@DanaBashCNN The person I'd like to have identified is who was saying that Trump shouldn't tell the rioters to go home since it would be a win for the media. Now that would be a scoop.

BREAKING: LOL! President Obama brutally MOCKS Trump for melting down over his Cheesecake Factory joke and then goes right for the jugular. He really is the best to ever do it... "That was the interesting thing about how the administration responded to the speech I gave the other day. They did not dispute what I said about them being directly responsible for rising prices. They did not argue with that," Obama said at a rally in Georgia for Senator Jon Ossoff. "They did not deny tariffs were contributing to higher costs for families. They didn't say anything about that. I accused this administration, based on the facts, that they were engaging in unprecedented levels of corruption!" he continued. "They didn't say anything about that." "The President wasn't even mad about the Saddam Hussein comparison. That part didn't bother him. But he was very upset about the Cheesecake Factory comments," Obama said with a grin. "He took great umbrage. He said, I didn't understand the work of the artisans in the White House." "And they mobilized, this was, I mean, it's all crazy, but this was the really crazy part. They mobilized a whole-of-government response to that joke. Not to inflation, but to that joke!" he went on. "The White House even called the Secretary of the Treasury. This is the man who is in charge of the economy," Obama continued. "The person who's supposed to be figuring out how to make your life more affordable. The guy who's supposed to be figuring out how to lower inflation and reduce interest rates. They told him he should hold a press conference in front of the Cheesecake Factory." "No, y'all didn't see this? This really happened!" said an incredulous Obama. "And the Treasury Secretary, he happens to be a former hedge fund manager worth half a billion dollars, and he was out there in front of the Cheesecake Factory, explaining how he ordered the delicious French dip cheeseburger instead of the egg rolls." "Now, look, this is not something I ever thought of," he added. "Like, I inherited this major financial crisis. I never called my Treasury Secretary, Tim Geithner, said, man, you got to go to Arby's. Order roast beef." Trump's deranged response to the original joke has served as a potent reminder of just how little he actually cares about the American people. We are suffering from the economic fallout from his tariffs and failed Iran War, gas prices are spiraling out of control, and rather than address these multiplying crises, Trump would rather attack Obama and whine about a harmless joke. "This is what I mean when I say these are not serious people," added Obama. "They don't have solutions to actual problems, so they'd rather have the media and you talking about the Cheesecake Factory. That's the game they've been playing for the last two years. Just keep throwing distractions out there, attacks, fabrications, phony outrage, and hope that you won't notice that your bills are higher and your life is tougher." "Except that okie-doke will not work this time, Atlanta," said the former President. "Because you know your prices are still up. Because you pay your utility bills, you've seen what those are like. You know it's still hard to pay rent and pay for child care and pay for health insurance. "And you know we need serious people who are listening to your concerns, who see you and care about you and have real plans to make your life better. People like Jon Ossoff, people like Keisha Lance Bottoms!" roared Obama. Please ❤️ and share if you can't wait to see Trump melt down over these new remarks!

Trump is reportedly planning to restart war with Iran after the election. Some of us have been briefed on the war plan. And while I cannot disclose any details, I can say this: the plan is insane. It will not achieve objectives and will set off a new cycle of escalation.

Flavio Bolsonaro has landed in Miami and now has a U.S. Visa. Funny how the Trump admin loves to pick and choose who they let in. This guy is under investigation for money laundering.

⚡️️ Zelensky pushes back against Musk, says Ukraine uses Starshield only to defend its territory. "When Elon Musk said that we use Starshield against the Russians — yes, against the Russians, but on our own territory. This is not offensive; it’s defensive," Zelensky told journalists at a press briefing. kyivindependent.com/zelensky…

Jon Ossoff: “And while the crook president and his crook family rake in billions from all over the world, you pay more for everything. “They doubled your insurance premiums and slashed Medicaid to cut taxes for the rich. “They lied us into war and spent most of the last year covering up for the world’s most famous pedophile.”

BREAKING: FBI records reveal 16 Epstein-related items, including CLASSIFIED materials, were delivered to Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche’s office in March 2025, yet their whereabouts remain unclear as millions of pages remain unreleased, according to CBS News.

CBS News found evidence that classified material was in the Epstein files, after the attorney general said nothing was being held back for national security reasons. Vivek Ramaswamy’s own staff reportedly warned him not to run the ad about Amy Acton’s mother, and some are now thinking about quitting. Both parties are openly planning what to do about Pete Hegseth after Tuesday. And the Pentagon’s own numbers put the Iran war at more than $47 billion, well above what Hegseth told the public. There are 6 days until the midterms. Read it all in the Really American Substack: reallyamerican.substack.com/…

Judge David Carter: "Never before in American history has the federal government, on the eve of an election, sought to coerce a state and local government to abandon their own Constitutional elections procedures and bend to the will of the Executive Branch. In bringing this lawsuit, the Executive would have this Court believe that it reigns as a sole sovereign. But California and its people are sovereign, too."

Trump and Hegseth aren’t just going after me. They’re trying to chill the First Amendment rights of every retired veteran who served our country. That’s why I'm not backing down, because this fight is about all of us.

I sat across from Cassidy Hutchinson when she testified. Trump’s DOJ tried to indict her for it. But last night we found out a grand jury wouldn’t even let them bring the case. In 2022 she told the country Trump knew his crowd was armed and wanted the metal detectors taken down. She told us he wanted to go to the Capitol with them and lunged for the steering wheel when the Secret Service said no. Trump’s allies have called her a liar ever since. Now a DOJ lawyer has admitted to a judge that the grand jury rejected the indictment. They say a grand jury will indict a ham sandwich. This one wouldn’t touch her. She threw away her career to tell the truth. I believed her then and I still do. I break it all down in today’s show (link in reply).

“A Trump representative allegedly invited Keul upstairs to meet with him. According to the report, Keul believed the meeting could help advance her career and education. Once inside a suite, Trump allegedly grabbed her from behind and raped her, tearing her dress and causing bleeding and bruising on multiple parts of her body. Keul described the alleged assault as ‘brutal.’”

Alex Pretti's father: Our son was shot and killed by the government, federal immigration agents, on January 24th, 2026. We learned about his death from the media as we saw him being shot repeatedly in the back after helping a woman from his community. This was not a protest that Alex was at. His hands were in the air, and his face was on the ground when he was executed by ICE agents. We know exactly what our eyes saw. No one from the federal government called us on that day. But they did go on TV to tell lies about Alex. No one has called us since. No one has recanted those lies.

This is this most damning thing in the Epstein files and the media has still ignored it. Peter Thiel created the group that turned Russian hacked emails into conspiracy theories about Hillary—MAGA3X. Thiel coordinated with the Russians through Jeffrey Epstein—for YEARS. Trump, Thiel, and Musk are all so thoroughly compromised by their own treason they are effectively Russian agents. Putin must be defeated. Traitors must face consequences. Russia, Russia, Russia
On Oct 7, 2016, an emergency meeting was set by infamous pedophile Jeffrey Epstein with Palantir founder Peter Thiel, and Russian Ambassador to the UN, Vitaly Churkin. Later that day, the Access Hollywood tape came out, followed by Russian-hacked emails being released on Wikileaks, which were systematically painted by alt-right online trolls paid by Thiel’s PAC MAGA3X to mean that Hillary Clinton was involved in child sex trafficking. Mike Flynn and Erik Prince both worked to amplify these false, traumatic narratives about Podesta and a cabal of Satanic pedophiles run by Hillary. This was done significantly through Breitbart, which was run by Epstein close friend Steve Bannon, and funded by Rebekah Mercer. Additional firepower for these psychological operations was provided by Wagner chief Yvgeny Prigozhin’s Internet Research Agency—later charged by Robert Mueller. Up to 600 Russians were dedicated to the 2016 election on Twitter and Facebook. The smearing of Hillary Clinton, which mirrored Epstein and Trump’s own documented child rape, was later branded as Pizzagate—and extended by QAnon. It was all systematic, large-scale projection designed to swing a presidential election through psychological warfare. Thiel was the only major donor who supported Trump in the wake of Trump’s comments about grabbing women by the genitals on video. Palantir had previously been caught planning to run a covert influence operation on Wikileaks. A month after Trump’s inauguration, Vitaly Churkin suddenly died. We were looking for “Russian collusion” in the wrong place.
