News from all over

 An apology:  The Buttermilk Sky Organization was inaccurate in describing US Attorney Jeanine Pirro's success rate in carrying out her role in the illegal and unnecessary military occupation of Washington, DC.  We gave her record of indictments as 0-3 when it should have been 0-6.

The grand jury "elites" handed her another loss today in refusing to agree that Nathalie Rose Jones of Indiana threatened Trump's life when she called him a "Nazi" and a "terrorist" in an interview with the FBI.  Before that there were Sean "Sandwich" Dunn and Alvin Summers, accused of assaulting a federal officer.  And three separate attempts to indict Sidney Lori Reid, who scuffled with an FBI agent.  Reid's charges were downgraded to a misdemeanor.  Talking trash about The Leader as Jones did is technically still protected free speech, not unlike posting a depiction of President Biden bound and gagged in the back of a truck.  This administration is all about free speech, mostly from Charlie Kirk or Jesse Watters.

Congratulations to Chicago on being named "the worst and most dangerous city in the World, by far."  From the random capitalization you will already have guessed who did the naming.  In a few hours he is expected to announce the military occupation of the Second City, despite the fact that Memphis, in baboon's-ass-red Tennessee, has the highest murder rate in the country.  Chicago is not even in the top five.  Neither is New York.

The International Association of Genocide Scholars has issued a resolution:  "Israel's policies and actions in Gaza meet the legal definition of genocide."  They acknowledge that the terrorist attack of October 7, 2023, "constitutes international crimes."  The Israeli Foreign Minister calls the resolution "disgraceful" because Jews were the original victims of genocide and therefore can never be guilty of it, which sounds a little desperate, not to mention historically inaccurate.  Israel has a chance to rebut the verdict when the Global Sumud Flotilla arrives from Barcelona in two weeks.

Kamala Harris is about to embark on a tour to promote her book 107 Days, to be published September 23.  Joe Biden extended her Secret Service protection for eighteen months instead of the traditional six, but "Second Amendment solution" Trump put a stop to that.  Now the California Highway Patrol will take charge of her security by order of our real daddy, Gavin Newsom.  

For the regularly scheduled stroke sessions known as Cabinet meetings, Trump has reportedly installed new TV-quality lights in the Cabinet Room to make him look better.  He should probably hire a professional makeup artist like Hegseth's, because it isn't working.  Maybe less light?

Satan is getting a workout in the wake of the Minneapolis school shooting.  Tony Perkins thought the "faithful" needed encouragement from him (as well as every politician in the pay of the gun industry) to keep on praying despite "the mockery of the anti-faith crowd" and "thwart the plans of the enemy -- Satan."  Franklin Graham went farther, blaming Satan for the shooting along with "socialist left" Mayor Jacob Frey, who suggested that post-massacre thoughts and prayers were useless.  Two of these fellows you must know and own; this thing of darkness!  Acknowledge mine.  Yes, no one brings the crazy like a Georgia MAGA:  On CNN Earl "Cruddy" Carter defended Roadkill Bob for firing the head of the CDC, claiming the agency caused distrust by the Covid vaccine itself.  Apparently Dr. Demetre Daskalakis, who led the CDC from 2020 to 2025, is "a BDSM Satan worshiper" (i.e., gay).  Cruddy wants to be a senator.  We're all so proud of him in the First District.  

Woody Allen contributed a supposedly humorous letter to the Jeffrey Epstein birthday book, so maybe it's not surprising that he expressed interest in casting Trump in his next film.   (He played himself in the 1998 Celebrity, which I somehow missed.)  "He was very polite, hit his mark, did everything correctly and had a real flair for show business," Allen told Bill Maher, who didn't bring up the letter.  I imagine Trump envies Allen for actually marrying his (sort of) daughter.

Rudolph Giuliani was riding in a car in New Hampshire when it was rear-ended by another car.  He was hospitalized overnight with minor injuries.  Rumors immediately spread of a dastardly left-wing assassination attempt, including a photo from a crash that occurred a year ago in San Diego.  Based on these facts, Trump decided his disbarred, unsuccessful, flatulent and frequently drunk ex-lawyer deserved the Limbaugh-debased Medal of Freedom.

Everyone needs a cause.  New York City councilman Frank Morano (R-SI) is demanding that Netflix bring back its DVD-by-mail service, discontinued two years ago.  He says they "filled a vital gap for seniors and technophobes, film lovers and collectors, and consumers with limited broadband access."  If he succeeds, maybe he can get Blockbuster to re-open its stores.  I still have a VCR...

Again!  Kim Jong-un arrived in Beijing for a kick-ass military parade to mark the 80th anniversary of the end of World War II with Xi Jinping and Vladimir Putin, and Trump was not invited.  Don't they know the USA won that war?  Very very unfair!  Many tariffs!

Do not play "ding-dong ditch" anywhere in this country, and especially not in Texas.  A group of children were engaged in ringing doorbells and running away when an eleven-year-old in Houston was shot and killed by the homeowner.  Gonzalo Leon, Jr., was charged with murder after shooting Julian Guzman.  I'll be very surprised if Texas doesn't have one of those "stand your ground" laws left over from the OK Corral days.
