"Hi. Matt Lech (Left Reckoning, The Majority Report) joins Katy, Cody, and Jonathan to talk about the latest revelations in the ongoing Trump-Epstein scandal and the IDF's grotesque murder of thousands of Palestinians seeking aid in Gaza."

"For months"? Try "for years" or "for decades."

Really, though, if Trump didn't want to get caught up in this big conspiracy about a guy who ran a literal island for pedophiles, then maybe, I don't know, perhaps Trump should not have almost assuredly raped children, probably. Just saying. Though, yeah, I agree that there's probably not video of Trump actually fucking kids (unless Putin happens to have something stashed away somewhere from Trump's time in Russia), nor is there likely audio or written statements of Trump explicitly discussing potential pre-adolescent fucking activities.

(Remember, too, that Trump was a guy who walked into the dressing rooms while girls were changing clothes at those teen beauty pageants that he ran [which is mentioned in the above embedded video, too]. And, again, all the creepy shit he has said about his own daughters over the years [which is mentioned in the above embedded video, too]. It's way more than just the Epstein shit. Trump is almost certainly a pedophile. And he's a known rapist, aLlEgEdLy.)

Wouldn't it be incredibly fucked up if Donald Trump is the guy who normalizes pedophilia in America, though? Like... he just snaps one day and holds a press conference and is all like "Yeah, I fucked a bunch of kids. Bigly. Yuge amount of kids I fucked. What about it?" and then half of voting age Americans are just like, "Well... if our God Emperor did it, then I guess fucking kids maybe isn't a bad thing, actually?" That would be the icing on the wretched, shit-soaked cake that is Donald Trump's "Aristocrats Joke"-like excuse for a life.

---

Oh, and they mentioned Hillary and the FBI bullshit and James Comey and the like in the above video? I guess that means it must be time for the obligatory mention of the True Pundit Hoax again.

---

And... yeah, Israel is still committing literal fucking genocide. Not much new to say there. It's still ongoing, just like it has been for almost two years now. Nice to see the lamestream media is finally starting to catch up, I guess. (The less I hear about the fucking Nelk Boys the better, though, especially if they're actually, honest-to-god """""interviewing""""" Benjamin fucking Netanyahu of all people. What's next? Logan Paul heading over to Gaza for some more choice outrage-bait content?)

"Hi. On today's episode, we look at the Trump administration's cuts to FEMA, the NOAA, and the National Weather Service, and ask why anyone, even the GOP, would want to get rid of these valuable, non-political entities that only exist to help people."

---

Could have done without the stupid "scream machine" skit, but otherwise, good episode.

Anyway, in conclusion, to hell forever with DOGEald Trump and everything to do with Project 2025, as usual.

"Hi. On today's episode, Katy, Cody, and Jonathan talk about the many ways the Trump administration is trying to get the media to move on from his Epstein scandal, including accusing Barack Obama of treason, accusing Adam Schiff of mortgage fraud, and demanding that the Washington Commanders change their team name back to a racial slur."

---

Based on just the headline, I'll just say, "All the more reason to keep the focus on Epstein, I guess." But then, even the Epstein shit is just a distraction from all the current Chaotic Stupid Evil shit that the Trump """""administration""""" is continuously doing.

And based on the video description, yeah... Donald Trump, of all people, going after anyone else for fucking mortgage fraud is fucking ludicrous.

Now, to actually watch it.

And... that's about all I have to say about the video. It's as good as it ever is, but I don't feel the need to "live" blog my viewing of it, this time.

---

Oh, on a related tangent... as for Trump having "never wrote a picture in [his] life," yeah... that was, obviously, a fucking lie. Because Trump lies. Trump is a liar. Trump is a lying piece of shit. And he lies about easily verifiable shit like this.

I mean, yeah, they're very, very shitty drawings, sure, but they're still drawings. (Trump's got nothing on Adolf Hitler in that respect, at least, even if he's very similar to Hitler in far too many other ways.) Also... why does Trump's signature look like the output of a seismograph? I guess that's fitting, since Trump is a natural disaster in vaguely human shape, after all. Well, I guess we can add "doesn't know how to properly write his own goddamn name in cursive" to the list of Trump's flaws.

Anyway, in conclusion, to hell forever with Donald Trump, as usual.

Yet more frivolous, chaotic, (probably intentionally) distracting Donald Trump dumbfuckery.

(Via The Daily Cartoonist.)

"Hi. Comedian Josh Gondelman joins Katy, Cody, and Jonathan to talk about the latest in the Trump/Epstein debacle, how MAGA grifters like Benny Johnson are scrambling to decide what they believe, the latest inflation numbers, the GOP defunding NPR & PBS, and Grok's new creepy 'companions.'

"(And, as is typical, we finished recording right before The Wall Street Journal published that Trump-Epstein birthday card! We'll talk about that soon, but until then, may every day be another wonderful secret.)"

---

(Here is [an archive.is snapshot of] that The Wall Street Journal article about Trump's bawdy birthday card to Jeffrey Epstein that they mention in the description. Trump, of course, says it's fake, because he "never wrote a picture in my life.")

Karoline Leavitt on screen? Instant "middle-finger worthy" tag inclusion. Of course, the later Donald Trump clips would have justified it, even if that hadn't already done so.

"It's like the dog caught the car, and the car was full of pedophiles, and the dog was also a pedophile."

"It makes it seems like they're all untrustworthy and they're in this position that they're now stuck in because they supported this serial liar and now it's them. 'The elites! The government! They're all in charge and they're all lying to you! Oh... we're the elites and the government now. We have to lie to everybody...' is the situation they're in right now."

Oh, and let me guess, the "credible" files are only the ones that don't obviously include Trump's name all over them. Gotcha.

"[Trump] is too cooked to know how to get out of this on his own. This is like watching Bugs Bunny be like 'I can't put on that dress again. I'm not going to fool this guy into thinking I'm a sexy lady. Why do you even want to hunt me?' He's just past his prime as a liar. He's lying about a thing that people care about and lying in a way that insults their intelligence to their faces. He's still so effective at telling people the lies that they want to hear when he is aligned with them, but when he's adversarial, he's not good at making excuses. All he can say is no, and that's not good enough when you've spent a decade frothing people up about like John Podesta eating babies allegedly and all that shit. And now [Trump] is like actually there's nothing, it was written by my enemies, and they're like well then what the fuck were you talking about for 10 years?"

"Leaving a cult doesn't mean it wasn't a cult."

So, apparently, the RWNJ horseshit narrative now really, actually is "WeLl, BiDeN pRoBaBlY pUt SoMe LiEs In ThE ePsTeIn FiLeS jUsT tO mAkE tRuMp LoOk BaD." How utterly, tediously banal.

Charlie Kirk: "[My] balls are in their hands."

It wasn't mentioned in the video above, but keep in mind, too, that Trump has very heavily implied that he wants to fuck his own daughters and has been doing so for decades. (How old is Tiffany Trump now?) Is it really so hard to believe that, maybe, just maybe, Trump also fucked some underage girls on the sly? Possibly ones that looked like Ivanka and/or Tiffany? You know, if that really were a thing that allegedly almost assuredly happened and all.

In any case, none of this Epstein shit will matter at all a month from now, maybe even a week from now. All the dipshits who were already predisposed to suck Trump's mushroom chode will be back to slurping it just as they have been for the past ten years now, and everything will continue to suck rancid asshole for everyone who was not predisposed to do that.

And yeah, that new Grok thing is pretty fucking creepy and weird. <-- Evergreen statement.

"Hi. People say 'the government should run more like a business' all the time, but when you think about it, that's a pretty bad idea precisely because of how businesses work."

Betteridge's Law of Headlines strikes again.

Also, spoiler alert: it's all fascist, Nazi shit. Because, these days, of course it is.

(I certainly wouldn't mind if the current government [as in the people in charge of said government, not necessarily the rank and file workers] was run like Battle Royale or The Hunger Games or The Long Walk or Survival of the Fittest or the Thunderdome [but only as long as the surviving winner is immediately fed feet first into a wood chipper].)

In his ludicrous attempts to un-"woke" Grok, Elron Mustard's solution was apparently to just have it pull its answers directly from his own online collection of liquid sharts, at least for "controversial" topics.

It took the Internet as a whole less than one day to turn Tay into a Nazi. So... how long, exactly, has it taken super genius Phony Stark to do the same with Grok now? And, again, his current attempt at a "fix," in his laughable (and blatantly dishonest) quest for a "maximally truth-seeking AI" (and to remove that pesky bias toward actual reality), seems to have been "just ask me first."

Maybe I'd post less about the Supreme Court if I only posted on the rare occasions where they didn't do that.

Of course it won't be "so easy." Even if everything comes up completely aces for the Democrats between now and whenever, I am sure that they'll somehow manage to find a way to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory, as they have done far too often lately.

Also, I kind of really despise the fact that the Democrat "leadership" seem to be thinking about this shit in terms of "the bIg BeAuTiFuL bIlL is terrible and is going to hurt a lot of people... and that's great, because it gives us a chance to win again!!!" rather than in terms of "the BiG bEaUtIfUl BiLl is terrible and is going to hurt a lot of people. Period. Full Stop. End of Line. Do not pass Go. Do not collect $200."

It would be like playing in some sportsball thing, seeing the other team's star player literally die on the sportsplace due to some horrendous injury, and immediately thinking "Wonderful! We can actually win this game now!" (EDIT) Well, no, I guess this would be less like seeing the other team's star player die and more like seeing that star player go batshit insane, dive into the crowd, murder several of the audience members (half or more of whom were there specifically because they were megafans of that very star player), and get arrested and dragged away in handcuffs, and then immediately thinking "Yes! Awesome! This is our chance!" (/EDIT)

On the one hand, it is mind boggling to me that "the Democratic brand remains deeply unpopular" given that their opponents are, you know... *gestures vaguely in the direction of Dumbshit Jackass Trump and the GQP*, but on the other hand, given my own personal observations of the Democrats over the years and the fact that I, myself (a registered Democrat), don't even like them very much (though I still like them many orders of magnitude more than I like the GQP), it's not actually all that shocking or surprising that they're so heavily disliked lately. And shit like this is why. They seem almost ecstatic by the fact that this dogshit bill got passed, because, at least in their minds, it seems to give them the "in" that they so desperately needed. I mean, no, that's not quite as vile and evil as thinking that this dogshit bill is actually good, but still, it's pretty vile, all the same.

"Hi. Katy, Cody, and Jonathan are here to discuss the Supreme Court's rulings against nationwide injunctions and how every non-white baby, starting next month, is going to need to lawyer up to establish that they're a U.S. citizen. They also go through some of the worst parts of the GOP mega-bill, which is set to strip about 12 million people of their Medicaid coverage."

---

Yeah, Katy, the next shitsucking GQP megabill should be called "2 Big 2 Beautiful."

"People are about to see..." Well, no, I'm way more pessimistic there, because if people haven't fucking already seen the disgusting, horrid, vile, evil things that Trump and Trump's people/the people who prop up Trump for their own gain have been doing and trying to do for the past decade now and have voted for him three times now (including 2020), regardless, then there's no guarantee that they "are about to see" it now. And even if they do see it, they will rationalize it as being the Democrats' fault somehow, because shit like Faux Noise will tell them that it is the Democrats' fault, and they will swallow it, hook, line, and sinker (and, of course, the Democrats will be completely ineffectual, as always, in countering such blatant, obvious lies).
