When the House's leading antisemitic conspiracy theorist, and a deeply committed bigot, stops supporting Trump's regime, that's a sure sign he's become a lame duck dictator.
Trump cuts ties with Marjorie Taylor Greene in breakup of MAGA allies
In response, Greene accused the president of lying about her due to her stance on the release of more files related to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

under any other administration this alone would have been a massive news-cycle-swallowing scandal, now the AG is just like "yes, the president weaponized us, to distract from all the news implicating him with the pedophile rape gang he participated in with his best friend"

The line is not that Marjorie Taylor Greene has seen the error of her ways and realized that she, in all her idealism, was snookered by bad actors and conspiratorial pedophiles.

It is that she enabled them until it became so obvious that she either had to turn on her masters or share their guilt.

As his time in office steadily decreases, more and more people on the right will start trying to peel away Trump’s power. The vote on the Epstein files will be an accelerant to that process.

Senator Menendez is sitting in his cell at Allenwood right now because he took a 1kg gold bar from the Egyptians, among other forms of “lobbying.”
"It was tough to beat Apple, but the Swiss did it." said one administration official.

We could have gotten smarter fascists, who work to boost the economy upon taking office, funneling benefits to their supporters, consolidating power behind the scenes. Instead, they rushed to overt corruption while making even supporters' lives worse.

A lot of pain before they fall, but they will.

Don’t waste your time fact-checking these numbers, don’t engage Vance's vile propaganda as if he was advancing an argument in good faith.

Call out the underlying political project: A violent, authoritarian blood-and-soil nationalism that defines “America” as a white Christian homeland.
JD Vance: "A lot of young people are saying housing is way too expensive. Why is that? Because we flooded the country with 30 million illegal immigrants who were taking houses that ought by right go to American citizens."

What was it ever the case? Unless you mean "America First" entirely in the whites first Lindbergh Nazi-sympathizing sense.

Wouldn't a more accurate way to phrase "fears that he is drifting away from his more populist stances" be "finally realized he is lying"?
