Trump has nuclear meltdown over NYT senility report
New York Times reporter Katie Rogers published a piece yesterday about how Trump is doing fewer and fewer public events, is falling asleep in public, is less and less coherent when he IS in public, and questions the implications of his ruminations on the afterlife and how he’s not going to heaven. This, of course, did not sit well with Trump, who cannot stand anyone ever even *implying* that he is not the smartest, handsomest, healthiest, richest and most popular man to have ever walked the planet, and he immediately blew his top on Truth Social in a hysterical tantrum in which he insulted the female reporter as being "ugly inside and out" and trashed the NY Times as a "cheap 'RAG' is truly an ‘ENEMY OF THE PEOPLE!" Might as well have just posted "I'M INSECURE AND I NEED EVERYONE TO KNOW ABOUT IT!"

VIDEO OF THE DAY: Kash Patel reportedly on thin ice as Trump's FBI director
Donald Trump has reportedly grown increasingly frustrated by the unflattering headlines his nitwit of an FBI director has been generating lately, like giving his 27-year-old girlfriend her own security detail and gallivanting around the country to visit her on a private jet. According to MS NOW, the MAGA cult leader is now considering ditching the woefully unqualified Kash Patel in favor of current Co-Deputy Director Andrew Bailey. Turns out only certain members of Donald's goon squad can get away with abusing their office and doling out the perks. Uh oh! Kash 'bout to be outside, how 'bout dat?

Trump's cruelty leaves millions in Thanksgiving bind
The shutdown may finally be over, but the financial pain that so many American families felt from going for weeks without food stamps or paychecks is still very real. Still more American families are reeling from sky-high prices from Trump’s tariffs or have lost their jobs as Corporate America fires workers by the tens of thousands. That's why the No Kid Hungry nonprofit is organizing a Friendsgiving fundraising drive to get the community involved and help make sure people get the food they need. Will you step up and help feed American kids in need?

Justice Department memo about deadly boat strikes diverges from Trump narrative
We know this is going to come as a bit of a shock, but the Trump regime's official legal rationale for its extrajudicial murder spree on the high seas and Donald's off-the-cuff exaltations do not line up. At all. To hear the MAGA cult leader tell it, he's acting valiantly to combat the epidemic of drug overdose deaths caused by fentanyl flooding into the country via speed boats. The DOJ, however, is spinning an altogether different and most dubious story: International cartels are waging armed violence against the security forces of allies like Mexico, and that violence is financed by cocaine shipments. Thus, US military strikes are targeting the cocaine itself (on behalf of Mexico, we guess?), and the deaths of anyone on board the boats reportedly ferrying the drug should be treated as an enemy casualty — or collateral damage if (oops!) civilians happen to be killed. So, according to his own Department of Justice, Donald "America First" Trump isn't blowing up speeds boats hundreds of miles from American shores to protect any of us. Rather, he's doing it to help Mexico. What's that? You're not buying the bullshit either?

Twitter's new feature raises questions about the foreign origins of some popular US political accounts
They go by names like @TRUMP_ARMY— or @MAGANationX, and their verified accounts proudly display portraits of Donald Trump, voter rallies, and American flags, of course. And they're constantly posting about US politics to their followers, sounding like diehard fans of the MAGA cult leader. But after a weekend update to nüTwitter, it’s now clear that the owners of these accounts, and many others, are actually located in such curious places as South Asia, Africa, and Eastern Europe. Online sleuths and experts quickly found that many popular accounts posting in support of the MAGA movement to thousands or hundreds of thousands of followers, are based outside the United States — raising glaringly obvious concerns about foreign influence on US politics. Just like the charlatan huckster himself, Trump's movement is chock full of smoke, mirrors, mirage, and veneers, betraying a remarkable lack of actual substance at its core.

ICE detains relative of White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt
Karoline Leavitt, come on down! You're the next contestant on Was The Price (For Your Soul) Right? The mother of Leavitt's 11-year-old nephew has been detained by Donald's cosplay bounty hunters at ICE and is currently being held at a detention facility in Louisiana 1,700 miles away from her home in Massachusetts. Leavitt has yet to publicly comment on Bruna Caroline Ferreira's detention, but other family members have already launched a GoFundMe campaign on Ferreira's behalf. According to the page’s description, Ferreira came to the United States as a child in 1998 and has "maintained her legal status through DACA." Ferreira was engaged to Karoline's brother Michael in 2014 and the two share a son together, Michael Leavitt Jr. According to Ferreira's sister, "Bruna’s absence has been especially painful for [Michael Jr.], who needs his mother and hopes every single day that she'll be home in time for the holidays." Oh, to be fly on the Leavitt family dining room wall tomorrow...

Republican senator blasts FBI for investigating Democratic colleagues
Every few months, Alaska Republican Lisa Murkowski re-enters the public arena with something resembling a backbone and feebly pushes back against one unconscionable Trump regime act or another, before quietly fading into the background again and resuming her role as dutiful enabler. Yesterday was one such occurrence, with the four-term senator taking particular issue with the MAGA cult leader's hysterical crusade targeting veteran Democratic lawmakers who dared to remind US servicemembers that they can lawfully refuse illegal orders from their superiors, including the president. Murkowski specifically came to the defense of Sen. Mark Kelly, who is a retired Navy captain and astronaut. She took to Twitter to write: "Senator Kelly valiantly served our country as an aviator in the US Navy before later completing four space shuttle missions as a NASA astronaut. To accuse him and other lawmakers of treason and sedition for rightfully pointing out that servicemembers can refuse illegal orders is reckless and flat-out wrong. The Department of Defense and FBI surely have more important priorities than this frivolous investigation." Well, they should have more important priorities than a foolish and futile witch hunt, but with Pete Hegseth and Kash Patel at the helm they sure as shit do not.

Campbell’s IT chief on leave after lawsuit claims he said company’s food is "shit" for "fucking poor people"
When Robert Garza, a former Campbell’s employee, sat down for a routine salary discussion in November 2024 with Martin Bally, the vice president of information technology, he surely could not have forseen the shit storm to come. During the meeting Bally had some incredibly curious things to say about the food their company produces and the customer base they serve. For more than an hour Bally reportedly lambasted the quality of Campbell's products ("shit for fucking poor people"), made racist and derogatory remarks about their Indian employees ("idiots" who could not "think for their fucking selves"), and admitted to routinely showing up at work high on marijuana edibles. Garza reported the incident to HR on Jan. 10 of this year and was fired 20 days later. Unfortunately for his superiors and Campbell's PR team, Garza kept receipts in the form of an audio recording of the encounter. He's now suing and common sense says he's about to get real paid. Oh, also, Bally has been officially put on leave. Don't let that door hit your dumb ass on the way out, Martin!

Ex-GOP rep dishes on current lawmakers’ private confessions: "Miserable"
Former Rep. Dave Trott of Michigan has lifted the lid on how current House Republicans really feel during Donald Trump's second term. And... it's not great. "Members I have kept in touch with are miserable, and the deplorable state of affairs in our Capitol today is certainly a driving factor behind many recent lawmakers’ resignations," he wrote in an op-ed for The Daily Beast. Trott lambasted the MAGA cult leader, dubbing him "King Donald" for his use of executive orders before dropping the mic: “Let’s be clear, Trump’s executive branch is being run by a bunch of sycophants, felons, and idiots."

Tucker Carlson declares Benjamin Netanyahu the "main enemy" of Western civilization
We can't believe we're saying this, but Tucker's got a point. Any "main enemy" of Western civilization list would have to include the current Israeli prime minister. Come to think of it, the fella currently holding court at and taking literal wrecking balls to the White House would be a strong contender, too.

Trump envoy Witkoff caught coaching Kremlin on how to manipulate US president on Ukraine
The key to geopolitical supremacy in 2025 isn't a strong command of history, a sustained demonstration of actual military might, or a chess grandmaster's grasp on which pieces to move and when. Rather, it's knowing exactly which compliments will unlock preferred policy positions. For Vladimir Putin's Kremlin, the task is clear: congratulate Donald Trump on his superior mental acuity, his stunning good looks, his voluminous hair, those amazing crowds (wow!), his incredible golf game, and the strength of his famous handshake and, well, you just might land yourself a nice chunk of Ukrainian territory and a get-out-of-war-crimes-jail-free card! So says de facto chief interlocutor Steve Witkoff, anyway. Who knew a well-placed pat on the back of a vainglorious man could be mightier than a sword?
