And in this case "more of what they [tRUmp] wanted" = HC being completely unaffordable for millions of Americans to afford
This is a pyrrhic victory for Republicans. Their only chance for the midterms is to muddy the waters and get persuadable voters to blame both parties.
Congratulations Democrats, Americans wholly believe you lost that shutdown because you caved

Strategy by "what we think will distract and what the credulous rubes will think is smart"
Massive high tech and lethal US Navy presence in the Caribbean. In search of a mission. Ineffective to execute anti drug ops. Unlikely to bring down Maduro. Massive increase in cocaine production in Colombia. Strategy by whim.

Wow this guy is cravenly full of shit. Karl starts strong but then lets him just bullshit. Interest rates being down is the Fed, not tRUmp. The inflation rate is NOT half what it was in Dec-- it has increased. Prices are all up except gas not because of anything tRUmp is doing.
KARL: The president claims that Thanksgiving costs are down 25%. Does he know that's not true?

HASSETT: Well if you look at Walmart--

KARL: Wait a minute. I've gotta stop you. The Walmart package this year contains much less than the one last year. That's why the price is less.

Political malpractice is the only thing the Dems know how to do really well unfortunately
made a similar point on the opinions podcast this week in response to the idea that epstein is a dead end. not only are actual voters interested in this but it divides the gop and puts pressure on the president. it would be political malpractice to treat it as a sideshow
The usual suspects are telling Dems that Epstein won’t win elections, get back to “affordability” and I think my head might explode. www.offmessage.net/p/force-a-re...

And wonder if it might change her view of Jan 6.
No one should have to face such threats.

It would’ve been nice if Greene had realized this before she amplified and endorsed calls for executing Nancy Pelosi and Barack Obama.

Oh I'd say that what's getting released now makes it pretty clear that Pizzagate as a Russian-right wing revanchist/christofascists driven attempt to inoculate their vessel for the takeover, tRUmp, from his major glaring vulnerability. Classic accuse your enemy of your own issues. They counted
In fairness, Pizzagate was a fever-dream fantasy. There's at least emails, a federal indictment, and a suspicious death in custody, serving as an evidentiary basis for the speculation here.

Not to lay my cards on the table but I think this narrow focus in online discourse on who deserves to be rewarded really elides the actual societal value of the education system (teaching members of society important stuff that it's valuable for them to know)

tRUmp: Focused on everything (DOGE, tariffs, East Wing, Greenland, Panama Canal, invading Venezuela, destroying Obamacare, gold leaf all over the WH, the Lincoln Bedroom, building an arch, the ballroom...on and on and on). All about him. Screwing you.
Americans oppose rebranding the Department of Defense as "Department of War" 54-22, with 36% strongly opposed.

And that's not in ignorance. Asked if this change narrows the Pentagon's focus, a plurality says yes. But asked if that'll make Americans safer, a majority says no.

The public gets it.
Most Americans oppose the ’Department of War’ rebranding
Even 42% of Republicans are no fans of the change.

Even Republicans aren't into the "Department of War" rebranding. Only 42% approve, which is low in such a polarized environment.

Plus Democrats and Independents are solidly opposed.

Americans want a professional, not unhinged military.

Mark Epstein asked his brother Jeffrey in an email to ask Steve Bannon if Vladimir Putin has “the photos of Trump blowing Bubba.”

there are Epstein emails where Epstein and his brother are joking (?) about Trump blowing "Bubba"
November 14, 2025 at 9:52 PM
This should be everywhere. It totally explains the hold that Putin has on tRUmp. tRUmp blowing anyone would destroy him with much of his base. Explains everything...
“Ask him if Putin has the photos of Trump blowing Bubba?”

Honestly, if the Dems can't get #blowingbubba to explode there's no hope

BTW, this reference that Putin has photos explains absolutely everything about tRUmp and would in fact destroy tRUmp.

And yet on Fox News, Jesse is all "DEMS IN DISARRAY" because Gavin vs Kamala or something.
The messy public breakup between President Donald Trump and U.S. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene marks the collapse of an alliance that has helped define MAGA politics and could have consequences for Georgia Republicans headed to a volatile midterm.

tRUmp has literally no idea how any of this works. Still.
TRUMP: We’re going to give Americans the money to buy health insurance

REPORTER: But won’t they buy it from
Insurance companies?

TRUMP: Ahhh. Some may. I mean they’ll be negotiating prices

Imagine what this number will look like when health insurance premiums go through the roof and countless people will have no coverage.

Whatever Trump is desperately covering up about Epstein, it’s clearly so bad that he thinks it could destroy him
November 15, 2025 at 1:02 AM
I just spent 3 minutes watching Jesse Waters just for grins. It's the total upside down there on Fox. Apparently it's the Dems that have some how been lured into an Epstein trap by tRUmp. Total wackadoo.
Oh, but tRUmp has rolled back tariffs that he placed on coffee so we should all be grateful.
November 15, 2025 at 1:15 AM
Dems should all be saying, in unison, non stop: "Who was president when Epstein "committed suicide". It wasn't Obama or Biden or Hillary. Who ran the DOJ and prisons? And who clearly had much to gain from silencing Epstein.
Who was it? Who could it be???
This is a briar patch threat if there ever was one.
he’s crashing out
November 14, 2025 at 4:02 PM
BTW, every Dem should now be saying "Who was president when Epstein "killed himself". Who was in charge of the prison where he conveniently managed to hang himself from a bunk bed. Was it... Hillary? Biden? Obama? Hmmm...who could it be that was in charge and had much to gain silencing Epstein?
And so the great deflection begins…

PLEASE! Take them all down. Keep it in the news 24-7. Go after people that have no power and will never run for anything again (Bill Clinton).
Innocent person: “Release all the files. I have nothing to hide.”

Guilty AF person: “if you come after me I’ll take everyone down with me.”

Do it.
