The federal prosecutor Trump fired for not prosecuting his enemies was listed as an attorney on 675 federal cases. His replacement is listed on 3.
Wait, she’s an actual lawyer? How did that happen?

I do not recall Martians visiting Earth and consuming all motor vehicles, then proceeding to eat social establishments serving alcohol.
The good news is that they decided to only eat guitars. Yeah!

Boo! They better keep their hands off my Guild acoustic and my Strat
I had to look up Fab 5 Freddy to find out when he died, only to find out he’s still alive.
Except apparently Jimmy Hoffa

What KILLS me is the tut-tut-tut-ing, pearl-clutching, namby-pamby tone of these objections that experts are raising! These people should be screaming from the rooftops that this man is a freaking maniac and is hell-bent on destroying the Bill of Rights!
We’re concerned… we worry…this might…there’s a possibility… When I read wimpy comments like that I want to scream: “You are the experts, you know what’s happening, you SEE it happening! Call it what it is, FFS!”
It’s the arguing-with-a-pig issue is why.

No, no, the rapture happened on Tuesday as scheduled.
The problem was, the world is such a fucking mess that the only person taken to Heaven was a guy named Craig in New Zealand.

There doesn’t seem seem to be a unified message in Conalot.
Vice President JD Vance said Wednesday that pregnant women should follow their physicians’ advice in deciding whether or not to take Tylenol , striking a different tone after President Donald Trump strongly discouraged its use .
“What I took from the president’s announcement and also the CDC’s recommendations here is we just have to be careful," Vance said in a NewsNation interview . “We know that some of these medications have side effects. We know that even despite those side effects, sometimes they’re necessary. So my guidance to pregnant women would be very simple, which is: Follow your doctor.”
“Ultimately, whether you should take something is very context-specific, and that’s why I think you should lean on your doctor," he added.
If you’re waiting for a third completely unqualified person to tell you to listen to your doctor, odds are you’re not going to listen to your doctor. You’re probably not even going to have a doctor.
The felon’s fools shot off their mouth and a judge is not happy.
NEW YORK (Reuters) -Public statements by Justice Department officials about Luigi Mangione, the man charged with killing an insurance executive last year, violated a court rule meant to protect criminal defendants against publicity that could prejudice a jury pool against them, the judge overseeing the case said on Wednesday.
In a written order, Manhattan-based U.S. District Judge Margaret Garnett instructed prosecutors to advise Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche to tell other Justice Department officials that any further violations could result in punishments including financial penalties or contempt of court.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) -President Donald Trump said on Wednesday he will sign an executive order this week to dismantle “domestic terrorism networks,” which he has previously alleged are funded by left-wing groups inciting violence against conservatives.
“The continuing violence from Radical Left Terrorists, in the aftermath of Charlie Kirk’s assassination, must be stopped,” Trump wrote on Truth Social. “I will be signing an Executive Order this week to dismantle these Domestic Terrorism Networks.”
Trump made the announcement on the same day a gunman killed one detainee and wounded two others at an Immigration and Customs Enforcement field office in Dallas. ICE has led Trump’s sweeping crackdown on illegal immigration, which has drawn widespread criticism from Democrats and immigration activists.
Trump and his allies have repeatedly suggested, without evidence, that the suspect in conservative activist Kirk’s assassination two weeks ago was part of a broader coordinated left-wing movement.
But which violent groups are okay?
At the same time, the president has largely downplayed violence from right-wing groups, insisting political violence is a problem rooted in the left. Domestic terrorism experts, however, say political violence is bipartisan and that historically more attacks have been inspired by right-wing ideology.
Surprise! Surprise! Surprise!
Give it up, felon. You’re no Garry Trudeau.
President Donald Trump is using a new “Presidential Walk of Fame” in the White House to troll his predecessor.
Black and white presidential portraits now hang along the colonnade near the Oval Office in gold frames. But instead of a photograph of former President Joe Biden , there’s a picture of an autopen, according to social media posts from the White House and Margo Martin , a special assistant to the president.
Vance shoots off his mouth again, is wrong again. Or is that still?
JD Vance blasted Jon Favreau – host of “Pod Save America” and a former aide to Barack Obama – over his take following the ICE Texas shooting.
Following Wednesday’s ICE shooting in Texas, Vance tweeted out that “The obsessive attack on law enforcement, particularly ICE, must stop. I’m praying for everyone hurt in this attack and for their families.”
Favreau responded taking issue with the fact that Vance was tweeting out information that was contradicted by law enforcement – mainly that it was detainees that were shot and killed and not ICE agents.
“The Vice President is not a reliable source of information. This is now the fifth or sixth time he’s posted a political take contradicted by facts from his own law enforcement agencies.”
And what was co-conspirator Vance’s response?
Favreau’s tweet was accompanied by a suggested community note that read: “According to an ICE spokesperson, the three individuals shot were ICE detainees, leaving two individuals dead and one injured. No law enforcement were injured in this shooting, according to law enforcement and news reports out of Dallas, Texas.”
The vice president responded to the podcaster, blasting him for the take and pointing out there were reports that bullets with “f–k ice” written on them were found at the scene.
“The gunman had anti-ICE messaging carved on the bullets he used,” Vance wrote. “What, precisely, did I get wrong, dips–t?”
The rest of the article includes a rundown of Vance’s shooting off his mouth and thereby shooting his own foot.
The fallout from the felon flouting the First Amendment isn’t over.
Jimmy Kimmel is back on ABC after a weeklong suspension , but the lawyer who beat Donald Trump in sexual abuse and defamation cases wants the Walt Disney Company to come clean with its shareholders about how it all went down – or else.
“There is a credible basis to suspect that the Board and executives may have breached their fiduciary duties of loyalty, care, and good faith by placing improper political or affiliate considerations above the best interests of the Company and its stockholders,” says a letter delivered to Bob Iger today from Roberta Kaplan and other lawyers for the American Federation of Teachers, mega-union the AFL-CIO and Reporters Without Borders.
I used to think Trump advocated shooting people because he himself had never been shot at.
I have now revised my theory to Trump relishing destruction.
Although NATO countries do have a legal standing for shooting down hostiles in their airspace without permission people with functional brains understand that “legal” doesn’t always me “a good idea in this context” or “optimal solution to the problem”.

South Korean President Lee Jae Myung said in an interview with Reuters that his country cannot afford to meet President Trump’s demands that it invest $350 billion into America in exchange for the removal of punishing tariffs.
“Without a currency swap, if we were to withdraw $350 billion in the manner that the U.S. is demanding and to invest this all in cash in the U.S., South Korea would face a situation as it had in the 1997 financial crisis,
I suspect that for the current regime that’s a feature and not a bug.

They stated, “Gott Mit Uns”—“God with us,” literally. Somewhere, I’ve got such a belt, taken as a war souvenir by a veteran, who picked it up on the battlefield.
My bold.
Uh-oh, JD. You’re gonna have to do some heavy-duty penance for failing to give a wholehearted endorsement to Dear Leader’s stand on Tylenol.

And here I was, delaying a reference to the prophesized martian rapture until I could work out a reference to Elon as the “Man from Mars”.

Pictures or it didn’t happen!
And the “45” portrait is his fucking mugshot!
What an insane asylum looks like when money is no object
No, it is not. He re-created the mugshot for the official portrait. He was so proud of it, credits with winning him an election! But he wanted it to look even better than that:
And the result is what you see in post #8176 . Almost the same, but BW, better light, darker background, a stars&stripes pin, and less double-chin. And no Fulton County Sheriff Office on the corner.
Much more presidential, I must ad vomit.
To which, any sane person, would retort, ‘Donny? A re-creation of your mugshot… IS STILL YOUR FUCKING MUGSHOT!’ and then I’d finish his Diet Coke.
