Day-Old Quick Hits

This was intended as yesterday's quick hits, but news of Larry Kramer's potential criminal charges for perjury and obstruction of justice bumped it.

Although these Quick Hits were baked yesterday, they are still edible. Just put them under a wet paper towel and microwave them for 10 seconds.

Our crazy orange president needs to announce a plan to pack the court, just like Dems keep advocating.

He'll have Dems shouting that court packing is fascism, which will make for useful video clips down the road.

Just post it on Truth Social. Sit back and watch heads explode, with backflips.

I agree. I had intended to say so in the earlier post. The left keeps threatening to pack the court 1, to make the public accept it when they do it, and 2, to in the meantime pressure the "conservative" majority to sell out to the left to forestall them from packing the court.

I say we leverage the court's fear of popular backlash in our own favor. We should campaign to pack the court with six hard-core based conservatives.

And then let Kavanaugh and Roberts and Coney-Barret write decisions to appease us.

And look, the left is going to pack the court. This isn't just bluffing.

Do we have to play the faintheart sucker forever? Can we not act decisively in our own interests, ever?

Kash Patel is working with Congress on legislation to ban birth tourism.

FBI Director Kash Patel on Tuesday confirmed that the Trump administration was working to create legislation to target "birth tourism," the practice of traveling to the U.S. to give birth and secure citizenship for newborns.

Patel made the remarks during an appearance before Senate lawmakers of the Judiciary Committee.

"We are following the federal statutes that we have on the books right now, and we're working with our partners in Congress to draft new legislation to give us new authorities to make sure that we can combat the threat," he said, according to Politico.

Better act quick. Chinese billionaires are basically filling up America with their clones.

A woman has discovered she is carrying a baby for reclusive Chinese gaming billionaire Xu Bo, who has allegedly fathered hundreds of children.

"The agency should've been very transparent from before getting matched ... about who it is that you're having a baby for and what the family is," she told CBS News.

He's creating his own horde of descendants in, as John Kerry would say, in a manner reminiscent of Jengis Khan.

The woman, whom CBS identified as "Judy" to protect her identity, made the comments in one of the first public accounts from a surrogate carrying a child for Xu.

Judy told the station she has repeatedly tried to meet the man for whom she is carrying the baby, but none have taken place. "It leaves me wondering: do I even have a right to know?" she said.

Her involvement with surrogacy began after she came across an AD on Instagram. It offered $120,000 to become a surrogate.

Judy, a single mom raising a seven-year-old, saw it as an opportunity to earn enough money to move into a home of her own.

"I wanted to build a better life for me and my daughter," she said.

Judy eventually signed an agreement with Patriot Conceptions. She said the agency described the intended parent as a single father who wanted to grow his family.

The California Post reached out to Patriot Conceptions about Judy's claims.

In a statement, Patriot Conceptions confirmed that they were the agency for Xu's surrogate Judy. They also clarified that they had "zero affiliation" with a separate Arcadia case featured in CBS's story.

"Conflating our agency with those unrelated arrangements is materially misleading," they said.

Moreover, the agency said that Xu presented himself as a "single father seeking to build a family" and that when revelations over his activities became public, they "recommended terminating the contract" with him.

...

On Weibo, Xu has posted fantasies of his offspring one day marrying Musk's children, according to the Journal.

This superfecudity strategy is insane and should be criminalized. It's dangerous -- when you secret sire a literal Mongolian horde of children, the odds become pretty good that sons will begin marrying sisters, having no idea that they're direct blood relatives.

Spain's socialist bitch Pedro Sanchez wants the cameras to see him shaking hands with an African migrant. He was probably not happy to see the cameras caught him vigorously wiping off his hand after "welcoming" the immigrant.

Karl Rove signals his virtue.

Karl Rove, former adviser to President George W. Bush and longtime Texas GOP political consultant, said he is planning to vote for Democrat Jon Rosenthal, who is running for a seat on the Texas Railroad Commission, which regulates the state's oil and gas production.

The statements come after Republican candidate Bo French published comments on X that critics called racist. The post showed a photo of students celebrating the University of Texas football game on Sunday, many of which appear non-White.

I'm done with this crew.

Speaking of: Super-Conservative (TM) Tom Massie, who is definitely not a flaky closet case, has filed articles of impeachment against Secretary of War Pete Hegseth.

He's vag-mad that the Secretary of War sometimes orders men into, um, war.

The Pentagon came out swinging on Tuesday after Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky., read articles of impeachment against Secretary of War Pete Hegseth over the prosecution of the Iran war.

Massie's articles focused on the continued involvement of U.S. forces in active fighting past the 60-day maximum, after which the White House must seek authorization from Congress. The Iran war began in late February and was subject to a nominal ceasefire for several weeks. The Trump administration previously argued that the official pause in fighting reset the clock.

After Massie's remarks on the House floor, however, the Pentagon embraced a defiant tone, with press secretary Kingsley Wilson telling reporters that "Secretary Hegseth has been a transformative leader for the Department of War. Standards and merit are back, our arsenal is stronger than ever before, and morale and recruitment across every service are at all-time highs."

WTF???!!! This is insane! NBC made Lindsay Clancy juror Kellie Farina re-answer a question - but they left her initial response in the video! This is at the 32:08 mark in the interview, watch:

Interviewer: "Do you think that she should be re-tried?"
Farina: "I would like to see her be re-tried, absolutely."

Then the interviewer looks off screen and gestures to someone. Was that a signal to edit that part out because they didn't like her answer? Then she stumbles through asking the EXACT same question!

Interviewer: "You think, you think, you would like she should be re- re-tried?"

Then they cut to another camera shot for Farina to re-answer the question.

Farina: "I would like him NOT to re-try her."

What is this? They didn't even edit out Farina's initial answer which was that she WOULD like Lindsay to be re-tried! In the span of 10 seconds, you can watch Farina basically say "yes" and "no" to literally the same question.

How can we believe anything these jurors say? If a juror answers a question in a way the media doesn't like they make them re-do the question with a different answer? How many other times has this happened? Fake. News. What a disgrace...

Link to the interview.

Rock stars have weird rules about eating. If it's not a crusade against green M&Ms, it's an Adrian-Monk-like diet consisting of a "sandwich" containing only bread and one type of cheese.

The favorite sandwich of legendary Beatles drummer Ringo Starr is remarkably simple: cheese on bread -- but not just any cheese.

"What is the best sandwich?" late-night television host Stephen Colbert asked Starr during a 2021 appearance on "The Late Show."

"I don't have a lot of them anymore, but cheese," Starr answered. He said he loved cheese before clarifying, "But it has to be goat cheese now."

When Colbert questioned his preference for goat cheese, Starr said, "I don't eat anything from the cow because the molecules are so big. Have you seen a cow? The molecules are so big. And that's why if you drink a glass of milk, you're full. With a goat, it's a good size for our bodies."

Haven't I been trying to tell you guys for 20 years that the molecules in cow's milk are too big?

You big dummies, you never listen to me.
