OMG.
And you thought Nick Fuentes was the turd in the Republican punchbowl.

Hegseth should never have been confirmed to SECDEF, Inspector General's report finds his use of Signal in March jeopardized troop safety against the Houthis
Hegseth risked ‘potential harm to US pilots’ in using Signal to discuss strikes: Report
... “The Secretary sent nonpublic DoD information identifying the quantity and strike times of manned U.S. aircraft over hostile territory over an unapproved, unsecure network approximately 2 to 4 hours before the execution of those strikes,” the report states.
“Using a personal cell phone to conduct official business and send nonpublic DoD information through Signal risks potential compromise of sensitive DoD information, which could cause harm to DoD personnel and mission objectives.” ...
“Although the Secretary wrote in his July 25 statement to the DoD OIG that ‘there were no details that would endanger our troops or the mission,’ if this information had fallen into the hands of U.S. adversaries, Houthi forces might have been able to counter U.S. forces or reposition personnel and assets to avoid planned U.S. strikes,” the report concluded.
“Even though these events did not ultimately occur, the Secretary’s actions created a risk to operational security that could have resulted in failed U.S. mission objectives and potential harm to U.S. pilots.” ...

Ronald Reagan July 3, 1983: Don't let anyone tell us that America's best days are behind her (but they are)
The speech is here.
Unfortunately the numbers don't lie. Shortly after that speech, economic growth rolled over definitively. I think Reagan said what he said because serious people around him were telling him we were in big trouble (1982) and he didn't want to believe it. It was a denial of reality, similar to the denial of reality so typical today from Donald Trump.
Michael W. Green (@profplum99) describes in a recent essay in great detail many of the ways in which we are indeed poorer, especially people who have to live in New Jersey and work in New York, in his "My Life is a Lie" here.
The essay resonates mostly with people in the top 20%, which certainly doesn't include YT. But I found it very interesting, however, for how it starts off resting on the mistaken assumption that we have "healthy GDP growth". It is Green's unquestioned and fatal premise, no different than Reagan's or Trump's before him.
We do not have healthy GDP growth now, nor have we had it for a long time, at least not commensurate with a population which has grown by 106 million since 1984.
The compound annual growth rate for GDP from 1929 to 1984 was 6.869%, but through 2024 has fallen 26% to 5.079%.
"Well, that doesn't sound so bad", you say.
Well, the 5.079% rate has given us GDP of $29.3 trillion through 2024.
But at the 6.869% rate we would have GDP of $60.4 trillion, $31.1 trillion more than we do, more than twice as much again.
We have multiple new generations who expected the 1984 fairy tale who are now on the receiving end of 50% less than what might have been.
Solving this growth problem has been the number one aspiration of many on the right year in and year out, but no one has delivered on it. The current pack are not conservatives. They've given up. They are simply hyenas, feasting off the flesh of the wounded, of whom there are more than ever.

Pro-Trump anarchist confessed to planting pipe bombs at DNC and RNC on January 5, 2021
Sure, sure, a pro-Trump anarchist.
I'm glad we got that cleared up.
... While in custody, Cole confessed to planting the pipe bombs, which did not detonate, two sources familiar with his interview with the FBI told MS NOW. ...
Core pce inflation ticked down to 2.82% year over year in September from 2.90% in August 2025, but for 3Q2025 it ticked up to 2.86% yoy, which is elevated 78% above pre-pandemic experience
But the damn fools will cut DFF again no doubt, despite the fact that recent cuts averaging 1.44 have done nothing to reduce inflation, or increase it.
The inflation rate has been going sideways the whole time in the high 2s since April 2024.
The metric averaged 1.61% 2016-2020 inclusive.
At 1.61% inflation your money is worth half what it was in 45 years, at 2.86% just 25 years.

Senator Tom Cotton calling the September 2nd drug boat strikes righteous is utterly contemptible: The US military waited an hour to kill the shipwrecked survivors
Two men who survived a US airstrike on a suspected drug smuggling boat in the Caribbean clung to the wreckage for an hour before they were killed in a second attack, according to a video of the episode shown to senators in Washington.
The men were shirtless, unarmed and carried no visible radio or other communications equipment. They also appeared to have no idea what had just hit them, or that the US military was weighing whether to finish them off, two sources familiar with the recording told Reuters.
The pair desperately tried to turn a severed section of the hull upright before they died. “The video follows them for about an hour as they tried to flip the boat back over. They couldn’t do it,” one source said. ...
The US Department of Defense’s Law of War manual forbids attacks on combatants who are incapacitated, unconscious or shipwrecked, so long as they abstain from hostilities and do not attempt to escape. The manual cites firing upon shipwreck survivors as an example of a “clearly illegal” order that should be refused. ...
These aren't even combatants. The military has no business in any of this. That's why we have a Coast Guard in the first place.
But they did kill them all, including the survivors which is a war crime, and they're murderers because the drug runners are noncombatants
If the US military is allowed this completely novel idea that it can kill noncombatants, THEY CAN KILL YOU.
They're also conspirators who tried to cover up their crime.
Admiral says there was no 'kill them all' order in boat attack, but video alarms lawmakers...
After the September 2nd debacle, they changed their policy about survivors, which shows they knew all along that they were wrong to kill the survivors on September 2nd.
There were survivors of the sixth attack, on October 16th. Those survivors they recovered and repatriated.
That incident was reported as the first known case of survivors because they covered up that there were survivors on September 2nd.
These people know they committed murder on September 2nd and they tried to hide it. Now they're madly spinning.
What Trump is doing is wildly illegal, wildly un-American.

Trump's base is not happy: Strong disapproval of Trump hits new high 46% in Rasmussen Reports Poll, strong approval hits new low 27% for a second day
Trump's total disapproval score remains at a record high 55% for a second day.
His strong approval score is now a record low 27%, lower than his April 9th tariff low of 29%, his only sub-30 score until the last two weeks.
Trump has had a string of eleven sub-30 strong approval scores since November 11th.
Trump kicked off the period on November 11th stating that we needed H-1B workers because we didn't have enough talent in America. The longest federal government shutdown in history ended on Wednesday the 12th. Around the 15th he reversed his tariffs on coffee and other food items which had contributed to their record high prices in the first place. The same day brought the news that he had also stabbed Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia in the back over her criticism of the GOP's refusal to extend the Obamacare premium tax credits. The Epstein files saga came to a head on the 18th requiring their release, but will we ever see them? TikTok was supposed to be sold or shut down by act of Congress, too, and it has not been. On the 19th Trump was kissing the ass of the Saudi killer of Khashoggi, MBS, in the Oval Office. On the 20th Trump's secret 28-point plan with Russia to carve up Ukraine came to light. On the 22nd Democrats went on camera talking darkly about illegal orders being given to the military in the Caribbean. A National Guard soldier was executed on the streets of DC on the 26th by an Afghan refugee let into America by Biden but given residency by Trump. By the 29th we learned that survivors of a Trump drug boat attack in the Caribbean on September 2 were executed in a subsequent strike by the US military, which they obviously hoped no one would ever find out about. They spent the whole time since making up shit about this being a war justifying military engagement when everyone knows it's not a war and killing people for running drugs in the first place is wrong, otherwise the job we give the Coast Guard to do year in and year out has been simply a pointless exercise.
Trump's base is not happy. Pick your reason(s).

Trump cuts vehicle fuel economy goal to 34 mpg by 2031 from 50 mpg by 2031 under Biden
CNBC.
AI says the current US light duty vehicle fleet gets about 26 mpg.
Trump isn't interested in Venezuela because of the drugs, it's the oil
This entire drug war is a charade.
Trump, April 2011: "I'm only interested in Libya if we take the oil".
He just pardoned the former Honduran president sentenced to 45 years over cocaine, but he's going after the Venezuelan president over drugs?
Venezuela has 4x the proven oil reserves of the United States, tops in the world, and it's right in our backyard.
Trump isn't interested in peace and freedom in Ukraine, either. All he wants is a piece of action.
All that lizard brain cares about is money.
Vladimir Putin found that the Trump, Kushner, Witkoff appeasement offer was one he could indeed refuse
... The talks in Moscow came after Putin launched a tirade against Europe, saying that its counter peace proposals were “absolutely unacceptable” for Russia, and that the region’s leadership had “no peace agenda.”
“We’re not going to war with Europe; I’ve said that a hundred times. But if Europe suddenly wants to fight us and starts, we’re ready right now,” Putin told journalists ahead of his meeting with Witkoff and Kushner.
European officials have expressed consternation in recent weeks that they, and Ukraine, were excluded from initial talks between the U.S. and Russia that led to an original draft peace plan seen to heavily favor Russia. ...
Trump is a con job of the billionaires, by the billionaires, and for the billionaires
'Affordability is a con job by the Democrats,' Trump says
You need to earn $158,000/year [2.6x = 410,800] for the median home in the United States to be affordable.
93% don't.
Trump's indefensible kill-everybody-policy in the Caribbean means up to 20% of those he's murdering could be entirely innocent according to none other than the U.S. Coast Guard
Instead of pouring money into the military to kill people, Trump should have poured the money into the Coast Guard, which apprehended, without murdering anybody, about 171 drug boats in the last fiscal year.
Every American should be ashamed about what Trump & Company is doing.
