Gridiron Serpents!

Hello.

An unintentional incident but still a stupid incident.

A dangerous pit viper was found inside the helmet of an Arkansas high school player. He ended up being extremely lucky the animal did not strike. 

A cottonmouth is a common venomous snake. It is exist in the Southeast. 

A high school football player recently had a venomous, scaled surprise tucked away in their football helmet.

Animal services in Maumelle, Arkansas, received a call from Maumelle High School last Thursday, reporting a snake had been found curled inside a football helmet, Chris Davis, director of animal services for Maumelle, said in a statement to ABC News.

Amy Eoff, lead animal control officer with Maumelle Animal Services, added that it was reported to them that a player had been wearing the helmet for an hour before noticing the creature.

Nick Farr, executive principal of Maumelle High School, told ABC News, "The student in question did feel something kind of moving on his head and, he took his helmet off and alerted the defensive coordinator that 'Hey, there is a snake in my helmet.'"

Athletic director Kirk Horton and Farr were notified shortly after the incident.

The student's guardian was notified and the student was evaluated to confirm he was in good condition, according to Farr.

Cottonmouth vipers are dangerous.

According to Eoff, the snake was initially reported to be a copperhead, but once animal services examined the specimen, they realized it was a cottonmouth snake, a venomous serpent found across America's Deep South and as far north as southern Missouri and Virginia.

Davis said two officers attended the scene and confirmed the snake was lodged in the helmet's padding.

Once the cottonmouth arrived at the shelter, still in the football helmet, Davis said the service's realized tools would not be able to pull the snake out of the helmet.

The team decided to flood the snake out by placing the helmet in a container and submerging it in water until the snake decided to come out of the helmet for air, when the team was able to remove the snake, according to Eoff and Davis.

Eoff said the snake is still alive and was released elsewhere after its removal.

"Everybody should be cautious leaving anything outside," Eoff said in an interview with ABC News. "Snakes will curl up into anything."

"Most of the time these snakes are not trying to harm anybody, but of course they're fierce," she said. "So, if anybody reaches in, they're probably going to snap at them cause they're just terrified."

ABC News has reached out to Pulaski County Special School District for more information.

If you are approached by a cottonmouth (also known as a water moccasin), freeze immediately, stand your ground, and then slowly take several steps backward.

Cottonmouths are deeply misunderstood creatures. Despite persistent myths, they are not inherently aggressive, do not hunt humans, and will not chase you. 

If one is moving toward you, it is almost always because you are unintentionally blocking its path to a water source or a safe hiding spot.

• Follow these critical safety steps to handle an encounter safely.
• Freeze and assess: Sudden movements can trigger a defensive strike. Pause to see where the snake is heading.
• Back away slowly: Maintain a safe distance of at least 6 to 10 feet away from the snake.
• Do not block its exit: Look behind you and to the sides. Ensure you are not standing between the snake and its escape route (usually water or thick brush).
• Leave it alone: Never try to poke, kick, trap, or kill the snake. Attempting to harm a cottonmouth drastically increases your chances of being bitten.

In the rare event that you are bitten, you must treat it as a medical emergency. 

According to guidelines from the Mayo Clinic and Poison Control, you should immediately do the following:

• Call 911: Seek emergency medical attention right away. Emergency rooms carry polyvalent antivenom (such as CroFab or Anavip) to treat pit viper bites.
• Stay completely calm: An elevated heart rate pumps venom through your body faster. Sit down, rest, and minimize movement.
• Remove tight items: Take off any jewelry, watches, rings, or tight clothing near the bite site before swelling begins.
• Position the limb: Keep the bitten arm or leg rested at or slightly above heart level.
• Take a photo (if safe): If the snake is still nearby, snap a quick photo from a safe distance to help the emergency physicians confirm the species. 

Avoid these dangerous myths:

• Do NOT use a tourniquet or wrap the wound tightly, as this traps venom and destroys local tissue.
• Do NOT apply ice or submerge the wound in cold water.
• Do NOT cut the wound or attempt to suck out the venom by mouth or with a pump kit.
• Do NOT take pain relievers like aspirin, Advil (ibuprofen), or Aleve (naproxen), as they thin your blood and worsen the venom's anti-clotting effects. Use acetaminophen (Tylenol) if absolutely necessary.

Can we get the Darwin Award for the most stupidest people on the planet?

You can't fix stupid!

You can't change minds!

You are completely trapped in stupid.

You are wrapped and emboldened in stupid.

Again, why do white people always treat wild animals like they're domesticated? 

I don't get why some of these people believe it's their mission to disrupt the lives of others. 

This is why Republicans are idiots. Democrats are idiots too but at least some of them have the sense to not engage in stupidity. Not saying all Republicans are idiots, but definitely the ones who voted for President Donald J. Trump are.

I've said it before and I stand by what I say: "Wild animals are......well you know!"

Interacting with uncontacted people is dangerous. Well, they are.... you know!"

If you want to be a thrill seeker, you might want to get life insurance.

David Crowley Wins!

David Crowley's slim victory shows deep division with the Democrats. Pro Israel Dems and dark money once again stops progressives. While I am happy a Black person won, his win is not going to sway voters in majority white Wisconsin.

The noise wins.

Okay, let me make this clear. I don’t care anymore about the identity politics right now. If you are supportive of Israel, a get along to go along, a work across the aisle, a water down, an establishment politician, you are not going to succeed.

The progressive movement want fighters. 

Unfortunately David Crowley isn't a fighter and he will pay the price. Crowley who reentered the race was heavily backed by dark money defeated Francesca Hong, a progressive state lawmaker in the race for governor.

His razor thin win shows internal issues within the Democratic Party. His win puts the governor’s race in Lean Republican. 

He will face off against an election denying white nationalist, Rep. Tom Tiffany (R-WI).

Crowley who skipped the Arab American Forum, suspended his campaign, only reentered when Mandela Barnes and Lieutenant Governor Sara Rodriguez exited the race had an amazing comeback. 

Crowley won on older Black voters. The dog whistle campaign against Hong was there.

Now this is going to be an example of Democrats shooting themselves in the foot. Words do not pay the bills. It does not lower the gas prices. It does not feed families. It does not pay mortages, rent, loans and life in general. 

Instead of ignoring the noise, Gov. Tony Evers and Wisconsin Democrats are gambling on chasing that elusive white vote. Fuck that shit. Everyone is important.

Crowley defeated Hong by less than half of a percentage point in an election outcome that none of the statewide polls predicted. In every survey, including one Crowley's campaign paid for, Hong carried a double-digit lead in the race.

Crowley was declared the winner by the Associated Press early Wednesday, Aug. 12, after a series of reporting delays in Milwaukee, Winnebago and Green counties. If the slim margin in unofficial results holds, it could be within the 1% threshold at which Hong could request a recount at the campaign's expense.

"David is ready to get back to work, build a broad coalition, and win in November," Crowley campaign manager Garren Randolph said in a statement.

The dog whistle blew. Francesca Hong's loss is heartbreaking. She called for unity to rally behind Crowley.

Tuesday's election outcome underscored the popularity of Gov. Evers.

The Milwaukee County Executive had dropped out of the race in July in reaction to polling that showed he had failed to break through in a crowded primary but returned to the race just days later with an endorsement from Evers, who holds a job approval rating of more than 50% in a recent Marquette University Law School survey.

Crowley's win also delivers a loss to the democratic socialist movement, which has seen victories in New York, Colorado and Michigan. Hong's loss came after the state representative spent more than a week being the subject of national scrutiny and criticism over her past social media posts that called to abolish police and criticized holidays.

The noise of free speech. I mean her words aren't fucking policies. This shit is such a distraction which makes me wonder why the Democrats always want to walk on fucking egg shells. 

Crowley and Evers spent the last month of the race crisscrossing the state, arguing Hong could not beat Tiffany in a general election environment, in part because of those posts.

What makes Crowley think he can win? 

When the Democratic voters oppose dark money, Israel, water down politics and weak fighters, Crowley is weak.

Crowley will face a worthless shithead like Tiffany in a Nov. 3 general election.

At Tiffany's campaign event in Hartland, some supporters told the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel they were hoping for a matchup with Hong given the stark contrast between the two. Republican groups spent millions on ads during the primary to boost Hong's name ID in an effort to help her win the party's nomination, viewing Hong as more beatable than other candidates.

Paul Kurtz, a 50-year-old man from Janesville, said he believed Tiffany is the best candidate because “he’s steady, he’s a Wisconsinite through and through."

If Crowley wins, he'll face an electorate that doesn't know him well. In the latest Marquette University Law School poll, two-thirds of Democratic primary voters said they didn't know enough about him to have an opinion.

Milwaukee Mayor Cavalier Johnson told the Journal Sentinel he's known Crowley for about 25 years, and they went to high school together.

"David is a gregarious guy. He is down to earth. He is funny," Johnson said in an interview at Crowley's election night event on Tuesday. "But he is a fighter, and he likes to learn. He will deliver for all communities, all across the state."

Crowley revived campaign after Rodriguez dropped out

Crowley revived his campaign after a whirlwind week of developments during which he learned the candidate he’d endorsed was out of money, received calls from supporters urging him to get back in the race and earned the backing Evers.

Crowley had ended his campaign July 8, saying it had "become clear" he would not be the Democratic nominee. The following day, he endorsed Lt. Gov. Sara Rodriguez, who, within days, would announce she had fired her campaign manager for “serious mismanagement” of campaign finances.

Now the pro Israel money will flow to a white nationalist who voted to not certify the 2020 presidential election. Tom Tiffany is a curmudgeon do nothing lawmaker who will play dog whistle on Crowley now that Hong lost.

Rodriguez withdrew from the race the morning of July 17, and Crowley's return to the race became official before the day was done. The governor's endorsement followed July 18, when Crowley relaunched his campaign with a rally in Milwaukee.

Asked shortly after he rejoined the race why he brought his own campaign back to life rather than backing another candidate who’d stayed in the race, Crowley stressed his experience as county executive.

“None of the candidates, while I've had the opportunity to work with them in their different roles, none of them has the experience of running government, of getting pieces of legislation passed that's going to directly impact families across this state like we did,” Crowley told the Journal Sentinel at the time.

From the start of his campaign reboot, Crowley pointed to efforts by Republican groups to boost Hong, cautioning voters “about Republicans spending money in our Democratic primary.”

Crowley continued to make part of his pitch to voters a warning that Tiffany, who is endorsed by Trump, could defeat Hong even in a political environment has soured on Trump and favors Democrats.

Evers' decision over a year ago to not seek a third term created a wide open race for Democrats, that saw numerous candidates drop out over the summer. State Sen. Kelda Roys and former Evers cabinet member Joel Brennan stayed into the race until the end and both trailed Crowley.

Secretary of State Sarah Godlewski of Madison will join Crowley as a running mate and former Lancaster Mayor David Varnam will join Tiffany on the GOP ticket.

Peggy Flanagan Got It!

Rock on Peg.

Minnesota Lieutenant Governor Peggy Flanagan defeats Rep. Angie Craig (D-MN) in the senate race to replace Sen. Tina Smith (D-MN). Smith, a former lieutenant governor became a senator when Al Franken resigned after Roger Stone pushed a photo of Leeann Tweeden.

Franken, an actor, comedian and satirist was a two term U.S. Senator. When Tweeden published the photo of Franken playfully looking like he was going to grope her, it drew outrage. It also drew allegations of inappropriate behavior. Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY) considering a presidential bid called for his immediate resignation.

Smith who intially supported Franken's bid withdrew it soon after. Then governor Mark Dayton appointed Smith to fill the remaining term. Smith would easily win her bids.

Now Smith stayed neutral in this race. 

Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-MN) who ran for president in 2020 as well announced she will run for governor of Minnesota. Gov. Tim Walz, former vice presidential nominee announced he wouldn't seek a third term. Apparently the Nick Shirley deception videos brought a difficult challenge for him. He also had dealt the deaths of Melissa Hortmann and her husband. Walz also announced he was not running for president. 

Klobuchar, a pro Israel Democrat won the nomination. While she was clearly the frontrunner, her Israel support will harm her. Her potential opponents in the Republican fold are weak as fuck.

Governor's race is LIKELY DEMOCRAT.

Senate race is LEAN DEMOCRAT.

Okay, Flanagan.

She is She is of Irish and Ojibwe descent and is a citizen of the White Earth Nation.

She will be the Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party nominee. The DFL is the Democratic Party affiliate. 

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT), Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) and Sen. Chris Van Hollen (D-MD) backed Flanagan. Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY), Sen. Elissa Slotkin (D-MI), Sen. Angus King (I-ME) and Sen. Mark Warner (D-VA) backed Craig. Even Gwen Walz, the first lady of Minnesota backed Craig. Tim Walz stayed neutral.

Craig, a moderate and pro Israel Democrat was easily defeated. 

It would be a first for both had one won the nomination. The first Native American woman versus the third Democratic woman who identifies as a lesbian.

Tammy Bruce and Laphonza Butler were lesbian. Kyrsten Sinema identified as bisexual.

“This entire campaign has been about the many versus the money,” Flanagan told NBC News’ “Meet the Press Now” on the eve of the primary. Craig and her allies combined to spend nearly $20 million on the airwaves, while Flanagan and her allies spent $4.7 million, according to AdImpact.

“I’m running to make sure that people can afford the lives they want to live,” Flanagan said. “I want to get big money out of our politics, and I want to fight for things like ‘Medicare for All’ so that people aren’t just paying for health insurance but actually have access to health care.”

Flanagan criticized Craig, who is in her fourth term, for not standing up enough to President Donald Trump’s administration, which Craig disputed. Craig, who held a competitive House seat in the Twin Cities metro area, had argued that she was the best candidate to win in November.

Another pro Israel Democrat heads home. Angie Craig got trounced by Peggy Flanagan.

Immigration became a major dividing line in the race after federal agents shot and killed two U.S. citizens, Renee Good and Alex Pretti, in Minneapolis this year amid the Trump administration’s immigration enforcement surge.

Craig faced criticism for having voted for the Laken Riley Act, an immigration detention measure that Trump signed into law shortly after he started his second term in January 2025. Craig said she later regretted that vote. Flanagan has called for abolishing U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, saying in a recent Minnesota Public Radio debate that ICE “has to be ripped apart.” Flanagan said she does support immigration enforcement to ensure secure borders.

Flanagan, meanwhile, faced criticism from Craig over Minnesota’s handling of fraud in social services programs, with Craig suggesting that Republicans would be eager to use the issue against Flanagan in the fall. Flanagan accused Craig of parroting “Republican talking points.”

Asked during their debate whether she had a role in responding to the fraud scandal, Flanagan said, “The governor has taken the lead here, and the administration has been aggressive internally in working to stop fraud, prevent it from happening in the first place.”

Democratic Gov. Tim Walz, who decided not to run for re-election, stayed neutral in the Senate primary. But his wife, Gwen, backed Craig over Flanagan, the governor’s ticketmate.

After a divisive primary, Flanagan’s next task will be to unite the party as Democrats turn to November. She told “Meet the Press Now” that Democrats would come together to take on Trump.

“Congresswoman Craig and I will be unified in making sure that Democrats hold this seat no matter what happens. We can’t afford to give this Donald Trump one more seat in the United States Senate,” she said.

Craig said during the debate that she would support Flanagan if she won the primary.

“We have an existential crisis in our nation with Trump and Republicans, and so I would be right by the lieutenant governor’s side asking my supporters to support her,” Craig said. “The most important thing in this election is that we beat Republicans. That’s what matters.”

Former NBC Sports reporter Michele Tafoya trounces Royce White, a former NBA player who wants to troll the WNBA. She is a weak opponent. GOP and MAGA call her a plant.

On the Republican side, former NFL sideline reporter Michele Tafoya won the Senate primary, NBC News projects. Although Trump did not endorse in the primary, Tafoya had support from National Republican Senatorial Campaign Chairman Tim Scott (R-SC), as national Republicans viewed her as the only contender who could put the race in play.

Tafoya, a self-described “pro-choice” Republican, has faced some questions about her conservative credentials. She did not win the state GOP’s endorsement at the May convention, where delegates instead backed retired Navy SEAL Adam Schwarze.

She pitched herself as a political outsider, pledging in a campaign ad to “crack down on corruption, stop illegal immigrants from voting in our elections and to keep men out of women’s sports.”

Republicans are optimistic the race could be competitive in the fall, as they have made some gains in the state in the Trump era.

Trump lost Minnesota by 4 percentage points in 2024, winning 47% of the vote, which was the best performance by a GOP presidential candidate in two decades. But it has also been 20 years since Republicans last won a statewide election in Minnesota, when Tim Pawlenty was re-elected as governor in 2006.

Sea Slugs Darline Graham Nordone And Ralph Norman!

Graham Nordone will likely win runoff.

The sister of the late asshole, Lindsey Graham and rival House member will have two weeks to prove they are going to be reliable votes to that curmudgeon Donald J. Trump.

She is the first woman to represent South Carolina in the United States Senate.

President Donald J. Trump endorsed Sen. Darline Graham Nordone (R-SC) over opponent Rep. Ralph Norman (R-SC). Norman was not endorsed in the governor primary by Trump.

He ended up losing in a distant third place. Norman and Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) were in the crosshairs of Trump. They ended up losing to Alan Wilson, the South Carolina Attorney General. He is strongly favored to win in November.

The death of Lindsey Graham shook the race. I mean he was an awful human being.

Yet, Darline saw her brother as a hero, savior, a great uncle and a good man. In the four weeks of being the junior senator, she has nothing to show. Yet, she is betting on her brother's disgusting legacy, the president's endorsement and her hotty factor.

She is a MAGA MILF. 

She will use her fixtures to win over male voters. Trust me, she is doing it.

Ralph Norman is gonna be defeated again.

Graham Nordone, a 62-year-old vocational rehabilitation administrator, will now face Norman, 73, who retired from his northern South Carolina seat to run for governor, only to finish third in the GOP primary in June.

Whoever wins that Aug. 25 runoff will face pediatrician Annie Andrews, who won the Democratic nomination in June, in the November general election.

Unlike Lindsey Graham, whose political career began 34 years ago with a run for a South Carolina state legislative seat, Graham Nordone’s career began exactly four weeks ago, two days after her brother’s death. While she was first discussed as a caretaker for the position until the new Congress starts in January, Trump quickly pushed for her to run for the full six-year term.

It remains to be seen whether Trump will continue backing Graham Nordone heading into the runoff. Before the June primary, he endorsed the sitting lieutenant governor Pamela Evette in the governor’s race. But after she just barely defeated state attorney general Alan Wilson, Trump backed away from Evette and “co-endorsed” both candidates. Wilson wound up winning the runoff, with Trump claiming full credit.

Have South Carolina senate race as Safe Republican. 

Curmudgeon Feared Iran Strike!

Trump flew coach.

The U.S. Secret Service and Joint Chief of Staff secretly plotted an escape plan for President Donald J. Trump while he was in Türkiye. While at the NATO summit, the president was supposed to fly on his Qatari gifted Air Force One. The U.S. Secret Service and Vice President JD Vance did not find suitable for him while frustrations were building up back in the United States.

So the president ended up going home on the original Air Force One. However, the Washington Post had reported that a secret transfer of the 80 year old curmudgeon to a smaller military plane was the objective as the Iranians still furious over the Feb. 2026 attacks vowed to take him out.

The elaborate operation took place on July 8 as Trump departed Ankara following a NATO summit and one day after the U.S. renewed military strikes on Iran. While the White House publicly maintained that Trump traveled to Britain aboard the legacy Air Force One — not his gifted Qatari jet — the president was actually aboard an Air Force C-32A, a modified Boeing 757, the Post reported.

Iran has Trump, Vance, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Ben Shapiro, Laura Loomer and Mark Levin targets for assassination.

Iran has considered ways of hurting the U.S. and Israel. They are targeting U.S. audiences with Lego AI and the infrastructure. They have shut down the Strait of Hormuz. That carries 20% of the oil shipments. 

As the Post article details, though, in reality, Trump first boarded the familiar blue-and-white Air Force One on July 8 in view of television cameras. Minutes later, however, Trump and several aides secretly exited through another door and entered an airport catering truck that had been raised to the aircraft.

The truck then transported them to the smaller C-32A, leaving journalists and some White House staff aboard Air Force One unaware that Trump was no longer with them. One U.S. official described the plane carrying the press and staff as a “decoy.”

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth separately boarded the C-32A and traveled with Trump to Britain, according to the report. The secret flight reportedly used the nondescript call sign “Reach 18,” while the legacy plane carrying reporters and staff eventually appeared on flight trackers as “AF1” despite Trump not being aboard.

The operation was reportedly triggered by a credible Iran-linked threat against Trump or his aircraft amid heightened tensions between Washington and Tehran. Trump has repeatedly discussed threats against his life from Iran, telling reporters after arriving in Britain that he was “number one” on the country’s “list.”

Trump's new jet is still a security issue.

The White House continued the ruse after Trump arrived in Britain, posting that he had landed “aboard the former Air Force One.” Trump was seen descending from that aircraft before later boarding the Qatari-gifted Boeing 747-8 for the flight back to Washington.

Asked that night why reporters had been ordered to close their window shades before leaving Türkiye, Trump cited the danger posed by U.S. adversaries.

“But if I go, you go. Right?” Trump told reporters. “Perhaps someday you want to change professions.”

The curmudgeon insulted Kaitlan Collins when she pressed him about why Air Force One was delayed and journalists were told to lower shades.

Of course, Israel provided the U.S. this credible threat. It seems like Israel was the reasons to why the U.S. continued its repeated attacks on Iran. 

Iran demands are simple. Pay for the damages, sovereignty of the Strait of Hormuz is under Iran and Oman, apologize to the victims, end all sanctions, leave their nuclear program alone, quit calling them terrorists and pull U.S. forces away from their sovereignty. 

The U.S. refuses the demands. 

Byron's Farm!

What better save haven for Israeli war criminals than Florida! Byron Donalds and Ashley Moody will make it so. Both idiots are vying for wins.

The circle of fools. 

White nationalist James Fishback who running for governor of Florida made a claim that his primary rival and another were involved in a federal probe.

Rep. Byron Donalds (R-FL) is making a sacrificial goat run in the primary for govenor.

He is not a serious person. Yet, he will have the full backing of President Donald J. Trump and many Republicans in Florida. He is the frontrunner but it does not feel like he got the magic of the predecessors Ron DeSanits or Rick Scott. 

With 16 years of Republicans in charge, Florida has become the catalyst of the housing and affordability crisis. People are actually leaving Florida. It is bottoming out.

Folks living in Florida are not stupid. But a lot of stupid stuff comes out of that state.

I am guessing this is manipulated because I've tried to get the actual quotes.

"We are successful as a state and people are choosing Florida. They are leaving New York, Illinois, and California because those states are stupid. Those states are really dumb. You all know, and if I was going to take a survey of people who've come from one of these other states, you would be like, 'Yeah, they're real stupid Byron, I had to get out, I couldn't take it anymore.' And they're choosing Florida.

Sharing:

I zoomed in on Blaise Ingoglia and Ashley Moody who endorsed the Woke Ex Democrat Stock Trading Puppet.

Watch their reaction when Byron malfunctions once again called people “stupid.”

Lmao! Byron Donalds did not just say this.
Listen to the audience reaction. 😄😄 https://t.co/gJsmk29Exy

— Eyes Wide Open 🧢 (@VaTechPhiDelt) August 10, 2026

Donalds said people moving to Florida are leaving from stupid policies. The condescending remarks were manipulated to interept he was saying people moving to Florida from other states are stupid. Donalds continues to disrespect other states with endless gaslighting and hyperbolic bullshit.

It has a population of 35 million residents. It has one of the largest non white Hispanic population. Yet, it is a mix of rural, suburban and urban. 

Fishback alleged during a social media announcement and a Tallahassee press conference that an anonymous "government whistleblower" revealed a federal sex trafficking investigation into Rep. Cory Mills (R-FL) had expanded to include Donalds. Fishback claimed the two traveled to the MGM National Harbor hotel in Maryland in 2024 to procure explicit sexual acts.

A DOJ spokesperson directly countered the claims, stating, "This claim is not true. Congressman Byron Donalds is not under investigation." The agency later condemned the allegations as a "dangerous form of weaponization."

White nationalist desperate to defeat Donalds.

Donalds denied the claims and called it defamatory. He said that he has no allegations of sexual abuse. 

Well what about those charter schools that were ran by Erika.

Erika Donalds involves financial management practices, alleged conflicts of interest, and a failed campus rollout related to her charter network, Optima. Because her husband, Bryon, is an ineffective Florida politician, the operations of her education companies have drawn intense media and political scrutiny.

Parents were left scrambling after the Optima Classical Academy in Fort Myers failed to open. Political opponents accused the network of enrolling hundreds of students for a nonexistent school, though representatives for Donalds noted that the Fort Myers project did not use taxpayer dollars directly prior to its opening failure.

Faculty complaints and school performance data indicated that while the private management firms thrived financially, student test scores at several Optima-run schools lagged behind the Florida state average in math and reading. Critics argue the network operates like a franchising corporation focused on profit rather than student outcomes.

Fishback has repeatedly targeted Donalds with racially charged nicknames like "By'rone" and a "DEI Republican". He also drew heavy condemnation from both sides of the aisle for calling Donalds a "slave" to corporate donors, defending the slur by claiming Donalds' family history disqualified him from taking offense.

Will David Jolly be able to convince Floridians he isn't a stupid candidate? 

Whomever becomes the Republican nominee will face against likely nominee David Jolly.

Jolly, a former Republican lawmaker turned MSNOW commentator has announced his bid to run for governor. He running as an independent but aligned with the Democratic Party.

For Florida, in the senate race. I have it Safe Republican. Sen. Ashley Moody (R-FL) will likely face off against Alex Vindman, the whistleblower who gave Trump his first impeachment. His brother Rep. Eugene Vindman (D-VA) serves as a member of the House.

In the governor's race, I have it as Toss Up. It will be a hard sell for all the candidates running. I mean all of them support the apartheid genocidial ethnostate. If I was Jolly, I would not mention too much about Israel. If I was Donalds, I would not mention Erika or his previous drug and larceny charges. 

Bobo's Circus!

Tyler Boebert got a bigger problem.

Lauren Roberts is a Colorado Republican lawmaker who uses her ex-husband Jayson Boebert's name for professional and media coverage. As her federal job as U.S. Representative for eastern Colorado, Lauren's job is to serve the rural and suburban constituents of her district.

Damn shame.

She is actually doing her job. But it's the distractions that's going to doom her.

President Donald J. Trump has hinted his displeasure of her. The Israeli lobby is keeping a tight grip on her. 

Her family is dysfunctional. Her eldest son, Tyler Boebert is an adult offender. He is a repeat nuisance in the area.

He was previously arrested in February 2024 for a string of property thefts and vehicle trespass incidents involving stolen credit cards. He later pleaded guilty to a felony count of attempted identity theft, resulting in a deferred sentence and probation. A probation revocation hearing for this case is upcoming.

Tyler Boebert, who became a father in 2023, has also been cited twice for misdemeanor child abuse/negligence without injury. These charges occurred after his toddler son repeatedly wandered away from home unsupervised. He pleaded guilty to one count of negligence, with a sentencing hearing scheduled for September 4, 2026.

According to court records, the charges stem from a video Tyler Boebert allegedly recorded on New Year's Day in 2024 involving a 17-year-old girl. At the time of the incident, Boebert was 18 years old. The video was subsequently leaked and posted to an anonymous Instagram page that featured explicit content involving minors.

The Garfield County Sheriff's Office booked Tyler Boebert on five felony counts:

• Three counts of sexual exploitation of a child (including inducing explicit conduct, possession with intent to distribute, and videotaped material).
• Two counts of contributing to the delinquency of a minor. 

He was booked into the Garfield County Jail and released the same day after posting a $10,000 bond. His next court appearance is scheduled for August 19, 2026.

Mom who is trying to make her win easier came out and spoke to the junk food media.

"I love my son. We take these allegations very seriously and pray for everyone affected during this challenging time."

The face show he knew he fucked up.

You know who ain't doing shit like this?

Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN). The Minnesota lawmaker who was a frequent target of Reps. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) and Nancy Mace (R-SC) always shows restraint. Had she went dirty and talked about the alcoholism, the cocaine, the weed, the adultery and the endless bootlicking to President Donald J. Trump and Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu should make Boebert and Mace easier to beat.

Well Mace is leaving Congress. Hopefully the Democratic opponent does get the best of Boebert and send her ass back home.

The suspect is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law. 

If convicted, Tyler Boebert faces 4 to 12 years in a Colorado iron college. On the child abuse charge, he faces 14 months to 2 years. He will earn a sexual predator tier if convicted.

$40T!

By the end of this choatic presidency, $45 trillion.

It is official, in less than two years of President Donald J. Trump's second term. The 45th/47th president has now piled on $6 trillion to the national debt.

Since the U.S. government constantly denies reality and the president's failure to admit our country is on the decline, we are approaching a financial crisis.

Days until Trump is out of office

Days of decline are ahead.

Examples of democratic backsliding include:

• Free and fair elections are degraded;
• Liberal rights of freedom of speech, press and association decline, impairing the ability of the political opposition to challenge the government, hold it to account, and propose alternatives to the current regime;
• The rule of law (i.e., judicial and bureaucratic restraints on the government) is weakened, such as when the independence of the judiciary is threatened, or when civil service tenure protections are weakened or eliminated.
• An over-emphasis on national security as response to acts of terrorism or perceived antagonists.
• Politicians can't agree on funding essential needs and services which trigger spiteful pain on the citizens.
• Economic uncertainty.

FREE PALESTINE🇵🇸!

If you wanted "Death to America," remind yourself that Trump supporters tried to violently overturn a peaceful transfer of power. They violently broke into the U.S. Capitol and tried to kill Nancy Pelosi and Mike Pence. Republicans refuse to hold President Donald J. Trump accountable for his actions. They are more upset over protected speech than a foreign country committing war crimes and an active genocide. 

Fuck the hypocrisy of President Donald J. Trump, Republicans, the far right, Zionists, former president Joe Biden, Democrats, Israel and the junk food media. 

Israel and its propaganda is not working this time around. Too many folks around the world see how the United States, Russia and Israel operate. The world wants it to stop. The U.S. is the only country still backing this evil regime of Israel.

But an eye for an eye is coming.

FOR THE TIME IN POLLING, THE SYMPATHY FOR PALESTINIANS IS GREATER THAN ISRAELIS. THAT MEANS MORE AMERICANS ARE GETTING TIRED OF OUR POLITICIANS PUTTING ISRAEL'S INTERESTS AHEAD OF THE UNITED STATES.

When young Americans are seeing children being blown up, Israeli Defense Soliders wearing the clothes of their victims, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu lecturing Americans on what is justified opinionated concerns, the AIPAC lobby trying to deflect by painting critics as being bought by foreign influence, the ADL trying push censorship campaigns on social media, the deflections to blame Muslims, the calls to deport critics because they oppose Israel, calling people "antisemitic" and a "terrorist" to stifle critics is seriously backfiring.

Americans Are Tired Of The Status Quo.

The Resistance Must Stop Israel!✊️🇵🇸 🇮🇷 🇾🇪 🇮🇶 🇵🇰 🇹🇷 🇪🇬 🇨🇳 🇯🇵 🇪🇸 🇮🇪 🇱🇧 🇹🇳 🇮🇩 🇦🇫 🇰🇪 🇶🇦 🇿🇦 🇯🇴 🇴🇲 🇱🇾 🇳🇪 🇳🇬 🇲🇽 🇨🇺 🇯🇲 🇨🇴 🇻🇪 🇳🇿 🇰🇷 🇨🇳 🇪🇸

This 🇮🇱 And Zionism Will Be Regarded As A Symbol Of Evil In The 21st Century.

Cry more!

I want the U.S., capitalism, President Donald J. Trump, Vice President JD Vance, Elon Musk, Larry Ellison, David Ellison, Jeff Bezos, Mark Zuckerberg, Bill Gates, Rupert Murdoch, Republicans, Zionism, Israel, weak ass Democrats, the Supreme Court and the whole definition of white supremacy to fail.

And fail they shall.

I am not ashamed to say this.

We officially crossed $40 trillion in national debt. So much for fiscal conservatism.

How is Fox and the far right agitators going to put a spin on this?

The president's legacy projects, the tariffs, the war in Iran and the endless partisanship with Congress are contributing to the massive debts we are laying on American taxpayers.

That One Big Beautiful Act was not helpful. Giving the tax breaks to the elite and fucking up the tax brackets to make the working class pay more in taxes was a mistake.

The "No Tax on Tips" rule doesn't work when the bars, restaurants and barbershops are closing in record numbers. 

The "No Tax on Overtime" rule doesn't work when the businesses offset the burdens by cutting hours, forbidding overtime, putting more work on already exhausted workers or the extra pay does match to the costs of things.

But yes, let's distract the public with scary words like "communism". 

Let's put the focus on social media influencers and opinions of protesters.

Let's allow our taxpayer money fund other countries while they prosper in growth.

The United States of America has made it to 250 years. In its founding, white men sowed chaos throughout the land. They stolen resources, enslaved people, raping people, ensure religious prosecution on non believers, founding a country on white men being the superior force and continue to rewrite the reasons why the U.S. is viewed negatively overseas.

Driven by persistent federal budget deficits, an aging population, and surging borrowing costs, the debt is currently accumulating at a rate of roughly $10 to $15 billion per day.

America's debt now exceeds 125% of Gross Domestic Product, a level that economists have long viewed as dangerous. Each year the federal government must refinance trillions of dollars in maturing debt while simultaneously borrowing trillions more to cover annual deficits. In 2025 alone, roughly $10 trillion in borrowing will be required to roll over maturing debt and finance ongoing deficits, making the debt ratio climb further. That strategy depends entirely on lenders continuing to purchase U.S. debt at affordable interest rates.

Polish Bison!

Hey, I am not a toy.

Another dumbass gets gored by a bison. 

White people and wildlife. 

Paul Mooney had said that its a common knowledge that the ones who often lose their lives to wildlife are the..... now we must not forget the Hombre incident. The 2016 incident at the Cincinnati Zoo where a small Black boy fell into the gorilla habitat.

The legendary gorilla Hombre was shot and killed after he got a hold of the boy.

The zoo defend its decision to kill the animal. They said that a gorilla is an unpredictable animal and the boy was in grave danger. There was a petition to have the boy's parents criminally charged for child negligence. There were racial slurs and comparisons driven towards the boy and his family. It was another key issue to President Donald J. Trump's first win in 2016. 

Trump and Republicans capitalized off Black people beinf degenerates. That incident sparked discussions about Black parenting. In the end, the Cincinnati Zoo made serious precautions to prevent visitors from entry into habitats. 

Yellowstone National Park has explicit rules when entering the park. They stress that you respect nature and due diligence. Stay on the trails and do not disturb nature.

Earlier this year, a man was gored after an angry bison chased him as he tried to take pictures of it.

A man was dissolved in the geyser of the Norris Geyser Basin. He was close to the geyser and fell in.

He was instantly dissolved into bones. 

Now this incident about that damn man and the bison.

The accompanying footage, captured in the Bialowieza Forest in Poland, shows a European bison knock a tourist down as he attempts to stand after a previous takedown. 

The footage is somewhat reminiscent – although not nearly as dramatic – of footage captured last month in Yellowstone, showing a bison chasing a tourist and launching him airborne.

In this case, according to TVP World, the tourist intentionally approached the European bison, triggering a response.

He was ultimately rescued by other tourists after the bison was distracted by a moving vehicle.

Unlike the Yellowstone tourist, who suffered a broken femur and required a hip replacement, the tourist in Poland was not seriously injured.

TVP World credits Grzegorz Rynski for the footage, which can also be viewed via Facebook.

The Bialowieza Forest, in Poland and Belarus, is home to an estimated 900 free-roaming bison.

To avoid a bison attack, always maintain a minimum distance of 25 yards (75 feet) from the animals, and up to 100 yards during mating or calving seasons. Back away slowly if they show warning signs like raised tails or pawing the ground, and never run, as they can sprint up to 40 mph

The Golden Rules for Bison Safety

• Keep your distance: Authorities, such as Yellowstone National Park, advise staying at least 25 yards away from bison. If a bison looks at or acknowledges you, you are already too close and should back away slowly.
• Watch for warning signs: A bison is agitated and about to charge if it raises its tail straight up, paws at the ground, swings its head back and forth, snorts, or makes short bluff charges.
• Never outrun them: Bison are deceptively fast and agile, capable of running up to 40 mph and jumping nearly 6 feet in the air. You cannot outrun them.
• Use physical barriers: If you are approached or charged, immediately put an obstacle like a tree, large boulder, or vehicle between you and the bison.
• Protect your vital areas: If you are attacked and cannot reach safety, drop to the ground and curl into a tight ball, protecting your head and neck with your arms.

Can we get the Darwin Award for the most stupidest people on the planet?

You can't fix stupid!

You can't change minds!

You are completely trapped in stupid.

You are wrapped and emboldened in stupid.

Again, why do white people always treat wild animals like they're domesticated? 

I don't get why some of these people believe it's their mission to disrupt the lives of others. 

This is why Republicans are idiots. Democrats are idiots too but at least some of them have the sense to not engage in stupidity. Not saying all Republicans are idiots, but definitely the ones who voted for President Donald J. Trump are.

I've said it before and I stand by what I say: "Wild animals are......well you know!"

Interacting with uncontacted people is dangerous. Well, they are.... you know!"

If you want to be a thrill seeker, you might want to get life insurance.

Gillum Iced!

Losing that Florida race really drove him into a spiral.

The former Tallahassee mayor Andrew Gillum was arrested again. He is apparently side eying another man and messing with the ice. 

Gillum, the co host of the Native Land Podcast with Angela Rye and Bakari Sellers was arrested on failure to test for drug possession. 

The one-time Democratic nominee for Florida governor back in an Alabama lock up.

According to Baldwin County jail records, Gillum was booked on Aug. 6.

Court documents obtained show Gillum was taken into custody after failing a drug test in court on Thursday.

Documents show Gillum missed a drug screening before his court appearance where he tested positive for methamphetamine.

This comes a nearly a month after he was arrested in Daphne, Alabama on drug charges.

On July 2, Gillum was stopped by Daphne police for erratic driving. Officers reportedly found a glass pipe, rolled marijuana cigarettes and three packs of a substance that tested positive for methamphetamine in the car.

The Baldwin County Jail roster showed he was released on July 3.

Court records show Gillum’s bond was revoked following the failed drug test on Thursday.

This is not Gillum’s first brush with the law.

Gillum served as Tallahassee mayor from 2014 to 2018. He was also the Democratic challenger to Ron DeSantis during the 2018 General Election. He nearly won that election, obtaining 49.2% of the vote compared to the governor’s 49.6%.

Gillum, who ran as a Democrat against DeSantis in the 2018 election, previously made headlines in March 2020 after Miami Beach police said they found him at the Mondrian South Beach Hotel in an “inebriated” state with two other men.

According to a police report, officers found three small clear bags inside the hotel room containing suspected crystal meth, although the men were never charged with a crime.

Gillum released a statement after the 2020 incident, saying he was at a wedding the night before the incident and was drinking, but denied taking any methamphetamines.

Gillum also made headlines in 2023 when he was acquitted of lying to the FBI in a corruption case that also involved illegal use of campaign contributions.

He has not publicly released a statement regarding the latest incident in Alabama, as of Tuesday morning.

He is still married to his wife, R. Jai Gillum. They have three children.

He had numerous affairs with men and women. He came out as bisexual.

The suspect is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.

Again what people do in their private lives is none of my business. Like with Andrew Gillum, Josh Hawley, Eric Swalwell, Graham Platner, Tony Gonzalez, Mitch McConnell Max Miller, Bernie Moreno and others, they are flawed human beings. No one is walking on water.

All of these people have personal issues that became distractions. What folks need to worry about is their paychecks and the stomaches. 

I Saw Josh Kissing Another Man...

Josh Hawley is totally not gay.

There was a show on The CW called Crazy Ex-Girlfriend starring comedian Rachel Bloom.

The show detailed her semi-autobiograhical life. It was a great show that lasted four seasons. Despite being in low ratings, it was an Emmy award winning TV comedy-drama.

This almost remind of the character Josh who Bloom as Rebeeca Bunch's boyfriend of the past. Rebecca depserately tries to sort though her mental health, relationships and moving on from a crush. There were two Joshes. One played by Vincent Rodriguez III and one by David Hull. Here's the twist, Vincent played straight but is actually gay and David played gay but is actually straight.

All talented actors and funny comedians.

Okay. Josh Hawley, the senior Republican senator from Missouri. He won in 2018 against then senator Claire McCaskell. She is now a popular MSNOW contributor and podcaster.

Hawley, an early backer of the MAGA agenda is in President Donald J. Trump's crosshairs.

He is now considered a potential target for a primary challenger. The opps are out with knives. They already going after Michigan Democratic senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed and Texas Democratic senate candidate James Talarico.

Republican have no loyalty.

Only power.

Maybe we should ask Carlos, (not a pseudonym) the busboy who saw you kissing your ‘strong’ date from that ‘agency’ when he was taking out the trash behind the property about your integrity Josh. https://t.co/TYWzcmvRlV

— Chef Joe Gera 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🇮🇹 (@redhotnerd) August 4, 2026

Oh, yeah, this incident was with a male escort.

— Chef Joe Gera 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🇮🇹 (@redhotnerd) August 4, 2026

So Hawley is opposed to the president's support of crypto. His recent crypto opposition centers on his refusal to support the CLARITY Act without changes to protect community banks. He argues that stablecoin yield and rewards programs could cause traditional deposit flight, threatening the ability of rural banks in Missouri to provide local agricultural and small business loans.

Hawley stated that farmers, ranchers, and local bankers in Missouri are flooding his office with concerns, fearing that crypto reward programs (which act like interest on deposits) will lure customers' funds away from community banks.

His opposition, alongside similar concerns raised by Sen. Jerry Moran (R-KS) and unresolved Democratic ethics and disclosure disputes, has stalled momentum for the CLARITY Act as the Senate weighs how to proceed.

So the gay rumors are starting. Long dogged about his sexuality, a famous chef claimed Hawley was kissing a man. 

Chef Joe Gera leveled unverified social media allegations claiming a busboy witnessed Hawley kissing a male escort behind a building.

Did you know Josh and wife Erin have a podcast?

Gera responded to one of Hawley's social media posts on X. He claimed a busboy named "Carlos" saw the senator kissing a date from an "agency" while taking out the trash.

Gera further alleged that Hawley chased the busboy into an elevator and gave him $100 to stay quiet about the encounter.

Rumors also accuse Sen. Bernie Moreno (R-OH) of having sexual encounters with men.

Rep. Max Miller (R-OH) lit fuel to this fire after Moreno and Ohio Republicans called for him to resign.

Consenting adults having sex whether they're married, having an affair, engaging in a relationship of the opposite sex, engaging in a relationship of the same sex, engaging in a relationship with transgender Americans, engaging in a relationship with adult content creators, engaging in a relationship with prostitutes or escorts is not my business.

People, please do not resort to the levels of those who profit off the anger. The anger of right wing Americans in the wake of white nationalist Charlie Kirk's death has sparked a censorship and harassment campaign.

Buc-ee's Fight With Beaver's Mini Mart Becomes National News!

A small Dayton, Ohio area store become a David taking on a Goliath.

The Buc-ee's camp is defending its actions against local stores that have mascots that the company claims is intimidating the iconic Buc-ee's Beaver.

It has a store in Huber Heights, Ohio becoming a landmark. It got John Oliver's attention.

On Hanes Road, in Beavercreek, a prominent suburb of Dayton, Ohio, Beaver's Mini Mart has become embroiled in a trademark lawsuit. Buc-ee's located in Huber Heights about 10 miles away opened in April. The company took three years and a lot of controversy to build its location.

The location is on Ohio State Route 235 at Interstate 70 at the edge of Montgomery County. Buc-ee's plans on opening another location in Mansfield in 2029.

Arch Aplin III, owner of Buc-ee’s, said the matter could have been avoided altogether.

Huber Heights, Ohio, Mayor Jeff Gore spoke with Aplin about the lawsuit and revealed details from that conversation in a Facebook post.

Gore said that he was told that the owner of Beaver Mini Mart seeks to trademark Beavermart at the federal level. Gore said he was told that this trademark filing was made after Buc-ee’s announced its Huber Heights location.

“Mr Aplin told me directly that Buc-ee’s had no issues with Beavermart using the Beaver logo in Beavercreek. He understood and said that makes sense. What Buc-ee’s did not want was a series of Beavermarts popping up across the state or regionally or eventually nationally that violated their trademark.”

Gore said that Aplin has sent emails and mailings to attempt a resolution but reportedly only recently received a response from the Mini Mart.

Buc-ee's is a major attraction in Dayton area.

The lawsuit between the two entities has become a national headline, as many, including Beavercreek community members and Ohio state leaders, have rallied behind the small business. A GoFundMe for the business has raised over $45,000 as of this publication.

The suit argues that the Mini Mart’s beaver, with its “wide eyes and a smile” that also “uses red as a predominant color,” is too similar to Buc-ee’s and could cause confusion.

This is not the first of such claims from the travel center chain, as it has sued several other businesses state and nationwide.

Bryan Schroll, a legal expert at Cedarville University, said most businesses end up settling and changing their logo.

A cash mob was happening Friday in Beavercreek. The community-hosted event urged residents to buy at least $20 worth of items from the Mini Mart, with organizers saying that it brings back a community tradition.
