saying Republicans should be “executed.”

    Shorter RR: “Liberals must arm? What? Who? Me?”

    Western Lensman
    @WesternLensman

    Bash: You and many Democrats have used some heated rhetoric against the president. Do you think twice about that when something like this happens?

    Raskin: What rhetoric?

    7:23 AM · Apr 26, 2026

    Jamie Raskin lies with such impunity that it cause his son to commit suicide.
    ·

  108. So far no threats of any kind of violence from “Dude” on his main BSky account. It’s been my experience that BSky isn’t very tolerant of that sort of thing.

    I once made a sarcastic joke referencing a very obscure early 1970s TV show called The Immortal, suggesting I wanted to collect some of actor Scott Glenn’s blood (he’s 87 and fitter and healthier than anyone you know). I got a three day suspension.

  109. Because Trump Always Chickens Out.

    Rapid Response 47
    @RapidResponse47
    .
    @jonkarl says @POTUS called him shortly after 7AM:

    “He was calling to see if I was ok with what happened last night…he reiterated many of the things he said in his press conference last night, emphasizing the unity he felt in that moment…and he was quite firm about this: ‘That dinner must be rescheduled.’”

    7:03 AM · Apr 26, 2026

    At the rescheduled dinner he’ll be the star of the show. Fox and CBS will pre-empt usual coverage to carry it.

    Maybe they can reschedule it to coincide with Colbert being kicked off the air.
    ·

  110. @108 For years, conservatives have spewed exterminationist rhetoric against liberals. For years, conservatives have armed themselves to the teeth and bragged about it.

    Whether you like it or not, liberals have Second Amendment rights too, whiny windbag. And conservatives have given them a Niagara of reasons to exercise them.

    So you can go pound sand.

  111. @ 109

    So far no threats of any kind of violence from “Dude” on his main BSky account. It’s been my experience that BSky isn’t very tolerant of that sort of thing.

    It’s been my experience that Goldy is.

  112. Shorter RR: “Liberals must arm? What? Who? Me?”

    For defense from violent always wrong wingers..

    Based on our own research and a review of related work, we can confidently say that most domestic terrorists in the U.S. are politically on the right, and right-wing attacks account for the vast majority of fatalities from domestic terrorism.

    https://theconversation.com/right-wing-extremist-violence-is-more-frequent-and-more-deadly-than-left-wing-violence-what-the-data-shows-265367

  113. heated rhetoric

    Fuck off, you Nazi!

    How’s that? Does it make you feel an uncontrollable urge to gun up?

    Why?

    Day after day, comment after comment, all any of on here talk about is ABSOLUTELY AND IRREVERSIBLY CRUSHING MAGA AUTHORITARIAN FASCISM AND TRUMPIAN WHITE SUPREMACY INTO NON EXISTENCE.

    That doesn’t come close to how anonymous right wing online discourse is completely dominated by calls for political violence targeting “leftists”, “libbies”, “socialists”, and “trannies”.

    MAGA Snowflakes demand a safe space without political criticism of their failures.

  114. @110 Rescheduling a heavily-guarded event isn’t the same thing as getting shot at in Vietnam. He chickened out of that. I’m glad I didn’t have to share a foxhole with that spineless jellyfish.

  115. It’s been my experience that Goldy is.

    Talk about trembling.

  116. Technically, that’s true. He hired people to do it for him. But having other people bloody their hands on his behalf doesn’t make him innocent.

    Dear Leader hired the highest man too.

  117. A chaotic White House Correspondents’ Dinner, as told by NPR reporters in the room..

    “People were just finishing up their … salads, and plates were being cleared, when we heard this ‘bang, bang, bang,'” said White House Correspondent Franco Ordoñez. “And then, just, crash.”

    Everything went crashing to the floor, Ordoñez said: plates, trays and people taking shelter.

    https://www.npr.org/2026/04/26/nx-s1-5800105/white-house-correspondents-dinner-shooting-scene-trump

    Asked to babble, teh kreepee dumbfuck of widbee farted loudly,

    “wooohooo! Joy.. Fuck yeah! I didn’t pay for it!”

  118. That was some awesome security they had at the dinner. I mean who needs the bunker when you have such tight security like that!

  119. Only 2 vessels transiting in the last 24 hours.
    No negotiations.
    Brent crude at 99.92.

    You will never see $70 oil again.

  120. An Axios reporter who attended the WHCD was quoted on CNN as describing “weak wifi signal” in the ballroom at the Washington Hilton as “one of many security threats” she faced last night.

  121. Question for Bob. What are you going to label an ex-Trump fan that attempts to take the life of his dear leader?

    Nonexistent?

  122. @112 The violent people in this country are your ilk. Trump rewards them by pardoning them, and in domestic terrorist Ashli Babbitt’s case, giving her family $5 million of taxpayer money.

  123. What are you going to label an ex-Trump fan that attempts to take the life of his dear leader?

    The guy at Mar a Lago. The registered Republican in Butler PA. Maybe this “Dude”.

    The most dangerous Americans the Insane Failing Cult Leader faces are his own dissafected MAGA cult chuds. Because they are already well marinated in the rhetoric of political violence and dehumanization. But on top of that they are going through a crisis of cognitive dissonance driving them to self destruction.

  124. Backpack bomber Ashli Babbitt simply blew herself up before she had a chance to become humiliated and disappointed by her Insane Failing Cult Leader.

  125. Another first. First president that needed to claim (falsely, see Carole v. Trump) on national television

    I’m not a rapist. I didn’t rape anybody. I am not a pedophile.

    I’m not a crook…
    I did not have sexual relations…

  129. @123

    I think more should speak about his enemies on his side, as you say, that should be of his greater concern. Reverse the narrative and cause more anti-Drumpf feelings.

  132. 32 years gap between their age, her husband likes fresh meat too. No surprise.

  133. Vote for Ballroom! is becoming the new MAGA campaign slogan to replace America First.

  134. November, 1973: “I am not a crook”.

    April, 2026: “I am not a pedophile”.
