Kash Patel got some bad news, as a federal judge threw out his lawsuit against legal commentator Frank Figliuzzi.
Patel sued Figliuzzi, himself a former FBI official for claiming that Patel has "been visible at nightclubs far more than he has been on the seventh floor of the Hoover building"
If a thief stole $10,000, would you let him keep $4,000 for his efforts?

RFK Jr: "I have nothing to do with the measles outbreak here"
Rep. Jamie Raskin is demanding that Kash Patel submit to an alcohol abuse screening:
"For the sake of our own security, we need to know, for example, 'how many drinks containing alcohol do you have on a typical day when you are drinking'?"
Jumping off the gravy train that's made him wealthy, just before it crashes.
VAN HOLLEN: What you've done is prove a windfall to very wealthy people who don't pay taxes
BESSENT: Why would I do that? What's your theory of the case?
VAN HOLLEN: Because this administration time after time has tiled the tax code in favor of very wealthy people
There is no "different way of calculating percentages." That's not a 600% reduction. Trump's a fucking moron and his gross toadies cover that up constantly.
Ukraine is building a bigger deep-strike drone machine — middle- and deep-strike operations both scaling up, more units from May
The drone forces already run more than 100,000 combat sorties a month. Now its commander is formally expanding the tiers that reach deepest into Russian territory
Trump is so weak that he's reverting to terrorizing a country hoping to get what he wants. Hey, buddy ... it's not gonna work. They've got the Strait of Hormuz ... and you didn't even anticipate that. Godalmighty.
WARREN: So those massive discounts--
RFK Jr: Massive. 600 percent
WARREN: 600 percent! They can pay hundreds of dollars on TrumpRx or they can get it for $12 as Costco
“Anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that ‘my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.”

BENNET: Do you agree that 89% of children who died from flu were unvaccinated?
RFK Jr: I don't know the exact number
BENNET: That is the exact number, Secretary Kennedy
RFK Jr: *death growls*
BENNET: You took down the HHS communications promoting the flu vaccine. Do you regret that?
BENNET: You said the outbreak has nothing to do. You're the head of the HHS!
RFK Jr: I have no jurisdiction over other countries
BENNET: I agree. But everybody here believes the United States ought to be leading in these matters. That's why we're so discouraged by your cuts to NIH.
HASSAN: Does the president know about your self-promoting videos using official HHS resources?
RFK Jr: I didn't know about a number of those videos. I just happened to not see them.
HASSAN: So you don't know how your own team is managing official resources?
'Learn from Ukraine or defense money will be wasted'
The former Finnish prime minister told Euronews that she "cannot rule out" that Russia is preparing for war with the rest of Europe, and that the bloc is "as dependent on Ukrainian help as Ukraine is on EU support".
The European Union has formally launched the internal process to unblock the €90 billion loan for Ukraine and the 20th package of sanctions against Russia, bringing the standoff between Budapest and Kyiv closer to an end after months of intrigue.

Trump Showers Health Care Crooks With Love
His extensive pardons to health care executives convicted of various crimes show that his ‘war on fraud’ in blue states has nothing to do with fraud.
In February 1777, General George Washington ordered the first mass immunization campaign in American history by mandating that his troops be inoculated against smallpox. He protected the Continental Army from an epidemic that was deadlier than British forces.
249 years later, we have this idiot.

MAFA = Make America Fluish Again
That's the problem. Precious few of the Trump administration read books or attempt to expand their knowledge of the world. They certainly don't know history. And people are dying because of it.
Make America Fluish Again = MAFA
I'm getting John Fetterman vibes from this guy.
