BREAKING: In a stunning defeat for Donald Trump, Trump-endorsed candidate for Governor in Iowa Randy Feenstra has lost his primary. Trump’s weakness is on full display tonight inside the GOP.
BREAKING: Republican Senate Majority Leader John Thune enrages MAGA by saying that "we don't need a weaponized" Director of National Intelligence after Trump nominated a total "nut" for the crucial job.
This is Trump's worst pick to date and everyone knows it...
"Bill Pulte is one of the worst members of the President's team and has convinced Trump to do more stupid stuff than anyone else in the past year," right-wing commentator Erick Erickson wrote on X.
And it appears that Thune, while avoiding such blunt words, may agree—
“If they nominate him to take the position permanently, he’ll have to go through a confirmation process and hearings and everything else, so, we’ll see,” Thune told reporters, throwing cold water on the idea of an accelerated confirmation process.
Trump's pick Bill Pulte has no prior intelligence experience and is widely regarded as nothing more than a regime hatchet man. This is the same Bill Pulte who, during his time leading the Federal Housing Finance Agency, made sham criminal referrals against political enemies of Trump like New York Attorney General Letitia James and Senator Adam Schiff.
"I think he's a nut," one House Republican told Politico last year.
"The guy's just a little too big for his britches," said another.
Thune was asked if he's worried that Pulte will "weaponize" the DNI (which is exactly why he was chosen) and the senator said: “We don’t need a weaponized DNI, we need professionals there.”
“Again, I just heard about it. I’ll try and get more information about the current state of their thinking about that position,” he continued. “If he’s somebody they want in that position permanently, he’s got a — as you all know — a lengthy road ahead of him.”
Hopefully, that "lengthy road" leads to a dead end in which Pulte's nomination is rejected. The American people deserve a DNI who will take his job seriously and keep our country safe, not a MAGA operative who will waste their time and our tax dollars chasing conspiracy theories.
Please ❤️ and share if you oppose Pulte's nomination!
BREAKING: In a moment of surrender, Donald Trump is officially backing off his plan to use taxpayer dollars to fund January 6th Insurrectionists. Good.
BREAKING: In a stunning moment, Republican Congresswoman Kat Cammack just went onto Fox News and ripped apart Donald Trump's anti-weaponization slush fund for January 6th Insurrectionists. When Republicans are going on Fox to do this, you know Trump is in trouble.
BREAKINGNEWS Just so MAGA is aware the removal of Trump's name from the Kennedy Center is a permanent injunction. This can NOT be appealed. Trump has 14 days to remove his name. 🚨

This is a 6-minute Republican video outlining Ken Paxton’s corruption.
This now “unlisted” YouTube video was repeatedly sent out by the NRSC. It’s devastating.
BREAKING: In a humiliating move, Donald Trump's Chief of Staff just asked JD Vance to get off of Twitter because he was behaving beneath the office of the Vice Presidency. MAGA is in extreme disarray. Good.
@allenanalysis 💯 Pres. Trump committed treason by inciting a riot to stay in power.
💯 His rioters don't get to be rewarded with reparations on top of an undeserved pardon.

BREAKING: HOLY SH*T! Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito's son secretly received a top job inside the Trump administration while Alito was ruling on massive cases involving the White House.
This is corruption, nepotism, and in-kind bribery all wrapped up in one...
Philip Alito, the son of far-right Justice Samuel Alito, was given an appointment as a lawyer at the Treasury Department early on in Trump's second term. His father was aware of the appointment and did nothing to block it, unsurprising since Alito has zero interest in avoiding conflicts of interest or maintaining the legitimacy of the court.
This is the same Samuel Alito who was caught accepting bribes from billionaire Paul Singer in the form of luxury jet travel and an expensive fishing vacation. And that's just what we know about.
According to NOTUS, four government officials confirmed that Alito's son is working inside the office of the general counsel, which supports Treasury Secretary Bessent. Notus described the arrangement as a "closely guarded secret."
Philip Alito, in an apparent effort to maintain a low profile, does not have a public resume, LinkedIn profile, or a presence on the Treasury Department. Most of the images available of him online are older, from when his father was first appointed to the court. He's a ghost in the system, getting paid by our tax dollars, and presumably whispering in his father's ear to tilt rulings in Trump's favor.
“Everybody knew who he was. I think it’s fair to say he kept a pretty low profile. I kind of had the impression that he was kind of a little bit sheepish about his celebrity affiliation. You’d go into a meeting and if people were introducing themselves by first and last name, he’d just say ‘Phil,’ not Phil Alito. He’s a pretty soft-spoken guy,” one official stated.
The efforts to keep his identity shielded from not only the public, but his co-workers, proves that he knows what he's doing is deeply improper. If there was nothing to hide, he wouldn't need to keep his head down. But Alito, and presumably his father, know that this appointment further damages what little credibility the Supreme Court has left.
“There’s no doubt he got that position because of who he is,” another official told NOTUS. “[Advisers] are in all the meetings, so they knew all the issues across the board.”
Damningly, the younger Alito was working his Treasury job when the court ruled on Trump's tariffs. While the administration was ultimately defeated, Justice Alito joined with Brett Kavanaugh to rule in favor of Trump. At no point in the process did he disclose in court documents that his son was working for one side, nor did he recuse himself. The administration is insisting that the younger Alito had no role in the case, but this White House lies through its teeth at every turn.
And the problem hasn't diminished in the slightest. Trump's $1.776 billion slush fund for January 6th insurrectionists, MAGA loyalist, and Republican child molesters is getting hammered by lawsuits right now. When one of these cases inevitably ends up in front of the Supreme Court, Justice Alito will once again be ruling on a case in which his son has a vested interest in a particular outcome.
These crooks are laughing in our faces as they line their pockets, rig the system, and set their children up to do the same for the next generation.
Phillip Alito must be fired and Samuel Alito must be impeached!
Please ❤️ and share to demand that the proverbial heads start rolling!

BREAKING: In an incredible moment, CNN just acknowledged that Ken Paxton, the Republican nominee for Senate in Texas has a long wrap sheet, including being prosecuted by Republicans. Republicans are going to regret nominating this crook. Wow.
MAGA HEADS ARE GOING TO EXPLODE 🤯
🚨 A new Cato study found immigrants reduced US deficits by $14.5 TRILLION since 1994.
Not increased.
Reduced.
Even undocumented immigrants were estimated to have reduced deficits by at least $1.7 trillion.
The very people Republicans keep villainizing are working, paying taxes, and helping keep the economy afloat while billionaires and corporations dodge taxes with loopholes their lobbyists wrote themselves.
The Republican Party quietly deleted their own ad attacking Ken Paxton's record on crime... because Paxton is now the Republican Party's nominee to represent Texas in the U.S. Senate.
Figured if the ad is important enough to delete, it's important enough to see...
