Details:
“Cassidy yelled at Trump during the closed-door Senate GOP lunch over the Iran memorandum of understanding (the deal/MOU with Iran) and the ongoing war/operation there.
He criticized the lack of transparency and accountability, saying afterward to reporters:
“I stood and said, ‘You have not told the American people what’s going on. It’s lasted four months. Our original objectives have not been achieved, and I want to know what’s going on.’”
His core point: “The American people need to know more than we are being told. The Senate needs to know.” He came in “guns blazing,” referred to Trump as “brother” (instead of “Mr. President”), lost his temper, matched Trump’s raised volume in the shouting match/back-and-forth, and refused an initial order to sit down. Trump called him a “lunatic” and said he was “not his brother.”
This stemmed from Cassidy (and three other GOP senators) supporting the prior day’s war powers resolution limiting Trump’s authority in the Iran conflict. https://t.co/EqN8MG9FnL “
INSIDE THE SENATE GOP LUNCH WITH TRUMP:
Sen. Bill Cassidy (R-La.) confronted President Trump over the Iran memorandum of understanding, a source familiar with the lunch conversation tells me @MSNOWNews.
Cassidy was “yelling” at Trump, the source said.
This source also tells me that Trump went after Sen. Dave McCormick (R-Pa.) for missing yesterday’s war powers vote, which was successful, 48-50.
But worth noting: McCormick was with Trump at a Pennsylvania rally. And even if he were at the Capitol, the resolution still would’ve been successful because McConnell was absent.
GOP senators are now “‘yelling’”
at @realDonaldTrump.
Let me offer a helpful suggestion to Republicans:
Why don't you save your breath and just impeach and remove the motherf*cker?
Because you’re gonna have to do it at some point soon—it will be either you or him.
BREAKING: Trump's latest request for a stay DENIED
Now we will be able to move to discovery & get to the bottom of his corrupt, failed attempt to seize this national treasure
The court also put admin on a timeline regarding the tarp…they will need to explain themselves
NEW: Hours after heated exchange with Trump, Sen Bill Cassidy (R-LA) joins Sen Cory Booker (D-NJ) in memo to Todd Blanche seeking answers about Trump’s sweetheart immunity deal with IRS
With the 1st round complete, 3 guys that had eligibility and opted to remain in the draft that were not selected:
Isaiah Evans (Duke)- Agent Thad Foucher of Wasserman
Henri Veesaar (UNC) - Agent Jason Ranne of Wasserman
Meleek Thomas (Arkansas) - Agent Sam Permut of Roc Nation
Trump has turned the White House into a 24/7 corruption operation. This is a national crisis.
Trump thinks the public will stop paying attention.
So I went to the Senate floor to call his bluff. I told the ENTIRE STORY of his 500 days of corruption.
1/ Here it is - in one🧵
Good to see this reversal of Secretary Hegseth's ill-fated policy:
"The Army, Navy and Air Force are once again requiring flu shots for basic trainees."

Trump, Stephen Miller, and Markwayne Mullin have shut down the office responsible for investigating misconduct and abuse inside immigration detention centers.
Yes, you read that correctly. Even after 49 detained immigrants died, these facilities will continue operating—and profiting—with even less oversight.
The message is clear: reform is not enough. Congress must stop funding DHS, pass the Melt ICE Act, and dismantle this abusive system.
seems like only yesterday when self-righteous Americans were shaking their heads in disgust & incredulity over German citizens who'd pretended not to know that mass incarceration & executions were being perpetrated by their Nazi leaders...
"they knew exactly what was going on," the charge went, "& they did nothing. how was that possible?"
well, now we know.
FBI’s search for evidence of voter fraud is reminiscent of OJ Simpson’s quest to find “the real killer.” Both seem to be shamelessly transparent efforts to advance a ridiculously false narrative.

🚨 WOW! CNN's Harry Enten exposes a massive collapse for the White House. Donald Trump suffered a mind-blowing 60-point drop on inflation approval.
He confirms Trump is officially underwater on the economy even among his own 2024 voters. Total failure!
A worker making $50,000 a year contributes to Social Security on 100% of their income.
A CEO making $20 million a year contributes to Social Security on less than 1% of their income.
Instead of raising the retirement age, we should scrap the Social Security tax cap.
Who’s going to tell him?
JD Vance claims it’s a “major milestone” to allow International Atomic Energy Agency inspectors into Iran.
(Yup, from Obama’s Iran Nuclear Deal.)
NOW: In a major blow to Trump, the Senate voted 50–48 to approve a resolution ordering the removal of U.S. forces from hostilities against Iran unless Congress declares war or authorizes the use of military force.
Republican senators Collins, Cassidy, Murkowski, and Paul voted yes. Fetterman was the only Democrat to vote no.
Senators McConnell and McCormick did not vote.
After months of promises about ending Iran's nuclear program, missile development, support for terrorism, and regional aggression, what we have so far is a deal focused on one thing: reopening the Strait of Hormuz. A strait that was open before the war began.
It isn't just Ireland that's helping russia, it's the whole of Europe. This year I travelled across the EU to expose how the shadow fleet transports billions of euros in oil to russias war machine. All of this could have been stopped years ago.
