Jack: Ashley Moody’s trying to brand you as a radical… Nixon: Her views are definitely radical because she voted to end health care for over 440,000 people here in the state alone, and millions across the country. She’s also radical because she stole $10 million from sick kids…

He's the son of a former Bobby Jindal staffer whose consultant work was instrumental in getting Hawley elected.

Did Trump unplug Starshield because Putin asked him to? A THREAD.

1. I think we are seeing the makings of another impeachment scenario involving Ukraine. The last one (which, as you know, was Donald Trump's first of two) was about him asking Ukraine's president, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, to help him cheat to beat Joe Biden in 2020.

Trump’s worldview is that it is good for evil to prevail and wrong for the righteous to resist.

Trump sounds genuinely upset that Putin didn't defeat Ukraine in one day, which he insists Russia could've done had their generals not taken "a wrong turn"

I could see there being an argument to bring the two metrics into alignment so that a Zacharia is exactly one half a moochspan rather than this 5/11 thing. Just because they’re so close to being a regularizable ratio.

Real America's Voice interviewed a guy at the Trump rally in Ohio who blasted Trump for peddling "lies and garbage." He went so hard on Trump and JD Vance that they cut the interview short.

If you are shocked this am that Trump’s government executed a search warrant against a Democratic Member of Congress and ignored a judge’s order then you haven’t been paying attention. Stop saying this isn’t how it works in the US. It is exactly how it works under Trump.

Well, it’s a quick take, and no doubt data will come in, but it sure looks like based on today’s evidence that a lot of pro-Trump and pro-AfD bot work depends directly on Russian data centers.
