Son of a billionaire invites another son of a billionaire to shit on New York

Self-made billionaire genius James Dolan, whose billionaire father, Charles, bought him the NY Knicks [1] and made him the head of his business empire (think young Donald and his dad, Fred) invited Donald J. Trump to be his guest in a luxury box in Madison Square Garden to watch game three (and maybe four) of the Knicks-Spurs championship series. The Knicks are chasing history, in position to tie the longest postseason winning streak on the way to winning a championship for the first time since 1973. The Knicks franchise has been handicapped by the idiotic and impulsive Dolan’s epic failures and tantrums over the last thirty years or so.

Security for game three at Madison Square Garden will be a nightmare for Knicks fans tomorrow night (paying fans — tickets for the cheapest seats are $9,000 — are already being rapaciously gouged by Dolan, of course [2]). Those with tickets to see the game are advised to arrive at least two hours early and carry nothing with them. A throng of joyous New Yorkers won’t get to watch the game live on a giant screen outside the Garden on Seventh Avenue where thousands have assembled for each of the first two games — out of security concerns for Trump and his entourage. New Yorkers have been celebrating, as their team has been dominant in the postseason and a championship is in reach for the first time in more than half a century.

The smart, selfless play of this well-balanced, indomitable Knicks team, their collective cool under fire, is a living illustration of the power of teamwork and trust in your abilities as a group, has brought great joy to New York City during very ugly times for our country. This team embodies the best in us, smart, calm, skillful, each doing their part to help their teammates and advance their mutual goals.

Dolan and Trump are built differently, being both born very stable hereditary geniuses who rule their kingdoms with a mighty, supremely entitled, hand. They don’t believe in community, teamwork, the common good, sound advice or anything else. They believe only in their own abusive quest for glory and immortality. It is natural that the hated son of billionaire Charles Dolan would inflict something as disgusting as Trump on New York City at this exciting moment for New Yorkers. No joy is too small for a billionaire egomaniac to shit on by publicly licking the ass of another billionaire egomaniac. Dolan cut to the front of the line of those billionaires ready to pleasure the demented president. Whatever happened to “fuck you” money if you can’t ever have enough not to line up to blow an insane autocrat in hopes of a few million more bucks?

Trump, who will be greeted with thunderous boos from the crowd he is fucking by his attendance, is always delighted for the chance to slip his puckered mushroom into a willing, wealthy receptacle. He’s indicated that he’s tickled by Dolan’s invite and intends to go to game three of the NBA championship, and maybe game four as well.

Leave it up to fucking James Dolan, hated by Knicks fans for his decades of disastrously stupid decisions sabotaging the Knicks and betraying their fans. A series of impulsive, boneheaded decisions, temper tantrums, idiotic hirings and firings, all based on billionaire James Dolan’s belief that he was born for greatness, his wealth is proof of his genius, and that his excrement is delicious. You can look this piece of garbage up on the internet for the details of what a supreme asshole he is in his personal and professional life. Here’s a word about how much this despicable blowhard is hated by Knicks fans:

Knicks fans have called for Dolan to sell the team, and Dolan banned one fan from attending games for imploring him to sell the team.

He has also used facial recognition to prevent those involved in litigation against him or his companies from attending events at venues he runs.

ESPN reported in November [2023] that Dolan resigned from the NBA’s finance and media committees, saying in a memo, “Given all that has occurred lately, I have come to the conclusion that the NBA neither needs nor wants my opinion.” source

So, naturally, Dolan saddles up in his private bomber, tanks filled with excrement, and, at the perfect moment, unleashes a tide of liquid shit on Knicks fans, on all of New York, because that’s what self-made billionaire geniuses always do, don’t they? Somebody give this asshole a chainsaw to swing over his head at the celebration of his glorious Knick championship. I wonder if they already have the next Trump “assassin” in place at the Garden to make this community-bonding moment during game three about who it is really about — two fly-encrusted turds, born to rule.

The despised Dolan invites America’s Hitler (according to JD Vance, before his temporary, transactional conversion to MAGA) as the living repudiation of what sports fans all over the country are watching. This Knicks team represents camaraderie, teamwork, calm under pressure, nobody trying to be The Man, trust in teammates, a sense of balance, getting timely, important contributions from all. What do Trump and Dolan represent? Spoiled, disgustingly wealthy (based on their inheritances) brittle, “self-made” “rugged individuals” who rule by sheer will, impervious to good advice and blaming everyone else for the predictable results of their stupid decisions. These are two of the most thin-skinned, incompetent jackasses ever to disgrace their respective positions.

Dolan’s grotesque invitation makes perfect sense in the morality play we are all doing our best to survive. Dolan and Trump certainly deserve each other, but New York and the world don’t.

Hannah Arendt speaking to this moment

Nothing is more dangerous to nature and humanity than an inability to think.    This inability to think is deliberately, mindfully fostered by those who make the most money, and seize great power, when  people can’t think.  Without critical thinking it is impossible to choose well between complex alternatives, to accurately identify problems in the first place, to protect ourselves from predators. 

A populace that can’t think is ideal for manipulation, many of them will be ready to tolerate or commit atrocities for an incoherent “cause”.  The Sleep of Reason Produces Monsters, as Francisco Goya the painter observed.   Here’s Hannah Arendt, who clearly identified this central villain of human history, from a few generations ago.  

American children raised watching TV, and devices, see more than 10,000 hours of advertising, tailored to their baby minds, before they learn to read. Today attention spans are shattered, brains and social interactions rewired, by constant smartphone notifications from people trying to sell something, push some idea, inoculate the “user” against critical thinking by amplifying their own prejudices and likes and silencing opposing ideas. The algorithms that cater to our personalized prejudices are making a small number of neuroatypical men unlimited billions of dollars as they emotionally and intellectually immiserate billions of vulnerable human beings.

We are at the “mercy” of psychopaths at the moment. Only we, by acting together and thinking as critical problem solvers, can stop these merciless, insane bastards who would have everything. They will own everything even if it takes destroying the earth itself, the biosphere, all the animals and all but a handful of specially selected humans who will live on militarized luxury islands, in outer space or in well-furnished spas deep under the ground. Fuck those putos.

Trump’s legal talent, and deal making brilliance

The proud, the few, the fewer and fewer, Trump’s increasingly less competent Department of Justice. Trump’s childishly vindictive reign — he is our retribution, after all, as promised — (and, arguably, America’s punishment for centuries of racism, slavery, mass murder of the indigenous people, sexism, tolerance of pedophilia, consequence-free rape and so on) requires the unquestioning loyalty of unprincipled men and women (almost overwhelmingly white and almost all born male) who will do literally anything for proximity to power.

If a law needs breaking, they must be prepared to defiantly break it. If an honest answer to the court will make the boss look bad, and hamper “his” vengeful, cruel and illegal “agenda” — lie. As federal appeals judge for life Emil Bove instructed his attorneys going into court to defend the illegal detentions and deportations of several hundred men, be prepared to say “fuck you” to nosy federal Judge Boasberg if he tries to push back against illegal government tactics. Thousands of career lawyers in the Department of Justice have either been forced out, fired (scores for prosecuting January 6 rioters or working with Jack Smith — same with FBI agents) or demoted for lack of, I don’t know the German word for it, unlimited zeal for the Leader’s every corrupt and vicious whim. The New York Times notes:

Things have gotten so ugly with the openly corrupt Trump/Charles Koch/Heritage Foundation/Federalist Society agenda, and its in-your-fucking-face AI generated dump of tons of excrement on America, that even the NY Times has felt empowered to be a little saucy with her headlines. Picture the clucking, matronly tone of voice delivering, after the pause indicated by the comma, ” and it stings.” Shaking her head, pitying you: “it stings, doesn’t it? I know, the truth hurts…”

Any judge ruling against the president’s/Project 2025’s “agenda” is deemed a dangerous, sick, partisan hack activist judge. Here’s former Krisi Noem spokesperson, from a few months back, when she defended the unconstitutional practices of the Department of Homeland Security:

In February, then–DHS spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin explained away the administration’s dismal record by saying that “many activist judges have attempted to thwart President Trump from fulfilling the American people’s mandate for mass deportations.” source

We, you and I, elected Mr. Trump (by a landslide and, coincidentally, a victory, by almost identical margins, in all seven swing states) and gave him a mandate to open a nationwide system of brutal concentration camps to house millions of “illegals” of all ages (and the five year-olds are as dangerous as the 75 year-olds, aren’t they?).  That’s exactly why we put the man in power, isn’t it?  That’s democracy and if you don’t like it, GEO group has a nice, damp cement cell you can share with twelve other cucks, with a nice bowl of maggot-filled mush twice a day if you’re hungry.

You see, people like Trump, Koch, the insane chainsaw wielding Musk, hate fueled zombie Stephen Miller, can NEVER BE WRONG ABOUT ANYTHING.  You must understand this.   They are capable of committing unthinkable acts to never be wrong, to prevail, to try to bring about the triumph of their will.  

Trump can muse at a news conference about how weird it would be to sue himself, then a few months later he can sue himself, settle with himself (with a deal that ends all IRS investigations into years of his tax fraud, and his family’s — retroactively, prospectively and in perpetuity) and attack the judicial process that calls bullshit on his bullshit. 

If it comes out of your ass, sir, and it smells like shit, and when you smear it on the wall it looks like shit, it’s unlikely to be anything else.  The same goes for the excrement that pours out of your pie hole, sir.

When the judge in Trump et al v. The Internal Revenue Service saw Trump quickly withdraw the baseless, fraudulent lawsuit the day before the judge would have dismissed it as a baseless, fraudulent lawsuit — and thrown out the clearly fake “settlements” that Trump claims ended the suit, she noted in her decision that no settlement had been filed with the court, as is required. The two-part “settlement” only came out after Trump dismissed the case against himself.

Undaunted Trump’s lawyers, the Acting Attorney General most prominent among them, insisted over and over, in public, that the illegal seizure of almost two billion dollars in taxpayer funds to compensate Trump allies and innocent victims of Biden’s DOJ vindictively prosecuted and convicted, or forced to plead guilty, to Trumped up charges of breaking into the Capitol, assaulting police, respectfully defecating in the halls of Congress, chanting “Hang Mike Pence” after constructing a gallows outside the Capitol, assaulting those defending the joint session of Congress as members and their staff fled for their lives, conspiring to bring weapons across from Virginia for a fully armed assault, etc. was completely above board, He also defended the second half of the “settlement” released the day after the slush fund was created, the one that said the IRS can never investigate Trump for anything, ever. Blanche claims that his order that the IRS will never investigate any person or entity associated with Trump, his children or the Trump organization is 100% legal and binding, now and forever. He also claims it does not give anyone “blanket immunity”. I have to say, Blanche is a fucking moron, though one must admire his doglike brazeness, I suppose.

When the judge reopened the case to hold a hearing on the clear fraud on the court and the conspiracy to bring about these fake “settlements”, after a filing by 35 retired federal judges of urged her to do so [1], TACO Trump immediately withdrew the slush fund — though Blanche, as pathetic a suck up as I’ve ever seen in politics, insists his order that the IRS never investigate anyone related to Trump will stand for all time, and that there is nothing foul or in the least bit irregular or suspicious about the order.   Just don’t hold it too close to your nose.

[1]   35 retired federal judges were not having this shit, and their motion to the judge who consented to dismissing the case is worth reading in its entirety.  It is beautifully written and perfectly argues a flawless point, the judge who dismissed the case is legally permitted toand must, reopen Trump’s fake case for a hearing on a fraud against the Court.  The next day she did.  Trump’s “answer” to conspiracy to commit fraud on the court is due on June 12, two days before the handsome rascal turns an athletic eighty years old.  I told a nurse yesterday that I plan to celebrate my birthday by hosting a cage match on somebody else’s lawn. Hey, if you can do it, why not?

If you work for a cheating psychopath…

People have to do things they may not want to do to please their boss, particularly if your boss is an unreasonable, demanding asshole. When your boss is Donald Trump, you sometimes are asked to do extreme things, illegal things. If you do them, you keep your job (for the moment). So you do things like this:

Federal judges have been accusing [Trump DOJ] prosecutors of misconduct, most recently in a case last week in Chicago in which a grand jury indicted six people, including a Democratic congressional candidate, for interfering with a federal agent and conspiring to interfere with a federal agent at a protest at a detention facility.

As Julie Bosman of the New York Times reported, U.S. District Judge April Perry dismissed the case after she discovered that prosecutors had talked to individual grand jurors outside the courtroom and removed those jurors who refused to indict, as well as apparently overstating the strength of the evidence against the defendants. After making these maneuvers, the prosecutors then tried to hide evidence of them by redacting the transcripts from the grand jury. source

In an extremely rare DOJ case ruled vindictive prosecution, the court found that the Trump DOJ had brought a baseless criminal prosecution against Kilmar Abrego Garcia in order to punish him for exercising his rights in court, and beating a team of Trump’s lackies to vindicate rights they clearly violated.  Here is former DOJ prosecutor Glenn Kirschner explaining vindictive prosecution to Dean Obeidallah.

So it’s no surprise when ambitious scumbags, working for a criminally insane boss, file a fake lawsuit and make a fake “settlement” (as the fake lawsuit is about to be dismissed as a fraud) to defraud US taxpayers out of almost $2,000,000,000 and finance an army of loyal violent white men who have already demonstrated their willingness to gouge the eyes out of police officers to serve the illegal wishes of the man who brought the fake lawsuit and established the slush fund to pay them.

35 retired federal judges were not having this shit, and their motion to the judge who consented to dismissing the case is worth reading in its entirety.  It is beautifully written and perfectly argues a flawless point, the judge who dismissed the case is legally permitted to, and must, reopen Trump’s fake case for a hearing on a fraud against the Court.  Here’s the introduction:

On May 18, 2026, this Court dismissed this action with prejudice in response to Plaintiffs’ Notice of Voluntary Dismissal with Prejudice, filed earlier that day. The Court expressly noted in its Order dismissing the case that “the Notice does not reference any settlement or include a stipulation of settlement,” and thus “there is no settlement of record.” The Court further noted that Defendants “neither submitted any settlement documents nor filed any documents ensuring that settlement was appropriate where there was an outstanding question as to whether an actual case or controversy existed.”

The Court was deceived. Despite Plaintiffs not having mentioned any settlement in their Notice, the Department of Justice (“DOJ”) publicly announced a “settlement” of this action shortly after Plaintiffs filed their dismissal. That “settlement” commandeers the contrived sum of $1.776 billion from the United States Treasury, to be handed out to recipients chosen by a commission effectively controlled by the President. The DOJ is calling this the “Anti-Weaponization Fund.”

The day after the “settlement” containing the Anti-Weaponization Fund was announced, the DOJ announced that it had subsequently agreed to release “any and all claims . . . whether presently known or unknown, that—as of the Effective Date of the Settlement Agreement—have been or could have been asserted by [the United States] against any of the Plaintiffs or related or affiliated individuals . . . or parties . . . by reason of, with respect to, in connection with, or which arise out of . . . any matters currently pending or that could be pending . . . before Defendants or other agencies or departments.”4 The plain language of this extremely broad provision sweeps in Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) audits of Plaintiffs’ tax returns and all other claims the United States might have against Plaintiffs—extraordinary benefits for which no consideration was provided to the government.5

The parties to this case are using this lawsuit as the legal justification for these actions. This is not speculation; the parties themselves have proclaimed it, repeatedly. For starters, the DOJ implemented all of the actions described above via a document expressly titled “Settlement Agreement,” captioned with this case’s caption, plus a three-paragraph addendum that references that “Settlement Agreement” in its first paragraph and in its third paragraph purports to “forever bar[] and preclude[]” the United States from pursuing claims that could have been asserted “by Defendants against any of the Plaintiffs” in this case.6 The “Settlement Agreement” was signed by Associate Attorney General Stanley Woodward the same day Plaintiffs filed their Notice; in fact, Plaintiffs’ filing of the Notice was expressly required by the “Settlement Agreement.”

The addendum granting the extraordinarily broad releases to the President and his family and businesses was signed by Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche the next day, May 19. Yet none of the parties filed either of these documents with the Court. In addition, shortly after announcing the “settlement,” the Acting Attorney General issued an order creating the “Anti-Weaponization Fund.” That order—which references the “Settlement Agreement” in this case—explicitly identifies the Judgment Fund statute, 31 U.S.C. § 1304, under which Congress has authorized appropriations for payments of settlements against the United States, and 28 U.S.C. § 2414, which authorizes payments of “final” judgments against the United States including compromise settlements and “imminent” claims, as the statutory bases for the creation of the AntiWeaponization Fund. Payments purportedly made pursuant to these statutes in the absence of a genuine case or controversy are not authorized. Movants submit that this “settlement” is a product of collusion and is itself a fraud on the
Court.

The initiatives  [see below] are part of an effort by Mr. Trump to honor himself while commemorating the nation’s 250th birthday.

(great line from today’s NY Times, referring to Trump’s glaring face on the new $250 bill, his signature on all paper money, more sycophants lapping from his capacious tush)

E.J. Carroll at the time of the sexual attack Trump lied about and defamed her over

Who you going to believe, an evil compulsive liar or an evil theocracy?

It’s a bad state of affairs when your own government is less trustworthy than a theocracy that mass murders protesters in the streets. Of course, our biggest, most important psychopaths would have no hesitation to do the same here, as soon as the time is right. Trump talks out of all eleven sides of his crusty ass, his puppets, and those sharing in his record-breaking corruption, rush to agree with every contradictory statement. To do otherwise would be career suicide and financially stupid. One of his recent ass-utterings was about a great, secret peace deal with Iran, immediately opening the Strait of Hormuz, almost done, much better than Obama’s, that traitorous critics were already criticizing even though it’s still only a concept of a plan, and even he doesn’t know what’s in it, but it’s almost a done deal and it’s going to be unbelievably fantastic, like nobody’s ever seen. And if not, more mass killing in Iran and elsewhere.

But Iran’s state media immediately posted that Trump’s claim that the strait would reopen as it was before the war was “not true,” adding that “it should be noted that American officials have acknowledged in multiple messages to Iran that Trump’s tweets are primarily for promotional purposes and media consumption within the United States, and they have recommended that no attention be paid to these statements.” source

Speaking of murderous compulsive liars — more slaughter on the high seas by Pirate Trump’s central casting toxic male asshole Pete Hegseth. They are pulling out all the stops to control the news to protect powerful white male pedophiles from exposure and accountability. (BREAKING: DOJ investigates Trump sexual assault and defamation victim E. Jean Carroll for ‘perjury’, banner headline in the NY Times — you want vindictive prosecution? In your fucking faces, cucks and bitches! [1]). In more Trump Epic Temper Tantrum news, President Hostis Humani Generis killed more fishermen:

Yesterday the U.S. military struck another small boat in the eastern Pacific, bringing the number of boats struck in the eastern Pacific and the Caribbean to fifty-eight. At least 194 individuals have been killed. The administration insists the boats are trafficking drugs but has produced no evidence for that accusation, and as Eric Schmitt of the New York Times reported today, “military experts say the strikes are illegal, extrajudicial killings.” source

War crimes, shmawr crimes. We’re not even at war with these fisherman, so how can these drone killings be war crimes, asshole? It’s just good, old-fashioned cold blooded, unaccountable murder from the air. Just the way our insane sadistic Commander-in-Chief likes it.

[1]

Call it vindictive and we’ll prosecute you, fuckface!

The “case” against her is for a supposedly knowingly false statement she made in a deposition about who was paying her legal fees. She had a contingency fee agreement with the lawyers who whipped Todd Blanche’s lying ass in court twice. Under a contingency arrangement, the lawyer pays costs leading up to a verdict and then takes a percentage of the award. Roberta Kaplan, Carroll’s lawyer, put all this in a letter when news broke that another vindictive prosecution was starting under the president who promised to be “your retribution” (if you are actually me, that is.).

This case is even weaker than the 86 47 Seashell/Kashyap yap yap (Patel) case against known Communist antifa leader James Comey (also a member of MS13 and the Southern Poverty Law Center and all other hate groups not aligned with the president). Still, it is also a slam dunk, according the state attorney (from a district far from Manhattan where the “perjury took place) handling the case. This Trump prosecutor recently had charges thrown out in his unrighteous prosecution against six protesters of ICE brutality in Operation Make Chicago Beg For Mercy, LOL. He was reprimanded by the judge, for his manipulation of the grand jury that eventually voted to indict in the “slam dunk” case against the Broadview Six, right before DOJ dismissed its case against all six defendants. I’ve heard rabidly loyal partisan hacks like this assclown prosecutor referred to as punk-ass bitches, though I’ll take the high road here and assume he just made a mistake, like the one he’s making by signing up to head this transparently baseless and clearly vindictive prosecution of Trump’s defamation and sexual assault victim, E. Jean Carroll. The shit fountain never stops.

Thousands of Trump ICE arrests dismissed

Kyle Cheney crunched the numbers, in a recent article in Politico, and found that federal judges ruled against ICE in 10,000 cases brought contesting the illegal tactics frequently employed by Trump’s federal goon squad. ICE has won about a thousand times, a 10-1 skew in favor of the law. The use of force, detentions, and conditions of detention, and denial of constitutionally guaranteed rights were deemed illegal in 90% of the cases.

The federal circuits are unaccountably deadlocked, in regard to ICE policies. There is a divide between The Rule of Law and MAGA/Project 2025 over the ICE question. That question is whether Trump’s masked goon squads need to follow the Fourth Amendment, be truthful to judges, present actual evidence or if their executive branch agency really has to honor the 9-0 Supreme Court affirmation of the writ of habeas corpus (the right to go in front of a judge to contest the reason you’re being held in prison). The Federalist Society Six will eventually have the final say about the criminally insane president’s right to unilaterally suspend Fourth Amendment and habeas corpus rights, and trial court judges in several districts have their hands tied in the meantime by Appellate decisions.

Criminal charges brought by Trump’s DOJ are routinely dismissed, by judges and juries, for lack of evidence of a crime. A number of his attempted vindictive indictments were rejected by grand juries. His DOJ has repeatedly committed frauds on the court and prosecutorial misconduct, including jury tampering. Top DOJ officials routinely go on the air to declare Trump’s enemies guilty before they are even indicted.

In a court of law, evidence is required to prove a claim, particularly when the State intends to deprive a person of their liberty or their life. Evidence that there is probable cause to believe a crime has been committed is required to get a judge to sign a search warrant. Evidence is the factual basis for any legal claim. Vexatious litigants like the petulant, pampered, professional victim in the White House hate this requirement of “evidence.” Evidence is as abhorrent to a compulsive liar as the truth itself. Judges require evidence (outside of the Federalist Six, of course), as does our justice system.

If you are Trump, you send lawyers to shop for a cooperative judge to give you a search warrant to seize 2020 ballots in a county that voted for the Democratic candidate, without evidence of any kind of crime — and well beyond the statute of limitations. You illegally appoint unqualified acting state’s attorneys to commit hanky panky to get indictments from grand juries, claiming to have slam dunk evidence they don’t have. Some are even forced to admit prosecutorial misconduct in court.

When it comes to Trump’s crimes, the same principle applies in reverse. A search warrant, legally obtained and based on evidence of criminal possession of documents and obstruction of the investigation (both of which turned out to be true) — a witch hunt by a weaponized DOJ engaging in “lawfare”! Trump is entitled to billions in compensation for being the target of a weaponized DOJ, IRS, the electorate, etc. So are all his wealthy “friends” and those violent loyalists willing to risk death for his lies, they are all entitled to millions.

Trump’s DOJ was recently found to have maliciously prosecuted Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a man they illegally rendered to the torture prison in El Salvador. To save face, after defying a federal judge’s order to turn the airplanes around, and claiming for months that they had no jurisdiction over El Salvador (the dictator of El Salvador acknowledged these US prisoners were living in cells rented by Trump), they prosecuted Abrego for a non-crime they had no evidence he committed. They did this after publicly vowing that IF he ever got back into the US because some traitor judge ruled he had to come back, they’d put him on criminal trial for felonies they falsely assured the public he was 100% guilty of. That case was dismissed with a rare finding of “malicious prosecution”. Trump’s psychotic lackies are now determined to deport Abrego Garcia to one of several African war zones the State Department classifies as highly dangerous. Abrego has agreed to be deported to Costa Rica, who has indicated they’d take him, but the DOJ is determined to send him to South Sudan, ASAP.

Trump’s Department of Justice has lost the “presumption of regularity” judges always gave government lawyers when they appeared before them. There is nothing regular about a DOJ routinely hiding evidence, lying to judges, making public statements about the guilt of the parties they haul into court. Never have we had an acting Deputy Attorney General tell his lawyers that they have to be ready to tell judges “fuck you” if they ask inconvenient questions that could impede the president’s illegal agenda. Erez Reuveni, a former DOJ lawyer, quoted criminal weasel Emil Bove, now federal appellate Judge Bove for life, to that effect. Reuveni was fired for admitting to the court that he had not been given any evidence to present to the court. In fact, he’d been instructed to defy the judge by one of the president’s most aggressive mongooses (no offense to mongooses, but look at this motherfucker:)

I keep thinking of one of the hundred or so cases Trump and the RNC brought (and lost) before the 2020 election to restrict voting by mail and the use of drop boxes (recall this was in the middle of the hpandemic, voters who believed Covid was highly contagious and deadly skewed overwhelmingly anti-Trump). This federal case, Trump 2020 v. Boockvar, against numerous election officials in Pennsylvania, caught my eye. The media was not reporting on it (it was one of many such frivolous lawsuits) so I followed it on PACER, the online database of federal cases. I was frustrated that the judge, a 43 year-old Trump appointee named J. Nicholas Ranjan, was not dismissing such an amateurishly filed case presented with zero evidence of its mostly incoherent claims. Week after week I followed this case. Judge Ranjan granted a motion to compel Trump and the RNC to submit evidence supporting its many bogus claims. Plaintiffs delivered a box full of screenshots and printouts from FOX, NewsMax, Breitbart, der Sturmer and other reliable legal authorities. I waited for Ranjan to dismiss the case. He didn’t, not for some time. But it was well worth the wait. The judge made a record that ensured he could not be reversed on appeal when he finally dismissed the case.

These two quotes are from the Kyle Cheney article linked above:

“This isn’t how things are supposed to work in America,” wrote U.S. District Judge Gary Brown, a Trump appointee based in New York, in the case of a man whose lawful status was revoked after ICE arrested him. “Unquestionably, the laws of human decency condemn such villainy.”

“Despite hundreds of similar rulings in this and other courts resoundingly in favor of the ICE-detainee petitioners, ICE continues to act contrary to law, to spend taxpayer money needlessly, and to waste the scarce resources of the judiciary,” said U.S. District Judge Harvey Bartle III, a George H.W. Bush appointee from Pennsylvania.

Senator Andy Kim was pepper sprayed today by masked agents outside of  infamous ICE detention center, GEO Group’s private Delaney Hall, in Newark, New Jersey. The detainees are on a hunger strike over conditions there that have been found to constitute torture — insufficient, expired food, unclean water, lack of medical care, abusive treatment. The other day the governor of New Jersey was prevented from entering to inspect the facility. This is the same hellhole that refused admission to the mayor of Newark, and then let him in before he was briefly and illegally arrested when he left, on orders, presumably, of the highly qualified Alina Habba.  The melee that followed led to assault charges (still pending) against US Congress member LaMonica McIver.  Apparently she assaulted an ICE agent’s elbow with her eye and her stomach during a chaotic shoving match between elected officials and masked goons licensed to kill and gas with impunity. Evidence, I suppose, will eventually be presented in the case against her. I suspect it will be similar to the suspect evidence judges have rejected in many other fraudulent Trump DOJ vindictive prosecutions.

As for Trump’s Stephen Miller-led deportation Gestapo, in 2018, under Trump, there were six detainee deaths in ICE custody. In the year and a half the malevolent creature has been back in power: 61 acknowledged deaths in ICE custody (dying detainees are often rushed to hospitals to take their deaths off the books of ICE, but 61 deaths in detention in 2025 and the first half of 2026 are confirmed on ICE’s own website..

Fuck these fuckin putos.

THIS IS AN ACTUAL PHOTOGRAPH — no Photoshop, no AI, NO COVFEFE!!!

Lookin’ good, boys

In fairness to the very busy, loving president — he had another sketchy assassination attempt scheduled and couldn’t be at the wedding or the story would have fallen apart.

Here’s Lyin’ Ted Cruz, as always, preparing for his afterlife sucking cocks in hell — in that memorable phrase from The Exorcist. Recall that Lyin’ Ted was one of the chief public mouthpieces of the Stop the Steal myth in the days leading up to January 6th insurrection/Day of Love — and then later put his foot in his mouth, in front of Tucker Carlson by referring to the meek, patriotic tourist visit as a riot. As for his snarling answer below, Hermann Goring had nothing on Lyin’ Ted:

Nazis Only meeting — Todd Blanche and GOP Senators meet at Republicans Only meeting on Capitol Hill

No Democrats, or girls, were allowed when the Acting AG went to get GOP support for the boss’s illegal kampfbund fund.  These fascists are not even trying to hide their nefarious dealings as they set up an illegal taxpayer funded slush fund to enrich criminal far-right insurrectionists as payment for their future violent, insurrectionist services.  

Nothing to see here, when the Acting AG goes to meet with Republican senators only, because partisan (if Republican) use of the government  for strictly partisan purposes has been repeatedly blessed by the six righteous pontiffs on the Supreme Court. January Sixth fist pumper/sprinter to saftey Josh Hawley, “Greenbay Sweep” quarterback Lyin’ Ted, loyal lapdog Lindsey “A girl gets to change her mind!” Graham, Coach Tooberville, every Senator who defended the J6 rioters as patriots, or worked with Bannon and fellow-strategists in the Willard Hotel War Room directly on January 6th — all eligible for big bucks from the illegal slush fund!  

With all that, it reportedly went badly for Blanche.

Although, as everyone in MAGA knows — it’s totally illegal for the FBI to conduct an investigation into a riot to stop the certification of a national election, particularly for the phone records of the conspirators in Congress, the victims of which each deserve at least a million dollars.   Just because you were convicted of violently attacking police doesn’t mean you don’t deserve a million bucks for the hell they put you through afterwards. It’s just like the feds getting a so-called subpoena to raid your house to get evidence of a crime, evidence you strongly denied having, finding the evidence you lied about not having, and then maliciously prosecuting you!   Submit your claim today!

Recall three things about the bogus case this unrelated “settlement agreement” supposedly came from:

1] the lawsuit was time-barred as well beyond the statute of limitations for bringing it [should have been dismissed on that basis, would have been, if Trump’s criminal defense team DOJ wasn’t involved]

2] the case was not a legally justiciable “case or controversy” since Trump, the plaintiff, was also in charge of the IRS, the defendant/respondent.  The criminally insane stable genius plaintiff/defendant was pretending to “settle” with himself, with $10,000,000,000 of taxpayer money as the hostage.

3] This kind of case, if legitimate, has a settlement limit of $1,000 according to the law.

Former White House lawyer Ty Cobb gives the legal skinny on the $1,776B criminal conspiracy Republicans are now very squeamish about (and rightfully so).    Again, the legal incoherence of the “settlement” is very clear: the case was filed AFTER the statute of limitations expired, it was dismissed by the judge because there was no case or controversy (Trump controlled both sides of the fake lawsuit) and statutory damages in these cases are limited to $1,000.   Under a noncriminal DOJ, the case would have been immediately dismissed.  In withdrawing it himself, with Blanche’s generous deal for his family and their tax avoidance liabilities, the stable genius thought he was winning.  Like he won the war in Iran, obliterating them twice, perhaps more times.  Like he won in 2020, by an overwhelming majority, and in 2024, the 200 bomb threats called into strategically located Democratic precincts by Putin had nothing to do with it.  Like he was totally exonerated at the end of every witch hunt.  Like he never even met any of the cute young girls fucking Epstein stole from Mar-a-Lago.

And the indignantly befuddled dickhead pictured above never even met Ghislaine Maxwell and knew nothing about her being transferred, days after a two day, nine hour interview with Blanche that was totally routine for sex criminals,  to a much less secure prison for female white collar criminals.   

Let us all take action to ensure there are not 1,000,000 paid Klansmen, in hoods, preemptive presidential pardons in hand, surrounding every non-MAGA polling place in November so that our 2027 government can conduct the investigations, impeachments and criminal proceedings that are necessary to halt this avalanche of fascism here in the good old USA.
