Enough beating up on WNBA star player @CaitlinClark22.

If competitors are jealous of her skills, they should play better.

If they are jealous of her helping the league gain millions of viewers and dollars, they should spend less time targeting Caitlin and more time enhancing the game’s reputation.

But I seriously doubt that’s all it’s about.

Today @FaulknerFocus I was ready for some honest thoughts about racial targeting of Caitlin Clark. Here’s my guest @GiannoCaldwell

*PS save all the “Harris isnt really black” hate for the hair stylist who wrangles my ‘fro on the daily.

The Republican Senate just performed its own public execution in a hotel ballroom in Rapid City and then had the audacity to act surprised when the body twitched.

They did not simply deny Scott Presler entry to their little donor dinner at the South Dakota state convention.

They revealed the clinical truth of what they have become: a cartel of status-anxious narcissists so pathologically terrified of autonomous effectiveness on their own side that they will slam the door on the single most productive grassroots operative this movement has fielded in a generation rather than risk him demanding they actually do the job they were sent to Washington to perform.

This was not an administrative fuck-up.

This was a calculated act of social dominance…a textbook display of malignant group pathology in which the only acceptable response to loyalty that becomes demanding is erasure and humiliation.

The message they broadcast was not subtle.

It was neurological.

It was delivered straight into the attachment systems of every volunteer, every small-dollar donor, every door-knocker who still believed the Republican Party existed to fight rather than to manage.

Shut the fuck up.

Know your place.

We do not work for you.

We work for the donor calendar, the cocktail circuit, the administrative-state equilibrium that keeps our sinecures intact.

Your effort, your results, your inconvenient insistence on proof-of-citizenship and borders that actually function are now classified as threats to our comfort.

The base is no longer an asset to be mobilized. It is a liability to be contained.

This is betrayal trauma made visible and it carries a clinical cost these cowards have not begun to calculate.

Trust does not erode under these conditions.

It calcifies into something colder, more precise, more lethal.

The high-agency citizens who built the turnout machines are not becoming more moderate.

They are becoming more diagnostic. They are running new simulations in which the men in bespoke suits are no longer allies who occasionally disappoint.

They are obstacles that must be removed or bypassed if anything resembling the republic is to survive.

History has already written the next chapter for men who mistake their insulation for invulnerability.

The Roman optimates told the populares to sit down and accept their station.

The French aristocracy responded to the cahiers de doléances with procedural contempt and donor-class disdain.

The British Tories spent a generation triangulating while assuring their base that the institutions still functioned.

Every single time the result was the same: the base did not become more compliant.

It became more accurate in its assessment of who actually serves whom.

The Senate Republicans who participated in or permitted this public degradation of Scott Presler have just accelerated that process by years.

They have handed the base fresh data and fresh rage wired directly into the nervous system.

They will not sleep cleanly again.

Every future closed-door meeting, every donor dinner, every primary challenge will carry the ghost of that slammed door in Rapid City.

The calculation has changed.

The men who thought they could silence the most effective soldier on their own side without consequence have just taught the entire base a lesson in institutional betrayal that no amount of campaign rhetoric can unteach.

The full forensic dissection of this pathology…the neurological rewiring, the historical pattern, the terminal arrogance of a leadership class that fears its own base more than it fears the enemy…is now live.

Read it. Let it cut.

The reckoning they triggered is no longer theoretical.

It is already counting.

[ThePersistence @ScottPresler]

Since our movement is trending right now, let me introduce myself:

My name is Scott Presler.

I’m an Eagle Scout & son of a retired Navy Captain.

I moved to Pennsylvania in 2024 & launched an organization for the sole purpose of helping to re-elect President Trump.

I’ve spent the last decade of my life registering tens of thousands of voters, electing Republicans to all levels of office, & helping to build up Republican structures from the county & state levels.

I’ve traveled to over 40 states to grow the Republican Party.

For the last 6 months, I’ve met with members of Congress to pass the SAVE America Act — which would require photo voter ID & proof of citizenship to vote.

What I’m advocating for has overwhelming support from the American people.

Yet I was not allowed entry to a dinner last night in Rapid City, South Dakota, because Senate Majority Leader Thune was present.

When they go after me, they are really coming for you.

I will not be bullied, pressured, intimidated & I won’t stop pushing for the country-saving SAVE America Act.

Thank you for having my back — peacefully.

[MAGA Voice @MAGAVoice]

Would be a shame if this guy became famous on 𝕏 for kicking out Scott Presler from the South Dakota State Convention: “Get the hell outta here”

“I’m the assh*le saying you can’t come in”

This fraud Katie Phang was on Fox News claiming to be a conservative until they didn’t hire her - so then she became a woke lefty and got hired by MSNBC.

You literally couldn’t find a bigger fraud in all of media.

She knows I know.

[LHGrey™️ @Grey_0G]

The Republican establishment has grown so fucking arrogant they no longer even pretend to hide their contempt for the people who elected them.

They smile for the cameras, take the votes, cash the checks, and then turn around and treat the base like peasants at the gate…unwelcome, inconvenient, and easily dismissed by whatever minor functionary they’ve empowered to do their dirty work.

Scott Presler just caught it on video.

A Thune crony…or at least a creature of that entire insulated ecosystem…looked one of this movement’s most relentless, effective organizers in the eye and snarled the quiet part out loud for the world to hear:

“Get the hell outta here.” “I’m the asshole saying you can’t come in.”

Let that land.

Let it burn straight through whatever polite fiction you were still clinging to.
This is not a staffer having a bad day.

This is not an isolated lapse in “optics.”

This is the unfiltered id of a political class that has spent years insulating itself from the very voters who dragged it out of irrelevance and handed it power.

The same class that turns the Senate into a procedural graveyard for anything the base actually demands.

The same class that lets consultants and lobbyists and lifetime functionaries treat the people who win their elections like problems to be managed rather than partners to be respected.

The contempt is not accidental.

It is structural.

It is the psychological defense mechanism of elites who sense…correctly…that the base is no longer content to be placated with rhetoric while the actual agenda of sovereignty, borders, and accountability dies in committee.

What you are about to read is not another polite autopsy of RINO behavior.

It is a forensic examination of that contempt in its natural habitat…its origins in elite capture, its transmission downward through staff and donors and event gatekeepers, its inevitable collision with a base that has finally stopped asking permission to be angry.

It names the pathology without euphemism. It traces the fracture in the social contract between Republican officeholders and the people who actually deliver their victories.

And it leaves the reader with the only question that still matters: when the door is slammed in your face by the very people you put in power, what the fuck are you prepared to do about it?

If you are still telling yourself that “our guys” are different, that the Senate is a fortress for the base rather than against it, that basic respect is too much to expect from the machine you keep feeding with your labor and your loyalty…this piece will finish the job of disabusing you.

If you already feel the rage in your bones, it will give you the precise language to weaponize it.

The mask is off.

The contempt is on record.

The only remaining variable is whether we keep accepting the role of peasants at the gate…or whether we burn the fucking gate down.

🇳🇴🤯 A remarkable World Cup coincidence: in 1994, Erik Thorstvedt, Alf-Inge Haaland and Gøran Sørloth were part of Norway’s squad at the World Cup in the United States. Thirty-two years later, at the 2026 World Cup in North America, their sons — Kristian Thorstvedt, Erling Haaland and Alexander Sørloth — are representing Norway on the same stage.

🚨🧵 MAJOR BREAKING: German government has been grooming DSA leaders for over a decade, and nobody noticed? 🇩🇪

Last night, Darializa Avila Chevalier — endorsed by NYC-DSA (Democratic Socialists of America) — beat a five-term incumbent to win New York's 13th congressional district.

@AsraNomani has been reporting on their ties to Cuba and the China/Singham network. But what’s not known is DSA’s deep ties to the German government.

The Rosa Luxemburg Stiftung (RLS) is the political foundation of Die Linke — the German parliamentary party formed from the merger of the Party of Democratic Socialism, itself the legal successor to East Germany's ruling Marxist party, the SED.

Under German law, every party in the Bundestag gets a taxpayer-funded foundation. Die Linke's share is approximately EUR70MM annually.

Most German party foundations sponsor conferences, publish research, and fund exchange programs. What RLS-NYC did was put its own staff inside DSA's organizational leadership — concurrently — for over a decade.

In 2012, RLS opened a New York office. EIN 45-3658022. Their own annual report states: "With the help of funds from the BMZ and the Foreign Office, the Rosa-Luxemburg-Stiftung maintains a network of international relationships. This includes financing its foreign offices."

Over the last 13 years, Berlin has sent millions to this office.

Despite these ties, no FARA registration for the Rosa Luxemburg Stiftung was identified in the Department of Justice database.

As always, patience as I pull together the thread.👇

🚨What happened in New York's elections is a warning for the rest of America. We must reject the false promises of socialism. The promises of 'FREE' always come with a price."

@marcorubio in 2020:

"At the core of DSA is Marxism is to trade your individual security for welfare states. This is a big deal for America. Democratic socialism at its core is Marxism. Individual freedom exchanged for government control… and you don’t get it back. Millions have fled countries under Democratic Socialist rule."

Wake up, AMERICA!!

I'll have more to say about it later. My college roommate and one of my best friends Joe Pitts was on my wing for this one.

God Bless America and long live The Republic.

SAVE ACT: The South Dakota GOP just trespassed Scott Presler from its own convention, paid ticket & all, because he criticized John Thune on Facebook. Matt Bruner kicked Scott out because of his criticism of Thune's failure to pass the Save America Act.
