Fox FIRES Trump sycophant in major shake-up

Longtime Fox News host Maria Bartiromo fired after leaking company info to Trump

BYE BYE, FE-LIE-SHA! The longtime Fox host who metastasized from benign finance bozo to full-blown, election-steal conspiracy tumor has been abruptly fired from the network for — you guessed it — pushing election-steal conspiracies. Or more specifically, not being *allowed* to push election-steal conspiracies, then leaking the company's stance on the matter to Donald himself.

After Donald Trump gave a speech in July pushing the Big Lie (again), Fox ordered its hosts to stay far, far away from it, likely due to the staggering $787 million settlement they were forced pay the LAST time the network peddled the MAGA cult leader's bullshit conspiracy theories.

Bartiromo, dutiful sycophant that she is, then leaked the company's directive to the Trump administration, which has now led to her ousting. Good riddance!

VIDEO OF THE DAY: State Supreme Court ruling ROCKS midterm elections

The Missouri state Supreme Court just UNANIMOUSLY rejected a new Trump-backed congressional map from being used in the November midterm election and ordered the whole thing to be put to a statewide vote instead. The map Republicans rammed through last year stripping away yet another Democratic district is no longer valid, and the 2020 Census map will remain in effect this fall.

It's also definitely worth noting that FIVE of the seven justices on the court were appointed by Republican governors, lest anyone out there named Donald kicks and screams about "HiGhLy cOnFliCtEd," activist judges enacting a radical "leftist" agenda.

Paralympian Democrat Josh Turek goes for gold in must-win Senate race in Iowa

Josh Turek for US Senate: Josh Turek is a two-time Paralympic gold medalist for Team USA and self-described “prairie populist” currently representing the reddest state House seat held by a Democrat in all of Iowa. The same grit and determination that helped Josh overcome 21 surgeries by the age of 12 to become a US Paralympian will serve him — and all of Iowa — well in the US Senate, but he needs our help to win back the open seat currently held by retiring Republican Joni Ernst. Will you chip in to help Josh flip this critical seat back into the blue column and send an unmistakable message to Donald Trump and Republicans in Congress that a new day is dawning in America?

JD Vance says you should be grateful gas prices aren't even higher

Speaking to reporters at the White House on Thursday, JD Vance claimed that the United States has been "quite successful up to this point" keeping gas from skyrocketing even higher, despite Americans paying exorbitant prices at the pump for much of the year. "Gas, frankly, could've been much, much higher were it not for our efforts," the cosplay hillbilly claimed.

Did you get that, you selfish ingrates? You should thankful gas prices aren't even higher! Sure, we launched a preemptive war, gummed up the world's busiest oil shipping channel, and have no viable exit strategy, but if the US left the Persian Gulf now, there would be "no guaranteed access to oil and gas" and prices could surge even higher.

In other words: we have no choice but to employ the arsonists to keep their wildfire from burning further out of control.

Former Trump White House lawyer says president will "steal these elections"

Former Trump White House lawyer Ty Cobb spoke with MS NOW's Ari Melber yesterday and bluntly spelled out why, in his opinion, Donald isn't bothering to use his $400 million campaign war chest to help Republicans in vulnerable midterm races: "I think Trump doesn't feel he needs to spend this money because it is his intention to interfere with the elections and to steal these elections where possible."

When former members of the president's inner circle sound the alarm, we should probably listen.

Wall Street Journal drops damning exposé on John Fetterman

Feigning illness...so he could go on Fox News to talk about Israel. Accusing the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia of wanting "free trips to DC." Ghosting paralyzed veterans. Dodging meetings with advocacy groups and state lawmakers. Blowing off fallen police officers' funerals. Skipping committee hearings. Playing hooky in the Senate. Soliciting an Israeli ambassador for boilerplate talking points for a glazing op-ed. You name, Fetterman's done it.

This ill-tempered brute is up for reelection in 2028. Let's be sure he's nowhere near the Democratic ballot when the general election comes around.

Trump is pouring more taxpayer funds into Reflecting Pool repairs, with costs surging to nearly $20 million

The wannabe dictator's $1.5 million renovation of the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool ballooned to $7 million before nearly doubling to $13.1 million, then surged past $16 million before climbing yet again to nearly $20 million. Oh, also. The pool is still empty and fenced off from the public, and there is no timeframe on when ongoing repairs will actually be completed.

Wait, did we say Donald is pouring more money into the pool? Sorry, taxpayers are footing the bill, of course. Anyone willing place a bet that latest sticker price will hold?

"We've told them he cannot come": Republicans grapple with how to handle Trump on the trail

Donald being Donald, he wants to make the upcoming midterms all about himself, despite historically awful polling numbers and a growing number of Republicans who would much prefer he sit this one out. Even in areas the president carried by double digits in 2024, Republicans are increasingly wary of tying themselves too closely to the wannabe dictator.

Many privately admit they're stuck in an uncomfortable spot: by running too far from Trump, they risk alienating the MAGA faithful or the cult leader himself, whose super PAC is sitting on more than $400 million they desperately need deployed to help them win key races. But if the candidates keep Donald close, they could sink alongside him.

Spineless cowards that they are, few Republicans are actually willing to go on the official record telling Trump to stay away. But the murmurings are impossible to ignore. “We’ve told them he cannot come,” said an unnamed senior Republican involved in a competitive House GOP race in a district where Trump won comfortably in 2024. "Candidly, he would not be helpful here … I do not believe they would send him without our OK. And if they did, we probably wouldn't campaign with him."
