Whiny titty-ass baby Von Shitzhispants is having a nervous breakdown over his awful poll numbers and is using his usual cudgel, lawsuits against any news in the press that makes him look bad. In a crazed Truth Social post, Trump claimed all polls showing him in the gutter are fake, and he will sue. WIll Trump sue Real Clear Politics, the favorite right-wing polling site that gives his average approval rating at 42%? Trump has bilked the US for over a billion dollars this year in the Oval Office and should be investigated by the HOUSE (I kid, because they never will), but this gives him the resources to sue everything and everyone to force his demented and narcissistic viewpoint against reality itself. Trump uses the courts like Stephen Miller uses ICE. A fascist is what a fascist does.


During an appearance on Fox Business, Trump commented, "We've never needed them. They'll say they sent some troops to Afghanistan. ... and they did. They stayed a little back, a little off the frontlines." But some of Trump's European critics are pointing out that when he was young during the 1960s and 1970s, he avoided military service. Scotland-based journalist/author Stephen Stewart, himself a veteran, argued, "Trump's comments are as offensive as they are inaccurate. It's hugely ironic that someone who allegedly dodged the draft for the Vietnam War should make such a disgraceful statement. He has desecrated the memory of hundreds of British soldiers who made the ultimate sacrifice in Afghanistan, people who we called friends and comrades. If he was a man of honor, he would get down on bended knees to ask forgiveness from the families of the fallen."


A man accused of putting a bounty on the life of Border Patrol Cmdr. Gregory Bovino was found not guilty Thursday. A verdict was reached just before 4 p.m. The jury of six men and six women got the case about 12:45 p.m. Thursday. Closing arguments took up all of the morning. The government was unable to provide any evidence to corroborate an alleged murder-for-hire plot. According to the statute, a person commits murder for hire if they take a substantial step toward committing the crime. That substantial step must be an act that strongly corroborates that the defendant intended to carry it out.


The Florida Bar downplayed a congressional finding that Matt Gaetz, President Trump's first choice for U.S. Attorney General, committed statutory rape before it abandoned his prosecution. Roughly the top half of the 70-page file is a report by a bipartisan U.S. House Ethics Committee that concludes the now-former Republican congressman took illegal drugs and paid women, at least one who was underage, for sex for more than three years. The report recaps the committee's investigation that derailed Gaetz's wild ride that let him off short of becoming U.S. Attorney General.

"I want to be clear, I stand by my decisions as special counsel, including the decision to bring charges against President Trump. Our investigation developed proof beyond a reasonable doubt that President Trump engaged in criminal activity," [Former Special Counsel Jack] Smith said in his opening statement. He said that Trump "engaged in a criminal scheme to overturn the results and prevent the lawful transfer of power." read more
