Two things can be true:

1. I love that Marjorie Taylor Greene is turning on Trump & the MAGAsphere is starting to eat its own.

2. MTG is a despicable, horrible, hate-filled human being whose shameful rhetoric inspired threats against others. I have no sympathy for her reaping what she sowed. None.
Marjorie Taylor Greene saying Pelosi deserves death resurfaces after attack
In a now-deleted video that Greene posted on Facebook, she said that "Pelosi is guilty of treason," which is a crime "punishable by death."

Acton: I’m running against a guy, Vivek Ramaswamy, who has said that people are struggling in Ohio because they’re lazy, they’re mediocre, they’re not working hard enough. And I can absolutely tell you that is not the Ohioans I know or see. I think he’s completely out of touch.

Literally exactly what the Founders worried about. Exactly.
A foreign country bribed the president with a bar of gold.

Where are my Originalists at?
"It was tough to beat Apple, but the Swiss did it." said one administration official.

How the Swiss convinced Trump to drop tariffs with gifts of a Rolex desk clock and a 1 kg gold bar.

What Bongino does here is address this story by going after this Daily Mail headline. But this story was broken by ProPublica, and it said that Bongino was able to skip the polygraph portion of the background check, which was highly unusual. He chooses not to respond to that.

This is so so disturbing. Trump is now pardoning January 6th rioters for unrelated crimes, just to reward them for their violence to keep him in power.

The Republican Party is in the full time business of endorsing and incentivizing political violence. So scary.

Q: In addition to Clinton, Larry Summers, and Reid Hoffman, Trump is targeting JPMorgan Chase.

Who is he NOT targeting in the process of targeting JPM?

These are all diversions, and I'm wondering what bank he is diverting FROM?
