US Senator Tim Sheehy (R-MT) admitted that Iran is playing "rope-a-dope" with Dummkopf Trumpf, inflicting the astonishing insult of "dope" on the morbidly obese geriatric Dotard-in-Chief on, of all places, Faux News.
"You won't meet anyone dumber than Dummkopf Trumpf."
Now they're turning away. From Italy to France, nationalist leaders are reassessing their ties with the U.S. president as his brand sours across the EU.
After wasting a jaw-dropping $113bn recklessly attacking Iran on behalf of Israel, the satanic Trumpf junta doesn't want to spend a measly 1% of that astronomical amount to help state and local governments with DHS funding to prevent terrorism, protect infrastructure, and prepare for major disasters unless they comply with election law changes the junta designed to suppress the vote.
"What, no overtime to protect this dump? Let's getta outta here, fellas!"

JUNEAU, Alaska (AP) -- A man with the same name and party affiliation as Alaska Republican U.S. Sen. Dan Sullivan on Monday challenged a decision by a top state elections official to disqualify his candidacy and remove him from the August primary ballot. A court filing, on behalf of the challenger Sullivan by his attorneys, said the decision by Division of Elections Director Carol Beecher disqualifying him violates state and federal law. It asks that he be placed on the ballot. Sullivan, a retired teacher from the small fishing community of Petersburg, has maintained that he's a qualified candidate for U.S. Senate and that election officials lacked a legal basis to boot him from the ballot.

ENGLISHTOWN, N.J. (AP) -- A notorious mob hitman who once testified against John "Junior" Gotti before cleaning up his life and becoming a councilman in New Jersey has been arrested on extortion and loansharking charges that, if proven, reflect a return to the lifestyle of his youth.

WASHINGTON (AP) -- Two more people in Missouri and Washington state have been arrested in connection with what authorities say was a planned attack targeting President Donald Trump's UFC cage-fighting show at the White House earlier this month. Federal law enforcement officials disrupted the plan a few days before the June 14 White House event, according to court documents.

Jordan W. Rincker, 28, was arrested Sunday and charged with conspiracy to commit murder in the Western District of Missouri. A defense attorney appointed to represent Falkner did not immediately respond to an email requesting comment, and court records do not reveal if Rincker has obtained an attorney. Neither man has had the opportunity to enter a plea. Read more
The incompetent and nefarious Trumpf junta is planning to charge legal immigrants seeking US citizenship $570 more in application fees while eliminating waivers and fee reductions for low-income applicants. Paper applications would increase from $760 to $1,330, online applications from $710 to $1,280, and application fees to reconsider a citizenship request denial would jump by $645.
Dummkopf Trumpf and the illegal war against Iran on behalf of Israel has bankrupted the US government, so the junta is squeezing poor immigrants for money
Former NBC journalist Chris Hansen of "To Catch a Predator" fame delivered a pointed quip in a video published Monday after a man swept up in a child exploitation sting arrived wearing a shirt prominently featuring President Donald Trump.

A video published Monday revealed new details about some of the 15 men arrested in the operation, including 21-year-old Brennan Temple. Temple, according to Hansen, had sent sexually explicit images and messages to someone he believed to be a 15-year-old girl

United States President Donald Trump has pledged there will be no tolls for passage through the Strait of Hormuz, unless they are collected by his own country. Trump's statement, made in a Saturday afternoon post on Truth Social, is the latest sign that a recently signed memorandum of understanding (MOU) may be unravelling. "There will be NO TOLLS in the Hormuz Strait for 60 days during the Cease Fire Period, and there will be NO TOLLS after the 60 day period has expired," Trump wrote, "unless they are imposed by and for the United States of America."
A volunteer projected images of Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein on the tarp of the Kennedy Center.

New cases of New World screwworm have been confirmed in West Texas, prompting the U.S. Department of Agriculture to expand its response, including immediate sterile fly dispersal flights over Crockett County. In a post on X from the USDA's New World Screwworm Rapid Response, the agency said that "in the last 24 hours, 1 lamb in Crockett County, TX, and 2 calves in Edwards County, TX have tested positive for New World Screwworm, bringing the total number of domestic confirmed detections to 15." The USDA said it "has already taken action and will be starting sterile fly dispersal flights over Crockett County (outside current affected areas) immediately."
