Vance Has A Cringe-Inducing Marie Antoinette Moment

J Divan Vance once again demonstrated how he has a complete disconnect from what's going on in the country with a Marie Antoinette moment. While Americans are struggling to make ends meet and having to choose between food, medicine, and gasoline, Vance is bragging about how posh his life is:

Vance was speaking with Mike Rowe on his podcast when he couldn't contain himself:

Like, my life is - dude - totally transformed.

I don't go to the grocery store anymore. People go to the grocery store for me. Most of my meals, like, when I cook a meal - it's like, I love to cook, actually, big baker. I like to cook for my kids as a special occasion, but I don't have to cook anymore because I've got an army of people who are willing to like cook me my food. My life is so weird. I fly around on a 757, no more TSA lines for for me and the kids. It's so weird, but it can become the sort of thing that if you internalize it, you start to be an entitled asshole.

Oh, wow, J Divan, dude, like that ship has totally sailed, dude. I can think of only one person who is a bigger entitled asshole than you are, and his initials are President Pedo.

Vance doesn't even grasp that this "army of people" he thinks just live to cook for him are actually employees, most of whom are probably getting paid shit wages, to serve his pampered ass. Trust me, dude, no one likes you enough to put up with you for free.

This slushie machine was a lifesaver during NYC’s heat wave

Last weekend’s brutal NYC heat wave had me craving a frozen drink almost every afternoon. Normally, that would mean sweating through a walk to 7-Eleven for a slurpee. This time, though, I stayed home and put the new Ninja Slushi Twist to the test. Ninja’s latest slushie machine builds on the popularity of the original […]

Trump's CDC Stopped Monitoring A Parasite. Guess What's Spreading Now.

A nationwide outbreak of explosive diarrhea is currently underway, and it's tied to a parasite the CDC quietly dropped from federal surveillance back in July 2025. That timing lines up almost exactly with the Trump administration's broader gutting of health and science agencies under the "government efficiency" banner, HuffPost reports.

A parasite called Cyclospora has sickened over 1,000 people across 29 states, with Michigan getting hit the worst of all. The CDC would probably have caught this sooner — if it hadn't stopped watching for it.

The agency's FoodNet program used to track eight foodborne pathogens, until that surveillance simply stopped. Cyclospora, Campylobacter, Listeria, Shigella, Vibrio, and Yersinia were tracked. But in July 2025, right around the time the Trump administration started gutting federal health agencies and Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. pushed out scientists and researchers, that surveillance ended.

What's left of FoodNet now tracks exactly two things: Salmonella and E. coli. Everything else, apparently, is on the honor system.

Kevin McCarthy Continues To Beclown Himself On Fox Over Platner

Former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy's hypocrisy was on full display this Friday as he demanded apologies from liberals who supported Platner and "overlooked the womanizing" before the rape accusations.

He made a fool of himself this Monday when he made the ridiculous claim that Republicans "walk away" from their bad candidates during an appearance on Jesse Watters' show.

He was back at it again with John Roberts on America Reports, attacking the potential candidates that might replace Platner, which prompted Roberts to read from a portion of a Wall Street Journal article claiming they'll be making a huge mistake if they nominate another liberal to take Platner's place.

Which was followed by this nonsense by McCarthy:

ROBERTS: I mean, what's the problem with a moderate candidate in the state of Maine?

MCCARTHY: Well, see, it's kind of what I raised earlier. It's the weakness of the style of leadership that we have in Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck Schumer.

They sit back, and then the socialists, because they have more enthusiasm, they're running the tables on these individuals instead of people standing up.

And when you look at who is the real leader of the Democratic Party, it is Bernie Sanders, AOC, and Mamdani. But what you're finding is, why isn't Bernie Sanders apologizing, or Ro Khanna, for what they did?

Trump Goon Subpoenas NYT Reporters Over Embarrassing Air Force One Story

Friday night, the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York, Jay Clayton, soothed Donald Trump’s ruffled feathers and petty, authoritarian ego by subpoenaing at least four New York Times reporters who had the audacity to embarrass President P***y Grabber.

The offense to Trump’s fragile fee-fees was a Times report exposing the inadequacy of his renovations to the Qatari “gift” Air Force One, the one that we, the taxpayers, are paying hundreds of millions to upgrade. Trump had claimed that he flew the old Air Force One out of Turkey last week “for old times' sake” and “so the new jet could leave early and make stops at U.S. military bases to show it off to the troops because the aircraft is ‘magnificent.’” The Times noted.

In reality, Trump flew the old plane for security reasons. “People briefed on the new plane’s capabilities, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss sensitive security issues, said the new plane does not have all the features of the older plane,” The Times reported.

Although the article doesn’t come right out and say so, it seems pretty clear that President Deal Maker was so eager to fly around in his new luxurious “gift” that he rushed the renovations and didn’t have them finished properly. Sound familiar?
