Welcome back to the Monday Good News Roundup, where we try and start your week off right with stories about how things are getting better all the time. But sometimes, its not about how good you’re doing, its about how someone who is actively trying to make the world a worse place is failing at it. Yes, by some coincidence all of the stories brought to us by our GNR newsroom (consisting of Bhu and Killer300), are about how the GOP and Trump are having a rough 2022 so far. So I decided to make it a theme week this week. So lets dive right in and enjoy some well deserved Schadenfreude.
Former President Donald Trump’s onetime personal attorney and fixer Michael Cohen taunted Bill Barr in a tweet after the former attorney general was served papers last week regarding Cohen’s lawsuit against him.
So apparently now the Trump cronies are fighting among themselves. Like dogs fighting over scraps of meat. I would say its like watching two toddlers fight over a ninja turtle, but lets be real, the toddlers would have more dignity.
The far-right firebrands and conspiracy theorists of the pro-Trump internet have a new enemy: each other.
QAnon devotees are livid at their former hero Michael Flynn for accurately calling their jumbled credo "total nonsense." Donald Trump superfans have voiced a sense of betrayal because the former president, booed for getting a coronavirus immunization booster, has become a "vaccine salesman." And attorney Lin Wood seems mad at pretty much everyone, including former allies on the scattered "elite strike-force team" investigating nonexistent mass voter fraud.

After months of failing to disprove the reality of Trump's 2020 presidential election loss, some of the internet's most popular right-wing provocateurs are grappling with the pressures of restless audiences, saturated markets, ongoing investigations and millions of dollars in legal bills.
The problem with keeping people around based on a lie is the longer the lie goes on, the harder it is to keep up and the more frustrated people get. Trumps facade isn’t gonna last much longer.
The state of New York’s long-running investigation into former President Trump’s business practices is training its sights on Trump’s children, a court document filed Monday revealed.
Donald Trump Jr. and Ivanka Trump have both been subpoenaed by Attorney General Letitia James, who is investigating whether the Trump Organization illegally manipulated the value of some of its properties in order to skirt taxes. The New York Times reported that the subpoenas were served on Dec. 1, the same day Trump received one for the same investigation. James’ intention to depose the former president was reported last month, but her push to question his children was not made public until Monday.
I really can’t stress that becoming president was the worst thing Trump could have done for himself. Now he’s being attacked on all sides and he gained nothing from it. Being president ruined this dumbass.
Donald Trump hit out at Fox News Sean Hannity on Wednesday for suggesting days after the Capitol riot that the former president should stop claiming the election was rigged.
The House select committee investigating the Capitol riot on Tuesday released the texts sent by Hannity — a prominent supporter of Trump — to his former aides including Mark Meadows, the former White House chief of staff.
And the fight to see who is king of shit mountain, the race to the bottom of the barrel, the battle for who is the biggest clown in the circus, the biggest monkey in the zoo, continues to heat up.
Rod Thomson, a representative for the Cyber Ninjas, confirmed to CNN that company is shutting down. Thomson said, "$2 million debt from the Arizona audit and endless legal and character attacks on the company by those who opposed the audit make it untenable moving forward.
Yep, the guys who were behind Trumps pathetic, embarrassing and futile hail Mary to try and rewrite the 2020 election (which lets face it was never gonna work because he would have to do the same in both Georgia and Pennsylvania too, among other places) and it didn’t even work because they found Biden had won by even more, is folding as a company. And no one could possibly be surprised because any company that works with Trump is destined to wither and die.
The move comes as a blow to audit dead-enders who have long insisted that Cyber Ninjas secretly has proof of Donald Trump’s 2020 victory—but who are now smearing the group as “grifters.”
Since the audit’s launch this spring, Cyber Ninjas claimed to run the operation with radical transparency, sharing live streams of auditors as they flipped through stacks of ballots. The livestreams attracted an online community on messaging platforms like Telegram. Some of those Telegram channels were less than pleased with Cyber Ninjas’ dissolution on Thursday.
“FAKES,” complained one member of an Arizona audit channel. “SOAB [son of a ****], all they care about is $.”
This was pretty much inevitable as well. The second you stop being useful to Donald the hounds come out. Of course they will be coming for Donny soon as well.
And that’s it for this week. Quite a ride. I hope you all have a pleasant week, and even if you are having a bad week, remember there is probably someone out there having a worse one, and that’s probably Donald Trump.
