BREAKING: J.D. Vance's hometown newspaper incinerates him as a "lapdog vice president" in a scathing new editorial that has MAGA world howling with rage.

This one has gotta hurt....

"J.D. Vance has really done Ohio proud these last few weeks, hasn’t he?" begins Marilou Johanek's piece in the Ohio Capital Journal.

"The lapdog vice-president, with evidently a lot of time on his hands, has managed to be firmly rebuked by Pope Francis, denounced by outraged NATO allies and widely ridiculed for his bizarre ��masculinity’ rant at a weekend MAGAfest just a month into his tenure," she wrote. "Way to create a buzz/acute embarrassment back home!"

In one particularly scathing section of the piece, Johanek took Vance to task for claiming to be a committed Catholic while constantly espousing hateful views that run contrary to everything that Jesus Christ taught—

"'Devout Catholic' convert Vance went all glib and combative on compassion and care for the 'least of these' because they included Brown and Black mothers and fathers and children fleeing horrendous homelands for hope," she wrote.

"But upholding the dignity of every human being (native-born or not) as a core tenet of Christianity clashes with the core MAGA mission to degrade, shackle and ship terrified families back to the foreign hellscapes they fled. Vance threw nasty and mean into the mix to look tough on dehumanized 'illegals' and scorn mercy. He is a dutiful, if not decent, Trump toady," she continued.

Johanek also slammed the former senator from Ohio for his "nondescript role as an appendage in the Trump-Musk administration," an apropos description given the manner in which Vance has been playing second fiddle to MAGA oligarch Elon Musk.

"The last thing the world needs now is a U.S. vice-president trashing eighty years of foreign policy with America’s closest and most enduring friends,” Johanek went on on, ripping the disastrous foreign policy that Trump, Musk, and Vance have been forging.

And it is disastrous. In an incredibly short amount of time they have managed to alienate our European allies, justify Russia's brutal invasion of Ukraine, and irreparably shred the United States' credibility on the world stage.

Our adversaries never dreamed of an American president as lockstep with their interests as Donald Trump.

Johanek ripped Vance as a "shameless election denier" who is working for an "authoritarian regime lawlessly dismantling a democratic republic."

"He morphed from Never-Trumper to groveling suck-up for unimagined power, but he can’t quite pull it off as a poser with a makeover beard spewing stupid and offensive and strange," she wrote.

"Vance has been doing us proud by attacking friends, embracing enemies, insulting humanitarians, drawing papal ire, and pontificating laughably on what makes a man a man," she continued.

"Seriously, what is wrong with J.D.?" she concluded.

The answer? A hell of a lot.

Please retweet and ❤️ if you think that J.D. Vance is on track to be the worst vice president in American history — and consider joining the growing exodus to Tribel, a new pro-democracy social network that is exploding in popularity because Twitter and Facebook are trying to stop its growth — which is only making Tribel grow even faster.

BREAKING: Donald Trump's takeover of the Kennedy Center implodes in humiliating fashion as droves of talented celebrities abandon the legendary performing arts center in protest.

Trump is radioactive with the people he wants to impress most...

Actress Issa Rae announced on Instagram in a brief statement that she is cancelling her "An Evening With Issa Rae" event slated for next month. Tickets will be refunded.

"Unfortunately, due to what I believe to be an infringement on the values of an institution that has faithfully celebrated artists of all backgrounds through all mediums, I’ve decided to cancel my appearance at this venue," she wrote.

Trump made himself chairman of the center on Wednesday. Earlier this week he removed Biden appointees from the board and rammed in unqualified cronies including Second Lady Usha Vance and White House Chief of staff Susie Wiles.

Mega-successful television producer and writer Shonda Rhimes — the woman behind hit shows like Grey's Anatomy, Bridgerton, and Scandal among others — resigned as treasurer of the center's board yesterday.

She posted a quote from JFK on her Instagram: "If art is to nourish the roots of our culture, society must set the artist free to follow his vision wherever it takes him."

Legendary soprano Renée Fleming resigned as artistic advisor to the center and while she avoided naming Trump, she praised David M. Rubenstein — the center's former chairman who was ousted.

Singer and songwriter Ben Folds stepped down from his role as advisor to the National Symphony Orchestra, which the Kennedy Center oversees.

"Given developments at the Kennedy Center, effective today I am resigning as artistic adviser to the N.S.O. Mostly, and above all, I will miss the musicians of our nation’s symphony orchestra — just the best!" Folds wrote on Instagram.

Adam Weiner of the band Low Cut Connie has also canceled an appearance at the center next month.

"Upon learning that this institution that has run nonpartisan for 54 years is now chaired by President Trump himself and his regime, I decided I will not perform there," he wrote on social media, adding that friends and fans were going to be "directly negatively affected by this administration’s policies and messaging."

This is the kind of rejection that infuriates Donald Trump more than anything. He has long wanted to be accepted by America's cultural elites. Instead, they see him for the cruel, fascist, incompetent failure he truly is.

Slava Ukraini. Trump and MAGA are wrong and pyrrhically unAmerican. To tell a rhyme with history, Ukraine is this century's Second Spanish Republic, and America flipping to team fascism is a disgrace unparalleled in modern presidential history.

[The Halfway Post @HalfwayPost]

The unfortunate fact the fascist isolationists can't hide forever is that European peace affects American peace. America learned that lesson many times over several generations last century leading to a hegemonic triumph over totalitarianism, and now MAGA morons are making us have to learn it again.

[The Halfway Post @HalfwayPost]

Trump and MAGA are unfortunately just not very educated about global politics and history. It’s easy when you live in America not to think much about the rest of the world, and I think their isolationism comes from that ignorance with Trump as their Dunning-Kruger mascot.

[The Halfway Post @HalfwayPost]

Ukrainians are fighting for independence, liberty, and democracy, and Trump is betraying them. Who knows what he’s selling them out for, but whatever Putin is giving is stunningly less than the value of Ukrainians’ courage, yearning for freedom, and eagerness to be a US ally.

[The Halfway Post @HalfwayPost]

Zelensky offering his resignation in exchange for peace or NATO membership is such a masterclass in leadership for the world. It’s such a shame he has to deal with the 21st Century’s stupidest, most blatantly self-interested and corrupt leader, Donald Trump.

[The Halfway Post @HalfwayPost]

BREAKING: Donald Trump is reportedly furious because his latest threats to leave NATO have backfired as European leaders are proposing to replace the US in NATO with Ukraine, start curb stomping Russia all together, and then make Trump utterly irrelevant in all the negotiations.

BREAKING: Mexico's superstar President Claudia Sheinbaum announces that her country will sue Google if the tech company continues to incorrectly label the Gulf of Mexico as the "Gulf of America" for U.S.-based users.

This one has MAGA world screeching...

"What Google is doing here is changing the name of the continental shelf of Mexico and Cuba, which has nothing to do with Trump’s decree, which applied only to the US continental shelf," Sheinbaum said to reporters. "We do not agree with this, and the Foreign Minister has sent a new letter addressing the issue."

She called the renaming "incorrect" and added that Trump's inane and jingoistic decree "only changed the name within his own continental shelf, which extends 22 nautical miles from the US coast—not the entire Gulf."

Google's cowardly decision last week to relabel the Gulf of Mexico to the "Gulf of America" was a blatant and pathetic attempt to pander to the infamously vindictive Trump — a trend we see unfolding across much of the tech sector right now.

There is a fascist in power and corporations want to protect their profits at all costs.

Sheinbaum stated that Mexico is sending a letter to Google informing the company that "any reference to the ‘Gulf of America’ initiative on your Google Maps platform must be strictly limited to the marine area under U.S. jurisdiction."

"Any extension beyond that zone exceeds the authority of any national government or private entity. Should that be the case, the Government of Mexico will take the appropriate legal actions as deemed necessary," the letter added.

While Trump is keeping his supporters distracted with pointless and childish name changes, egg prices are hitting record highs and airplanes are falling out of the sky.
