Count on Donald Trump to screw the unscrewable pooch. Seeking to dispel the accurate charge that he has contempt for the U.S military and those who join it, Trump’s team took him to Arlington National Cemetery for a photo op proving that he does too like the troops, even if he calls them “suckers.” Just one problem: The cemetery bans political activity. Did that stop the MAGAts? Of course not. They even attacked the guards who tried to stop them. Your mileage may vary, but I won’t be satisfied until we unleash the equivalent of Sherman’s March on the American fascist movement.

Trying to hold them accountable in court has run afoul of the right’s decades of court-packing, but special prosecutor Jack Smith keeps plugging away. He filed a new indictment against Trump over his Jan. 6 coup plotting, this time without some of the evidence that ran afoul of the Supreme Court’s egregious “the president is a king” ruling.

Mark Zuckerberg, the gormless twit who stole one good idea and thinks it makes him anything other than a gormless twit, groveled before Jim Jordan and his pack of congressional hyenas, lamenting that he listened when the Biden administration pressured him to take some responsibility for harming the public. He also promised that next time he won’t listen. Nice try, sport, but you’re still the only tech bigshot without his own space penis.

If you want to deflect the accusation that you’re weird, what better way to do it than fawn over batshit lunatic RFK Jr.. There are those who think Trump might even bump JD Vance off the ticket in favor of Brain Worm Boy. No, nothing weird there.

I have an early dentist appointment, so you’re guaranteed to be having a better day than I am. The floor’s yours.
