The Senate Judiciary Committee voted in favor of Trump lawyer Emil Bove's appointment to the Third Circuit Court of Appeals, and confirmed Jean Pirro as US Attorney for DC, as rabidly feminine Democrats walked out in more girlish attention-seeking.
Note these now to go to the full Senate for a vote. But a committee okay usually means the full Senate will vote in favor.
The Senate Judiciary Committee on Thursday approved the nominations of former Trump attorney Emil Bove to the Third Circuit Court of Appeals and Jeanine Pirro to the U.S. attorney's office for Washington, D.C., as Democrats walked out.
Bove, who is the U.S. principal associate deputy attorney general, was approved by the committee for the judgeship nomination amid 900 former and current Department of Justice lawyers urging lawmakers to reject the nomination, The Hill news outlet reported.
Among the concerns is a DOJ whistleblower allegation that Bove urged agency lawyers to defy a court order regarding the Trump administration's controversial decision in March to deport El Salvadoran migrant Kilmar Abrego Garcia.
The Fiercely Heterosexual Gay Man Cory "Thpartacush" Booker was really outraged.
Sen. Cory Booker, D-N.J., and the rest of his Democratic colleagues walked out after Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley cut off requests for continued debate and didn't let all Democrats speak on the Bove nomination.
"You are a good man," Booker said to Grassley. "You are a decent man, why are you doing this? What is Donald Trump saying to you that are making you do something which is violating the decorum of this committee, the rules of this committee, the decency and the respect that we have each other to at least hear each other out?"
"This is unjust. This is wrong. It is the further deterioration of this committee's integrity with a person like this. What are you afraid of?"
Scott Jennings: I'll run for Mitch McConnell's old Senate seat in 2026 if Trump wants me to.
CNN political contributor Scott Jennings suggested that he may run for Sen. Mitch McConnell's seat if President Trump asks him.
When asked on Real America's Voice on Wednesday if he was considering running for McConnell's Senate seat next year since the senator isn't seeking reelection, Jennings said, "Yeah, I haven't made any announcements about that," Mediaite reported.
"There's three people in the race, I know them all, like them all, I've been in and out of their lives in varying degrees over the years. I've supported them all in various endeavors, so I'm confident the seat will remain Republican."
Rep. Andy Barr, R-Ky., former Kentucky Attorney General Daniel Cameron, and businessman Nate Morris are all running for McConnell's Senate seat.
"I do think politics is a team sport, and I think Trump's the head coach," also said Jennings, who has for months teased a run. "And eventually he's gonna weigh in on this, and my political advice would be to anybody, you know, if he calls a play, we're gonna have to run it. I wouldn't want to run against the president in Kentucky. So, I don't really have any announcement about it at the moment."
An immigrant admitted to attempting to have sex with an underaged (15 year old) girl.
This is a crime. Even in Canada, it's still a crime.
For some people.
Because a Canadian judge decided not to convict this statutory rapist because doing so might put his immigration status in jeopardy.
So come to Canada, foreign pedophiles! Canada will give you preferable treatment so you can keep on molesting children while working on that visa!

Indian man in Canada who tried paying for s*x from a 15-year-old gets a conditional discharge simply because he's an immigrant and a conviction would "delay his citizenship."
Utter insanity. Canada is a joke.
According to Justice Paul Thomas O'Marra, treating 30-year-old Akashkumar Khant like a Canadian citizen is unfair because the conviction would unfairly impact his life.
"Mr. Khant is a permanent resident seeking Canadian citizenship and professional licensing," said O'Marra.
"A conviction would not only delay his citizenship by four years but could also prevent him from sponsoring his wife and obtaining his engineering licence."
"These immigration and professional consequences are far more severe than those faced by (an offender in a similar previous case), who was a Canadian citizen with no such vulnerabilities."
"Courts have recognized that such consequences can justify a more lenient sentence, including a discharge."
"A conviction would lead to severe collateral consequences, such as jeopardizing his immigration status, delaying his citizenship, and preventing him from sponsoring his wife, which would likely result in their separation."
"These consequences would be disproportionate to the offence and would undermine his rehabilitative progress."
Communist pro-jihadism candidate for mayor Zohran Mamdani is responding to pressure about his support of "globalizing the intifada," meaning, bringing Muslims' endless wars on everyone to America (and everywhere else).
Here's his vow: He'll no longer say the words "globalize the intifada."
He also vows, however, to keep on supporting globalizing the intifada, just using slightly different words.
And he's only promising to stop using the words "globalize the intifada" through election season. After that, he's back to calling for the everlasting Islamic war on the world.
"It could have been a lot worse," said one attendee at a summit between Big Apple business leaders and Democrat mayoral nominee Zohran Mamdani. It could also have gone a lot better, it seems.
After an hour, though, the meeting did achieve one thing. Mamdani agreed to "discourage" the use of the phrase "globalize the intifada," at least through the election.
Trump couldn't get cuts for taxpayer spending on the genital mutilation of children included in the rescission package, but RFKJr. is pushing a rule that will end the use of Medicare and Medicaid funds for this barbarity.
From the National Review:
The Department of Health and Human Services will soon begin the rule-making process to prohibit the federal government from directly funding sex-trait modifications for minors through Medicaid and the Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP), National Review has learned.
The White House is in "the final stage of review for a new rule that would make it a condition of hospitals participating in Medicare or Medicaid that they not provide sex trait modifications to minors," according to an administration official. The prohibition will apply to hospitals that provide puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, and gender-transition surgeries to minors.
The groundbreaking decision by the White House to use the power of the executive to ban federally funded gender-transition services for minors follows an unsuccessful attempt by congressional Republicans to ban federal funding for such practices through the budget reconciliation process. The Senate parliamentarian ruled that the legislative language included in the "One Big Beautiful Bill Act" did not clear the Byrd rule, prompting GOP lawmakers to spike the language from the final bill that passed earlier this month.
The Obamas staged a cringey little skit to dispel rumors that they've separated.
Michelle and Barack Obama finally addressed the divorce rumors that have been swirling for months, but not in a way that put anything to rest. Instead, the former first couple leaned into awkward banter and overly scripted sentimentality on Michelle's "IMO" podcast with her brother Craig Robinson, in what came off as a carefully orchestrated PR effort to remind the world that they're still a "happy couple."
From the start, the conversation felt more like damage control than casual family talk. "The rumor mill. It's my husband, y'all," Michelle said with a forced laugh, as Barack chimed in, "She took me back." Michelle shot back, "Now don't start," trying to keep the mood light. But the elephant in the room had already made itself known.
Robinson, acting as the bemused observer, leaned into the public speculation: "It's so nice to have you both in the same room together." Michelle responded, "I know, 'cause when we aren't, folks think we're divorced." No denial. Just a chuckle and a wink, as if simply appearing on camera together was enough to erase months of public scrutiny.
Then came the real giveaway: Craig's story from a trip to Wichita, Kansas. "You know, this podcast has made me quite popular," he said, adding that people come up to him all the time, which is hilarious since the podcast is officially a flop.
I'm unconvinced.
Speaking of rich jagoffs cheating on their spouses:
Andy Byron is the CEO of a company called "Astronomer." People online claim he's a billionaire. I don't know.
Apparently he was having an affair with his head of, of course, Human Resources, because Human Resources are destroyers of everything.
The cheating couple went to a Coldplay concert and Chris Martin posted video of them on the "kiss cam." Their chagrined reaction suggested to Martin that they were cheaters, which he went right ahead on to say.
Byron's wife dropped her married name from her social media profiles. Byron posted this snarkily-defiant non-apology:
So I guess he's pretending he wasn't embracing a woman who is not his wife? We'll have to see how his "It Wasn't Me" strategy pays off, Cotton.
Ex-CNN Thumb Chris Cillizza and Bulwark sissy Jonathan V. Last say that Trump is a "chaotic evil" Dungeons and Dragons character and Mark Cuban is "lawful good."
