If you believe the Patriots of 1776 who bled out on frozen fields died for nothing; if you believe the Greatest Generation who stormed beaches and crushed fascism died for nothing; if you believe we are helpless against a pedophile's Nazification of America; if you believe voting changes nothing and the fight is already lost — then step aside, this isn't for you. I'm with Jack Smith.
Good morning and Happy Saturday to everyone who agrees that JD Vance should go f*ck himself for suggesting that Americans should stop griping "about the little things" like gas, groceries, and basic necessities.
Tone deaf jackass.
Chilling words.
Senator Dick Durbin at the Jack Smith Hearing just now:
“There are moments I’ll never forget. Twenty-five years ago, 9/11 was one of those moments when we were asked to evacuate the Capitol for fear of what might happen if the terrorists attacked.
“But the day I’ll also remember as long as I live is January 6, 2021, when this cathedral of democracy was overrun by violent insurrectionists at the direction of the President of the United States.”
Before calling someone a “dirtbag,” the Senator should have had his facts straight. An apology is in order.
Glad one of us knew the difference between the Atlanta Hawks and the Iowa Hawkeyes!
🔥JACK SMITH: "Trump engaged in serious crimes against 🇺🇸- a criminal scheme to prevent a lawful transfer of power... the rule of law faces challenges unlike any we've experienced. I won't be silenced by threats of prosecution. While fear may be contagious, courage is as well."
🚨 BREAKING:
One hour after announcing his resignation, U.S. Joint Chiefs Chairman Gen. Randy George reportedly said:
"Donald Trump should be hospitalized immediately; I doubt his mental fitness. He is leading the U.S. military toward disaster."
By a 1 vote margin, Republicans voted to continue the Iran war that had spiked your gas prices to $5 a gallon and caused inflation to soar. Remember this when you vote in November.
BREAKING🚨 ABC refused to let eight Epstein survivors speak on Jimmy Kimmel Live. Rosie O'Donnell gathered them and filmed it herself — and the women told her no famous person had ever called to stand beside them. Now she says she will tell all eight of their stories, one by one.
O'Donnell guest-hosted four episodes in August and pitched what she called "the Epstein reveal" for her final night.
"They said that they were certain that could not happen," she said on the Jann Arden Podcast. "So I said, 'Well, then I'm going to do it myself.'"
She called Survivor Sisters, an advocacy group formed by Epstein survivors, and asked how many women could get there in three days. Eight came. They filmed for about two hours.
She first posted a short video from the shoot. Andrea Sterling, Sharlene Rochard, Lara Blume McGee, Jena-lisa Jones, Wendy Pesante, Lisa Phillips, Marina Lacerda and Chauntae Davies stood together in white, fists raised, singing Helen Reddy's "I Am Woman." It ended with childhood photos of the women. Jimmy Kimmel later shared it on his own Instagram Story.
Now O'Donnell says each woman will get her own up-close segment telling her story. The eight segments could become a full documentary, a YouTube project or something they release themselves on social media.
O'Donnell said she made the video after Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche, Trump's former personal lawyer, said he did "not know whether there are men out there that abused these women." That same day, the Justice Department released more than 3 million additional pages from its Epstein files.
"You are all heroes, and you're going to change how the world deals with child sex abuse," O'Donnell told the women.
Afterward, she said, they told her no famous person had ever called to stand beside them.
I lived through the Biden years when MAGA bitched and cried every fucking day about gas prices.
When Joe Biden left office, gas was $3.10.
Gas prices are now $4.47/gallon.
Groceries, utilities are higher too.
Diesel is TWICE it was under Biden.
trump's tariffs and war did that.
So MAGA, you can take your "Biden left us a mess," and shove it up your own asses.
It has been 621 days.
He was elected on LOWERING prices.
All he's done in 612 days is:
- stuff his own pockets
- start a new fucking war
- make billionaires RICHER
- attack our mail-in ballots
- cut healthcare for the poor
- fall asleep in every meeting
- messed up the reflecting pool
- make everything more expensive
- start a trade war with our neighbor
- ban the press from the White House
- try to put his name on Kennedy Center
- got his son contracts with the Pentagon
- weaponize the DOJ against his enemies
- protect the pedophiles in the Epstein Files
- bitch and whine about Biden and the media
- tried to change the name of the Gulf of Mexico and Lake Ontario (nobody with sense is calling it that)
But he hasn't done a damn thing about yours and my gas, groceries, housing, healthcare, and utilities.
Stinky needs to go.
THE “WORST OF THE WORST”: A NUN WITH A WORK PERMIT.
Sleep peacefully, America. ICE caught Sister Leticia Ugboaja walking to Sunday Mass.
She had a valid work permit, attended EVERY required immigration appointment and complied with EVERY condition of her court-ordered protection.
A nun. A nurse. Following the rules. Walking to church.
Thank God they got to her before she could receive Communion.
It took intervention from members of Congress to help secure her release. Apparently, a work permit and doing everything immigration officials require aren’t quite as effective as knowing someone in Congress.
So much for “do it the right way" hey MAGA????
ICE: protecting America from the terrifying threat of a nurse with a rosary.

BREAKING: Tucker Carlson reveals a jaw-dropping private conversation he had with Trump in which he warned him that the Iran War would destroy America and Trump said: "We all die anyway, so it doesn't matter."
This maniac has the nuclear codes...
"I'm in an unusual position because I talked to Trump," Carlson told Steve Inskeep of the NPR Newsmakers podcast.
The former Fox News host has become one of the President's fiercest critics over the past year, with his most vociferous attacks aimed at the disastrous, pointless war with Iran.
"But you've quoted him as waving off the risk by saying it'll all be fine which could almost—" said Inskeep of Trump's posture towards the conflict.
"You want to know what he said?" replied Carlson. "I'll tell you exactly what he said and I haven't said this but I'm just gonna tell you. And this is a fact. And I could look at my calendar but I had flown back from Tel Aviv from Ben Gurion Airport after seeing the ambassador and two days later I was in the Oval with Trump alone."
"And he was annoyed that I had given Huckabee a hard time in this whole conversation about Huckabee and I said your U.S. ambassador — and as the son of an ambassador — I know what the job entails," recounted Carlson. "And your ambassador, your representative to this nation just called for rearranging the Middle East and allowing Israel to take parts of Saudi Arabia, Jordan, and Syria. Like this is a diplomatic incident and so we had this whole conversation about this."
"But then I said this war is not about Iran's nuclear program, which you told me and the world that you eliminated back in last summer, in June," Carlson continued. "This war is being pushed by Israel with three aims..."
"One, its own regional hegemony. Take Iran off the map. They don't have freedom of movement as long as Iran is a regional power.
"Two, diminishing the power of the GCC, the six Gulf states which are a rival to Israel and are becoming this kind of Switzerland of the Middle East and that's bad for Israeli interests."
"And three, getting the U.S. out of the Middle East because we constrain their ambitions, getting our bases out, destroying our bases. Israel wants our bases out of the Middle East. I said this to Trump to his face in the Oval Office days before the war began," said Carlson.
"And he looked at me and said 'Yes, you're right. But in the end we all die anyway, so it doesn't matter.' That's exactly what he said 'In the end, we all die anyway,' and I said to him, shocked, 'But what about our kids and our grandkids and like our country and he goes 'Uggggh.'"
"What does that mean?" a perplexed Inskeep asked of the bizarre, dismissive noise.
"I don't know! That's a verbatim exchange," said Carlson. "And you know as God watches I said that. I thought it was true then and I think it's been proven true now."
"The goal was to get the U.S. out, to diminish the GCC, and obviously to take Iran off the map and sink it into permanent internal strife into civil war, sectarian strife," said Carlson. "And he said it doesn't matter because in the end we're all dead anyway. And I was shocked by that because it's nihilism and that's the last thing any leader should display or any person should display. It does matter. Who lives or dies does matter. The future does matter."
As horrifying as Trump's anti-human remarks are, they are perfectly in keeping with his personality. This man is an egomaniacal sociopath. He doesn't believe in God, doesn't believe in the rule of law or right and wrong. As far as he's concerned, the world ends when he dies. He couldn't care less what happens to the rest of us.
It's also not the first time that Trump has given the world such an unvarnished look into his nihilistic worldview. In a 2004 interview with Larry King, he shared similar sentiments—
"I try and tell myself it doesn't matter. Nothing matters. If you tell yourself it doesn't matter, like you do shows, you do this, you do that and then you have earthquakes in India where 400,000 people get killed," said Trump. "Honestly, it doesn't matter. That's how I handle stress."
Within this kind of moral framework (or lack thereof) Trump's entire life makes sense. Since he believes in nothing, he has chosen to indulge in every cruelty and evil imaginable. He spent his time on this Earth ripping people off, sexually abusing and raping women, allegedly including children, and then used the powers of the White House to slaughter countless people overseas.
If the Devil exists, this is what he looks like.
