Some Fries With Your Stupid? Men in in red ties in front, and The Orange 🤡 on a platform with his rictus grin and thumbs-up as the Skirts (who allegedly being celebrated) are out of focus and behind the dudes. Sounds about standard for this Administration of misogynists. Only surprised the boys are being served Mickey-Ds by the chicks.

Warsh Drank The Cult Aid The Pod Save Whatevs boys email thingie reminds us that the Fed Chair confirmation hearing was yesterday: Kevin Warsh, Trump’s nominee to be the next Fed chair, was grilled by senators on Tuesday and pledged to be “strictly independent” if confirmed. Warsh also testified that Trump had “never asked me to predetermine, commit, fix, decide on any interest rate in any of our discussions, nor would I ever agree to do so.” But Trump appears to have other expectations, telling CNBC Tuesday morning he will be disappointed if Warsh doesn’t immediately cut rates.

About Last Night… ETTD, part infinity. The initiative to gerrymander VA (“We used to call it Virgin for short, but not for long!”) has barely passed, and so now the recriminations have started: "After a narrow loss in Virginia, Republicans are pointing fingers as President Donald Trump’s national gerrymandering fight slips into a stalemate. Multiple Republicans say the party should’ve spent much more, much earlier to have a better shot at blocking Democrats’ Virginia map, which could give the party as many as four more House seats.

Virginia Is For Voters Virgins (autocorrect sometime makes me laugh and I keep it) head to the polls today to vote on whether or not to allow the Democratic-controlled state to (temporarily) redraw its congressional districts ahead of the November midterms. If approved, Team Evil could lose up to four seats in the House.  So it is a big deal and Pornhub Moses only has a one-vote majority.

The media blackout of Jared Kushner’s historic, ongoing corruption scandal As Trump's son-in-law returns to Pakistan for more talks with Iran, major news outlets are largely ignoring an egregious conflict of interest.

"The WSJ, The AP, CNN Wire, The New York Post, The Chicago Tribune, The Boston Globe, and The Los Angeles Times collectively published dozens of articles about Kushner’s diplomatic role in the war with Iran but never mentioned the conflict."

‘You can’t stop the signal, Mal.’ As we noted over the weekend, the lesson learned from Hungary was not to focus (too much) on Orbán, but to focus on corruption. Senator Ossoff has been there for months, ahead of the rest of us. That’s a real gift. This is pitch-perfect and a metaphor everyone can grasp (though “coins” might be antiquated to the callous Yutes of Today): That's the signal, the rest is noise.
