GOOD LORD: Deranged Trump-Hating Lefty Murders Entire Family. “One man who completely fell for the rhetoric, while blinding himself to the real dangers, was Nephew, and it seems that, horrifically, his family paid the ultimate price. Nephew insanely and apparently thought that his young kids and their mothers were actually better off dead than alive under a Trump presidency. This is the horror that occurs when mental illness combines with extreme leftist propaganda.”

UPDATE (FROM GLENN): The Dem media folks who yammered about “stochastic terrorism” need to own this.

BROS ARE PEOPLE TOO: John Fetterman says Democrats have a man problem:

“We have a challenge. We have our own kind of ‘childless cat ladies’ situation: ‘Bros.’ People refer to these young guys as bros, and clearly that’s not a positive term,” Fetterman told the outlet Semafor in an article published Friday. . . .

Fetterman said the GOP’s branding of Harris as an advocate for transgender rights as an undermining factor in her leadership.

“And it’s undeniable that Republicans created a really powerful message: ‘She’s for they/them, and Trump is for you. That was, I think, our cycle’s version of ‘Where’s the beef?’ or, ‘I knew Jack Kennedy, and you’re no Jack Kennedy,’” he told Semafor. “That kept hitting again and again and again and again for tens of millions of dollars. It had an earworm quality. And I’m not surprised that that resonated.”

The Keystone State lawmaker often credits Trump’s survived assassination attempt in July in Butler, Pa., as a point of connection between the former president and voters.

Flashback: Bros are people, too: Glenn Reynolds.

With some helpful advice.

TRUE: Calling Trump ‘Hitler’ Has Done Permanent Damage to the Moral Realm. “The abuse of language is a fundamental characteristic of the Left. Leftists have done this not only to ‘Hitler,’ ‘Nazi’ and ‘fascist’ but to ‘genocide,’ ‘apartheid,’ ‘racist’ and virtually every other term connoting evil. It started with Stalin calling Trotsky a fascist and it continues to this day.”

BIDENFLATION:

The damage has been done …. Watching a Diners Drive Ins and Dives from 2008 and it’s a completely different world. A bacon cheeseburger was braggadociosly only $4.75. I looked up the website and that burger is $17 today.

OTHER PEOPLE’S MONEY: FEC Filings Show Kamala Harris Team Blew Funds On Hollywood Stars, Private Jets.

Vice President Kamala Harris’ presidential campaign, advised by leftist political strategists, spent a billion dollars centered around labeling former President Trump and a majority of Americans as ‘Hitler’ and ‘Nazis.’ They poured millions into far-left Hollywood stars, elaborate concerts, and private jet travel, yet still ended up $20 million in debt—and got defeated in one of the most historic general election wins in a generation.

X user Autism Capital cited a new report of Federal Election Commission filings that shows the Harris team’s spending trends between August 2023 and October 2024. The data is broken down into monthly spending totals, the top 20 recipients, a distribution of disbursement sizes, spending by type of media, temporal patterns, and trends.

Autism Capital said, “List of the top 500 disbursement recipients from the Kamala campaign. Enjoy, Internet.”

Even Oprah took the money and ran.

Why did Oprah’s production studio receive $1,000,000 disbursement from the Harris campaign?

That’s in the FEC records – clear as day.

Was Oprah paid for the assistance she gave Harris and if so, was that disclosed during that little town hall?

RICK SCOTT’S SURGE, VANCE’S WILD CARD: Sen. Rick Scott (R-Fla.) is surging in his campaign to succeed Mitch McConnell as chairman of the Senate Republican Conference (and thus the Senate Majority Leader in the 119th Congress that opens January 3, 2025).

And there is a whiff of panic among backers of Scott’s rivals, Sen. John Thune (R-SD) and Sen. John Cornyn (R-Texas), as evidenced by a Politico story this morning that quotes unnamed Senate aides claiming a transparently questionable “vote count” as evidence that the Florida Republican has overplayed his hand.
