Dan Bongino has a nice cry on Fox & Friends: "I gave up everything for this. I mean, my wife is struggling... I stare at these 4 walls all day in DC, you know, by myself, divorced from my wife. Not divorced, but I mean, separated. And it's hard."

(Note that Brian Kilmeade has to encourage him lol)

from "this week in stupid," my wrap-up of the dumbest fucking shit that happened.
Margie Greene loses a battle of wits with an AI, Donny cons crypto dipshits out of millions, and more.
please read the whole thing here: bit.ly/4mrrEVf
thanks!
(and as always, there's a longer excerpt in the alt text)
all of us should have seen this coming a mile away. you know all those bros who ponied up anywhere from hundreds of thousands to millions of dollars in order to get to hang with Dear Leader at his Big Crypto Corruption Dinner? they got played. they were promised they would get to hobnob with The Great Dealmaker himself — and they came home with bupkis. none of that shit happened. here’s how Donny ‘thanked’ them for their six- to seven-figure ‘investment’ into his fake money. look at this plateful of what in the actual fuck. this is the meal the crypto bros got served at Donny’s Virginia golf motel. “It was the worst food I’ve ever had at a Trump golf course,” Nicholas Pinto, a business influencer who poured around $300,000 into Trump’s coin, told Wired of the entree, a surf-and-turf dish that included halibut and filet mignon. Speaking to Fortune, he criticized the latter as a “Walmart steak.” Pictures of the plates suggested that the dinner was barely up to airline standards. so sorry to hear that you didn’t enjoy your three-hundred-thousand dollar meatwad, bro. maybe write Dear Leader a strongly-worded letter. here are two dudes who liked the food, but were totally bummed out when Dear Leader showed up, mumbled a few words into a microphone, and then got the fuck out of there. NEW: Two attendees of Trump’s crypto VIP reception and dinner last night shared that while the food was good, they were disappointed by the lack of meaningful interaction with the president. They had hoped for more access and perhaps even a Q&A session for the top wallet holders, but instead, the speech was essentially a reiteration of the U.S.’s goal to become the global leader in crypto. “He just gave a few remarks and left,” one said. so, Donny flimflammed a bunch of crypto assholes out of millions of dollars and gave them nothing in return. that might actually be a public service. I’m conflicted.

soldiers, sailors and marines are useful props whenever some asshole conservative needs to burnish their “patriot” cred, but when it comes time to actually support them — say, by helping them when they’re in need — it’s a completely different story. need proof? let’s go to the video tape, from July 29, 2022: here we have a bunch of Republican Senators fist-bumping. why? because they just blocked a bill that would have expanded healthcare coverage for military veterans exposed to toxic burn pits during their service. who the fuck celebrates that? awesome job, you evil soulless hypocrites — because nothing says ‘we support our heroes’ so much as ‘just fucking die.’ fast forward to this year. in April, the Space Nazi’s merry band of pimply DOGE incels showed up at the Department of Veterans Affairs and said good news, everyone — you’re all fired. they then took a wrecking ball to the place. right now, the VA is so understaffed that veterans calling in with need for assistance can’t get anyone to answer the phone. that’s “just fucking die” on steroids. listen up, shitheads: you send a person into a war zone and tell them to fight for their country, and when they come back injured and permanently disabled, you fucking well take care of them — forever. it’s basic human decency.

Marjorie, I know the truth confuses you and facts ain’t your strong suit—so let me break it down real slow:

George Floyd didn’t die from drugs. He died because Derek Chauvin knelt on his neck for 9 minutes. That’s called murder.

The fact that Costco delivers is one of the best things to happen to me. I don’t have to deal with the chaos that makes me anxious. AND everything comes right to my door.

More outrageous, nonsensical anti-science being introduced by RFK Jr. — and now seriously considered by Republican lawmakers.

After Calgary (Alberta, Canada) ended fluoridation in 2011, 700 percent more children required intravenous antibiotics to avoid fatal dental infection.

Calgary is…

Mike Johnson on RFK Jr pushing to remove fluoride from water: "From what I've read and what I understand, it deserves real evaluation. There's a concern that it may be having a negative impact on the health of children ... I don't have the answers."

Project 2025 specifically tells their people to use ‘Signal’ to avoid subpoenas…and hence, prosecution for the crimes they are blatantly committing.

Ummm…yeah.

Any Questions?!

I can’t wait to see these old, fat fuck Trumper’s around me locally….having to get up on a ladder in the June heat…and and roof their own houses…because the migrants are either gone, or too afraid to work and get caught.
