BREAKING: A newly obtained recording from Dec. 7, 2020 exposes Trump pressuring Georgia House Speaker David Ralston to call a special legislative session to OVERTURN the election he lost.
Trump even coached him on the cover story, telling Ralston to claim it’s “for transparency” and “to uncover fraud.” Then the most damning line:
“Who’s gonna stop you for that?”
Ralston’s reply says it all: “A federal judge, possibly.”
This was a sitting president actively probing how to illegally nullify an election, and joking about whether the courts could stop him.
Anyone still pretending Jan. 6 was a spontaneous protest is lying to themselves.
🇺🇸 BREAKING — New angle released of the Minneapolis federal agent shooting.
This appears to be footage from the opposite side of the incident — likely taken by the woman in the pink jacket seen in the first released video.
"...approached US Border Patrol officers with a 9 mm semi-automatic handgun, seen here."
This is the victim, holding a phone in his right hand before CBP assaults and murders him.
They're lying to you, spitting in the eye of everyone who can see.
Here's a fact check of 13 of the false claims President Trump made at his Cabinet meeting today:
- He claimed he's secured more than $18 trillion in investment commitments since he returned to office. That fictional figure is nearly double the $9.6 trillion figure the White House uses on its website, and a detailed review shows even the smaller WH figure is wildly inflated
- He claimed grocery prices are down. They're up: 2.7% year-over-year as of September, 1.4% since January
- He claimed he is cutting prescription drug prices by 500% to 900%. These numbers make no mathematical sense; they'd mean people would get paid to acquire their medications
- He claimed every military attack on a (purported) drug-smuggling boat saves an average of 25,000 lives. Experts say this number also makes no sense, even aside from the fact the administration hasn’t publicly proven what was on the boats; the US had a reported total of 82,000 overdose deaths last year
- He claimed he has "stopped inflation in its tracks" since January. The September year-over-year inflation rate, 3.0%, was the exact same as the rate in January (actually a tiny bit higher if you go to more decimal places) - and September was the fifth consecutive months the year-over-year rate had increased
- He claimed he inherited the worst inflation of all time. He didn't; he inherited 3% inflation, same as the most recent rate, and even the Biden-era peak, 9.1% in June 2022, wasn't close to an all-time high
- He claimed he ended eight wars. Among other issues, his list includes two supposed wars that did not actually exist during his presidency, Egypt-Ethiopia and Serbia-Kosovo, and a war in the eastern Democratic Republic of Congo that has not actually ended
- He claimed China “doesn’t have gasoline.” It’s true China doesn’t produce enough oil to meet domestic demand, but China has domestic oil and refines oil into gasoline
- He claimed that, under Biden, “By 2030, everybody had to own an electric car.” Biden’s push for EVs did not include a requirement for anybody to buy an electric car or abandon their gas-powered car; Biden tailpipe rules sought to have EVs make up 56% of new passenger vehicles sold in 2032
- He claimed the US gave $350 billion in wartime aid to Ukraine. Not even close. A US government inspector general says $187 billion was appropriated for the war response through June...including billions spent in the US and broader Europe
- He claimed Washington, DC now has "no murders," which wasn't true even before the deadly attack on National Guard troops last week
- He claimed the 2020 election was a fake election. It wasn’t, he lost, this is a lie
- He claimed his big domestic policy bill included “no tax on Social Security.” It didn’t eliminate tax on Social Security; it temporarily increased the standard deduction for people age 65+, which means some people 65+ (and beneficiaries under 65) continue to pay tax on their benefits

MAGA melting down because Trump didn’t get Nobel Peace Price. Here’s a fun fact. You don’t get a Peace Prize when you put the military in your streets. You don’t get a Peace Prize when you treat illegal immigrants as subhuman. You don’t get a Peace Price when you’re a criminal who should be in prison and now you’re attempting to put those who went after you in prison. You don’t get a Peace Prize when you murder innocent people in international waters. You don’t get a Peace Prize when Israel broke a cease fire this week and were still firing missiles on the Palestinians. Finally, you don’t get a Peace Prize when you refuse to release the files of a major international pedophile that could ensure the arrest of many more pedophiles just because you’re one of those pedophiles.
Trump has been weighed and measured and is still found wanting. Today’s a good day.
