10 years ago today GOP Sen. Mike Lee: “If anyone spoke to my wife, or my daughter, or my mother, or any of my five sisters, the way Mr. Trump has spoken to women, I wouldn’t hire that person, wouldn’t want to be associated with that person, and I certainly don’t think I’d be comfortable hiring that person to be the leader of the free world.”

Yes. The Stop Insider Trading Act included voter ID requirements drawn from the SAVE America Act. It barred only members of Congress and their families from buying new individual stocks (with advance notice for sales of existing ones) and did not apply to the President. Democrats rejected it over the limited stock restrictions, exclusion of the executive branch, and the attached voter ID language.

Marsha Blackburn conspired with Trump to overturn the 2020 election that Trump lost in a landslide. Marsha Blackburn is an America hating SKANK and deserves to be locked up for life.

Donald Trump holds the highest documented total from modern fact-checkers. The Washington Post recorded 30,573 false or misleading claims in his first term. Systematic full-term tallies like that do not exist for earlier presidents, and available counts for others are far lower.

It’s always a good day when Trump admits how weak he is, whether it’s saying he can’t overcome Biden’s actions, can’t influence Congress, can’t end wars, or can’t stand up to a reporter. Weak, weak, weak is all he has.

So, parading Natalie Harp around while his wife isn't present IS classy?

Eric, the big oil savings piggy bank is being used by Trump right now. He's taking out oil to help with war problems so gas stays cheaper. The plan is 172 million barrels total. Over 130 million are already out, leaving the bank at its lowest in over 40 years. To put oil back later, we need the special kind of crude that is medium weight and not too full of sulfur so it fits the caves properly.

The President of the United States offered bribes for votes and you people act like this is normal. Don’t you EVER lecture anyone over ethics again. The GOP is the party of lawless nihilism.

🤣 There were average 130 ships a day passing through the Strait before the war. Sorry to tell you but 40 isn't 90% of 130. And the 40 ships claim likely isn't even true, like Trump and Hegseth's "95% of drones and missiles destroyed, Iranian military gone" lies.

Great. So where exactly do schools apply for the federal funding needed to implement this vanity project? Asking for teachers and school districts nationwide that may now be expected to replace or revise textbooks, atlases, classroom maps, wall charts, worksheets, assessments, digital curriculum, LMS content, GIS resources, library materials, and teacher-created lessons that still say “Lake Ontario.” And who pays for the staff time required to identify, edit, reprint, reorder, and redistribute all of it? Surely the administration that lectures everyone about government waste has already budgeted for these completely unnecessary costs… right?... right?????

It’s literally her job to be “privy” to this information.
Q: Which specific countries have been in talks with the US about stepping up beef imports? BROOKE ROLLINS: I am not privy to talk about that

The crime drop is good news. But turning it into “Republicans made America safe again” is partisan bullshit. FBI data show violent crime was already falling 3.0% in 2023 and 4.5% in 2024, before Trump returned to office, then fell another 9.3% in 2025. Give the thousands of federal, state, local and tribal officers doing the work some credit instead of turning them into campaign props. And “Democrats want to defund law enforcement” as a blanket statement is the same tired bullshit. Some Democrats embraced that slogan. Plenty of us never did. Safer communities should be something Americans celebrate together…. not another excuse for Mike Johnson to rewrite history and divide the country.

BUNKER BOY BUSTED! Trump's latest excuse for his $600 million ballroom IMPLODES as officials reveal the WHITE HOUSE already has a nuclear-proof bunker! It has a massive nuclear-hardened bunker which buried more than 60 feet it’s underground. LIAR!

Never before in the history of the presidency have we had someone who has no interest in actual data or science and just spouts conspiracy theories like a random drunk you’d encounter in a small town bar. Embarrassing doesn’t even begin to describe this travesty.
