... “Maybe you should become a Democrat, Marjorie,” said co-host Joy Behar.
“I’m not a Democrat,” Greene replied. “I think both parties have failed.”

It's very amusing that Kevin Sorbo thinks MAGA voters will refuse to vote Republican in the midterms because Trump said we don't have enough talent in this country
Why people vote is emotional to these people, not rational.
"I'm insulted Trump thinks Americans have no talent so I'm voting for the other guy".
OK whatever.
Trump meanwhile pretended in the interview with Laura Ingraham that he had nothing to do with the round-up and deportation of hundreds of Koreans from the Georgia battery plant, which was basically Obama's MO throughout his presidency when a problem occurred in the country under his watch.
"You didn't build that over there, and I didn't do that other thing over here."
... The Georgia facility, operated by Hyundai Motor Group and LG Energy Solution, saw 475 of its workers arrested on allegations that they were in the U.S. illegally, or without the proper work permits, with hundreds of detained South Koreans sent home Thursday.
The raid was part of a broader deportation drive by the Trump administration, which the White House has described as central to fulfilling U.S. President Donald Trump’s election campaign promises. Stephen Miller, the White House’s deputy chief of staff and homeland security adviser, has pushed for 3,000 arrests a day. ...

Tucker Carlson can't encourage the haters but Donald Trump can?
Once you platform Donald Trump, one should not be surprised to get more of this.
In America political mistakes like that can be undone politically.
November 2026 is the next opportunity.

Representative Grijalva was sworn in today as the US House opened for business, became the 218th signature on Rep. Massie's petition forcing a vote to release the Epstein files
Arizona Democrat Adelita Grijalva sworn in after contentious seven-week delay
... Grijalva represents the 218th signature on a bipartisan discharge petition, which will allow rank-and-file lawmakers to bypass Johnson and his leadership team and force a floor vote to release files. She signed the petition as her first act as a member of Congress.
That will force the House to hold a vote in the coming weeks to compel the Justice Department to release all of the files related to its investigation into Epstein. But the bill is unlikely to pass the Senate or be signed into law by Trump, who has personally urged Republicans to block the discharge push. ...
Jeffrey Epstein files: House speaker announces vote next week on release of docs
... Rep. Adelita Grijalva, D-Ariz., provided the 218th signature needed to approve the so-called discharge petition shortly after she was sworn in as a House member, after a seven-week delay. Griljalva won a special election to fill the seat vacated due to the death of her father, Rep. Raúl Grijalva, in March. ...
Even if the effort passes in the House, it is unlikely to become law. The bill would have to pass in the Republican-controlled Senate, and Trump could veto it even if it survived a vote in that chamber. ...
It took Mad King Ludwig just one week to heed Cleta Mitchell's ridiculous advice and issue meaningless federal pardons to his fake elector schemers for their state crimes
Trump is still following specious legal reasoning in 2025 just like he did after losing in 2020.
... Among those also pardoned were Sidney Powell, an attorney who promoted baseless conspiracy theories about a stolen election, John Eastman, another lawyer who pushed a plan to keep Trump in power, and Jeffrey Clark, a former Justice Department official who championed Trump’s efforts to challenge his election loss. Also named were Republicans who acted as fake electors for Trump and were charged in state cases accusing them of submitting false certificates that confirmed they were legitimate electors despite Biden’s victory in those states. ...

40 million dead and wounded, the equivalent of 177 million in 2023
Ukraine war casualties to date are estimated at 1.5 million, 1.1 million of which are Russian.
Chief Democrat among them is Trump though lol
It's amazing how Schumer is somehow to blame for the seven Senate Democrats and one Independent who voted with Republicans for the continuing resolution, led by John Fetterman from the very beginning.
So-called fiscal hawk Republican Jodey Arrington (TX-19) won't run in 2026, says Trump is committed to reversing the curse of public debt but doesn't know where the president is lol
Let me tell you where you are, Jodey.
Four months after you passed the Big Ugly Bill under reconciliation rules, rules which Mike Crapo in the Senate turned on their head, you are a whisker away from another $2 trillion in debt added to the public debt since July 4th.
Jodey's just puttin' lipstick on the pig and saying, See ya!
... Arrington said he had faith Republicans in Washington would pick up his mantle of fiscal hawkishness, or as he's often called it, "reversing the curse" of public debt.
"The president's committed to it, he talks about it all the time. He's actually doing something about it with very difficult decisions, not politically popular decisions. This is all about political will," Arrington said. "Trump's doing it. Mike Johnson is committed to it… And we have a growing number of fiscal hawks who are absolutely dogged on this issue."
But he said he would continue to push for further fiscal reforms for his remaining year on Capitol Hill, including another budget reconciliation bill to follow up on the big, beautiful bill.
"I don't know where the Senate Republicans are. I don't know where the president is and can't speak for the White House. But the House is at the ready," Arrington said. "It's been our most consequential tool to support the president and the strength of the country, and I don't see any reason we wouldn't utilize it to its fullest extent."

Too little too late: Sean Davis of Federalist and Daily Caller fame says Republicans have no accomplishments, young people have no hope
... Republicans right now have no accomplishments, no plans, and no vision. Why on earth would anyone be excited to go vote for them 12 months from now? ... You cannot have a viable country or future when half your country and all its young people are locked out of the economy and locked out of ever owning a home or much of anything beyond next month’s streaming subscription. ...
Quoted here.
Yeah, well, you should have thought of that sooner, because the way these things work it takes a Herculean effort to get just one or two important things of consequence done when you become president, and you have to get started right out of the box.
Obamacare was one such thing for Democrats. It's still here fifteen years later, and Republicans have no alternative to it except to try and kill it, and they can't even do that, same as in 2017.
This is Groundhog Day, all over again.
The Bupkis Administration, Part Two.
Gang of eight Democrats in the U.S. Senate join Republicans to end the longest federal government shutdown in history
Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA)
Sen. Angus King (I-ME)
Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto (D-NV)
Sen. Jacky Rosen (D-NV)
Sen. Dick Durbin (D-IL)
Sen. Jeanne Shaheen (D-NH)
Sen. Maggie Hassan (D-NH)
Sen. Tim Kaine (D-VA)
... The Senate voted 60-40 to move forward on a House continuing resolution, which now carries a bipartisan compromise to fund veterans’ affairs, military construction, Congress, and agriculture through the end of the fiscal year, with the rest of the government funded through January 30.
In return, Democrats have been promised a December floor vote on extending the expiring Affordable Care Act (ACA) premium tax credits, though it is not guaranteed to pass. ...

Mad King Ludwig rages against the machine: When Trump pardoned the J6ers, figuring out who deserved it and who didn't was just too hard for him, and so is figuring out Obamacare
He has no clue what to do about Obamacare, so he proposes murdering it.
It's his solution for everything else, so why not?
Kill the lawfully allocated federal spending, kill the federal workers administering it, kill the agencies they worked for, kill the inspectors general making sure you comply with the federal laws you break with every breath, kill Greenland, kill Canada, kill the Houthis, kill the Iranians, and kill the drug boat operators.
Are Venezuelans next? Nigerians? And how many U.S. citizens swept up in ICE raids will die in custody, like the 20 foreigners who already have?
Bankrupting the insurance companies overnight as he is suggesting is simply the political equivalent of what Luigi Mangione did to the United Healthcare CEO.
These pronunciamentos he keeps uttering are piling up into one great heap of nothing more than a mountain of irritable mental gestures, if you don't count the actual bodies left behind.
Republicans repealed Obamacare 37 times after 2010, but it's still alive.
They still have nothing.
A sane person observes that the options are limited with a five seat majority in the U.S. House and a three seat majority in the U.S. Senate, but sane does not describe Mad King Ludwig. He is intent on shoving down the throats of the American people whatever he can no less than Democrats did with Obamacare fifteen years ago. The Uniparty, folks.
Everything Trump does is done with the subtlety of a brick. If only he restricted himself to building.
But that is impossible for him, because he has desires . . ..
Save the greater sage grouse from the worshippers of electricity, the renewable energy phonies, AI data centers, NV Energy, Berkshire Hathaway, Warren Buffett, the Bureau of Land Management, and of course Donald Trump
This poor little bird has an awful lot of enemies.
