A space rocket program manager butchered [his] father with an ice axe on Election Night after a breakdown following President-elect Trump’s victory — and was found smiling and clapping covered in [his] loved one’s blood, cops said.

Corey Burke considered the bloody rampage – in which [he] allegedly strangled, bit and hacked [his] 67-year-old father in the $800,000 Seattle home they shared – to be an “act of liberation,” charging documents allege.

Burke, 33, is a training program manager at Blue Origin, Jeff Bezos’ spacecraft company, according to [his] LinkedIn, and is married to prominent transgender writer Samantha Leigh Allen, public records show.

Burke told cops that the killing was meant to “help people change their attachment to their parents” and “had to happen today,” [he] told police, her face covered in her father’s blood, according to court documents.

Burke had been upset about election day and knew Trump would handily beat Vice President Kamala Harris when [he] allegedly snapped — apparently because when [his] father, Timothy Burke, refused to turn off the lights.

Judge Pauses All Deadlines in Trump’s New York Case Based on Election Victory

/2 Comments/in , /by

Judge Juan Merchan paused all deadlines in President-elect Donald Trump’s New York case — including the sentencing date scheduled for later this month.

Merchan granted a joint request by prosecutors and defense attorneys to pause the case until Nov. 19, pushing off his decision on Trump’s motion to toss the verdict based on presidential immunity, which he previously was slated to issue a ruling on Tuesday.

Merchan directed prosecutors to submit their view of “appropriate steps going forward” in a filing by next week. Prosecutors requested Merchan pause proceedings to allow them to evaluate the impact of Trump’s election victory.

“The People agree that these are unprecedented circumstances and that the arguments raised by defense counsel in correspondence to the People on Friday require careful consideration to ensure that any further steps in this proceeding appropriately balance the competing interests of (1) a jury verdict of guilt following trial that has the presumption of regularity; and (2) the Office of the President,” prosecutor Matthew Colangelo wrote in a Nov. 10 email to Merchan.

Trump’s defense attorneys joined the request, arguing dismissal of the case is required to “avoid unconstitutional impediments to President Trump’s ability to govern.” (Read more from “Judge Pauses All Deadlines in Trump’s New York Case Based on Election Victory” HERE)

Jon Stewart Lectures Democrats Following Trump Victory (VIDEO)

/2 Comments/in , /by

Comedian Jon Stewart lectured his fellow Democrats in his election post-mortem on Monday’s episode of Comedy Central’s The Daily Show, denying claims the party had become “too woke” and insisting instead that Democrats had “acted like Republicans” during the campaign.

Jon Stewart took issue with the prevailing belief among left-wing pundits that Kamala Harris’ loss to President-elect Donald Trump was due in part to Democrats’ becoming too woke.

“I only have one problem with the ‘woke’ theory,” he said. “I just didn’t recall seeing any Democrats running on woke s**t.”

He continued: “They acted like Republicans for the last four months,” citing Kamala Harris’ decision to embrace endorsements from Dick Cheney and Liz Cheney, and to campaign with Liz Cheney in the final days of the campaign.

Stewart added: “Democrats were mostly running against an identity that was defined for them based on a couple of months of post-George Floyd, defund the police Instagram posts from four years ago. So the Democrats have got to chill out.” (Read more from “Jon Stewart Lectures Democrats Following Trump Victory” HERE)

Report: Women Stockpile Abortion Pills, Men Schedule Vasectomies After Election

/2 Comments/in , /by

Liberal women are stockpiling abortion pills and “morning after” pills and men are scheduling vasectomies at greater rates after Donald Trump won the 2024 presidential election, left-leaning news outlets are reporting.

Despite Trump repeatedly stating that abortion laws should be left to individual states, Democrats — including failed presidential candidate Kamala Harris — and pro-abortion organizations have claimed he will sign a national abortion restriction. Abortion also notably became a constitutional right in seven states this election cycle, after voters passed various ballot measures allow abortion throughout pregnancy with some limitations.

On the heels of a Trump victory, abortion organizations are reporting higher numbers of appointments and requests, The Washington Post reported. Aid Access, which mails abortion pills around the country, said it received 10,000 requests in the 24 hours after the election — far greater than the roughly 600 request the organization usually receives.

“Rebecca Gomperts, founder of Europe-based Aid Access, said her organization received so many online orders for abortion medication on Wednesday that the website briefly crashed,” according to the report. “More of those requests than usual were from people who wanted to have the pills on hand in case they unexpectedly became pregnant, Gomperts said. She added that orders came not just from states with abortion restrictions but also from states where the procedure is protected.” (Read more from “Report: Women Stockpile Abortion Pills, Men Schedule Vasectomies After Election” HERE)

Republicans Take Control of the House of Representatives

/1 Comment/in , /by

Republicans are projected to take control of the House of Representatives, giving the party a trifecta as Republicans also took control of the Senate and the presidency.

Decision Desk HQ projected that the Republicans had won enough seats for them to take control of the House. Republicans were projected to have secured a 218-209 majority.

House Republicans ended up making gains over their Democrat colleagues in the election. Republican candidate Rob Bresnahan won the race for Pennsylvania’s 8th Congressional District over incumbent Rep. Matt Cartwright.

Republican candidate Ryan Mackenzie also unseated incumbent Rep. Susan Wild (D-PA) in the race for Pennsylvania’s 7th Congressional District.

The Hill reported that there were “three freshmen New York Republicans” who were unseated in their races.

/0 Comments/in , /by

. . .Here’s a sampling of social-media posts I’ve seen since the re-election of President Donald Trump.

“My six-year-old son kept hugging me this morning and saying ‘don’t worry mama, I won’t let him hurt you.’ ”

“I told my 3yo to never have kids… I’ve been sobbing since I woke up.”

“I scared my poor 1-year-old son because I was crying so hard.” . . .

These are real people, and unfortunately, real parents, who have decided to inflict severe emotional distress upon their children as some kind of political virtual signal.

For anyone on social media, you’ve been deluged with these overwrought posts since President Donald Trump bested Vice President Kamala Harris. (Read more from “Post-Election, the (Liberal) Moms Are Not Ok — And It’s Hurting Their Kids” HERE)

Ivy League university Dartmouth College is providing a “Democratic listening circle” and hours of psychological counseling to students following Vice President Kamala Harris’ election defeat, according to university documents obtained by the Daily Caller News Foundation.

Dartmouth’s schedule of “post-election events” includes a two hour “Democratic listening circle,” described as “a supportive environment where Democratic voters can share their hopes, concerns, and reflections about our country’s direction.” The school also offered a five-and-a-half hour “Decompress Dinner” on Wednesday, in addition to three hours of mental health counseling on both Wednesday and Thursday.

“Be off the grid the day after the election,” the “Decompress Dinner” description reads. “Bring a book, a craft, and a friend to the lodge…Van ride and dinner included!”

Dartmouth is offering a listening circle for faculty as well as a “Bipartisan Listening Circle,” where “participants take turns speaking while others practice deep, respectful listening.” It will also provide open space for students to “process and discuss with food,” and one-on-one confidential meetings with a chaplain.

The Ivy League school has even organized a “Republican Listening Circle,” despite former President Donald Trump winning the election handily. (Read more from “Ivy Leaguers Offered ‘Democratic Listening Circle,’ Psychological Counseling Following Harris Loss” HERE)
