RETHUGLICANS DROPPING LIKE FLIES

DING DONG  the Lady Lindsey Graham is daid, from a heart attack.
MAGA TEARS I DON’T SUGAR COAT SHIT! 

That’s a big loss…
…for the Military Industrial Complex’s balance sheet.
May the Goddess judge him with perfect justice.
He took so much lobbying money while consistently supporting manufactured wars that enriched the MIC.
May Palantir’s and the defense contractors’ share prices reflect the loss on Monday.

LADY Lindsey Graham went from “Trump will destroy America” to becoming his most pathetic bootlicker — then suddenly dead after shilling for Trump’s illegal Iran war. The ultimate fair-weather whore and American zero.

Poor Mitch is daid
Poor Mitch McConnell is daid
He’s lookin’ oh so peaceful and serene (And serene)
He’s all laid out to rest
With his hands across his chest
His fingernails have never been so clean

They’re trying to run the clock until Aug 3 to keep Thomas Massie from going after that seat.

Why is Mitch McConnell’s wife out of the country while he’s in the hospital? He’s the Senate majority leader. We’re entitled to know.

Chao was in Beijing on June 17 — three days after McConnell’s office says he was hospitalized for an undisclosed condition — for a meeting with Chinese Vice President Han Zheng. Chao finally broke her silence through a spokesperson on Tuesday, July 7, “The Senator’s health did not warrant an immediate return to the US.” well of course that is what any normal Chinese spy would say.
Who remodels their house when their husbands in the ICU?

It could be a complete coincidence, but a large amount of furniture and other items from the small apartment next to Senator McConnell’s home is being loaded into a junk truck. The neighboring property, which appears to be connected to McConnell’s residence, also appears to be undergoing renovations. Chinese spy Elaine Chau is selling. Obvious that The Chinese Spy is selling the house because Mitch is DOA and she’s gotta download all the info she’s been collecting.
Mitch McConnell does not own both properties. However, the neighbors have lived there for roughly as long as he has, which makes this interesting.
Typically, you see a junk truck brought in when an elderly person is downsizing, moving into assisted living or a nursing home, or after a long-term resident passes away. The other common reason is a tenant turnover, which usually happens at the beginning or end of a month.
It could be nothing more than a coincidence, but given the timing, it’s something I’m watching.
TMZ: They are putting in new flooring
If you go to google maps, the small house IS directly behind the McConnell residence. It’s on the same swath of land… Good catch Desiree! Obvious that The Chinese Spy is selling the house because Mitch is DOA and she’s gotta download all the info she’s been collecting.

“…renovations”. Uh huh, yeah, sure, that raises no questions about silly stuff like spycraft, or anything.They’re getting rid of all the Chinese spy equipment that they had in the house Mitch ain’t there he’s dead they got to get rid of all the Chinese spy s***
A good reporter would be asking the DC medical examiner’s office if a death certificate exists for a Mitch McConnell. Also a good reporter would ask the Social Security Administration if a death certificate has been posted for Mitch McConnell.

Why is the Trump administration blocking the investigation into Epstein’s Zorro Ranch in New Mexico? Could it be because Trump is implicated in the Epstein files and there are a whole lot of skeletons buried at the ranch?
Trump was 43 when his wife testified under oath that he ripped hair from her scalp and sexually assaulted her in 1989. She also described a marriage marked by physical abuse.

LINKAt some point, you have to be honest with yourself. There is a pattern of behavior.

  • Trump was 46 when Jill Harth accused him of sexual assault at Mar-a-Lago in 1992.
  • Trump was 51 when he boasted, on the Howard Stern show, about watching Miss Teen USA contestants change their clothes.
  • Trump was 57 when he decided NOT to file a police report after being informed that Jeffrey Epstein had attempted to solicit sexual services from a spa employee in 2003.
  • Trump was 59 when he was recorded making statements in which he boasted about sexually assaulting women.
  • TRUMP buries his x wife the mother of his children on a golf course.

Trump’s next bankruptcy: The U.S. Military
The Pentagon is almost out of money after spending over $100 billion on Trump’s Iran War. Democrats are refusing to fund more of the war.

China announces Petro-Yaun deals with Gulf countries, replacing Petro-Dollar deals
Russia also stopped trading in dollar.

Other than legal accountability the best way to punish the Republican Party for the Trump Era would be to put tax rates back to the pre-Reagan era.
Just send a giant fuck you to our corporate overlords and their political cult.

Trump is paying himself a 2.5% general contractor’s fee on his 400 million dollar ballroom. That’s 10 million dollars.
When will MAGA stop making excuses for his corruption?

Women are
51% of the population but 60% of the poor and
83% of single parents doing 66% of the work Producing 50% of the food but earn just 11% of the payand own only 20% of the land.
All while giving birth to 100% of the population. In case you wondered why we still need feminism.

This is actually a real economic concept called the velocity of money.
Let’s say you get paid $10, you use that $10 to buy lunch from a street vendor, then the street vendor uses that $10 to take a taxi home, then the taxi driver used that $10 to pay his babysitter, next the babysitter uses that $10 to buy groceries, etc.
That one $10 bill produced $50 of economic value. This is really good for the economy and why it’s bad to give rich people more and more money because all rich people do is horde it.
They don’t stimulate the economy multiple times over with it.

Epstein survivor Lara Blume McGee confirms the Justice Department has not released all of the Epstein files. She said there were recordings of crimes from inside of Epstein’s townhouse.
Federal prosecutors secretly signed a non-prosecution agreement with Jeffrey Epstein.
Then they sent his victims letters falsely telling them their “case is currently under investigation.” The deal not to charge him was already done.

Cases of cyclosporiasis, an intestinal infection caused by a parasite, are currently being reported in nearly three dozen states, according to an @ABC News tally. A year ago, CDC made Cyclospora surveillance optional. It had been tracked for 28 years. Today: ~3,000 cases across 31 states, no confirmed source, and CDC’s own count (843) is trailing what states are reporting by thousands.

AI ESSAY Ricardo @Ric_RTP

OpenAI just got OFFICIALLY flagged as a company that might not be able to pay its bills.

S&P Global Ratings just cut Oracle’s long term credit rating from BBB to BBB-.

One more cut and Oracle becomes a JUNK rated company for the first time in its history.

But the reason S&P gave is what’s really interesting here…

They named OpenAI as a “key credit risk” inside the report.

OpenAI is a private company. It carries no credit rating and has never been profitable.

And a ratings agency just took the risk of that company failing and wrote it directly onto the credit file of a public company held inside pension funds and bond funds all over the world.

OpenAI accounts for roughly HALF of Oracle’s remaining performance obligations. That’s the famous $638 billion backlog every bull points to as the reason to own the stock.

Half of the asset is the risk.

And then there’s the maturity trap:

Oracle’s data center leases run 15 to 19 years. Its cloud customer contracts run about 5 years. Oracle disclosed both figures in its own annual report.

So Oracle is signing 19 year obligations to serve 5 year promises made by a customer that has never earned a dollar of profit.

If OpenAI cannot pay, Oracle gets left holding data center leases it may not be able to exit, and may have to re-lease to somebody else on worse terms.

That is the entire downgrade in one sentence.

The numbers underneath:

Oracle spent roughly $55.7 billion on capital projects in fiscal 2026 and posted negative $23.7 billion in free cash flow.

S&P now expects the fiscal 2027 cash flow deficit to widen to around negative $42 billion. That is nearly DOUBLE its previous estimate, and the agency admitted it had underestimated how much Oracle would need to spend.

Oracle plans to raise up to $40 billion in fiscal 2027, including a potential $20 billion share sale that would add roughly 4.8% to its share count.

They literally cannot borrow more without triggering the next downgrade, so shareholders are being diluted to protect the bondholders.

And the funny part is that on the day of the downgrade, Oracle’s stock went UP 2.65%.

But on that same day, the spread on Oracle’s BONDS widened.

Equity investors looked at the $638 billion backlog and bought. Credit investors looked at the identical company and demanded to be paid more for the risk of holding it.

Credit investors are the ones whose entire job is to price what goes wrong, so they just repriced Oracle.

For context, Microsoft is rated AAA, Alphabet is AA+, and Amazon is AA. Oracle is chasing the same AI contracts from seven to nine notches further down the ladder.

The day after the downgrade, the UK named Oracle, alongside three other cloud providers, a critical third party to the British financial system. Supervision by the Bank of England begins July 13.

Oracle is the only one of those four sitting one notch above junk.

Now follow the chain:

OpenAI has never made a profit. OpenAI is half of Oracle’s backlog. Oracle is one downgrade from junk. Oracle is now formally load bearing infrastructure for British banks.

The business risk of an unprofitable private startup has traveled through a corporate balance sheet and landed inside the supervisory perimeter of a central bank.

Nobody designed that. It happened one contract at a time.

And the demand IS real. Oracle’s cloud infrastructure revenue grew 93% last quarter.

If this buildout works, it becomes one of the great corporate reinventions in history.

But the whole structure now rests on one question that no rating agency, no bank and no regulator can answer:

Can OpenAI pay its bills?

A nonprofit built a free VPN

A nonprofit built a free VPN that works without an email, password, or credit card. It’s called RiseupVPN. You just need to install it and tap connect. Your internet provider now sees one encrypted tunnel to Riseup instead of every website you open. Sites see the VPN’s address instead of yours. Riseup says it records the day someone connects, but not their IP address or DNS requests. It also blocks known third-party advertisers and behavior trackers at the network level. The business model is the weird part. There isn’t one. RiseupVPN is funded entirely by donations. No paid tier waiting to unlock the useful features. No account database holding your email. No ad company paying to watch what you do. The apps are built on Bitmask, an open-source VPN codebase designed for censored environments. It runs on Windows, macOS, Linux, and Android. A VPN is not an invisibility cloak. It cannot clean malware from your laptop or hide information you type into a website. But RiseupVPN solves the basic problem cleanly. It gives anyone an encrypted route to the internet without turning privacy into another monthly bill.

No Justice No Peace
When Corrupt Politicians Start Going To Jail, Then We Can Start Trusting The Government Again.

On the Good Foot
In 1951, a 66 year old Swedish farmer named Gustaf Håkansson decided he wanted to compete in Sweden’s toughest cycling race, the Sverigeloppet, a grueling 1,764 kilometer event that stretched across the country. Race organizers refused to let him join. They believed he was simply too old to handle the physical demands of such an exhausting competition. But Håkansson had no intention of turning back.
Instead of giving up, he lined up anyway and rode the entire route unofficially. While the official racers stopped to rest and sleep along the way, Håkansson kept pedaling. He rode through the night with a small headlamp on his bicycle, often cycling for days with barely any sleep. His determination quickly turned him into a sensation among spectators, who began calling him “Stålfarfar,” meaning “Steel Grandpa.”
By the time the race ended, something remarkable had happened. The man who had been rejected for being too old had reached the finish line ahead of every single official competitor. Though his ride did not count in the official standings, his achievement captured national attention and turned him into a folk hero in Sweden. What began as a refusal ended as one of the most memorable endurance stories in cycling history.

Eliminate Federal Income Taxes

MAGA billionaire donors are about to MELT DOWN as Senator Mark Kelly unveils a plan to ELIMINATE federal income tax for Americans earning under $46,000 – and slash taxes up to $161,000.
And here’s what rich Republican donors don’t want you to see:
It’s fully paid for by people making over $1 million a year.
Not working families.
Not the middle class.
The millionaires and billionaires sitting on more wealth than they could ever spend.
Kelly laid it out to CTA Media Network’s Joe Gallina:
“billionaires…have more money than they… can spend in multiple lifetimes while we have people (who) can’t afford a place to live and can’t send their kids to college and never go on vacation.
It’s just not right.”
This isn’t a tweak.
This game-changing bill takes a sledgehammer to a broken system – and forces a reckoning with the affordability crisis Donald Trump made worse.

Sen. Mark Kelly has hit upon the Holy Grail — being able to afford your taxes.
This weighs on every American’s mind 24/7.
If the billionaire class had to pay their fair share, something they’ve NEVER done, the rest of us can live a more affordable life.
YES, Mark Kelly!

Jeff Bezos is raising $100 Billion to buy factories and run them with AI. He did the same thing to retail 30 years ago, by launching Amazon. Now he’s doing it to physical manufacturing. His own startup, Project Prometheus, already funded with $6.2B, will be the AI engine behind these factories.

AI INDUSTRY IS FACING A SHORTAGE OF A CRITICAL ELEMENT IT CANNOT REPLACE.

This is huge evidence of the AI bubble.
$450 billion vanished and produced nothing in the real economy.
“Massive investment in AI contributed basically zero to US economic growth last year,” per Goldman Sachs

It does appear to be enabling at least partial replacement of entry level workers. Those in their early 20s are looking at a jobs market that looks like the Great Recession. Employers are looking to use AI before hiring. We’re burning society to the ground to make 1/2 a dozen people unfathomably rich. The same 10 tech companies have been sending each other the same trillion dollars back and forth for the last 10 years. None of them are worth but a fraction of their current valuations.
Jan Hatzius is finally saying the quiet part out loud. We’re spending $700B on chips and data centers, but since most of that hardware is imported from Taiwan and Korea, it’s boosting their GDP, not ours. It’s essentially a massive wealth transfer to TSMC and Samsung while US productivity sits at a standstill. The ‘AI Boom’ looks more like a Capex black hole right now.

EPSTEIN

– The FBI is aware that at least 1,200 girls were sexually assaulted by Jeffrey Epstein and his associates.
– One of these associates is currently in the Oval Office

BREAKING: Russia reportedly floated a proposal to the U.S. offering to stop sharing intelligence with Iran if Washington agreed to halt its own intelligence support for Ukraine.
Russia is our enemy.

Senator Jacky Rosen is calling on Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick to release his flight logs from 2005 to 2019. That his connections to Jeffrey Epstein lasted far longer than he previously stated and he’s attempting to mislead the American people and Congress.

Jay Clayton, who was in charge of DOJ Epstein redactions, holds between $1.5 million and $6 million worth of Apollo Global Management stock. Leon Black was under investigation by SDNY in 2023. Clayton is now the top prosecutor for that office.

Leon Black left Apollo, the company he helped start, in 2021. Jay Clayton was also the independent investigator hired by Apollo to determine if Black engaged in malfeasance. Clayton determined there was none.

Absolute insanity. The FBI raided Epstein’s mansion, cracked open his safe, found diamonds and hard drives, and then LEFT them there due to a warrant issue. When they returned, the safe was empty. Epstein’s accountant literally packed it all in suitcases and took it home!
The man who helped build Epstein’s financial structure ended up controlling his estate.
That’s not a coincidence. It’s a pattern. The most revealing part of this story isn’t what happened while Epstein was alive.
It’s who was trusted to handle everything after he was gone.
There were only two of them: Darren Indyke is one of them.

Rep. Melanie Stansbury @Rep_Stansbury
NM has reopened an investigation into Zorro Ranch and none other than Epstein’s attorney, who we deposed today—helped manage the property.
So how is it—that Zorro Ranch was never served a warrant and Epstein’s own lawyer claims they did not know DOJ asked NM to drop its investigation?
No one is talking. Files are missing. And the coverup continues.

From Elon Musk dating the daughter of a Russian spy (and Epstein honeypot) to her dad’s recent work in Iran and Crimea, this story is mind-boggling all around…. “leaked Russian records reveal that Russia’s Ministry of Internal Affairs issued her a passport under a fictitious name. Pozhidaeva now lives in California.”

JES STALEY’S WIFE FILES DIVORCE AMID EPSTEIN FALLOUT
