Hayden Panettiere—Claire Bennet, the unkillable cheerleader from Heroes, Juliette Barnes from Nashville, Kirby from Scream—found unresponsive in a Greenville, South Carolina apartment Sunday afternoon. Age 36. She'd been open about the long war with alcohol, opioids, postpartum depression, the "happy pills" that started it all as a teenager.

Prediction markets indicate Sandy Cortez has passed Marco Rubio, with a 13% chance of winning the Presidency in 2028. The Squad's original "it girl," she's become the ultimate barometer in the heat of our collective late-Summer boredom.

Karoline Leavitt is leaving as WH Press Secretary. She'll still be in Trump's orbit as an advisor, but the daily death matches w/ the "Free Press" are over. Elsewhere, a Federal judge just ordered HUD to keep pouring hundreds of millions of taxpayer $ down the homeless rathole known as the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority. Because when an agency has a decade-long rap sheet of fraud, conflict-of-interest scandals, and zero results, the only logical move is… more money!

Joe Biden has Stage 4 prostate cancer. Trump has no sympathy. No pity parties. No soft landings.

COVID didn't just lock us down—it gave the Democratic Socialists of America a pure, uncut hit of the lefty paradise they'd been fantasizing about for years. Control. Dependence. Centralized power. And they never came down from the high. Sandy Cortez basically said as much over the weekend. The founding fathers saws these freaks coming a mile away. Me? I'm Ready for Rain. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NWD-x3GIUFA

The usual parade of double talking talking heads on the Sunday shows features the likes of Sandy Cortez, who blames the pandemic for all the "defund-the-police" nonsense spouted by backtracking DSA candidates.

Fauci's wife gives the finger to a NY Post photographer, apparently not pleased Rand Paul's referral is already at the DoJ. Elsewhere, more crumbling infrastructure in L.A, as water main breaks erupt in multiple locations.

Rand Paul's committee votes to refer Tony Fauci to the DoJ. Abdul El Sayed is the new Sandy Cortez. Iran is still on hold. DSA candidate Francesca Hong has an epiphany and suddenly likes Thanksgiving.

The Democrat Party just lurched harder left as progressive outsider Dr. Abdul El-Sayed narrowly crushed establishment favorite Rep. Haley Stevens in the Michigan Senate primary. Is Thanksgiving hater, and Wisconsin gubernatorial wannabe Francesca Hong next? Elsewhere Perez Hilton drops a very public cry for help. His "team" requests privacy, the internet, of course has other ideas.

Trump tells Iran- last chance before full decapitation, Aaron Rodgers calls Tony Fauci a coward, as Rand Paul advances his contempt resolution with a vote scheduled for Thursday. Meanwhile the People's Republic of NYC will require a photo ID to buy meat, the same people who howl it's racist to require an ID to vote.

Health & Human Services Secretary RFKJr. and CNN's Dana Bash were locked in a studio yesterday tossing around the rotting political football that is/was COVID.

Ceuta, Spain gets the Morrocan bum rush yesterday and today, Trump warns we're next if the midterms go the wrong way. And while we're talking about Fauci, let's be honest about COVID. It is a real virus, but it got hyped, weaponized, and used by the same crowd that wants the gates wide open, the rules suspended, and the demographics rewritten. Fear as policy. Crisis as opportunity. Same playbook, different tool.

The Pageant is complete. The Theatre is closed. Fauci walks. Nobody talks. The anatomy of a scandal handled Washington D.C. style: light the stage, sell the fear, print the money, bury the receipts, and when the music stops… the dance floor is empty.

Everyone's favorite COVID Czar joins the Capitol Hill circus, pleads the Fifth 100+ times, and gets a well deserved spanking. Rand Paul threatens contempt—possibly heading to the DOJ. Reality Check: Highly unlikely anyone will be held accountable.

Tony Fauci bobbleheads are hitting the clearance rack harder than a lab leak denial — deep discounts all around as the 85-year-old former NIAID boss prepares to sit under the hot lights of Congress tomorrow. Rand Paul has been screaming from the rafters for years, subpoena in hand, diary pages flying, gain-of-function questions loaded… and still the real outrage remains: after the lockdowns, the mandates, the origins fog, the shifting stories, and the body count, almost nobody is likely to be held accountable for the whole COVID caper. Tony Fauci bobbleheads are selling at a deep discount as he prepares to testify in front of Congress tomorrow. The real outage is that even with Rand Paul screaming from the rafters, no one will likely be held accountable for the COVID caper.

L.A. homeless numbers climb again after billions vanish into the void. Some "patriot" leaks WH meeting notes: we're basically out of ammo in the Mideast. Fauci's diary drops: he privately clocked COVID's kill rate at a mild 0.2-0.3%… then jacked it sky-high for Congress.

Elon Musk Turns the Tables on Zanny Minton Beddoes, Comfortably Numb Editor of the London-Based Economist, Picture it: the velvet-gloved queen of the globalist dinner-party set flies into Texas, sits down at the Gigafactory with the man who actually builds the future… and tries to lecture him like she's still grading PPE papers at Oxford. Hilarity ensues.

We quote the late, great writer P.J. O'Rourke: The 3 Branches of Government are, Money, Power & Bullshit.

On Capitol Hill, Pete Hegseth steps up to the mic for supplemental funding testimony and immediately brings the heat. Elsewhere, in the clown car politics dept, CA wannabe governor, Xavier Becerra declares that the only authentic tacos come from unregulated random dudes on the street — no permits, no rules, just vibes & sketchy carts.

Trump warns Houthis- try to choke the Red Sea and America will "take care of business." Meanwhile during a police chase thru Lynwood, CA, guy being "chased" stopped for gas. He later escaped on foot. Evil Joe connects the dots between global power plays & peak LA stupidity in one unfiltered rant.

Trump is moving pieces on the global board. He handing the World Cup to Spain while Iran wheezes through its final death rattle. We break down exactly why the regime in Tehran is finished, why Spain got the golden ticket, and why strength is the only language that actually works.

Iran's pounding, for the moment is temporarily on the back burner, so today's political firestorm is over the President's speech on election security last night. What's real and what's fake? We break it down.

Trump addresses the Nation tonight. Will he allege the CIA & Intelligence "community" suppressed election interference in 2020? Stay tuned.

They're not just swatting judges anymore—they're ordering pizza to their houses using the name of a judge's son who got gunned down at his mom's front door in 2020. And now Amy Coney Barrett's family is catching slices too. Bridge & Tunnel week is coming, Iran's on line 1 again saying 'please daddy Trump make deal,' but we've heard it all before. This time the crust is extra crispy w/ intimidation.

Senator Josh Hawley says we should at least look into it. Meanwhile the late Senator's sister, Darline has been appointed to serve out his term.

The US has always had the Big Stick. We've just been waiting for a cowboy to pick it up. Trump this morning declares we are the Guardian Angel of the Strait of Hormuz. We'll charge a 20% cargo fee for safe passage. Meanwhile in the wake of Lindsey Graham's sudden passing, Adam Schiff wastes zero seconds trotting out another War Powers Resolution to kneecap the whole operation.

Tucker Carlson's gone full dystopian homeboy painting A.I. as a silicone serpent slithering into our lives sucking up all the water, electricity & jobs. Meanwhile former olympian, David Hearn pleads not guilty to TDS at the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool. He's looking at 10 years.

Trump doubles down on strikes, the end game-economic strangulation. Kharg Island, the Crown Jewel of Iran's oil industry is in the crosshairs.

Trump holds a press conference at the NATO meeting this AM. While giving feckless members the side eye, Iran's back on the front burner hotter than a Strait of Hormuz tanker fire. The President walks a fine line between Herbert Hoover & Teddy Roosevelt.

Trump touches down in Ankara like he owns the place. Erdogan rolls out the red carpet thicker than a Turkish rug, and the rest of NATO gets front-row seats to the ultimate bromance sequel. Deals, dinners, (Greenland is on the menu, lol) and enough shade to power a solar farm. Hilarity? Guaranteed. Trump is in Turkey at a NATO meeting. Hilarity ensues.

While the fireworks are still smoking ignorant people get bored. The Declaration didn't promise utopia—it armed free people with the ultimate cheat code against tyranny. 250 years in, some are still trying to cancel the source code. Others are reloading it.

On the eve of America's 250th birthday, we're diving deep into why the Declaration of Independence remains one of the most explosive, influential, and revolutionary pieces of parchment ever written — a document that didn't just birth a nation, it lit the fuse for global freedom movements that reshaped the world.

Buckle up, hairless apes- America's throwing a birthday bash for its bad-ass past while the Left doubles down on importing the Third World. As Trump heads to the Teddy Roosevelt Presidential Library, one side celebrates American exceptionalism, while victorious DSA candidates in Colorado wave red flags & cheer on open borders.

SCOTUS rules that babies born to those illegally in the U.S. are citizens under the 14th Amendment. MENSA reject Ketanji Brown Jackson argues it's like stealing a wallet in Japan.

Like a slumlord papering over the cracks in a roach infested rent controlled apartment, NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani pulled a Hakeem with a smile and a pivot, pretending the 'new' Democratic Socialism isn't the same old cancer that's been metastasizing since Bernie and AOC turned the Dems into a grievance factory.

As we roll into the final weekend before America's 250th B-day bash, we examine the political tug of war over the President's efforts to spiff up the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool, which is becoming an apt metaphor for the D.C. swamp itself. What would the Founding Geezers think?

The ground is literally shaking in Venezuela while the political fault lines in America crack wide open. Twin monsters hit South America, socialist crazies sweep NYC primaries, the socialist wing just ate Hakeem's lunch, and this AM SCOTUS slapped down (or neutered) Trump's TPS rollback.

Socialist Earthquake in last night's NYC primary as 3 DSA congressional candidates defeat business-as-usual democrats. Some, like Steven A Smith think this bodes well for the midterms, others caution... be careful what you wish for! Somewhere, the ghost of H.L. Mencken is pouring a stiff drink & lighting a cigar.

Now that Musk and Ro Khanna have swatted the hornets nest that is USAID, we learn some of that money ended up at the Wuhan Institute! Non profit money laundering is a thing in CA, too with Gavin and his wife taking full advantage of state laws which allow them to play fast & loose.

Elon Musk just signaled lawsuit inbound on Rep. Ro Khanna (CA) after he dropped a nuclear-level exaggeration: claiming 4.5 million kids have been "sentenced to death" by DOGE's defunding of USAID. Elsewhere, after a rocky weekend, the Iranian talks continue but the MOU is like an iceberg, there's a lot more going on just underneath the surface.

The Iran deal survives its first major hiccup after yet another overnight Israel-Hezbollah skirmish. Then the man who helped build a $3-trillion A.I. empire finally explains why he's worn the exact same black leather jacket, black shirt, and black pants for decades. Decision fatigue? Genius? Or just rich-guy laziness?

Adam Schiff joins the ranks of Lefties lining up to lust after Elon's cash, I'd like to point out that if we harvested 1 kidney from the total number of politicians in the U.S. we could give one to every person currently on the wait list.

Trump holds court at the G-7. We break down the Memorandum of Understanding w/ Iran and explain what it means. Trump- if they get cute we'll drop more bombs on their heads, then drops a metaphorical one, "They laughed at Obama," they said, "He's a stupid son of a bitch."

Price of oil way down, as Trump announces he's going to read the Iran deal out loud during a press conference, to force the "journalists" in the media to accurately cover it. Meanwhile, whistleblowers come forward & allege that Gavin & his wife, Jennifer are playing fast & loose with government $. He's crying he's on Trump's hit list. DoJ investigates.

The Stock Market explodes as The Iran deal drops this Friday. Obama's response: low-key bitter. Trump hosts UFC 250 on the South Lawn at the WH. Smug lefties like David Brooks at PBS hate it- calling it evidence of cultural decline. Men wearing dresses reading to kids and competing in women's sports was fine, though. Pick a lane.

SpaceX just dropped the biggest IPO in history — a record-shattering $75 billion monster that could push Elon Musk into official trillionaire territory. Rockets are flying, the valuation is insane, and right on cue a conga line of lefty cash vampires has formed up, hips swinging, nostrils flaring, ready to tax, regulate, steal every last dollar of that new wealth. Meanwhile, in L.A. they're still counting ballots ten days after the "election." R u READY FOR RAIN? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NWD-x3GIUFA

Trump just opened a massive can of whoop ass on Iran — and he's not done. He's going FULL BANCHI & taking Kharg Island, Iran's golden oil-export goose in the Persian Gulf. The man with the Big Stick- finally swinging hard. Meanwhile… SpaceX goes PUBLIC tomorrow in what's shaping up to be the largest IPO in history. Rocket fuel for the markets or the ultimate hype cycle? Joe's got the investor take you actually need: Keep your powder dry. Let the big dogs eat first. Don't be the retail chump chasing the opening pop.

Jimmy Kimmel just threw a parade on Spencer Pratt's political corpse because LA gets to stay exactly the same level of screwed… and Skid Row voters got paid to make sure of it. Meanwhile, the Iran ceasefire might already be toast. Stay tuned. R u Ready for Rain yet? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NWD-x3GIUFA

Steve Hilton just crashed the general election for California governor. The candidate w/ zero tolerance for Sacramento's clown show just survived the top-two jungle primary bloodbath. Meanwhile in L.A.: Homeless people used as human ballot-signing machines. Signature gatherers paying Skid Row residents $2–$3 (plus cigs and phone cards) to register to vote and sign petitions. Meanwhile- DOJ Catches the SPLC Red-Handed Playing Dress-Up With Nazis" Same energy: treat desperate people like props, harvest the signatures, cash the checks, and pretend it's "democracy."

Ignorance meets lows standards! Nithya Raman surged past Spencer Pratt over the weekend, exploding accusations of election fraud in California. Sloppy bureaucracy? Straight-up theft in broad daylight? Or.... Moronic electorate? Meanwhile, Evil Trump walks out of his Meet the Press interview after Kristen Welker demands "evidence" on the CA rigging claims. Trump pulls a Pacino, "This whole court is out of order." Performative outrage? Or... is the President calling out the corrupt political/media cabal in America? R u READY FOR RAIN? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NWD-x3GIUFA

Tired of watching democracy get waterboarded with mail-in ballots? Election Month continues in CA and SCOTUS is poised to weigh in as late "results" tilt the scales against Steve Hilton & Spencer Pratt in favor of Democrat hegemony.
