    IN POLITICAL NEWS 1) Congress reopened the gubment, and President Trump signed the bill. The DemoKKKrats were getting crushed on this issue, regardless of what some of the Hoax Polls said. Many want to boot SpewMore as the Minority leader. Then, having reopened the government, DHS Secretary Kristi Noem gave out $10,000 bonus checks to Air Traffic Controllers who stayed on the job. This is the way. But Secretary of Transportation Sean Duffy says it may be a while before air travel is restored after the SpewMore Shutdown. And another shutdown is looming in just 10 weeks, because the DemoKKKrats cannot act like civil human beings, only rabid anti-Trump terrorgerbils. 2) The second biggest story was that after adding AZ's new Congresswoman (D) Grijalva, the House voted to release thousands of Epstein emails, which again showed Trump had never been to Epstein Island, had an arms-length relationship with the Primary Panderer Pedophile. This is working out to be one of Trump's most genius moves ever. Now DemoKKKrats are voting to make public documents that incriminate the Party of Terror. In 40 years of following politics I've never seen either party this stupid. Speaker Johnson says that the House may vote this week to compel the DOJ to release everything Epstein, in the biggest "Don't throw me in the briar patch" move in history. Oh, and remember "no tax on tips?" Out of touch DemoKKKrats now attacking that. In NV. Lesse how that works out for ya. 3) This is actually a pretty big deal. Last week the British Bolshevik Conclave (BBC) had to withdraw a documentary about President Trump that it produced that lied by stitching together multiple speech segments to make it appear that Trump told January 6 Patriot Day supporters to get all jiggy. Trump's lawyers, in the Hoax News media's vernacular, "pounced" and promised swift legal action. BBC apologized (kinda, claiming it was unintentional, but two BBC "leaders" resigned and promised not to re-air the program. Resignations, promises, and apologies sure seem to scream GUILTY to me. Initially, the BBC lawyers offered no compensation with their apology, but as lawyer Jeff Childers notes in his daily "Coffee & Covid" column, this is almost certainly the first low-ball (or zero ball) offer because they know they are going to have to pay, a lot. Trump has already humbled CBS, CNN, ABC and many others and is seeking $1 billion. This settlement should pretty well ensure a Trump Presidential Library in all 57 states. But the schluzz from the English bog marshes hadn't even settled when another Brit outlet was found to have doctored another Trump speech. So we probably ought to run a poll at this point: Which territory of Mediocre Britain should Trump demand next? a) Wales b) Scotland c) Caribbean Islands d) a knighthood for Trump? 4) Fetterman Massacre, the Human Ox, was hospitalized after a fall related to his heart issues. He had some injuries to his face. You know me. I despise DemoKKKrats, but I get the feeling Oxie is indeed searching for truth, that in many ways he really regrets being a DemoKKKrat. I will pray for his full recovery, even if he has to retire and be replaced with some reptilian Leninist, so that he may be with his kids. I urge you all to do so as well. 5) Well, well. A Capitol Hill police officer is a forensic match for the J6 Patriot Day Pipe Bomber. 6) Just the latest goofball bat-guano thinking from Commie Mamdani: have social workers accompany the po-po on calls. When seconds to respond matter, can you imagine what will happen when police and social workers have to hash out who deals with a crazy, fentanyl-laced, violent criminal? "This is my jurisdiction." "No, you have to wait for me to ask him about his childhood." Except this program was already launched under Eric the Red, and it's already failing. 7) Politico is very concerned that the gubment shutdown that pretty much killed the corpse of Obamacare now will allow Trump to introduce his own health care plan. Everyone knows that prices rose and access closed under Obamacare. Trump's team has virtually no leaks so they only know that Trump is planning to act, but not how. Once again, without leaks, the DemoKKKrats cannot mount any kind of "kill-the-baby-in-the-crib" strategy. Boy does the Hoax News media hate that. Sen. Rick Scott (FL) said the payments would be sent to individuals, not insurance companies, in a sort of Health Savings Account structure. This has always been the best approach, but it can't be done on top of Obamacare, only by replacing it. And think of this: if such a program is created, it would be the final stake in the heart of McTurd's legacy. 8) Speaking of corpses, Ag Sec Brook Rollins will make all recipients reapply afresh after 5,000 dead and 500,000 duplicates were found on the rolls. Oh, and Trump has moved to completely shut down the Consumer Finance Protection Board after a massive scandal was discovered in its activities. 9) Count Dooku (Jack Smith) ...

    IN POLITICAL NEWS 1) As expected, DemoKKKrats won big in the two blue states (governors in NJ and VA) and in New Kabul, where there was record turnout to elect an Islamacist mayor. There are plenty of takeaways, but the biggest one remains voter registration. It is a real thing. In VA, though, candidate quality was key, as you cannot run someone who in any way has distanced themselves from MAGA. Seth Keshel predicted this precisely; I thought NJ would be a tossup. One of the measures in TX banned noncitizens from voting in state elections. And, in CA, as I predicted, their Prop 50 to redistrict the state and probably add five more D House seats, passed easily. More than ever, these results underscore the importance of getting voters registered. But they also repeated the MIDTERM MANTRA that for the party out of power in the midterms, it's easier. Nevertheless, DemoKKKrats in their Battle of the Bulge counteroffensive showed they can still get turnout: there was record turnout in VA and NYC. Oh, and this little report about the Amazing Zohran surfaced, but did not good: One of his leading backers is a group with "deep ties" to terrorists. Well, I warned ya. Anyway, it already has started as a major restaurant chain will now relocate from NYC to FL.This morning, realtors' phones were ringing off the hook from wealthy people looking to scurry from New Kabul. And this analyst thinks the election in the long run will be a disaster for DemoKKKrats who shoved the more extreme candidates to the fore. 2) The SpewMore Shutdown will continue and now looks like it might be the longest shutdown in history, and I'm here to cheer it on. However, some are saying the election results may end the shutdown because DemoKKKrats don't need it as an issue. And today, it looks as though Trump will ignore court rulings and says he can't pay SNAP. In reality, he is slapping them in the face for being unable to lay out a clear judicial guideline for what funds he can, and can't pay. Meanwhile some 700,000 ineligible food stamp recipients have been removed. In NV, DemoKKKrat Sen. Jackie Rosen votes to keep gubment closed despite a crash in NV tourism. 3) WI, which always has close elections, shows 41,000 voter "discrepancies." In 2020, Rutabaga "won" by just 20,000 votes. 4) Rutabaga's spokespooge, Karine Jean-Taylor, wrote a memoir so bad that it's causing liberals to question DEI hires. 5) Now we know that the Capitol Police repeatedly used violent force on Patriot Day (J6) protesters. 6) That Halloween terror plot in MI thwarted by the FBI involved elements of ISIS and the homosexual/transoid crew. 7) The FBI has arrested two in connection to the Harvard medical building explosion. 8) The FBI also is looking at those "burn bags" that were never burned with an eye toward evidence related to James Scrotumtoter Comey. 9) Dick Cheney, who managed to be hated by both left and right, dead at 84. Trump, who lambasted him during the campaign, has been respectfully silent. 10) Good. An appeals court said that FL may indeed ban ChiCom citizens from buying land. 11) There is a new scandal brewing with Gov. Hock-a-Lugie in NY over shortchanging a hospital that mostly deals with Medicare by billions of dollars in "matching" funds. 12) A UPS plane, on fire as it started to take off, exploded in Kentucky, killing seven and injuring 11. 13) In crime-riddled Seattle, a robber bit off an 88-year-old woman's finger when he attacked her outside her home. Don't worry. You can probably elect Amazing Zohran who will institute Sharia Law there and fix everything. IN ILLEGAL CRIMINAL ALIEN NEWS 14) Voters in three blue states kept "sanctuary" policies alive. IN CULTURAL NEWS 15) Almost 2/3 of Gen Zers want a classic car cuz new ones are boring (and hellaciously expensive to repair). 16) Shocked, I tell ya. A Wikipedia editor with a confidential data access card was being paid to write entries. Again, I'd be surprised if the majority of "editors" weren't being paid. IN ECONOMIC NEWS 17) Denny's Restaurant chain will go private in a $620 million deal. 18) Two separate surveys point in different directions for manufacturing, but neither shows sharp changes. Meanwhile, ADP shows 42,000 new jobs being added, beating expectations. 19) The deportations are starting to affect the economy of Benghazi-by-the-Lake. 20) Multifamily dwelling delinquencies have soared. 21) Net revenues from tariffs jumped to over $32 billion in October alone. 22) Scott Bessent says the U.S. is already in a housing recession and calls for lower interest rates. 23) Michael Burry, famed for the "Big Short" and an investor who often goes against the grain, has bet against AI. 24) A new report from IntelStor says that the U.S. wind fleet is about to hit $2.92 in blade maintenance this year alone. 25) EV maker Stellantis has recalled 375,000 cars over fire risk and says drivers should park outside. 26) American Airlines has announced management cuts at its ...

    IN POLITICAL NEWS 1) he fed food stamp program has shut down (a few loopholes remain), so food stamps are on hold for now. Let's see how quickly DemoKKKrats move now. 2) Federal and local law enforcement in Memphis have arrested 1,700 for child trafficking and drugs, freeing 80 kids. 3) A new poll of working-class voters shows they think the DemoKKKrat Party is "woke, weak, and out of touch." And terroristic. Don't forget that, guys. 4) Chris Bray reviews the whines of people like FrenchFry (David French) who think that Trump's military strikes on drug runners is unprecedented. Er, no. Bray shows it has been fairly common, going back to Reagan in 1986. 5) Kollyfornia lurched some 9,000 voter registrations to the Ds last month after a year's worth of rightward tilt. This is DemoKKKrats freaking about the redistricting and trying to get Prop 50 passed. Meanwhile, in his predictions for tomorrow, Seth Keshel has a D sweep in NJ, VA races, and, of course, New Kabul, but all well under the margins they normally would be in an off year. In short, this actually lines up for a GOP win in 2026. 6) A Yavapai Co. (AZ) judge resigned after being caught drunk peeing on a public sidewalk 7) A Harvard building was rocked by what police say was an "intentional" explosion. What, the Weathermen are back after all these years? 8) A North Texas bust revealed thousands of stolen Legos. Yep. that's the headline. 9) Founder of one of the earliest conservative websites, www.freerepublic.com , Jim Robinson, has died at age 79. FR came into its own by being one of the few internet sites to run with the Drudge Report and its stories on Clinton's scandals. 10) Nearly a million residents of New Kabul (NYC) are ready to leave the city if the Amazing Zohran becomes mayor. Here is where many of the businesses are headed. 11) At an event with Megan Kelly, Glenn Beck, and Mark Halperin, J.D. Vance had overwhelming support as the next GOP presidential candidate. IN ILLEGAL CRIMINAL ALIEN NEWS 12) Baltimore County, MD has struck a deal with ICE/DOJ and will assist in removing the illegal criminal invaders. 13) Meanwhile, the feds have prevented over 6,500 known suspected terrorists from entering the country. IN CULTURAL NEWS 14) The share of "nones" (no religious affiliation), Catholics, and evangelicals have hit a plateau. But mainline churches continue to decline and black Protestant churches are fading fast. Because of da youts, the "nones" are going to grow barring a new "Great Awakening." IN TRANSOID NEWS 15) Pro soccer player Elizabeth Eddy wrote a column advocating sex testing for women's pro soccer and has been attacked for it as a "racist." Really? So transoids are of a certain race? IN ECONOMIC NEWS 16) Commercial real estate loan delinquencies rose in October. 17) Mortgage rates fell a little and demand for mortgages rose 7%. 18) Speaking of falling, EV sales went off a cliff after the subsidy wagon left town. 19) The flabbergasted Wall Street Urinal just can't figure out how Trump's tariffs are working with no inflation at all. 20) Trump says his new rare earth mineral program will end ChiCom dependency in 18 months. 21) Top airline CEOs have joined the teamsters union in demanding the DemoKKKrats end the shutdown. IN INTERNATIONAL NEWS 22) Mediocre Britain has a stabbing epidemic. 23) This author asks if, 50 years later, we won the Veetnam War, arguing that the Vietnamese are making profound conceptual changes, replacing Marxism-Leninism with Truong Ton Dan Toc, or “Vietnamese nationalism.” 24) First, Oslo, Norway bought 300 ChiCom-made electric busses then learned the ChiComs can turn them off any time they want to. Now Norway has figured that out. 25) Denmark has aborted nearly every Down Syndrome baby it can find. 26)Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said Chy-na made a "real mistake" with the rare earth mineral threat, because they woke everyone up. IN ENTERTAINMENT NEWS 27) Hollywood movie sales are absolutely sucking. I mean, horrible. I'm beginning to think that everything rides on Avengers: Doomsday. Marvel/Disney does have a small chance here to reboot interest that has almost disappeared, but the writing will have to be spectacular because they cannot reboot a bunch of heroes as villains and think it will work. 28) In the garden city of New Azteca (LA) a Crips member and music executive, Eugene "Big U" Henley was killed on Halloween. As far as I know, he was no relation to the Eagles Don Henley. 29) The kicker for the Jacksonville Jaguars hit a record 68-yard field goal in a win over the hapless Las Vegas Raiders. I think we'll see a 70 yarder this year, and won't be surprised if it's Brian Aubrey of Dallas. 30) The Los Angeles Dodgers, with their superstar Shohei Ohtani, won the World Series over the Toronto Blue Jays as Blue Jay fans complained. IN MEDICAL NEWS 31) Obesity rates have fallen. No doubt this is part Ozempic and part RFK's slow institution of healthier food ...
