Drudge Retort: The Other Side of the News

This was the biggest week in American politics in a hundred years, and I'm not being cute about it.


Welcome New Drudge Denizens | September-November 2026


What Lincoln teaches us about MAGA Leonard Pitts, Jr. 20 hours ago What should we do with the traitors? Now that we have beaten them soundly, what should our attitude toward them be?


The Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) reports they intercepted and destroyed the 16th USAF MQ-1 reconnaissance-combat drone over Qeshm Island in the Strait of Hormuz. Depending on its configuration, integrated sensors, and onboard systems, a MQ-1 Predator drone unit costs an estimated $4 million to $5 million each. The never-ending quagmire that ICC-indicted Benjamin Netanyahu and Dummkopf Trumpf blundered the US into now costs approximately $50bn. Moreover, Israel is continuing its illegal occupation of southern Lebanon. The World Bank and the UN report that Israel caused over $8bn in damage to Lebanon, despoiled 22.5% of its agricultural land, destroyed over 30,000 beehives, and displaced over 1.2m people.

Israel and AIPAC are bankrupting America and destroying Lebanon
"FUNNY"

Letter to D/DHS Markwayne Mullet et al:

  • "We are deeply troubled by recent reports of US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents using property owned by the City of New York to stage enforcement operations. This use of City property in furtherance of federal immigration enforcement is unauthorized and is therefore illegal, endangers City residents, and sows fear among those who seek to access City property. If your agents continue any unauthorized use of these lots, New York City will take legal action to prevent this unlawful commandeering of City property...."
  • Earlier this year, NYS Governor Kathy Hochul (D) prohibited state and local law enforcement agencies from entering into agreements to carry out federal civil immigration enforcement.
    NYC Executive Order No. 13


    Van Der Merwe told ICE officers he had a work permit and a pending asylum application. "According to Van Der Merwe, the officers said they did not care, placed him in handcuffs and shackles, and transported him to immigration detention in Dodge County," the law firm said. Read more

    Post some music you love... especially if it's, "blue"... or wave-ish.
    Or rockabilly jazzish.


    "Whether you think it was the right decision or not, the Iran War is largely what shifted voter sentiment and caused this wave, right? It jacked up the price of gas. That's the thing that people feel most immediately in their pockets, and it changed their minds." The younger Trump, 48, suggested that voters do not care whether the war is the right thing to do or not"they care that they did not get what they voted for. "We also campaigned on not getting into these things, and we don't have to debate whether it was the right thing or the wrong thing," Don Jr. said. "I don't have any of the details. I'm not privy to any of that in terms of the intelligence. But it was definitely something after Afghanistan and Iraq that we probably didn't want to be into."


    The North Carolina Voter Identification Amendment was on the ballot in North Carolina as a legislatively referred constitutional amendment on November 3, 2026. The amendment was approved.


    Racist misogynist SECWAR Pete Hegseth (R) -- an incompetent alcoholic and failure who fell into ICC-indicted war criminal Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu's trap which sunk the US into a never-ending Middle Eastern quagmire against the people of Iran -- a war which is bankrupting the US -- blither-blathers incoherently for five minutes over Rep. Thomas Massie's (R-KY) "Sham Articles Of Impeachment."

    Bibi and Senile Satan have bankrupted America. Just look at the astronomical costs to the American taxpayer who doesn't enjoy worldclass universal healthcare like Israelis. Wow. The entire Trumpf junta should be court-martialed forthwith.


    "The entire Democratic Party owes Zohran Mamdani a huge thank you. Before he burst onto the scene, the party was directionless. We had lost our way, our mojo, and our confidence. We abandoned the working class, and voters abandoned us in return. Zohran got us back on track with energy, clarity, and a real connection to the people we left behind. Without him, we might not be where we are today. Who couldn't like him? [Zohran] radiates joy, empathy, kindness, and love." '' " "Mamdani's election was a beacon of light in 2025 and gave us all hope. Now he's a household name, and Democrats around the country love him. He gave us hope we can do the same thing around the country. Progressive Democrats are the future." Even Dummkopf Trumpf has a "thing" for handsome and charismatic Zohran.

    NYG QB Jaxson Dart and Zohran Mamdani (D) are Trumpf's "type."

    Here's a list of Trump-endorsed Republicans who lost on Tuesday (see first comment(s)) ...


    The state thrice denied the Satanic Temple's application for a family friendly holiday event featuring satanic carols, arts and crafts and a Krampus costume contest, arguing it would be harmful to minors.


    Following the inconclusive election results in Israel, the key to ousting ICC-indicted war criminal PM Benjamin Netanyahu (Likud) from power lies with the Israeli Communist Party (AKA the "Makis") and the "Joint List," an alliance of three parties: Hadash, Ta'al, and Balad. Hadash is a Jewish-Arab coalition led by the Makis. This bloc has long fought for an end to the brutal occupation of Gaza and the West Bank, a Palestinian state alongside Israel based on the 1967 borders, and full equality for all Arab citizens (one-fifth of Israel's population). The Joint List is headed by Yousef Jabareen, a Hadash leader and law professor, a man educated in Israel and the US. The Joint List includes Member of Knesset (MK) Ofer Cassif, a communist. To govern Israel, any ruling coalition must include this progressive bloc as neither Benjamin Netanyahu (who won 53 seats) nor Gadi Eisenkot " "Likud Lite" " (who won 48 seats) have a majority of 61 seats in the 120-member Knesset.


    The Nasdaq Composite plummeted on Thursday, erasing the sharp gains from the previous session, as investors continued to rotate away from technology stocks and into more defensive areas of the market. The tech-heavy Nasdaq declined 4.2% and dipped into correction territory, while the S&P 500 was down 2.6%. The Dow Jones Industrial Average shed 780 points, or 1.5%, as gains in stocks such as Chevron and Johnson & Johnson were not enough to spare the 30-stock index from the tech selling spree. The Dow erased around half of its advance from Wednesday's massive rally.


    West Hollywood has become the latest city to create a domestic partnership registry for polyamorous relationships, with the city's five-person City Council unanimously approving the legal protections for alternative family structures.
