Haven't seen it mentioned here: Apparently Murdoch is done with Trump.
https://www.politico.com/news/magazine/2022/07/25/rupert-murdoch-donald-trump-splitsville-00047748

This is the result: https://www.nytimes.com/2022/07/27/us/politics/fox-news-trump-speech.html

apparently Fox News is no longer supporting him.


Looks like the vet thing might be pushed over the line today after that stunt from the Zodiac killer.

It's fucking weird - there's just so much 'stuff' it's crazy, like an out of control AI is running all this or something.

I wonder if Jon Stewart regrets the Daily Show sort of starting this trend of political news mixed with comedy.
What Tucker is doing is really not much different.  :doge

He trusts the great people of Missouri to make up their own minds, which is why he endorses ERIC.

It's just another level 99 trolling attempt.  :doge

https://www.politico.com/news/2022/08/02/lobbying-trumps-missouri-endorsement-00049183
Quote
Former President Donald Trump called Republican Senate candidate Eric Schmitt Monday evening, after posting on social media that he would endorse in Missouri’s GOP primary, and told him to look out for an announcement.

“You’ll be happy,” Trump told Schmitt.

What the former president didn’t say, according to two people familiar with the conversation, is that the press release would simultaneously back Schmitt and his rival for the GOP nomination, Eric Greitens. Greitens received a similar call in which Trump congratulated him on the endorsement and made no mention that he also endorsed Schmitt, Missouri’s state attorney general.
Quote
But Trump went in on the details, asking if the two candidates’ first names were spelled identically — noting that it wouldn’t work if they weren’t. While Trump was intrigued, he also remarked that it might be too cute
Quote
Trump pointed out that Greitens might face Trudy Busch Valentine, a wealthy Democratic candidate, in the general election. Busch is heir to the Anheuser-Busch brewing fortune.

“She’s not the weak Bush family,” Trump said, referencing his long-running feud with members of the Bush political dynasty. “She’s the strong Busch family.”

Lot of REEEE energy from that soy reporter.

It's fucking weird, when there's widespread voter fraud you aren't going to vote and when you win you want to keep that outcome.
But for some surrealist reason the Trump candidates win, their voters vote and then claim it was all fraud.  :doge

Maybe they're cheating and hacking all these elections themselves and as long as they scream fraud as loud as possible, no one will investigate :trumps

Probably because their hero won the 2016 election but still raged that the popular vote was stolen from him? And then spent an entire year telling everyone the 2020 election was going to be stolen from him? And has since never stopped telling everyone it was stolen from him? And he only supports candidates who endorse these crazy narratives in the first place?

The guy is completely fucked. In case anyone needs a laugh, here are the details:
https://www.nytimes.com/2022/08/03/us/politics/alex-jones-trial-sandy-hook.html

Quote
Mr. Bankston also produced clips from Mr. Jones’s Infowars broadcast in which he aired a copy of a photograph of the judge in Ms. Lewis’s and Mr. Heslin’s case, Maya Guerra Gamble, engulfed in flames.

“That’s justice burning,” a cowed Mr. Jones told Mr. Bankston.

In another broadcast, Infowars falsely linked the judge to pedophilia and human trafficking; in another, Mr. Jones questioned the intelligence of the jurors in the case, implying that his political enemies had handpicked “blue-collar” people who “don’t know what planet they’re on,” and were ill-equipped to decide what monetary damages he must pay Ms. Lewis and Mr. Heslin. In written questions submitted to Mr. Jones, jurors took immediate issue with that characterization.

Sounds like a winning strategy.

Trump assisted insane candidates had a good night on Tuesday, especially in Michigan. I expect our governor to waltz to re-election now.


Don't have a good read on Arizona but Lake is also insane. Whether that state is cool with that or not...who knows.

Dems have to feel good about 2024 solely based on MI and PA likely re-electing democrat governors and AGs.

9 years for what amounts to 1 gram of weed seems absolutely insane to me but it's not news that countries can have crazy drug laws.

Dark Brandon is a good meme though, it makes both the Trumpists and progressives seethe and cope  :biden
I also like that they haven't deleted the meme yet despite the complaining and reeing.

Posobiec and the others can try to claim that the left can't meme, but most of them can't meme either.
The breeder conservatives and their CPAC circus is more cringe than meme.

The only one who can pull off the comedy special political speech and A-class shit posting game consistently and come up with new material is Trump and his closest rival is Tucker.

He had quite a lengthy statement ready, so either they had this typed up because they expected it, or someone tipped him off.

And he was first to break the news before law enforcement could issue any statement (they still haven't).

The thing is, we don't know if its related to Alex Jones' phone records, Manaforts admission that he sold polling data to Russian friends, the missing documents, the book with new revelations, or the January 6th inquiry.

IE he's a criminal involved in all types of crimes so we'll have to wait and see which one they picked. Only one I really think he'd get in trouble for is the taking of classified documents from the WH. The other stuff? He'll skate like he always does.

When the news story first broke about the missing boxes, white house staffers seem to think it was the letters he received from Kim Jun Un and other worlds leaders that he might've kept as well as stuff that just got mixed up with other documents by accident.

In any case, Fox News is running full defense for Trump, which is somewhat surprising considering no one really knows any details at this point.

Republicans needed something to rally their voters for the midterms, so they will jump on this. Probably to prevent Trump from announcing his 2024 run ASAP.

I'm gonna assume if you get Wray, multiple DOJ officials, a judge, and coward ass Garland to sign off on a warrant to take the most aggressive action against a former president in decades (if not ever), the evidence must be pretty clear cut.

They also seemingly knew exactly where they wanted to go. Which makes me wonder...somebody had a wire?

My theory is that Trump actually called up the FBI to do this raid (everyone knows the FBI is full of Trumps). This way he can campaign as a victim, fighting back against the deep state and the government as an outsider
