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.”

PSA: Right-wing nationalists, right-wing populists, postliberals, and burn-it-all-down types are not “conservatives”. Not all Republicans are conservatives. Words have meaning, and there are real differences between all of these labels. In January 2026, Benny Johnson called Jake Lang a “conservative activist” and publicly defended him. I’ll link the tweet ⬇️. Lang is a January 6 defendant that assaulted police officers — he is ON VIDEO beating them with a stick — who spent years in pretrial detention before being given a pardon. He also has a well-documented record of racist & white-supremacist rhetoric. The guy is a piece of 💩. Benny’s support came after Lang was attacked while staging confrontations in front of hostile crowds, a routine he has repeated several times. He is a chaos agent. Frustrating, but unsurprising from someone like Benny who has long treated the “big tent” GOP as a necessity rather than the liability it has become. Shockingly, Seth Dillon just made the same mistake by pinning the rise of Andrew freaking Tate on “conservatives.” NO. The conservatives I know never backed the Tate brothers, because they are about as far from conservatism as it gets. I personally have spent years correcting people my age who treated Tate as part of the movement and explaining why he was not. Seth should 100% know better. Do not hand the word “conservative” to a right-wing populist current that has spent more than a decade trying to redefine it from inside the GOP. Not now. Not ever.

New: The government doesn’t track how often immigration officers detain U.S. citizens. So ProPublica did. We’ve found more than 500 Americans who were held against their will during this Trump administration. propub.li/4zmkdnX

FOX: In your home state only 25% of fourth graders can read proficiently… So, why should we think the government will do a great job with healthcare? El-Sayed: Those public schools are deeply under funded we pattern it based on property tax and property value. We have a great military because we choose to invest in it. Imagine we chose to invest in healthcare. I love America, I believe in American exceptionalism. The idea we have mediocre healthcare system when we are the richest country in the world, that is a choice we make…

BREAKING OVERNIGHT: Simon Andriesz, the British banker who revealed Howard Lutnick’s ties to child sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein, has been found dead of an alleged "suicide.” Lutnick, who also profited heavily off 9/11, was later tapped as Trump's Commerce Secretary where he's since made billions for his company by trading on tariff discounts.

Tonight at Gillette Stadium, Zach Bryan, one of the biggest country music artists in the world, wore a Free Palestine shirt onstage. Gillette Stadium is owned by Robert Kraft, who pushed Ed Sheeran and his promoter to drop Macklemore from his tour. Bryan isn’t just a major country artist. He is one of the biggest live draws in music, filling stadiums across the United States and in major cities around the world. Bryan served eight years on active duty in the US Navy and served overseas in Bahrain and Djibouti. Members of Bryan’s band also wore shirts supporting the Palestinian cause, including his drummer, who wore a jersey honoring the memory of Hind Rajab. Zach Bryan has a second show at Gillette Stadium tomorrow, Saturday night.

Well, this explains a few things. New research links stronger Christian nationalist views with lower cognitive ability, even after accounting for education. Turns out critical thinking may be Christian nationalism’s natural enemy. psypost.org/lower-cognitive-…

From a friend… If anyone wonders why you or I are liberal Democrats show them this post. Women: "Can I have birth control?" Republican Controlled Congress: "No." Women: "I couldn't get birth control so I got pregnant. Can I have an abortion?" Republican Controlled Congress: "No." Women: "You prevented me from having an abortion so I'm carrying the fetus, but my employer won't provide reasonable accommodations and is threatening to fire me. Would you please pass the Pregnant Workers Fairness Act?" Republican Controlled Congress: "No" Women: "I had the baby, but I'm out of work. Can I have WIC and food stamps until I get back on my feet?" Republican Controlled Congress: "No." Women: "I found a job, but it doesn't offer me insurance. Can I have government guaranteed insurance?" Republican Controlled Congress: "No." Women: "My kid got sick and I got fired because I missed time caring for him/her. Can I get unemployment?" Republican Controlled Congress: "No." Women: "I'm having a hard time getting my kid from school consistently. Can we fund after-school programs?" Republican Controlled Congress: "No." Women: "I'm prepared to work to support my family. Can you make sure that a full-time job's minimum wage is enough to do that?" Republican Controlled Congress: "No. But what's the matter with you and your family, that working two jobs can't lift you out of poverty? And what kind of a mother are you, letting someone else watch your child while you work? If your child doesn't do well in school or gets in trouble, it's entirely your fault. You shouldn't have had a child if you weren't prepared to take care of him/her." ~Via Claudia Powell

Q: “Does Donald Trump — and the Trump administration — have a corruption problem?” SCOTT JENNINGS: 🤷🏼 Nothing you watch this week will be funnier than paid @CNN propagandist @ScottJenningsKY pretending not to know about Trump’s self-dealings. Give this stooge an Oscar. 🏆🤥

The trade is over. The tech cabal and elitists know the midterms are about to be a bloodbath and have begun distancing themselves. They bet made their billions and pretty much destroyed the country, and now they’ll pretend to be the smartest men in the room.

White nationalist and racist, often present their views as ‘reasonable’, ‘patriotic’ or ‘common sense They think just because they’re white they can’t be immigrants. So they’re only against brown and black immigrants
