BREAKING: In a stunning moment, Republican Senator Joni Ernst just HAMMERED Pete Hegseth for deceiving Donald Trump. MAGA is completely fracturing in front of our eyes. Let’s go.

BREAKING: NO MERCY! Rep. Robert Garcia, incoming House Oversight Chairman, reveals a list of MAGA crooks that he's going to target — and it's a doozy. They can run, but they can't hide now... "On Susie Wiles, there's been a lot over the last several days questioning whether or not there was a pay-for-play, whether she was lobbying on behalf of special interest groups while acting as chief of staff," said a reporter. "Do you plan to investigate Susie Wiles and call her before the committee in the new majority?" "We're already looking at Susie Wiles," Garcia said bluntly. "First, let's go back to the Epstein investigation. You have Susie Wiles in the Situation Room with the Vice President, JD Vance, talking about Ghislaine Maxwell, trying to exonerate Donald Trump! Strategizing about how to continue the White House cover-up. And so we've already been looking at Susie Wiles. With all of this new information that's come out, it is incredibly serious." Wiles was, by all accounts, the true hidden power inside the Trump White House this term. She avoided public appearances and kept a low profile while pulling the strings inside the most corrupt, fascist administration in American history. The pay-for-play scandal has picked up steam since Wiles departed her role and was replaced by white nationalist Stephen Miller. She's accused of selling access to the Trump White House while simultaneously serving corporate interests in return for political donations. Her former firm, Ballard Partners, raked in a jaw-dropping $186 million in lobbying revenue during Trump's second term. That alone is worthy of a deep, well-funded investigation. On top of that, a former RFK Jr. adviser has claimed that Wiles blocked crucial healthcare reforms because the Republican Party wanted to keep raking in donations from sugar companies. At the same time, she was the core power nexus inside the White House. She likely had a broad awareness of all of the crimes and graft flowing through the Oval Office, even the schemes that she didn't have a direct hand in. If we can uncover criminal behavior on her part, it's possible we could flip her to expose all of the dirty laundry. "And so it's not just going to be Oversight, but I think you're going to see some action from some other committees, particularly as it relates to any sort of conversations that the former chief of staff was having around donors and money in exchange for policy choices," predicted Garcia. "I think it's very serious." "So just because you're no longer in the administration, whether your name is Susie Wiles, whether it's Kimberly Guilfoyle, whether it is Corey Lewandowski, whether it is Kristi Noem, you are being investigated, and there needs to be accountability in that space," he added. This is why we voted blue. Democrats have subpoena power come January and you can be damn sure we're going to use it. Accountability has come to Washington and soon MAGA will be coming to a prison near you! Please ❤️ and share if you support Garcia's efforts!

🚨 WHOA: In a stunning blow to Trump, Republican Rep. Don Bacon says he’s leaning on voting to impeach Pete Hegseth. BACON: I’m not the only one. There’s a bunch of us talking about it… On Iran… Trump never sought bipartisan support, which was a mistake.” MAGA is cracking.

🚨Trump’s press conference descends into absolute pandemonium as he attacks Kaitlan Collins: TRUMP: “Massie's a loser, just like you're a loser at CNN, just like your ratings are a loser. Massie is a loser, stone cold loser.” He’s losing his mind over what’s happening and it’s glorious.

It ran 16 minutes, he took questions only from friendly outlets seated up front, and Trump gave him an “A” PLUS, PLUS, PLUS right after. Before any of it started, a Pentagon official told reporters they’d be “removed physically” if they got out of line, which the Associated Press’s Pentagon correspondent said was the first time any of them could remember being threatened like that. Democrats have now flipped 549 state legislative seats and control more trifectas than Republicans do. And FIFA insiders expect the organization’s president to be subpoenaed as soon as January over his dealings with Trump. Read it all in the Really American Substack: reallyamerican.substack.com/…

BREAKING: LOL! Republican Rep. Thomas Massie plows ahead with impeaching Pete Hegseth and mocks him for calling everyone "fat and gay" and misquoting the Bible "Quentin Tarantino fashion." He may be conservative, but man, we like this guy... "I feel sorry for the lawyers at the White House. They construct, like somebody goes in there and says, twist the law, do whatever you can, we want to go in and kidnap a foreign leader and take their oil and make some legal construct that would make this legal," Massie said at a press conference, referring to the kidnapping of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro. "Remember they had the DOJ involved, Pam Bondi was involved in this, in the press conference for this war that they say wasn't a war. President Trump, I think it was just yesterday, said that Hegseth won two wars, Iran and Venezuela," he said. The Venezuelan operation, a flagrant violation of international law that Hegseth cheerled, is just one of the countless reasons that this Defense Secretary needs to be impeached. Also at the top of the list are the failed Iran War launched on behalf of Israel and the targeted murdering of fishermen in the Caribbean under the facade of combating drug smuggling. Massie introduced articles of impeachment earlier today, accusing Hegseth of waging war on the Constitution. "Okay so, this is why I feel sorry somewhat for the lawyers at the White House," Massie said at his press conference. "They come up with this tortured language so that maybe Hegseth won't get impeached, and then the President goes out and uses all the terms the lawyers told him not to do. He commits candor. He just tells the truth, and he told the truth. This is a war. This is not a police activity to interdict drugs or to stop a drug ring. It was to kidnap a foreign leader so we could take their oil. And then he goes out, like the next day the President does with Hegseth standing there with him saying, 'well, we did this to get the oil, and now a bunch of our big corporations are going to get really rich off of this oil. So yay for us.'" But that wasn't even the best part of the presser. Hegseth has announced that he will be holding a press conference tomorrow, during which we can safely presume that he will insist on his own innocence and rail against the "woke left." Massie isn't worried. "We saw the Secretary of scheduled his own press conference that they're going to let him deliver a rebuttal and to that point I hope he addresses the eight articles and doesn't get up and misquote the Bible in Quentin Tarantino fashion and do some pull-ups and you know call everybody fat and gay like for being for this impeachment," joked Massie. "I may have just given you half his speech. I don't know. "But I would like to see him go through the eight articles of impeachment and just make the argument from a podium," continued Massie. "You can use notes. Get the lawyers to help you. Tell us why you are not guilty of each of these eight articles of impeachment." Of course, Hegseth will not confront the articles in an itemized fashion because he has no defense. Those articles are: 1. Illegally initiating the war against Iran. 2. Defying Congress over the Iran War. 3. Exceeding the legal time limits for war. 4. Disregarding laws protecting civilians. 5. The extrajudicial killings in the Caribbean and Pacific. 6. Suppressing the free speech of Democrat Mark Kelly by abusing his Defense Department to intimidate and retaliate against the senator for urging military personnel to refuse unlawful orders. 7. Illegally kidnapping Maduro. 8. Illegally waging war against Yemen. Do you disagree with any of these articles? We certainly don't! Please like and share if you support impeaching Hegseth.
Well Massie nails Hegseth on a cross with this characterization!

BREAKING: CALLING ALL BONE SPURS...LOL! Anonymous artists put a golden statue of Trump clutching his “bone spur” foot on the National Mall just in time for Veterans Day. There has been no other American president as obsessed with creating grand monuments to himself as Donald Trump. Trump loves to rename existing arts centers after himself (even if they’re already named after someone else), wants to build a triumphal arch to be named after him in a place where no one else wants it, and he particularly loves golden statues of himself. We don’t think he will love this statue created and placed on the National Mall today by the anonymous art collective The Secret Handshake. The collective installed a gold statue on Monday called “The Foot Soldier,” showing Trump sitting down and grabbing his right foot, a reference to the bone spurs that kept him out of Vietnam. It stands near the National Gallery of Art’s Sculpture Garden and will stay up through Veterans Day. The inscription on it is brutal. It honors Trump as “a soldier in spirit, who marched to the front lines of dodging the draft, armed with a perfect diagnosis of bone spurs.” It salutes “a leader who knows you can’t spell sacrifice without ‘I,’” and “a warrior who reminds us that sometimes when you’re called to stand up, it’s best to just sit down and rest your feet.” The plaque also quotes something Trump himself said in 2013: “I can be very military.” Here’s the history behind the biting satire. Trump got five deferments during the Vietnam War: four were student deferments for school, but a fifth was based on a long-disputed bone spur diagnosis. Other young men his age without a father willing to allegedly bribe a doctor for a spurious diagnosis were sent to Vietnam in his stead. The statue also came with a mascot. A 6-foot-tall big toe named “Toey” stood next to it and mocked the president, according to The Washington Post. “Draft dodger? I hardly know her,” Toey said. Then Toey did a Trump impression: “I’m the biggest toe. The hugest toe. Huge. Hugest toe. Largest toe that anyone’s ever seen.” The White House did not see the humor. Spokesperson Davis Ingle said, “Trump Derangement Syndrome is a sick and incurable disease that has rotted the brains of these Democrat activists.” The artists responded: “We are honored that the White House has diagnosed us with Trump Derangement Syndrome, though we have checked and it seems like that does not qualify for us to skip out on the latest war he’s created.” They also went straight at Iran. They said they wanted to honor “a simpler time when the President would do anything in his power to avoid military action.” Then they added: “If only his prescription for bone spurs had lasted long enough for him to consider them when invading Iran.” That’s the part that stings. The man who found a way out of his own war has spent about nine months sending other Americans into one. At least 19 have been confirmed dead and more than 820 wounded. The Army has been practicing how to dig mass graves on the battlefield. Sailors have tried to take their own lives during deployment. This isn’t the group’s first piece. The Secret Handshake has also previously built statues about Trump’s friendship with Jeffrey Epstein, and a giant sarcastic “participation” trophy for the Iran war. This Veterans Day, honor the people who actually served. The man who sat it out with a sore foot doesn’t need any monuments to help people remember his cowardice. Please like and share if you agree.

He appointed himself. Years of licking Donald Trump’s boots has brought Stephen Miller to a place where he’s now the most powerful man in the executive branch. The question is why? Read more from @JoelKFGO: lincolnproject.substack.com/…

It's Official: Lauren Boebert is OUT of Congress. teapaw.org/grantstern/status/2119…
Watching the moment CNN calls the House race in favor of Eileen Laubacher over Lauren Boebert is SOOOOOOOOOOO satisfying. This makes 256 seats in the House Democratic majority, and counting! #BlueTsunami
