I for one don’t think Attorneys General should speak at RNC rallies at all.
this is how Attorney General Todd Blanche opened his speech at an RNC political rally
CAIN: What about the existing illegal immigration population that is not a parole violator, or does not have a criminal record. Are they a priority? MARKWAYNE MULLIN: 100% a priority
I miss being able to log off for a few hours without coming back to a bunch of new shit to be angry about.
A Trump supporter with a trucking company begs Trump to end the war and get gas/diesel prices down because he can’t afford to run his business (But says he still supports Trump anyway🤔)
Q: Why is @GovBillLee bypassing the competitive bidding process — and hiding who the state is making deals with — months before leaving office? Who is he handing this NASHVILLE land by the Capitol (where Elon’s Teslas-only tunnel starts) to?🤔 state building commission agenda👇🏽
“IT SHOULD CONCERN EVERY TENNESSEE TAXPAYER.” Sen. @campbell4tn.bsky.social calls out @GovBillLee for bypassing the competitive bidding process 🤔and waiving disclosure 🤔🤔 to hand valuable downtown NASHVILLE land by the Capitol to an unidentified developer months before leaving office.
Trump is trying to rig the 2030 Census by adding a citizenship question. This would eliminate millions of people from the official count, drastically reshaping congressional representation. He will stop at nothing to entrench Republican power.
Trump officials propose sweeping changes to the census that would reshape voting maps
A Trump census proposal would stop asking about race and exclude millions of U.S. residents from a count that the 14th A

Here's what I think about Trump's pledge to give everyone $5,000 if he wins the midterms: It's as real as Trump's promise to lower costs on Day 1. Check the receipts from Groundwork for the 15 times Trump promised Americans $$$. Remember the DOGE dividend?
I obviously cannot tell Mark Carney or Canada what to do. But I can say that, based on my experience, the only way to stop bullies is to hit them back.
Message to Canada: Continue to Fight Trump

Elon Musk is bankrolling an ad campaign to get you to check your voter registration through an innocent-sounding website. But his real goal is to collect and sell your personal data to advertising companies, Big Tech, and other Republican PACs.

The slick voter registration website, currently being promoted to millions of people, is a digital surveillance machine.

📌All the bigots asking why the mayor of New York City is presiding over the remembrance of the 9/11 attacks, need to shut up and explain to us why they support the traitor who attacked us Jan. 6.

learn from a sock in the mouth. Maybe that’s what the Houthis will deliver.🤷🏽♀️ I just can’t get fired up to rail against the team WE PROVOKED with our inane idiotic actions. Can’t do it.
will succeed where the rest of the world failed. They are a tenacious & unpredictable lot. We started this shit because the asshole couldn’t say NO to the genocidal war criminal running Israel. So, as much as I appreciate the sacrifices of our troops, this war is folly & foolish folks can only
Feeling weirdly taciturn about this. Obviously I do NOT want our gas prices to go up, or for the world economy to come to a screeching halt. And yet….. How do I say this…..I want the asshole to burn in humiliation for his perfidy, stupidity and obscenity. And maybe, just maybe, the Houthis
I hope everyone is paying attention to Yemen. If the Houthis are able to hold Mokha and significantly impede Bab al-Mandab, this gets really, really bad.
The Bible never says that God has a penis. But in fairness, Ken Paxton, you missed *a lot* of verses in the Bible, you adulterous liar.
In fairness, hearing that they lied about all the carcinogens swirling in the air after 9/11, it makes me sad that Donald Trump's stories about being down there are lies.
Anyone accepting a $5,000 “GOP Dividend” from Trump for voting is looking at a $10,000 fine and 5 years in jail. It's illegal to offer, give, or accept money for voting. 52 U.S.C. §10307(c) Trump has already violated this law. But voters they will never be liable because they will never get paid.
You know who thought of this before, Fox News? Congress! In 1965. When they made offering and taking money for voting ILLEGAL. 52 U.S.C. §10307(c).
“This shows just how creative and rule-breaking and out of the box President Trump is,” she said. “I’m surprised no one has thought of this before.”
There are at least two provisions in the U.S. Code that make it illegal to offer or accept a $5,000 "GOP Dividend" for voting. Both the offerer (Donald Trump) and the accepter (good luck with that!) are liable for fines and jail time.
"There's an old saying in Tennessee—I know it's in Texas, probably in Tennessee—that says, fool me once, shame on— shame on you. Fool me—you can't get fooled again." —George W. Bush, the *second* dumbest president ever.
Donald Trump's own Department of Justice has repeatedly warned Americans to be wary of cryptocurrency scams. Nearly 1 million people who bought Trump's last memecoin have lost money. Their losses total over $3.81 billion.
