Every once in a long while, a wee little bit of obvious leaks into their skulls somehow.

Well everyone ends up thrown under the Trump bus, but note that Baked Alaska only seems remotely concerned when he *personally* is the one being screwed over. It's not people are going to jail it's "I'm" going to jail.
Trump has no loyalty to his own followers, at all, and it's not a surprise that none of them have much loyalty to each other as a result, other than when they can exploit it for political gain.
EDIT: In a similar vein, this story came to my attention right now. Kari Lake admits it's the Republicans who rigged the election. However, she totally doesn't mean in general - it's entirely self-centered, and only concerns the fact that she, personally, lost.

Quote:
MyPillow founder and prominent election denier Mike Lindell made a bold offer ahead of a “cyber symposium” he held in August 2021 in South Dakota: He claimed he had data showing Chinese interference and said he would pay $5 million to anyone who could prove the material was not from the previous year's U.S. election.
He called the challenge “Prove Mike Wrong.”
On Wednesday, a private arbitration panel ruled that someone did.
The panel said Robert Zeidman, a computer forensics expert and 63-year-old Trump voter from Nevada, was entitled to the $5 million payout.
To cut the story short, Lindell's data was supposed to show packet data from China that affected the election. What the expert found in the files was actually big chunks of basically random letters and numbers, so he was able to show it wasn't even packet data AT ALL.
Sounds like someone basically wrote a script that churns out big files full of randomized letters and numbers then Mike Lindell paid them for the "data", and provided it to the symposium completely un-vetted.
As for why that's highly unlikely to be real data, there are 256 characters in ASCII, and only 52 of them are letters (upper and lower case), and 10 of them are numbers. So if you have a file full of actual data and read it as text, on average only 25% of the characters in the file will actually be legible letters or numbers.
EDIT: turns out the guy who sold him the data is Dennis Montgomery: the scammer who scammed the Bush Administration with fake software he claimed could predict terrorist activity. He was just making it all up as he went along.

Also, in something I didn't expect: Ann Coulter being decent calling out Republicans over their anti-abortion stance. Turns out Ann Coulter is pro-choice ??

So, Liar Tuck is out.
Apparently, on his final Friday show, he signed off with, see you on Monday, unaware that he had already "agreed to part ways" with FOX.

How will he survive with only his vast, frozen dinner trust fund to sustain him? Thoughts 'n' prayers, everyone.

Edith! Get me a beer!
Spoiler: I thought the ad in this segment was a satire made by the program. - I was wrong.
It's real. As real as the women featured.

They never miss an opportunity to grift. And then they claim it's evidence of the rigged election because there's a lack of people running around with cars / houses entirely covered in Biden merch.
Which reminds me of one I read, pretty sure it was in the anti-QAnon (Qult Headquarters) group on Reddit. Wouldn't be surprised if it was here though - i don't actually frequent that many groups that discuss politics. A user claimed that he worked at a company, and a new hire got fired on his first day. The reason - he saw someone in a Biden shirt and made fun of them. It was the owner of the business.

Lawrence O'Donnell brilliantly parses the text that allegedly got Tucker Carlson fired and explains why the real reason is probably much, much worse than Tucker's now infamous and public text. Tucker's reveals that his heart was glad as he watched a gang of Trumpists beat a solitary ANTIFA protestor on January 6th, hoping that they would kill him.

The history lesson is icing on the cake.

Trump is so full of petard he just hoist himself on one.
So satisfying.
