Soulless Ghouls Gutfeld And Watters Yuck It Up While Lying About USAID Cut Deaths
There's a special place in hell waiting for these two assholes, along with the world's new trillionaire, Elon Musk, who they were defending.
During a segment on this Thursday's The Five, which was yet another "everything is going badly for Democrats" segment even though the opposite is true with which party is likely in deep trouble for the midterms even with all of the Republicans' attempts to cheat as much as possible, host Jesse Watters lauded the cuts to USAID as something his party should be proud of and run on for the midterms.
When his co-host, Jessica Tarlov, pointed out that those cuts are something they shouldn't be proud of, Watters and Gutfeld immediately mocked her for bringing it up and lied about the program.
Here's the full exchange:
PERINO: The fundamentals of the economy, if you look at the statistics, it's like, why are people in a bad mood, right? Unemployment is at a rate that is relatively low for a country that gas prices are starting to come down and that looks like the trajectory is holding. We just had this huge IPO, the stock market's up, and yet people on the left in particular tell pollsters that they're in a terrible mood and they hate the country.

Nearly 160 Troops Sick With Flu, Thanks To Hegseth
File under “Don’t say we didn’t warn you!”
The New York Times reported that less than two months after the unqualified and unfit Defense Secretary Pete “WhiskeyLeaks” Hegseth rescinded the mandate for troops to get flu vaccines, almost 160 of them at Lackland Air Force base are sick with the flu. One has died, though it is not known for sure that flu is the cause.
As John Amato previously reported, Hegseth made his killer decision in late April because “your faith and your convictions are not negotiable.”
Well, guess what Petey Puffy Face? The flu virus is not negotiable either. “The outbreak at the base in San Antonio raced through an Air Force Basic Military Training wing, where new recruits sleep on bunk beds in open bays and share meals at large communal tables,” The Times said.
Who could have guessed such a thing would happen? Just about anybody.
It’s not just a matter of basic decency to protect our serving men and women from serious illness. It’s also a matter of keeping our troops ready and able to fight. Republican Sen. Roger Wicker, an Air Force veteran and chair of the Armed Services Committee, opposed the policy for that very reason, according to The Times, saying, “You know, you do give up certain rights when you take the oath,” and “It’s just part of it.”

Hannity: Iran Deal Will Be Great Because Of Se''t Know About Yet Don't Know About Yet
Ben Shapiro joined Fox News today and said the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) does not achieve any of the actual goals put forth by Trump after attacking Iran, and instead blamed JD Vance for not serving him well.
Let the gaslighting begin.
On a whim, and not wanting to give up the world spotlight, Trump was easily persuaded, refusing to listen to cooler heads and joined Bibi Netanyahu to attack Iran. Like his illegal tariffs and violent ICE raids, it blew up in his face very quickly.
Wanting to get out of it, Trump sent unqualified supporters like Vance, Kushner, and Witkoff to negotiate.
How did that work out?
According to Ben Shapiro, not well.
SHAPIRO: Well, I've said many times the president deciding to go into Iran and to hit nuclear facilities in Operation Midnight Hammer and then to go after Iran's ballistic missile facilities, nuclear facilities, Army, Navy and Air Force in this current operation was the signal act of political bravery, perhaps of my lifetime.
With that said, this M. O. U. appears to be just from the text a disaster that does not achieve any of the actual signal goals that were set by the administration at the beginning.
There were effectively five goals that were set by the administration at the beginning. One was ending the nuclear program, not just nuclear weapons, no nuclear enrichment, zero enrichment.
That is not in the deal.
Ballistic missiles ended.
That is not in the deal.

World leaders want American AI. They just don’t want America to be able to turn it off.
French President Macron and Indian PM Modi raised alarms at the G7 summit that the U.S. could cut off access to American AI overnight — a fear the Anthropic blackout just made real.

J.D. Vance Goes On The View To Try To Make People Like Him
Via Rolling Stone, J.D. Vance is watching his future political prospects dim as he continues to stand by The Trump. A disastrous foray into Iran, an economy in turmoil, an administration riddled with the kind of corruption that will rebound for decades in court cases and investigations. Faced with the prospect of becoming even more entrenched as an avatar for the failures and broken promises of Trump’s second presidency, Vance is embarking on a media tour to try to remind people that they supposedly liked him at some point, starting with an appearance on The View. (When was that?)
The ladies of The View have long been some of the favorite foils of Trumpland, and it turns out the hosts of ABC’s flagship talk show came prepared to spar. Vance seemed unprepared to actually defend the actions of the administration in which he serves.
The hosts repeatedly questioned the vice president about Trump failing to follow through on his campaign promises — on everything from the economy to the Epstein files — instead focusing on his own self-enrichment and self-aggrandizement.

Trump Casually Dismisses Iran's Enriched Material After All The Buildup
During a presser with the media at the G7 summit in Evian-les-Bains, France, Trump claimed that after bombing an Iranian mountain, it may not be worth finding the leftover enriched uranium "because it's not really valuable."
Enriched uranium is the main ingredient to produce a nuclear weapon, and there is no such thing as worthless enriched uranium.
Trump attacked Iran over enriched uranium, for fuck's sake.
Trump keeps using an analogy called "nuclear dust" after he bombs what they claim is a nuclear facility, but that is a ridiculous comparison.
"Nuclear dust" is fallout from a nuclear explosion or radioactive material after a nuclear disaster. Not whatever this moronic president pretends it is.
"My second term, we sent in the B-2 bombers, and we terminated their – I call it the nuclear dust – their enriched material, right?" Trump said. "And totally effectively."
Huh?
TRUMP: So the Atomic Energy just reported that it was one of the most devastating bombings that they've ever seen.
The whole mountain collapsed on top of it.
And frankly, to go get it – we're going to go get it – but to go get it is a big deal because they say only China and us have the equipment where you can even get – the whole mountain has collapsed on top.
We have cameras on it.
You could make the case why you're even bothering, because it's not really valuable.
