"Trump-a-palooza" Search Redirects To Epstein Files

 

ICYMI, an exemplary and fitting piece of trolling (our emphasis):

A website that tops search results for the Republican Party's first midterm convention sends visitors to the Justice Department's files on sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

The redirect was first reported Friday by journalist Jake Lahut, who wrote in his newsletter, Straight from the Hut, that the top Google result for the Sept. 9-10 gathering in Dallas kept sending users to the Epstein page.  [snip]

And although the RNC convention website did not appear on the first page of Google's results, the troll domain was the very first result, presenting itself as the genuine article and carrying the title "RNC Midterm Convention | Dallas, TX Sept 9-10."

Visitors who click through reach a Justice Department page headed "Epstein Library," which asks whether they are 18 or older before showing anything else. The page carries a notice that officials redacted personal information about victims, the Western Journal reported.  [snip]

The search-result trouble arrives days before a convention that Republican National Committee Chairman Joe Gruters has branded "Trump-a-palooza," according to the Washington Examiner.

A Politico survey of more than 70 Republican candidates and members found that most either do not plan to attend [Ed.: Ouch!] or remain undecided, with dozens more declining to say. Forty-five cited prior commitments such as fundraisers, weddings and college tours. Reps. Zach Nunn (R-IA), Nick LaLota (R-NY) and Tom Barrett (R-MI) have said they will not attend, Politico reported.  [snip]

House members are being asked to pay at least $25,000 to attend [Ed.:  Ouch, again!] , an amount that covers two tickets and a single hotel room, according to a registration guide obtained by Politico.

As for those pesky Epstein-Trump files?

About 3.5 million pages of Epstein records released by the Justice Department will be printed and displayed in binders from Sept. 8 to 12 at a Dallas pop-up, The Dallas Morning News reported. Organizers call it The Donald J. Trump and Jeffrey Epstein Memorial Reading Room.

A taco truck converted into a bookmobile and wrapped in a photograph of Trump and Epstein together will circle the city on Sept. 10, the convention's second day, carrying a micro-printed set of the same documents, according to the newspaper...

Here's that truck:

The Malignant Fascist and his party/cult will never outrun the stench or wash out the stain of their intimate connection with, and coverup of, the largest child sex trafficking ring in history.

Trump Is "Hoover-maxxing" The Mid-Terms

 



The Very Stable Genius Unstable Moron Malignant Fascist must be so confident that his Republican Supreme Court, "his generals," paramilitary thugs, and security forces can keep his fascist regime afloat that he's "Hoover-maxxing" the mid-term elections (referring, of course, to the poster boy for political drubbings, Herbert Hoover).  That involves  maybe giving him a little too much credit for critical thinking.  The other school of thought is, well, he's a sociopathic, narcissistic moron.  

G. Elliott Morris looks at the disconnect between the MF's priorities and what voters want, and concludes the MF's "doing everything you’d expect from someone who wants to lose an election:"

In the past two weeks, several high-profile events have shown voters that President Donald Trump is not focused on their top issues — inflation, jobs, and elections/democracy. On August 31, 2026, Trump won the Supreme Court’s permission (for now) to keep building his 400-600 million-dollar ballroom. In July, he announced new tariffs on Canada, and, on Aug. 27, ordered Lake Ontario be renamed “Lake America.” And this week he told Americans in communities wary of data centers to “Let Data Reign,” while pushing new development of AI data centers and gas power plants onto federal land.

This is not what voters want the president to be focused on. And this mismatch in priorities has been showing up in the polls for months.  [snip]

Where else to begin but by noting the absolutely insane politics of building a giant marble ballroom with money from taxpayers and your billionaire friends while people are struggling to put food on the table. If any other president had tried this — in an election year, no less — he would have been sidelined by his own party’s congressional leaders the next day.

Back in May, our Strength In Numbers/Verasight poll found that 68% of voters opposed spending taxpayer money to build Trump’s ballroom. This included a plurality of Republicans, at 44% opposed to 42% in support of funding construction.

And our August poll shows the cost that focusing on projects like this has had for Americans’ evaluation of the president. Nearly 60% of adults now name prices/inflation as one of their top-three issues facing the country today, 20 points higher than the second issue “jobs and the economy.” And the president’s net approval on prices is at an all-time low, and approaching a net rating of -50.


Generally, the more important voters say an issue is right now, the more voters dislike how the president is handling it. The issues Trump and Republicans are strongest on, border security and crime, are rated as the most important problem by the fewest voters.  [snip]

... [Y]ou do not need a political science research paper to understand that a president spending all his time on things voters don’t care about — indeed, spending a lot of time and energy on policies that exacerbate their top problems — would be bad. If you're hungry, and your parents don’t feed you, you understandably get upset at your parents.

It is thus not surprising (but still worth emphasizing) that Trump has lost support not only with the average American, but also his own voters, because he has been focused on the wrong issues. An August Navigator Research poll found 20% of 2024 Trump voters now regret their vote, with the war with Iran (45%) and prices (43%) at the top of the list of reasons and healthcare cuts close behind (38%). More than a third of Trump vote regretters said they changed their mind on him because the president was “focusing on the wrong priorities like the White House ballroom.”...

The MF has said he wants his voters to "pretend I'm on the ballot."  We only wish he was literally on the ballot, but Democrats should be happy to tie their Republican opponents to the MF as tightly as possible anyway, regardless of how much they try to weasel away from their cult leader.  So, as has been said before, "Please proceed."

Our belief is that the bigger the blue wave this November in every State, the harder it will be for the MF and his rotted out party/ cult to cry "rigged election!", not that they won't anyway.  But, going against the electoral mandate of tens of millions of Americans across blue states, red states, and purple states will trigger an existential crisis that will make January 6 pale in comparison.  Except this time, it won't be MAGAts storming the Capitol.

More Corrupt Behavior From Ken Paxton

 



ProPublica is reporting that corrupt MAGAt Republican candidate for the Senate in Texas Ken Paxton seems to have violated Federal Ethics Law in his financial disclosures:

"Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton appears to have violated federal ethics law in significant ways when filing recent disclosures of his assets and liabilities, creating confusion about his net worth and holdings, a review by ProPublica and The Texas Tribune found.

Among them: Paxton, the Republican nominee for U.S. Senate, reported owning seven homes but said he earned no income from any. Yet all but one was listed for rent during the reporting periods, and some current residents and neighbors at those addresses confirmed that the properties were rented, the news organizations found. Receiving income and not reporting it is a violation of federal disclosure law, three ethics experts said. 

Additionally, Paxton did not disclose mortgages for three condos at a Utah golf resort that federal law requires him to list as liabilities if they are not personal residences

He also valued his stake in a vacant plot of Texas land at up to $50,000 on last year’s filing, but his business partner told the newsrooms Paxton’s share for years has been worth about $1 million. Federal financial disclosure law requires property to be listed at fair market value." (our emphasis)

Add this to the list of illegal and unethical things Paxton has done, for which he was indicted (state securities fraud) and impeached by his fellow Republican state lawmakers.  He even stole a $1,000 pen from a security checkpoint. 

Neo-Nazi loon Elon Musk is pouring money into Paxton's campaign against Dem star James Talarico.  Help level the playing field by supporting the Talarico campaign.

Ecuador -- Jungle And Tall Volcanoes

 

Harmen Hoek takes us on a silent hike through jungles and up the tallest volcanoes in Ecuador.  He previews:

In November 2025, I traveled to Ecuador to climb the three tallest volcanoes in the country together with Mountain Beat Adventures - Cayambe, Cotopaxi, and Chimborazo. Cayambe is the highest point on the equator, while Chimborazo is the point on Earth furthest from the planet’s center. After the climbs, I continued exploring Ecuador to experience more of the country’s incredible variety. From the crater lake of Laguna Quilotoa and the waterfalls of Baños, to climbing Tungurahua by myself and visiting the Amazon jungle near Tena and the Rio Napo. This film combines all of those experiences into one journey through some of the most beautiful and diverse landscapes Ecuador has to offer. 

Stunning scenery as usual, with the great variety of Ecuador's landscapes on display (paid promotions included).

QOTD -- "Small Potatoes"

 

“A lot of people don’t call it a war.  I call it a military conflict because it’s small potatoes for us. It’s not a big thing.  We did Venezuela and we did this. In Venezuela we lost nobody.  In this we lost 18 people and in Vietnam we lost 100,000 [Ed. - no, 58,148, Cadet Bone Spurs] people and in other conflicts you lost tens of thousands of people.”  -- the Malignant Fascist, speaking to reporters in the Oval Office today. Tell that to the families of the 18 servicemembers killed, and the approximately 794 wounded in the "small potatoes" war with Iran to date, you narcissisic sociopath

Is it also "small potatoes" that you've driven the price of oil to record levels, spiked inflation, allowed our country to suffer humiliation at the hands of Iran, alienated our allies and altered the balance of power in the Middle East, degraded our weapons stockpile, and caused servicemenbers to endure dangerously long tours of duty -- all to pursue your insane war of choice with no strategy or exit plan?

Epic Musk Documentary Sums Up His Evil

 


Oscar-winning documentarian Alex Gibney is set to release his epic documentary on one of the most deluded  and dangerous men alive, South Afrikaner white supremacist and anti-semite Elon "Leon" Musk.  It's taken years to film and assemble, and will preview at the Venice Film Festival next Tuesday, September 8.  Below is an excerpt from The Hollywood Reporter's Steven Zeitchik's comprehensive article about the film.  Keep in mind as you read it that Musk is spending at least $100 million to boost Republican candidates this fall, and ask yourself why the broken media isn't questioning them about receiving his money:

"Gibney has crafted a movie that, while not new in its specifics, is often damning in its totality, standing apart from anything the media entertainment complex has recently turned out — a portrait of power with the cinematic scope of All the King’s Men and the potential social impact of The Pentagon Papers. (“It’s rare these days to see a complete story instead of the fragments we’re used to,” says Anonymous Content’s Nick Shumaker, a producer on the film.) Some will surely find Musk overly negative and conspiratorial. Yet nearly every time the film seems like it might tip into paranoid fantasy, Gibney unearths a new fact or asks a new commonsense question to steady us back.

Gibney spends the first half of the film coming at Musk for various alleged sins, including stealing credit from original Tesla founder Martin Eberhard; bullying a woman who birthed his child to sign an NDA; pumping his stocks with shaky talk of Mars exploration and full self-driving cars (the latter of which Gibney also alleges are responsible for more than 60 deaths); and turning a light on the monkeys experimented on at Neuralink who advocacy groups say suffered needlessly. Not nearly as adept at all the substantive tasks of running a company as he claims, Elon Musk, Gibney argues, excels mainly at selling tall tales.

Even these multiple levels of alleged villainy, however, seem narrow compared to what the director argues in the second half is the real game: world domination. In Gibney’s telling, to witness Musk convert his satellite internet system Starlink into an unelected policymaker given its crucial role in Ukraine and other war-torn places; to see NASA rely so heavily on SpaceX to perpetuate its space program; to watch Musk seemingly use Twitter to garner business favors from world leaders like Modi and Milei; to look with growing dread as the data collected by DOGE potentially becomes a sleeper cell for campaign research and political retaliation — to observe all of this is to gaze upon a man interested not only in wealth and status but in an oligarchal sway that transcends elections’ fickle seasons. Donald Trump may have spent six years bringing the branches of government to heel. But in Gibney’s accounting Musk is in the process of pulling off something far more menacing: rendering government obsolete altogether." (our emphasis)

Musk's DOGE catastrophe terminated USAID programs to provide food and medicine primarily to African women and children, resulting in what The Lancet estimates are hundreds of thousands of deaths and rising. That's not to mention the turmoil he created within the Federal Government as he slashed jobs without much more than the advice of 20 somethings who were used to software coding and little more. It's horrifying what damage this monster has done and is further capable of. 

It's important to read Zeitchik's entire, fascinating article, and then see the film when it arrives on screens and streaming. Then you'll know fully what our democracy is up against.

Diesel Fuel Prices Set Record High

 



The average price for a gallon of diesel fuel has reached a record high of $5.85, as the nation's truckers and farmers struggle with high energy costs weeks before the mid-term elections. From the Associated Press:

"Diesel hit a new record price in the U.S. on Friday, soaring to an average of $5.85 a gallon for the first time ever as the six-month war with Iran disrupts the world’s flow of fuel.

Because diesel is used for many freight and delivery networks, higher diesel prices mean higher transportation costs for a long list of everyday goods. More expensive fuel is increasing bills for businesses across sectors — some of which have already passed off costs to consumers in the form of added fees on online orders and packages in the mail. And shoppers may see more and more sticker shock trickle into store shelves.

The increases could have political implications, with economic issues likely to be top of mind for many voters in November’s midterm elections." (our emphasis)

When added to the higher costs of goods due to the mentally ill Malignant Fascist's tariffs, his sabotage of the Affordable Care Act and Medicaid, working families will be struggling to keep afloat. Dems have got to emphasize that the pain is coming from the MF and his spineless cult in Congress, and if they expect to have any relief, they need to send the cultists home.
