VIDEO OF THE DAY: Vance shoves his foot in his mouth in Epstein blunder
Cosplay hillbilly JD Vance sat down for the mother of all softball interviews with Lara Trump and actually claimed without a shred of self-awareness or irony that “the Left’s” cause of the day is…letting known sex offenders walk freely on the streets of America. Every accusation is a confession with these clowns.

Take Action: Release the names of all of Epstein’s clients now!

Kash Patel flies to Milan on taxpayers’ dime to pound beers with Team USA
Keystone Kash Patel flew to Milan — at American taxpayers’ expense on “official business” of course — to watch Team USA’s thrilling overtime victory over Canada in the Olympic gold medal hockey match, then crashed the locker room where he was seen knocking back beers like an 18-year-old fraternity pledge. It’s totally the kind of behavior you’d expect from the director of the FBI, and not at all eyebrow-raising that it also occurred while law enforcement agencies were neutralizing an armed intruder at Mar-a-Lago and monitoring the fallout in Mexico after the country’s most powerful cartel leader was killed in an audacious military operation earlier in the day.

Oh, this clip of Patel lambasting his predecessor’s use of a “government-funded G5” jet for personal travel is now making the rounds, having aged like a brick of Limburger cheese.

Take Action: Tax the rich!

These TWELVE races will decide if we can win back the House
Red to Blue: Democratic leadership has just released the list of twelve seats we’re targeting in order to flip the House blue, take back our majority, and put the brakes on Trump’s runaway train of fascism and dictatorship. If we want to have any chance of impeaching Donald Trump, stopping ICE’s terrorizing rampages, and finding out the truth about what Trump is hiding in the Epstein files, we NEED to win these seats. Will you chip in to help take our country back from MAGA extremists?

US tourists stranded in Mexico told to “shelter in place” as violence spreads in aftermath of cartel leader’s killing
US tourists have been stranded and told to seek shelter in a Mexican beach town after the killing of notorious cartel leader sparked a wave of violence across the country. Jalisco New Generation Cartel leader Nemesio Ruben Oseguera Cervantes, known as “El Mencho,” was killed in a military operation in the western state of Jalisco Sunday, officials said. Video footage shared online shows cars set ablaze in Puerto Vallarta, where frightened tourists described a “war zone” as plumes of dark smoke rose into the sky from around the bay.

American tourists in the city have told CNN that they have been locked in their hotels awaiting guidance for when it is safe to go outside. Air Canada, United Airlines, Aeromexico, and American Airlines have all suspended flights in the area, while the US State Department has urged its citizens in multiple Mexican states to remain indoors.

60 Minutes’ Anderson Cooper debunks Trump’s claim of “genocide” of white farmers in South Africa
Donald Trump’s dubious claims last fall of “white genocide” in South Africa were obviously total bullshit, but we’re still shocked that Bari Weiss and her MAGA appeasement squad at CBS actually let Anderson Cooper’s segment confirming as much actually air. Cooper, who just turned down a contract renewal to stay with the flagship news program, spoke with several Afrikaner farmers who flatly rejected any notion of genocide taking place. South Africa is plagued with high levels of crime, but as Cooper noted, “the majority of victims and perpetrators are Black. According to police, more than 25,000 people were murdered here in 2024. It’s estimated 37 of them were killed on farms.” Not quite reaching the threshold of “genocide,” Donnie, but you do you.

Trump regime forces owners of Colorado utilities company to keep aging coal plant open against their wishes
Coal is apparently so clean and so beautiful and so efficient the Trump regime is now FORCING utility companies to keep aging plants open against their wishes AND long-term financial well-being. We’ve apparently reached the point in the crazy play where the federal government barges into a hospital room and screams “NOT TODAY!” while family members, doctors, and a frickin’ lawyer are all standing there with a copy of great-grandma’s DNR order.

Top “manosphere” podcaster reality checks MAGA on Donald Trump: “Not doing great…”
When you’re losing the bros and the millions who tune into them, you know things have taken a serious turn — and not in your favor. You love to hate to see it.

Trump envoy claims Iran is “a week away” from a nuclear bomb as White House continues rattling its saber
According to hysterical warmongers, Iran has been a week away from a nuclear bomb for… 26 years and counting. You would think they would have gotten around to it by now, but we digress. Mustn’t let pesky, independently verifiable facts get in the way of Operation Jeffrey Who™?
