Heard a bunch of pops a few minutes ago that didn’t sound like typical DTLA fireworks and I thought to myself, “I hope it wasn’t a shooting”.
If you’re keeping track, that’s a stabbing and a shootout near me in the last couple hours.
Maybe the shootout was WITH the stabbing suspect. I’m not sure. 😅
Guess I’m ordering in tonight again…

The National Pulse is today revealing we were banned from covering latter Trump rallies during the 2024 campaign at the behest of Susie Wiles, because of our criticisms of her and of her campaign co-chief Chris LaCivita, and the campaign didn't ban the BBC, or the New York Times, or Al Jazeera. It banned us
President Trump had said in mid-October there was "zero chance" he was replacing her, and now the woman who called herself the "ice maiden" is gone, and our record since the summer of 2024 is that she and LaCivita were leaking to the Washington Post and The Atlantic, kneecapping MAGA loyalists at Project 2025, and treating the operation like a consultancy, with Wiles a Mercury (big pharma) lobbyist and former DeSantis advisor
On the day she was named chief of staff, two years ago today, we said she "leaks non-stop and works for Big Pharma and Qatar lobbyists Mercury", and last November, with Trump's disapproval at a then-record 63 percent, we wrote that with Wiles "vetoing anything remotely MAGA" the White House had trended back to a corporate-friendly GOP median, then after a brutal off-year election night said he needed to wake up and toss these LOSERS out. Don't say we didn't warn you

You have ruined the credibility of ranked choice voting for all time. The system that all the institutions are trying to push on us as the fairest system and helps resolve polarization.
Then, the first close race you got, you intentionally seek out someone else named Dan Sullivan and run him to confuse the voters.
The only positive side of all this is that you are blatantly destroying credibility in the "democracy" ecosystem pushing structural reform down all our throats. It was never about unity. It was always about a power grab and creating a one-party dictatorship.
This is why the theme of the last two years of the Trump administration will be "Defend the Republic." You guys are pulling a coup on us all in a million directions, and we see it.

Notice when the engine fails, the nose starts veering right. Not much, but the thrust is now asymmetric & the nose wants to go away from the stronger engine (left). The right is *probably* still producing some thrust.
The nose drops a little. That’s the pilot…they aren’t high enough to be on autopilot yet & won’t engage it anytime soon…the autopilot can eventually handle an engine failure, but you have to get it in a position to do so.
If the jet is taking off, the pilots have done the calculations to ensure it will be able to climb & return to the airport if we lose an engine. On very hot days, these numbers don’t always work, so…we just don’t take off. We could easily takeoff under those conditions if we can guarantee we won’t lose an engine, and the chance of that is incredibly small (well less than 1%), but we don’t roll the dice. It can either go on one engine, or we don’t go at all.
It’s going to be busy for a while in that cockpit, but they already briefed what they would do in this exact scenario before they even started the engines. They’ll come back, land and then the airline can rebook everyone. If they have to do a go-around on a single engine for some reason, they’ll be fine…they start at a higher altitude, with more speed and closer to the beginning of the runway than the end.

No. You didn’t. You are absolutely 100% wrong. You did nothing of the sort. @NRSC Senate Republicans under YOUR “leadership” did nothing. Nothing.
You had the chance to begin the process of saving our election system from the radical left. By passing the SAVE America Act. But K Street either didn’t care or opposed it. So why bother, right?
Because the GOP Senate only does what can be monetized via those endless lobbyist dinners / fundraisers. If it can’t raise you money? Probably not worth doing.
And you BERATED @BasedMikeLee for trying to get you to work full weeks, to try to pass the SAVE America Act. Or to work a weekend sometime. Or not to recess for weeks in March and then again recess for a month in August. You and your fellow GOP Senators told him that nobody cared about the SAVE America Act. That he needed to sit down and shut up.
And the American people watched you, day after lazy, do-nothing day. And how you literally could not come up with a single idea to manage the Senate rules to get the bill passed. You just could not figure it out. Because you really didn’t and don’t care. And because you just are clueless.
What’s all the fuss, you say. It’s not a big deal to you that our election system has been taken over and manipulated by the left. That aliens by the hundreds of thousands are on our voter rolls, that there are illegal votes by the thousands in the election results…and that it matters. It matters to the USA. But not to you @LeaderJohnThune
So now, you don’t have to worry about it. You don’t have to be in charge of producing meaningful results for the American people. They just sent you to your room without any supper. I’m sure you must be relieved. You and your fellow GOP colleagues who just flat couldn’t be bothered to figure out how to save our elections.
Well done, you. What a waste of space you’ve been as a leader. That term should never be applied to you or to your inner circle.
Utterly disgusted by the lot of you. You did this. Tuesday was the Thune election. You own it. Hope you’re happy.

Every federal judicial vacancy that can be filled in this lame duck should be filled. Lifetime seats don’t wait for the next majority. All-nighters beat empty benches. Advice and consent is a power—use it while you have it.

Yes. I agree with Benny on this one. Stephen Miller is a blessing. He says the quiet part aloud. He says the stuff that I wish wasn't true because I want every single person to live a life in harmony and safety. Worth a listen:

WHY is the Trump DOJ putting a COVID doctor back on trial?!
Dr. @RonElfenbeinmd saved lives treating COVID patients with monoclonal antibodies. When the government tried to shut him down, he refused to stop.
Federal prosecutors charged him with fraud. A judge acquitted him—but the Biden DOJ appealed and secured a NEW TRIAL.
Now, this January, the TRUMP DOJ is continuing the prosecution.
THIS MUST END.
Dr. Ron Elfenbein and John White join @BrandonStraka for a MUST-SEE interview on @TheBStrakaShow.

Which, begs the question (in the common but incorrect use of that phrase): would that be a good thing in your view?

The most encouraging aspect of Stephen Miller’s promotion to White House Chief of Staff is that he has spent his entire career trying to save America. Not lobbying. Not consulting. Not surrounding himself with scumbags who will only use their access to him to enrich themselves. All he cares about is saving America.

The USAID was NEVER defunded.
They changed the name to Foreign Aid, hid it in the State Department and funded it with the full $49.9 billion per year.
Marco Rubio led the public to believe that they ended the USAID but all they did was change the name and hide it.
