When Trump flew into NC to survey Helene damage, he apparently offered his endorsement to any of the Republican officeholders present to primary NC's Senator Thom Tillis if Tillis didn't fall in line and obey Trump's orders.
Of course, Tillis caved. He always does.

America doesnt even spend the 5% on NATO that T demands from our other allies.
"Asked when the U.S. might raise its defense spending from 3.4 percent to the 5 percent Washington is demanding of other allies, Hegseth demurred, saying that “3.4 percent is a very robust investment, larger than most.”"

FACTS: "There are proposals from Republicans to cut $2.3 trillion from Medicaid."
THIS is what it would do: It would destroy Medicaid. It wouldn't fight inflation. It wouldn't bring anybody's prices down. It would just steal people's health care

The ugly celebration of mass deportations by Trump, the WH, and Karoline Leavitt is vile on its own. But it also has a purpose: It's a pretext for Trump to vastly expand his powers. That's what the "invasion" language is really about.

Trump Aide Karoline Leavitt’s Creepy Flattery of Him Takes a Dark Turn

You either lie about it or you are so drug induced brain damaged that you can't remember. Either one should be disqualifying.
RFK, Jr. claimed his anti-vax work was a labor of love that cost him friendships. He said he’d never made money from it. But now he admits he made (checks notes) $1.2 million from it. How do you “forget” about that much money?
