The very real problem Republicans have right is there are zero adults around Trump right now.

It's Loomers all the way down.
POLITICO: You pardoned the former president of Honduras even though he was convicted in a massive intl drug trafficking scheme. How is that 0 tolerance on drug trafficking?

TRUMP: Well I don't know him and I know very little about him other than people said it was like an Obama-Biden type set up

The median age of a first-time home buyer is now 40 YEARS OLD.

That’s an absolute crisis.

And House Republicans just tanked our broadly bipartisan and Senate-passed bill to create more homes and lower costs for all.

Donald Trump’s mental decline has gotten worse.

Why is the media only barely starting to report on it?

And why won’t they ask who’s really making the decisions in the White House? www.youtube.com/watch?v=NQHL...

Former Rep. Tom Perriello, a Virginia Democrat who won his sole term in a huge 2008 upset, unexpectedly announces campaign against GOP Rep. John McGuire. Trump carried the current version of #VA05 56-43, but it could look a lot different if Democrats convince voters to approve a new map this spring.

🚨Miami Mayoral Election THIS TUESDAY DEC 9 🚨

Please TELL EVERYONE YOU KNOW IN SOUTH FLORIDA even if they don't live in Miami--they may have family & friends in Miami.

This odd election date means Republicons hoped no one would pay attention.

Now they are worried--good news for the Blue Team!
🚨MIAMI MAYORAL RUNOFF ELECTION🚨

Democrat: Eileen Higgins

Election Date: 🗓️THIS TUESDAY, DECEMBER 9TH🗓️

Area: The city of Miami, FL

Note: A Democrat has not held this office in 30 years. A win for Eileen Higgins - in Mar-a-Lago's backyard - would send a strong message to the GOP in red Florida.

“He emphasized that unpredictability is his father’s strength and warned that if Kyiv does not agree to a peace deal, President Trump may simply “walk away” and end all support for Ukraine.”
🥴At the Doha Forum, Donald Trump Jr. stated that corruption in the Ukrainian government is fueling the war, and that Zelensky has become a “borderline deity” created by the left, whom they’ve made untouchable and beyond criticism.

MAGA is very upset about some Somalis who did 8 billion of fraud in Minnesota the same week they praise Trump for pardoning a venture capitalist who defrauded thousands of Americans for over 1 billion.

And it's not the side of the US people and democracy.

My constituent, Wilmer, was mauled by an ICE attack dog despite the fact that, as he has consistently explained, he was not resisting arrest or trying to flee—his wife and young children, all U.S. citizens, were forced to watch helplessly as Wilmer was violently attacked and dragged away.

I'm old enough to remember when MAGA raised $700K for the white woman who proudly called a 5-year-old boy the N word on camera.

That was in May.

Even then, establishment reeks and "centrists" refused to use the word "Racism" to describe MAGA supporters

As awful as this, the focus on whether the woman was complying obscures the more important issue: in a democracy, there should not be armed agents demanding to see papers of every passing person.
“Traumatized, humiliated, degraded.”

The nurse, a US citizen, 4’11”, 85 lbs, says she was following orders when she was dragged out of her car by masked immigration agents in Florida.

It was the 3rd time she had been stopped and told to produce ID.
