The White House offered a blistering response to "Saturday Night Live" after it cracked an assassination joke at the expense of President Donald Trump.

During Saturday's "Weekend Update" segment, cast member Michael Che set up the joke by noting that Trump attended the opening night performance of "Chicago" at the Trump Kennedy Center.

"I think that's cool that the president is going to the theater. I mean — what's the worst that could happen?" Che said with a grin, referencing the assassination of President Abraham Lincoln, which sparked massive cheers from the liberal audience.

Why is SNL even on air??????????????? Whiskey Tango Alpha Foxtrot??????????????? :wtf2:  :???: :mental:

Have to wonder how many of those Parliament members are listed in the Epstein Files.

Probably at least half of them.

Experience shows that these perverts don't just 'dabble' in their predilection. Once they figure out they can get away with their perversion, their impulse control is almost as non-existent as the average DUmp'Rat's.

You may safely bet the mortgage that if they were in Parliament back when Epstein was running his honey trap, they're in the 'Files.

General Discussion / Why the Iran War is a Brutal Reality Check for the ‘Green’ Lobby

Why the Iran War is a Brutal Reality Check for the ‘Green’ Lobby

Just hours before the war in Iran kicked off, North Dakota District Court Judge James D. Gion issued a final judgment ordering several Greenpeace entities to pay $345 million to Energy Transfer to compensate for their destructive role in the 2016–2017 Dakota Access Pipeline (DAPL) protests

Among those ordered to pay was Greenpeace USA—and because the judgment is larger than its yearly revenues and far exceeds its readily available assets, the case is understandably considered existential for that organization.

For a US state with a population just under 800,000, North Dakota punches well above its weight in global energy markets.

Representing one of the Union’s more conservative states, local leaders made the political decision to aggressively develop the Bakken Formation, an attractive shale play that helped push oil production to over 1 million barrels per day (bpd) in just a few years.

Australia closed their refineries. The Iran War happens and is now leading problems. Green energy is quixotic.

General Discussion / Megan Rapinoe Rejects Basic Biology While Reacting To Olympics Much-Needed Rulin

Megan Rapinoe Rejects Basic Biology While Reacting To Olympics Much-Needed Ruling On Trans Athletes
https://www.outkick.com/sports/megan-rapinoe-olympics-trans-athletes-ruling-reaction

Quote
Beginning with the 2028 Olympics in Los Angeles, biological males will not be allowed to compete against biological females. The International Olympic Committee (IOC) has ruled that men will compete in men's events and women will compete in women's events.

Nothing about that is or should be controversial for anyone living in reality. For Megan Rapinoe, who is among those who subscribe to the idea that feelings matter more than facts, and we can quite literally just make things up as we go, biological males being told that they can't compete against females is wrong.

In Rapinoe's world, the transgender athlete – a biological male in this instance – matters more than the biological female competing in the women's category. I'd say make it make sense, but you can't.

The former U.S. women's soccer star reacted to the IOC's recent ruling about biological males being banned from competing in the women's category in an extremely predictable fashion during a recent episode on her ‘A Touch More’ podcast.

Talk about internalized misogyny.  :mental:

ABUSE HELL I was sneaked into Parliament as a teen and offered to high-profile politician for sex, says grooming gang survivor

https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/38697228/grooming-gangs-sex-trafficked-houses-parliament-forced-cops/

There appears to have been a ~20-year gap between the abuse and her reporting it, so taking this with a block of salt may be warranted.

The female who in 2019 claimed that DJT raped her when she was 13 was in 2019 interviewed 4 times by the FBI, and every version was substantially different, enough so that - Trump-Haters pretend this did not happen - the FBI concluded that she was lying. Wanting to believe a lurid claim cannot make the claim true.

Have to wonder how many of those Parliament members are listed in the Epstein Files.

I’m an optimist but I’m not holding out a lot of hope for the missing guy. Best we can hope for is he will be captured. Unlike Hegseth, I suspect the Iranians will treat him much better than we are treating them.

Speaking of not ageing well.

Just went around the dark side of the moon. just went in Iran and reduced our MIA in this conflict to ZERO. But orange crush posts TDS propaganda that has no connection to reality.
Orangecrush, try looking at this Iran conflict brought to you by Trump's military. Precise, near perfection in execution. One of the most impressive military actions in history. Now, travel back in time and enjoy how your side thinks its done:

It proves your news sources are jokes. And as a result, so are you.

Report: Group of Women Preparing to Accuse Rep. Swalwell of Harassment

https://hotair.com/john-s-2/2026/04/06/report-group-of-women-preparing-to-accuse-rep-swalwell-of-harassment-n3813608

We all remember the story of Fang Fang, the Chinese spy who allegedly approached Rep. Eric Swalwell when he was still a city council member in Dublin, CA. She allegedly helped with fundraising for his 2014 run for congress. In 2015, Swalwell got a tip from the FBI that Fang Fang was a spy and then cut off contact with her. Swalwell has repeatedly denied having any relationship with her beyond meeting her in a professional capacity.

Today there is another story apparently coming together behind the scenes involving Swalwell and alleged sexual harassment involving multiple women. What takes this past the rumors stage is that the person highlighting these claims is a progressive attorney named Cheyenne Hunt who runs a site called Gen Z for Change. She is on Swalwell's side of the aisle but says she found out about this issue because a personal friend came forward about it. She posted a video about it on Tik Tok which has since been re-posted on X.

The key allegation here, and again this hasn't been verified by any major news outlet yet, is that Swalwell has a habit of sleeping with his staffers and interns and then relying on an NDA to keep it quiet.

Last night, Cheyenne Hunt posted a thread on X going into more detail. Hunt says she is working with a group of women who are currently speaking with reporters about their experiences.

My confirmation bias is rather obvious, but I'll say that at this point, this story looks to be transitioning from rumor-grade to public accusation. It also looks to be at least some women from within the past decade. FWIW, Swillwell married his second wife in 2016. Details of his first marriage are not online that I could find. If claims of Swillwell having played mattress polo with Fang Fang are correct, Zipper-Wisdom and Swillwell are not close acquaintances.
