Two Republican senators told me tonight this vote shows they can execute the same strategy again — cut Democrats out of the negotiations on a gov’t funding bill, pass it thru the House, and expect Senate Dems to back down and not filibuster it.
“We liked it over here,” one said.

Trump & Vance are disgusting PIGS rambling on about how Zelensky didn't thank them and how bad that is... THIS was a publicity stunt for King Trump to show Putin that he's a STRONGMAN -and on Putin's side. This was a planned public flogging of Zelensky. Pathetic.

Since Musk is going to be President, please repost if you'd like to see his income taxes.
And while we're looking into his income taxes, let's get him to produce his birth certificate, too.

Increasingly looking like the announced Gaetz nomination kills two birds with one stone: It gives Gaetz an excuse to resign, which he did this afternoon to prevent release of the House Ethics report on his conduct, due Friday, while letting Trump tweak Dems into outrage, which he enjoys doing.

Matt Gaetz has barely practiced law and has never been a federal prosecutor or worked at DOJ. His sole experience with the criminal justice system is as a target of a federal investigation. gaetz.house.gov/about

- revives his assaults on women, relationship with Jeffrey Epstein, serial criminality
- makes him look impulsive and idiotic to the Rs who have move his appointments and agenda through and his own staff
