Scott Bessent: I Had to Move to a Miliatry Base Because the IRGC Is Sending Assassins to Kill Me At My Home Because Treasonous "Journalists" at the Wall Street Journal Showed Them Exactly Where I Live
—Disinformation Expert Ace
It's time to start publishing "journalists'" home addresses, and the bars they get drunk at, and the homes of the men and women they cheat on their wives with.
Oh wait we can't do that -- "journalists'" lives are too precious to risk, unlike normal Americans' lives.
Eric Daugherty @EricLDaugh3h
🚨 HOLY SMOKES. Treasury Sec. Scott Bessent just said "F THE IRANIAN LEADERSHIP" and that he had to move to a military base because the WSJ published his HOUSE ONLINE
"One of the reasons I had to move is because the WSJ printed a PHOTO OF MY HOUSE the DAY I bought it that has GEO-LOCATE on it! In a highly irresponsible way, the editor, we PLEADED with her NOT to print the location of my house, she DID ANYWAY." 😡
"We're NOT gonna be cowered...the IRGC are like a dangerous, cornered animal."
"I followed Secret Service instructions and moved from my home to a military base."
Pray for Secretary Bessent! 🙏🏻
The Journal ran an AERIAL VIEW of his $12.5 million home back in 2025
Bessent has led Operation Economic Outcast since August, the sanctions campaign CRUSHING Iran's economy, which made him a top Iranian target
This week the DOJ indicted three Iranian nationals tied to nearly 20 attacks and attempted attacks across Europe and the U.S.
Rubio and Miller had to move too.

New Democrat Plan to Solve the "Housing Crisis:" Let's Inflate the Housing Market By Pouring Government Cash Into It and Letting People Who Can't Afford a Mortgage Buy Homes Until They Default
—Disinformation Expert Ace
Say.... wait a minute...
Isn't this how they created the 2008 housing market collapse the crashed the world economy?
And then blamed on Republicans?
Well, since they got away with it once, I guess it's time to crash the world economy again. For Great Justice.
And... "Affordability."
One of President Biden's economic officials wants to create a system where people can pay just $1,000 to buy a home.What could possibly go wrong?
$1,000 for an entire house.
The housing crisis of 2008 was caused by "Ninja" loans -- No Income, No Job.
Now we're adding to "no down payment, no money at all."
Just a free house. For a very nominal payment of $1,000, which I'm sure will be waived for Democrat Constituents.
A top Biden administration economic official is pitching Democrats on a low-down-payment proposal to bring millions of new homebuyers into the market, as incoming congressional leaders take stock of affordability measures that might help them notch early legislative wins.A new policy group chaired by former National Economic Council Director Lael Brainard is pushing for the creation of a Federal Housing Administration program to facilitate home purchases with as little as $1,000 down for first-time buyers who meet "strong underwriting criteria," according to a copy of the proposal reviewed by Bloomberg News.
Uh-huh. If they have only managed to save $1,000, they do not have "strong underwriting criteria." This fiction is added so they can say "But it's not like the 2008 housing collapse, we're only giving free houses to people with no money but who have 'strong underwriting criteria.'"
Housing is a key factor in the widespread frustration over the high cost of living that helped fuel Democrats' historic rout of Republicans in last week's midterm elections. Some 77% of Americans support zero-down payment loans for qualifying first-time buyers, according to a survey by the Kitchen Table Project, the Brainard group that debuted in June and calls itself a "policy pop-up."
What about all the other Democrat spending priorities?
Don't worry, Jerry. They write it off.
They write it off.
Proposals to provide down payment assistance generally take the form of "grants, and grants are a direct cost to the government, and we know that we already have additional fiscal priorities," Brainard added, pointing to Democratic agenda items like restoring Affordable Care Act and Medicaid subsidies along with food assistance. "We really looked for proposals that could be done with a minimal amount of taxpayer funding."
This is absurd. Down payments for homes are usually 20% of the value of the home. The average cost of a home in the US is $472,000. So a down payment would be something like $95,000.
The Democrats are proposing only a $1,000 down payment, and then pretending the $94,000 usually expected is just Free Money that will cost the taxpayers "a minimal amount."
They're really doing it all again.
Just like with their eternal bleat the Real Communism Has Never Been Tried.
Real Housing Bubble Collapse That Crashes the Global Economy has never been tried.
Update:
Evicting them for non-payment in a year is the comeback.Posted by: San Franpsycho at November 13, 2026 12:14 PM (RIvkX)
No one will be evicted for non-payment.
Posted by: Heavy Meta
Correct. That's the move: Let them take a house for $1,000, then make all attempts to evict and repossess illegal.
"Minimal taxpayer cost," you know.
THE MORNING RANT: Ron DeSantis Separates Himself from Legacy GOP with Attack on “Corporatism”
—Buck Throckmorton
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has come out swinging since the Republican wipeout in the midterm elections. I hope this is because he’s laying the groundwork for a 2028 presidential bid, since he is one of the few national Republicans in tune with heartland Americans. Among the topics he is discussing is the problem of “corporatism,” and how the back-scratching, crony capitalism that exists between government and many corporations repels conservative voters, while also fueling the popularity of socialism among non-conservatives.
Here are some quotes from Gov. DeSantis, as documented in a NY Post article titled “DeSantis says ‘corporatist Republicans’ drive young voters toward socialism after GOP’s midterm disaster”:
“Young people have a very positive view of socialism compared to capitalism. The question is, why is that?”
“Some of it is the education in our universities. But I think a big part of that is, what they’re comparing is not free enterprise versus socialism. What they’re comparing is how government gets involved in business, and you have crony capitalism.”
“The best kind of indirect supporters of socialism are some of these corporatist Republicans who propagate these crony policies.”
“If it’s cronyism versus socialism, there’s going to be enough people who are going to choose socialism.”
Gov. DeSantis’ attack on corporatism is welcome and politically necessary.
I have been pounding on the issue of crony capitalism and corporate misbehavior for years, not because I’m anti-business, but because I’m anti-socialism. Like the great Malcolm Forbes (who embraced the nickname “The Capitalist Tool”), I am trying to shame companies that give capitalism a bad name, because they actually empower the enemies of economic freedom.
Some of the topics I’ve covered include:
Beverage/snack companies are dependent on SNAP benefits (food stamps) for more than 20% of their revenue. Along with grocery stores, they lobbied furiously against changes to eligible SNAP products, since they are so reliant on taxpayer money being redistributed to them through the SNAP program. (“PepsiCo [Frito Lay] Snack Sales Decline as SNAP Restrictions Kick In” - 8/07/2026)
The “EV Transition” was largely an effort by various levels of government to redistribute wealth to EV manufacturers. I have written many articles documenting the incentives, mandates, federal rebates, regulatory credits, etc. that favored Rivian, Tesla, and other EV manufacturers at the expense of taxpayers not even purchasing those products.
“Pro-business” governors like Brian Kemp of Georgia flushed billions of taxpayer dollars into failed or failing EV-related ventures. These included $2 billion to Hyundai to build an EV assembly plant, $1.5 billion to Rivian for a plant that was never built, and $300 million to SK for a battery manufacturing plant that could not support the jobs it promised. The government redistribution of wealth from working people to favored corporations is neither capitalism nor free market economics. I prefer to call it venture communism.
Regarding data centers, one reason I believe there is such public opposition is that the public doesn’t trust elected officials not to provide data centers with taxpayer-subsidized utilities and tax abatements. I absolutely support data center construction so long as there is no crony capitalism involved, but it is understandable that voters with empty wallets are skeptical, especially since so many early data center proposals demanded taxpayer subsidization.
The problem with corporate behavior today isn’t just the crony capitalism, it’s also the morally bankrupt ethos that has become mainstream in corporations.
Prominently, this includes the embrace of what is effectively chattel labor. It can be in the form of foreign, low-paid, H-1B labor who can’t otherwise compete in the U.S. job market, or it may be subcontractors using off-the-books, illegal aliens as a source of untaxed and unregulated labor. I have documented multiple examples where subcontracted illegal laborers are living in slave-like conditions in the United States. Corporate America just winks at these abuses, then pawns off the cost of healthcare and other social services to taxpayers.
Even if not illegal, there are too many examples of executives looting their companies by taking short-term actions that enrich themselves but harm the company’s employees and shareholders. As an example, in an October 2025 piece titled “Unhelpful in the Battle Against Socialism’s Growing Appeal: Sherwin Williams Eliminates Employees’ 401(k) Match Amidst Stock Buybacks and Increased CEO Compensation,” I documented how Sherwin Williams:

The Morning Report — 11/13 /26
—J.J. Sefton
Good morning kids. We'll start off with this item from the Are You freaking Kidding Me Files:
Officials decided an ancient method was the best way to decide the outcome of an election in Robertson County, Kentucky. When Republican Benny Ray Renner and Democrat Kristen Gifford Fryman tied with 91 votes each in the race for magistrate in the 2nd Magisterial District, it was up to officials to decide what to do next, KCRA reported Sunday. “Out of the 182 ballots cast, there was not a single vote that separated the two candidates once all precincts had reported their numbers back,” the outlet said. The Kentucky State Board of Elections recommended officials perform a coin flip to decide the outcome, and Fryman won...The coin used to decide the election was a quarter the sheriff had in his pocket.
Well all politics is indeed "local." But to any sane person, this puerile, irresponsible madness is just indicative of how far we as a nation and society have sunk. Is it really fair to use this idiocy as a barometer for the rest of the country? After all Kentucky is the state that inflicted Tom Massie on us. In any case, given the fact that much of the country is ignorant of the tyrannical bloody history of the Democrat Party, Socialism and Islam and in places where one thought that that ignorance was not the norm nevertheless voted it into power last week.
When an election produces outcomes that run completely counter to historical precedent, polling baselines, and raw mathematical probability, the dispute ceases to be a conventional political debate and transforms into an indictment of the process itself. The case asserting that this midterm was systematically subverted rests upon four primary pillars: statistical impossibility, software and algorithmic manipulation, unauthorized cyber penetration, and administrative chain-of-custody collapse. . . If elections cannot be independently verified and guaranteed as legitimate, this one may well be the last.
Given who and what will be in power come January that could very well be the case. Let's see who wins the coin toss in '28?!
On a separate note the ongoing war with Iran is evidently causing a major rift in the White House.
President Donald Trump on Thursday removed Vice President JD Vance from the Iran strategy, instructing him to focus on domestic issues.I have asked Vice President Vance to focus his complete and total attention on the Massive Corruption and Crime taking place in Democrat run Cities and States throughout the U.S...),” President Trump wrote on Truth Social. “Billions of Dollars is being stolen each and every month. Our Budget could be quickly BALANCED with the correction of this large scale criminal activity.”
The president rejected a negotiated deal with the Mullah regime. He asserted that the U.S. has succeeded in opening the Strait of Hormuz, removing Tehran’s sole leverage in the talks. . “We don’t need a deal with Iran,” he said. “Those days have long since passed. We’ve got their money, Hundreds of Billions of Dollars, and we’ve got their Strait!”
I'm wondering if this is purely about Iran or if there are some other tensions between the two that might be indicative that President Trump will be endorsing someone other than Vance to be at the top of the ticket for 2028. Frankly, Vance has not impressed me of late which given his continued refusal to distance himself from openly anti-Israel and anti-Semitic Tuq'r Qatarlson makes him a non-starter for me. YMMV of course.
We'll have to wait and see as the President himself is wont to say. On this and all the other myriad meshugas in the links I nevertheless bid you all to have a very good luck-filled Friday the 13th, triskaidekaphobia notwithstanding, then have yourselves a great weekend!

A man committed a truly demonic act -- he buried his infant son alive, inside a dog crate.
But people, possibly with some subtle direction from God, found the baby before he died.
Authorities in South Carolina managed to locate 11-month-old Koah Sharpe alive after he was allegedly buried in a dog crate by his father, Michael Comer. According to Global News, Comer had Sharpe on Monday when the infant was reported missing following Comer's arrest by the Lexington County Sheriff's Department. Comer was taken into custody on a burglary charge and for resisting arrest Monday night; Koah Sharpe was not with Comer when police apprehended him.
Early Tuesday afternoon, a search party located Koah Sharpe in the woods near Comer's father's home, where they noticed freshly disturbed earth. Sharpe was reportedly crying when authorities dug up the dog crate he was buried in. It had been covered with a towel, which created an air pocket that allowed the infant to survive about 24 hours underground.
I wonder if the father will plead postpartum psychosis and gather an army of cult supporters behind him.
Kurt Schlichter: The state GOP parties in Red States got fat and complacent about winning without even trying, and that laziness destroyed them this election cycle.
There's no one fatter and lazier than a deep red state's Republican organization, with few exceptions, and this bit us badly on the butt last week. Now, California is not a red state -- not anymore, though it was when I grew up there -- but this little story kind of sums up the problem with Republican organizations. They aren't about winning; they are social clubs. I was at some GOP event and sat down for rubber chicken next to somebody who proudly announced he was the Republican chair of, say, the 69th District and had been for 20 years. I asked him when the last time a Republican won in the 69th District was, and he looked at me like I was insane, like it never occurred to him that electing people might be a remotely relevant consideration for a district chair. The answer, of course, was "Never." The Republicans had never won it. But he had his gig, a nice seat on the dais, and that was what mattered. Not victory. Just his place in the social club that is the California Republican Party.In the red states, we got too used to winning easily. Far too used to it. We got so used to winning that it never occurred to us that we might not win, and it never occurred to us that we might have to work to win.

@JonathanTurleyApparently, Rep. Ocasio-Cortez's call to round up the "criminals" in Washington includes the conservative justices: "I mean, of course, this Supreme Court as well has also kind of legalized a lot of his criminality." The Democrats are fast becoming a party of berserkers...
...Of course, the impeachment standard is actually not
"kind of legalizing" stuff, but it is no worse than the understanding of her other colleagues of the standard...
...This pack and the pen approach would expand the Court with an instant liberal majority while potentially removing conservatives through criminal charges.
Rep. Tom Emmer says he doubts Ilhan Nur Said Elmi will be in Congress much longer.
I do not believe this at all, but I like the optimism.
"She lied because you get naturalized as a citizen with your natural parent when they are naturalized, if you are under the age of 18. Well, she was not under the age of 18," Emmer said.Emmer argued that the citizenship question offers a cleaner route than any criminal case. "She would have to reapply to be a citizen -- it's an administrative procedure. She shouldn't be in Congress," he told Finnerty.
Any indictment, according to Emmer, is a separate matter that "will go through in court."
"Once it's established that she was over the age of 18 when she claimed to be a minor, she's no longer a citizen of the United States. And when she's no longer a citizen, she's not entitled to serve in Congress," he added.
Pressed on who would confirm her actual birth date, Emmer said, "I think the Department of Justice is finalizing that." He noted that "there are four different things that are being looked at, and that is one of them."
Via Ed Morrissey: it sure looks like the ugliest man in US history to think he has a realistic chance to be president got tipped by investigators that Nvidia might face an intelligence probe, then he and his wife (who he married for her heiress-money) dumped their Nvidia stock.

In France, It's Officially Now a Crime to Criticize Islam, Even for a Major Author Who Was Permitted to Blaspheme Just Ten Years Ago
—Disinformation Expert Ace
Michel Houllebecq, author of Submission -- about France under Islamic rule -- was just charged with the crime of offending violent Muslim colonizers.
Tommy Robinson 🇬🇧 @TRobinsonNewEra
FRENCH AUTHOR CHARGED FOR CRITICISM OF ISLAMMichel Houellebecq is a French novelist, filmmaker and singer.
He is known for his 'controversial' views on Islam and demographic replacement.
He has said that Islam is "the dumbest of religions" and has warned "when entire territories come under Islamist control ... [violent] acts of resistance will take place"
He has also said:
"the wish of the population with French roots" was "for the violence to decrease, for [Muslim immigrants] to respect the law and people. Or, another good solution, for them to leave."
The Union of Mosques of France filed a legal complaint alleging Houellebecq of "encouraging violence" through his remarks.
In 2015, he published a novel titled 'Submission', imagining France under a Muslim president whose election leads to sweeping political and social changes.
He did this just a day after the the Charlie Hebdo massacre in Paris. One of the victims of that murderous terrorist attack on freedom of speech just so happened to be a friend of his.
A judge has now charged him with "complicity in incitement to discrimination, hatred or violence"
Houellebecq's attorneys told Le Monde that the "[incriminating] remarks have no dimension of incitement, not even implicitly" and said their client
"[regrets] the increasing judicialization of intellectual debate."When far left groups and Muslim organisations take people to court to get a politically motivated judge to charge them for speaking freely, that signs the death knell for feedom of speech.
Resist them while you can with every ounce of determination and with every resource you have, or risk losing those freedoms forever.
Houllebecq is a major author and public intellectual. So this isn't a case of the censors going after a minor-league rabble-rouser they decide people won't fight for.
This is the censors coming straight at the heart of free speech. Political speech and art are now officially crimes.
David Strom points out he's even chickened out and backtracked as the Muslims ginned up the state to punish him. It wasn't enough.
They want the coercion. They want the blasphemy laws enforced.
And the guy is hardly Tommy Robinson, who is more confrontational. He used to be, but has become far more circumspect. When he got pushback on his comments, he chickened out and said the problem wasn't Islam, but juvenile delinquents who just happen to be, by some strange coincidence, Muslims.He learned his lesson from the previous trial: couch your words in vagueness if you might offend a Muslim.
Worst of all, he said he worried not so much about Muslims becoming violent, but about the French reaction to Muslims [after the French became] tired of the crime.
In other words, Strom notes, he did the Norm MacDonald joke, but for real, hoping that if he couched his words in terms of his fear of backlash against peaceful Muslims after they blow up a dirty bomb, his speech would be deemed legal.
It wasn't.
Oh, one more point from Strom:
It's amazing how far down the prestige ladder the French intellectuals have fallen; a couple of decades ago, it would have been inconceivable for intellectuals to be held to account for almost any crime.
Including pedophilia, of course, if you're on the left.
When I was studying French and watching their TV, I was surprised that they actually respected free speech on news discussion shows. Yes, speakers on the right were "controversial," but they were actually allowed on the major debate shows and treated with respect. The French were, in that regard, much more open than the very closed American media, which completely excludes conservatives from the public debate.
Except, of course, for "conservatives" like David French, Bill Krisol, and Jonah Goldberg.
And it also wasn't the six-on-one token conservative gang-up, either. People were permitted to speak and disputes were had between one person and one other, or maybe two others.
But I see that is no longer the case. Now they're charging critics of Islam with blasphemy.
KS-MVultra
@kevinskilesNov 10
I'm so relieved the west won the Cold War. If the Soviets had of prevailed we'd be living under constant photo survelience, all our phones would be tapped, going to a political protest could get you financially sanctioned, writing a critical book could get you jailed and there would only be one political party to vote for. What a relief none of that happened.

Hollywood: Trash or Garbage?
James Gunn Edition
—Disinformation Expert Ace
Matt McGloin has scoops about the upcoming James Gunn Superman sequel, Man of Tomorrow, being canceled, Batgirl-style, with all money spent so far being taken as a tax write off.
Or, he suggests, Man of Tomorrow might be given a cheap post-production budget and just dumped on HBO Max.
I don't think this is true.
But if it is true, I have a theory about it. Grace Randolf, an idiot SJW biased critic who was nevertheless right that James Gunn was a very poor fit for DC, has been predicting that the new regime at Skydance wants to give Gunn "notes" about the movie -- demands about what must be cut (for example, Supergirl's presence) and what new scenes need to be shot in reshoots.
But James Gunn's contract states that he gets final cut over the movie.
So: Is it possible that Skydance is putting out word they will straight-up cancel the movie (which has already been almost completely shot) if James Gunn does not give up on his final cut power and accept studio notes?
That's a scenario that seems plausible to me.
That said, I still don't know if we can credit any of these "scoops" as true. This seems like a really, really big decision to make. This is an expensive movie. Canceling it saves the money for post-production (editing, music, and of course special effects and marketing), but cancelling it locks in the substantial money already spent as a loss.
I know, I know:
They write it off, Jerry. They write it off.Posted by: Kramer
If Gunn calls their bluff and says "Fine, cancel it," do they go forward with the threat?
I don't know.
Like I said, I don't know how much of these claims, from a fairly obscure geek-culture news site, are true.
The first article from Matt McGloin:
Man of Tomorrow's release is an open question inside Skydance."All options are on the table," per what our Skydance Paramount insider was told Tuesday night from inside the company.
That covers the Superman sequel's July 9, 2027 theatrical date, and everything short of it.
It comes a day after the same insiders told us Skydance expects the movie to lose up to $100 million, with David Corenswet out as Superman.
The math is the problem.
"Now Ellison and Latcham have a $250M pile of ass sitting there waiting for post production, VFX, reshoots, and at least $125M in marketing. Total easily over $400M if they release it."
"BIG HUGE IF," said the insider's friend inside the company.
The movie wrapped filming in August, and James Gunn finished the assembly cut in early October.
Post-production, effects, and any reshoots now happen under the regime that fired Gunn to take over the final cut.
And what is on the screen is its own problem. Our insiders trashed the plot itself, down to what Wonder Woman is doing in it.
The same read is now circulating outside the company.
Columnist Dan Marcus, host of The Film Frontier, posted Tuesday night: "My friend predicted to me earlier today that MAN OF TOMORROW might just get dumped on the new HBO MAX/Paramount Plus streaming platform, and I hate to say it, but I think he could be right."
Shown the post, our insider replied: "I was told tonight all options are on the table."
...
Then there is Enty, the lawyer behind the Crazy Days and Nights blind item site, who ran this as Blind Item #5 dated November 10: "The comic studio heads were fired. They didn't quit. Their boss wants to sell off the entire comic book universe to help get rid of some of that $100B debt."
So that kind of makes sense -- except for the fact that due to the collapse of DC on Film, the entire DC pile of intellectual property is currently at a low value. You'd want to bring in a Fluffer to get its value up a bit before selling.
Still, some talk about DC being "cursed" and maybe the thinking is that its value will never increase.
Oh, and it should be pointed out that due to copyright protections finally being allowed to expire, Superman and Batman (at least in their earlier forms) will become public domain in the 2030s. And then a whole bunch of characters start dropping into public domain: Wonder Woman, Joker, Captain America, Flash, etc. All the characters created in the initial burst of of the golden age of comics.
(Most of the characters created by Marvel, except for the early ones like Cap, Human Torch, and Namor the Sub-Mariner, will be protected for a while longer, as they were mostly created in the early sixties.)
McGloin also claims that James Gunn is "setting fire" to DC on his way out the door.
Some of these claims seem dubious, but McGloin tells him that his Warner Bros/Discovery sources previously tipped him, accurately, that Hal Jordan would be killed in "Lanterns" and that Gunn was slated to be fired.
UPDATE: Variety confirms our report on Man of Tomorrow. Two sources now describe Gunn "setting fire" to DC on his way out, screaming matches over the cut included. The plot details leaked: a simp Superman and a lesbian Wonder Woman. Insiders reports are stating Man of Tomorrow may not get a theatrical release. We're told David Corenswet is done. Variety says Lanterns is canceled. THR reports David Ellison and Ynon Kreiz fired Gunn and Safran in person on the Warner Bros. lot; plus, Puck reports Skydance is already dismantling the Gunn DCU slate. TheWrap also says the goofy DCU is over and Ellison is mandating a return to Justice League....
They're the same insiders who first told us back in October 2025 that Gunn would be out, who told us that Hal Jordan would die in Lanterns, and even that Daredevil: Born Again would be retooled.
His report from yesterday about "screaming matches" over the direction took Man of Tomorrow.
"MOT is dog s--, confirmed, bunch of random nobodies cameo without rhyme or reason. Plot is stupid, Superman is a simp again, and Wonder Woman is a lesbian. You heard that right. She and Hawkgirl 'meet cute' and bond while punching white straight 'evil' dudes."That is our Skydance Paramount insiders, relaying word from inside the studio as the new regime decides what to do with the movie.
...
Per this leak, that is the pairing: a meet cute, a bond, and "evil" dudes to punch.
We have also been told Arjona's Wonder Woman is a one-and-done, so whatever happens in this movie, the character starts over under the new bosses.
The "random nobodies" complaint has a paper trail.Our insiders said Man of Tomorrow is Gunn's last hurrah and Gunn was "kitchen sinking cameos and fan service, a lot of which may not even make it to the screen".
Script leaks described an event movie stuffed with two teams and characters DC has never put on screen.
A word about these rumored "kitchen sink cameos:" 1, they would make Superman a mere co-star in his own movie again, and 2, it would further goofify the DC universe by featuring Gunn's favorite type of character, misfit joke-characters, and 3, it would also reduce excitement for what Skydance hopes would re-invigorate the brand, a Justice League team-up. If you have Superman teaming up with half of the DC universe in every movie, it's not really a big deal when he teams up with other characters.
Variety confirms that Skydance wants to remove many of the cameos and "easter egg ephemera" from the film.
You might say, "But Gunn would use marginal/minor characters for his cameos and reserve the 'big guns' for a future Justice League movie."
But here's the thing: To a normie, any characters besides Batman, Superman, and Wonder Woman are marginal/minor characters. The Flash is one of DC's top heroes but to a normie, he's just another weird side-character. Especially after Ezra Miller played him.
And on Monday, the insiders behind the Gunn firing exclusive said the new bosses call the movie "too bloated" and are not excited about it.
Although I almost can't believe they'd make Wonder Woman -- the most iconic female superhero in the world -- a lesbian, it should be remembered that leftists, feminists, and gay activists have been demanding she be made a lesbian (or at least bisexual) for a long, long time, and leftwing "creatives" have been bowing to that pressure to make many B- or C-list characters gay for a decade now.
Even if the "meet cute" were just a Star-Wars-like hint/suggestion that they might be gay, that would still establish Wonder Woman as canonically lesbian. The straight-to-gay sexuality-bending pipeline only goes in one direction. It never goes in the other direction.
Feh. Maybe Skydance should take Alfred's advice about how to deal with mad chaos agents: "Burn the whole forest down."
Update: It's also reported that Skydance asked Gunn and his partner Safran about their plans for the future and their progress on their alleged "ten year plan" of movies but the pair were secretive and evasive, which made up Skydance's minds for them.
Meanwhile, Jim Caviziel's action movie Ghost Soldier opened Tuesday for Veterans Day.

The gunman in the early morning Washington, DC, gym shooting has been identified as a well-heeled doctor who was battling his homeowners' association over black mold in his $1.1 million penthouse and railed about it on X.Dr. Matt Lambert, an emergency room doctor, had sued Metropole Condominium Association in March 2025, alleging that repairs to the building, which involved it being surrounded by scaffolding and drapes, led to mold festering in his home.
"Two years of living in luxury (and the start of 6 months with no shower, dryer, HVAC, and cooking)," an X account linked to Lambert posted Wednesday, along with pictures showing renovations in the Logan Circle unit.
Lambert, who lived on the seventh floor of 1515 15th St. NW, opened fire Thursday morning inside the ground-floor gym, killing at least one person. He then ran back up to his apartment and barricaded himself for nearly an hour before he killed himself.
Emergency personnel are pictured working at the site of a shooting in Washington, DC, with police cruisers, fire trucks, and ambulances surrounding the area, with an overlay of an emergency response team standing on the roof deck of a building in Logan Circle.
DC police said they were investigating a conflict with the homeowner's association as the reason behind the shooting, which left one dead and four others injured.
Lambert filed his suit in March 2025, alleging that his home experienced "no significant water intrusion, mold, moldy smells, moisture accumulation, or related damage," prior to the remediation efforts overseen by the association.But, after the building was enveloped, his unit "experienced suspected water intrusion, mold, significant moisture accumulation, and/or related damage," the suit said.
Lambert described himself as "a board-certified emergency physician with over two decades of clinical experience" and a medical tech executive on his personal website.
"He has a deep understanding of health care regulations and their impact on technology adoption," the site says.
He also said he split his time between the "mountains of West Virginia and the Logan Circle neighborhood of Washington, DC."
I mean, it sucks-- but murder? He is wealthy enough to move.
You might wonder where I'm getting the idea that he's a shitlib from.
Well, from his picture:

Update: The Twice-Deported Honduran Terrorist Who Panicked a Plane by Claiming He Had a Bomb and Rushing the Cockpit... Was Allowed to Stay In the US by a Judge Because He Claimed He Was "Transgender"

Bill Melugin @BillMelugin_BREAKING: DHS confirms to @FoxNews that the reason this 2x previously deported illegal alien was released into the country after his third illegal crossing in 2019 is because he claimed to be transgender and claimed fear of being killed in his home country on his asylum application, which was approved in early 2020. DHS has provided that section from his application 👇🏻
DHS alleges that this was a blatant case of asylum fraud and the "gaming of a weak asylum system."

Nvidia's CEO Resigns After His Affair with a Chinese Spy Is Revealed
—Disinformation Expert Ace
Nvidia makes the crucial chips that power almost all AI machines.
China is obviously interested in keeping those chips flowing to China, and perhaps picking up some details about how they're made and how they can be exploited.
And Nvidia's CEO, Jensen Huang, was just caught bang-banging a Fang Fang.
AF Post @AFpostNvidia CEO Jensen Huang has admitted to having an affair with a suspected Chinese spy in a message to his company amid media reports.
The company has announced an independent investigation into the matter, with the intent of determining whether Huang was the target of a foreign intelligence operation. Huang has apologized to his wife and children and says he takes "full responsibility" for his actions.
OSINTdefender @sentdefenderNvidia announced in a statement Sunday that it is opening an independent investigation of CEO Jensen Huang, following reports that he had been targeted by a long-term foreign intelligence effort led by the Chinese Communist Party aimed at weakening the chip manufacturer's relationship with the United States and strengthening it with China.
Nvidia's Board of Directors said as part of the statement: "A committee of independent directors, assisted by outside independent counsel, will oversee the investigation. The Board prioritizes U.S. national and economic security, which is paramount to the interests of NVIDIA and its shareholders. While the Board has no reason to believe that either national security or NVIDIA secrets were compromised, the Board's inquiry will examine all available information."
I don't know if the suspected honeytrap used her affair with Huang to move chips to China. But she sure did move a lot of Nvidia chips to China:
Kalshi @KalshiBREAKING: Jensen Huang's lover helped move $7,500,000,000 in restricted Nvidia AI chips into China during affair
43% chance Jensen leaves as CEO before 2028
Seven and a half billion dollars' worth of AI chips. That's a lot.
She ran a front company whose mission was to evade restrictions on sales of AI chips to China.
The abrupt departure follows days of melodrama over Huang's admitted affairs -- two have been acknowledged by Huang, so you know there are more out there -- and the fact that his most recent paramour has all the appearances of being a ChiCom intelligence officer in addition to running a front company designed to bust U.S. restrictions on China's access to Nvidia chips. This has cost Nvidia about 30% of its stock value, or about $1 trillion- yes, that was with a "t"- since the affair broke on October 29....
Ms. Huang was an executive at Singapore-based Megaspeed, a major Nvidia customer that U.S. authorities have investigated for suspected diversion of advanced chips toward China. A recent New York Times investigation found that Megaspeed had no offices, facilities, or apparent employees despite accounting for between 10 and 15 percent of Nvidia's revenue. It ran from leased space inside an accounting firm that specialized in managing shell corporations.
And now Huang has resigned, so that Huang can spend more time with his Fang Fang Bang Bang.
Ed Ludlow @EdLudlowBREAKING: Jensen Huang has resigned as Nvidia CEO. CFO Colette Kress will act as Interim CEO and earnings go ahead next week. The board will consider external candidates for CEO longterm.
Nvidia stock prices fell 13% on news of the resignation, but had already fallen a bunch since the disclosure of the scandal at the end of October.
Update: It's now reported he had two extramarital affairs, but I assume it's only the suspected Chinese spy they really care about. The second acknowledged affair was with Kimberly Powell, a Nvidia executive handling health care.

The Morning Rant
—CBD
Shifting cultural norms have consequences that take years to appear, and while the conceit of the left is that behavior can be guided, that is laughably incorrect. Man's social behavior is far too complex to assume that changing X will lead to Y and Z. The real goal of the left is simply to change behavior for the worse...moving it away from traditional roles and toward the chaos that they seek.
The destruction of the perceived differences between men and women, while simultaneously crediting women with all of the physical and martial skills of men may be their greatest triumph. Shifting the default of women away from their natural behavior -- child-bearing and rearing -- and toward some simulacrum of clownish masculinity has produced a culture that is hilariously ignorant of reality. That five-foot tall, 110 pound woman who kicks the crap out of multiple attackers is amusing to watch in a movie, but has no link to the real world. It simply doesn't work that way!
But even more ridiculous is the expectation among the woke ignoramuses that women have the capacity and right to confront men physically, but men will be handcuffed by the traditional mores of a bygone era, and will not respond in kind. Of course those traditional rules apply only to women who behave traditionally.
So we have women behaving like men, and men expected to behave like women.
Except when it doesn't work out quite as planned.
Liberals are mad because ICE removed this woman that was blocking law enforcement https://t.co/f6Y22lqkAG

I watched that clip about 17 times, because it makes me chuckle. This middle-aged AWFL was confident that the social construct of the empowered woman was sufficient to protect her from the real-world consequences of her actions which, when examined, were nothing more than a physical confrontation with law enforcement.
And she lost.
Which is to be expected in about 99% of these cases. The time and place for confrontation with law enforcement is when one is before a judge, not on the street. Oh, she thought that because her cause was just and good and approved by the bien-pensants that she would be safe from the physical consequences of her physical act. She was wrong, but her expectation was reasonable because that is what our culture has taught her!
And those lessons can be seen across the country in thousands of these sorts of interactions. The earnest but deluded leftist who knocks over a pro-life organization's table at a demonstration is shocked...SHOCKED...to be handcuffed and taken to jail. The septuagenarian lunatic in NH who slaps a Turning Point Action volunteer is stunned by the perfectly reasonable result...arrest!
In the old America, most people understood that physical confrontation often led to a punch on the nose or a trip to jail, and that is why girls and women shied away from that sort of behavior. But the rules have changed, and not for the better. Perhaps America needs to return to a time when violence was allowed to develop according to those ancient and rather clever rules.
Does that mean that traditional roles are better than the chaos we have today? Absolutely, and those roles were a big part of keeping our society reasonably civil, at least in comparison to the current insanity.
Now get off my lawn!

The Morning Report — 11/12 /26
—J.J. Sefton
A Brooklyn building collapsed into a massive pile of rubble Wednesday, killing at least two people and injuring 17 — including four critically — as firefighters desperately search for more victims buried underneath the wreck in a harrowing scene. Loved ones made frantic calls for help after the three-story apartment building at Newkirk and Flatbush Avenues fell into an active construction site next door at around 4 p.m., witnesses said. Officials warned that the number of victims would likely increase. Rescue crews don’t know how many people from the building are still missing as the dire and dangerous search for any survivors continued into the night and is expected to stretch for days.
As many of you know, I am a former New Yorker, so this story really hits close to home in that I not only hail from Brooklyn but my childhood home is not even a mile from the site of the collapse.
And speaking of collapses, the hits just keep on coming for NYC.
New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani signed a law giving nonprofit organizations the first opportunity to purchase distressed residential buildings. . . Covered properties include multifamily buildings with four or more units that are in significant disrepair, as well as buildings with affordability restrictions governed by HPD regulatory agreements. By creating a pathway for responsible community-based ownership, COPA will ensure that these properties are repaired, maintained and operated in partnership with tenants rather than left to deteriorate by negligent owners.
Obviously given the players involved here, the terms "responsible" and "negligent owners" are quite fungible. You better believe that property inspectors will be fully vetted for their political allegiances to no one but the Democrat Socialites. That means that a distressed property will be defined as one whose owner is the Trump organization or someone similar.
The Democrats believe that having a home is a human right. Not for the rightful owner of a property but every indigent, layabout, vagrant and illegal alien in our midst. After all America was colonized by white supremacist foreigners and so the other favorite Leftist word is in equal force: Liberation
Thanksgiving Is a 'Day of Mourning,' Lesson Plan Recommended to Loudoun County Second Graders Says. . . Public school teachers in Loudoun County, Virginia, looking to teach their students about American holidays can draw from a list of district-approved lesson plans, including one recommended for second graders that declares Thanksgiving a "Day of Mourning" and another that calls Columbus Day a "Debated Celebration," documents obtained via a public records request and shared exclusively with the Washington Free Beacon show.
My own personal view is that Thanksgiving is a day of Liberation, in that civilized, advanced, cultured superior people liberated a continent from savage heathen rapists, pedophiles, and subhuman cannibals and bringing them the priceless benefits of civilization. In any case if you think what's going on in Loudon County is a one-off, you better think again. Because what happened to us on Election Day and really since the Swinging 60s if not earlier, get ready for your kids and grandkids to get it right in the head! Because the revolution must be generational and forever.
The Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) made huge political gains in the midterms. Having already captured the mayor’s office in New York City, the group is now working their political message into school classrooms. American education is already rife with left-wing political indoctrination, but it’s about to get even worse. . . The New York City DSA chapter also established Comrades With Kids, a family-focused organizing group that seeks to be a “political and social home base for working-class families.” The group posted photos of DSA-themed coloring pages for children provided at a Zohran for Parents event in September 2025.
FORGET a lousy tenement in Flatbush, the Berlin Wall fell on top of us and from where I'm lying, I can't see anyone coming to dig us out! But wait, there's more, as the hits just keep on coming.
Democrat Scott Colom Wins Mississippi Senate Seat Defeating Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith . . . that gives Democrats their 55th seat in the U.S. Senate following the November midterm election.
Despite all this misery, I nevertheless hope that all of you have a good day
