Massie: "I think it's ironic that we control the House, Senate, Supreme Court, and the White House, and we're yelling 'election fraud'? I mean, we won all the damn elections."
New: A top White House aide intervened to get a $620 million Pentagon loan for a company tied to Donald Trump Jr.
“The call came from the White House: We have to get this done,” said one person involved.

Trump's approval rating is in the low 30s. He couldn't bully Paxton out of TXSen. He lost a massive referendum in Virginia. Republicans haven't won a single special election. He's getting dog walked in Iran negotiations. Nice wins in the Indiana state senate primary tho.

Beware of any Christian movement that demands the government be an instrument of God's wrath but never a source of God's charity, mercy, or compassion.
Asked whether Americans should be worried about retaliatory attacks at home, Trump acknowledges the possibility:
“I guess,” he says
“Like I said, some people will die. When you go to war, some people will die.” https://t.co/8l5XEzlGDF
Ossoff: We were told that MAGA was for working-class Americans. But this is a government of, by, and for the ultra-rich. It’s the wealthiest Cabinet ever. This is the Epstein class. They are the elites they pretend to hate. If you’re Steve Bannon, how do you sell any of this? He’s literally closing rural hospitals to cut taxes for George Soros.
My problem with the “he wouldn't actually do it” and “institutional checks will step in to stop him” arguments regarding Greenland is that we are in this position precisely because, at every prior stage, he did do it and institutional checks failed to constrain this lunatic.
The dipshit who wants to invade Greenland just mistakenly called it “Iceland” in front of an audience of global leaders and then claimed Greenlanders are calling him “Daddy.”
I ask again: when will Republicans push for removal of this demented clod?
The leaders of France & Canada are giving speeches about how the world needs to reorient towards more stable democracies like theirs. Denmark is telling us to fuck off. Meanwhile our president is a rambling mess at this presser, speaking as if none of that is happening. Bizarre.
Selling stolen oil and putting billions of dollars in a bank in Qatar to be spent without Congressional approval is not Constitutional.
Only Congress can appropriate money.
The President can’t legally create a second Treasury overseas for his own piggy bank.
Wake up Congress.
This has been the plan all along.
- Foment violence and chaos in the streets of MN
- Implement the Insurrection Act
- Declare Martial Law
- Suspend elections
MAGA 2021: “You can’t tell me to wear a mask.” “You can’t force a vaccine.” “You can’t make me stay home.”
MAGA 2026: “Just follow orders.” “Have your papers ready.” “Comply and nothing bad happens.”
You can commit all the fraud you'd like so long as you're rich, connected, and don't belong to an ethnic group that @StephenM wants to expel from the country
