"Republicans broke almost every promise they made."
Thomas Massie says he was removed from Congress because he exposed the Republican Party's failure to honour campaign promises. He points to the Epstein files, the pledge to avoid new foreign wars and promises to cut government spending as commitments he tried to enforce through legislation.

I’ve been wondering this exact same thing for the past 2 years
“What's with the Left fully supporting Islam and the Muslim world and all these Islamic countries when in reality the Muslim world would never accept the Left in their own country? The Muslim world is far more right-wing extremist than any right-wing extremist in America”
Muslims are way closer to conservative values (on a very extreme end) so it it makes no sense for liberals to be so aligned with Muslims
Muslims literally hold the exact opposite values of liberals

Prices are still too high, in large part, because we engaged in a war of choice at the urging of Netanyahu and Israel.
You just cannot separate price increases (which were voters' top issue) from this disastrous war.
End the war.
Americans want our leaders to focus on domestic issues and Main Street prosperity, not policing the Middle East.
Put America First.

"You just watched the spell get broken."
Dave Smith says the Republican midterms disaster has shattered the political consensus defending the Iran war. He describes watching prominent conservative commentators finally acknowledge the war's electoral consequences after dismissing his warnings for more than a year.
"You can't cover up the Epstein files and launch a war when everyone wanted the opposite."

🇺🇸🇮🇱 @NickJFuentes TORCHES the Levin/Shapiro wing of the Republican Party:
"How about the fact that you are more loyal to Israel than the United States?
[The Iran war] is the least popular war in modern history... and it reflects a systemic issue in the GOP.
If you want to win elections in the future, we cannot serve Israel anymore.
We must remove this element from the party."

California fined a Malibu couple $4,185,000 over a beach gate they didn’t even build.
Their “crime”? Keeping a gate that protected the public from a 20-foot drop onto a drainage pipe.
The fine was so brutal they had to SELL their home to help pay it.
When Warren and Henny Lent bought the house in 2002, the deck, the stairs and the gate were already there. Five years later, the California Coastal Commission demanded they rip all three out.
Why? A previous owner had agreed to public beach access back in 1978, and the gate stood in the way.
The Lents even handed the state a KEY so officials could open the gate any time they wanted.
It wasn’t enough.
Then in 2014, the legislature gave the commission the power to fine property owners up to $11,250 PER DAY. Two years later, it used that power to do the unthinkable:
NARRATOR: “They retroactively fined them for all 744 days that had elapsed since the Lents were informed their violation could expose them to financial penalties. The ultimate fine was a staggering and disproportionate $4.185 million.”
After the hearing, the Lents offered to take the gate down the very next day. The state told them to wait a few months. Why? It needed time to get its OWN gate ready. The moment the old gate came down, the state put a new one up.
Pacific Legal Foundation took the fight all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court. The Court wouldn’t even hear the case.
WARREN LENT: “When you sit down and the dust settles, you say, ‘What did Warren and Henny Lent do?’ They bought a house on the beach to fulfill a lifelong dream. That’s all we did.”
Years later, the 2025 Palisades fire burned the home to the ground. The only thing left standing was that damned gate.

Former UK PM Liz Truss outlines how the British "deep state" exerts immense unelected power from behind the scenes.
She describes how this hidden machinery prevents politicians from enacting change, forcing them to conform to woke ideology or face exclusion from post-office opportunities.
"The tentacles of the octopus... prevent politicians from actually doing anything."
"Many politicians... come into the House of Commons with good intentions."
"But over time, they begin to understand that if they want to get a job after they leave politics, the way to do it is to keep their head down, to go along with the mantras about DEI and climate change and all this stuff, and to not tell the truth about how government actually works."

This is an important post. It should go viral.
Every GOP strategist, consultant, and candidate should be forced to participate in a role-playing exercise this morning.
Your name is Bob. You’re a 49-year-old blue-collar worker in Ohio. You’ve always struggled to make ends meet. The good jobs were all shipped to China and the few remaining pay a pittance wage, undercut by endless illegal labor.
You’re a 3x Trump voter because you believed he would finally make America great again.
You put your son through Ohio State. He graduated cum laude in computer science. You couldn’t have been prouder. After months searching, he landed an entry-level job at Microsoft. Beneath his qualifications, but a good start for a smart kid.
Then he got laid off. That same month, Microsoft applied for 150,000 more H-1B visas because it can’t find qualified Americans.
Your son has spent six months back in his childhood bedroom, sending hundreds of applications without landing an interview.
On TV, Trump boasts about the greatest economy in history and how many women and minorities are finding jobs.
You decide a father-son steak night might cheer him up.
Gas is $4.50 a gallon. Filling your truck costs over $100. At Kroger, ribeyes are $30/lb. You settle for hamburger, even though 70/30 ground beef still costs $10+.
At checkout, a fat black woman is screaming at the cashier because her EBT will only cover most of the filet mignon and lobster in her cart.
You think to yourself how the Iran war has made everything expensive, but at least we’re stopping their nuclear bomb. You weren’t even sure where Iran was before you googled it after we first bombed them in March.
After dinner, you take your son to the county fair. Half the people aren’t speaking English. Virtually none of the crowd looks like you. You’re forced to leave early after a “teen takeover” turns violent. A foreign born judge pledges none of them will go to jail.
Back home, you turn on the TV. Vivek Ramaswamy is lecturing the crowd about American mediocrity and why Ohio needs more foreign talent.
Your son grows upset. You change the channel.
Now a Republican surrogate, the daughter of a governor or wife of an elderly billionaire, explains that young White men are the REAL welfare queens. They’d rather play videogames in their parents’ basements than work.
Your son says nothing. He just goes back to his childhood bedroom. You turn off the TV.
Then your neighbor starts blasting reggaeton and cracking open Modelos. He brought his cousin’s family from Mexico to help with all the minority-business contracts his construction firm keeps winning. Tonight they’re celebrating his nephew’s birth, the family’s first birthright American citizen.
You sit alone in your living room.
You worked hard, paid taxes, obeyed the law, and raised your son to do everything right. You voted Republican again and again because you believed somebody in Washington would finally fight for you.
Instead, your wages are stagnant. Groceries are unaffordable. Your community is unrecognizable. Your country is fighting another foreign war.
And upstairs, the son you sacrificed everything for is lying awake in the bedroom he slept in at twelve, wondering what the heck he’s even supposed to do with his life now.
Every time you turn on the TV, the Republicans you elected are either congratulating themselves or explaining why you and your son are the problem.
For ten years, they told you America’s future depended on your vote. Now you aren’t even sure America has a future worth defending.
The Republican Party needs to answer one simple question this morning:
You’ve spent a decade demanding Bob’s loyalty. You’ve given him stagnant wages, unaffordable groceries, another foreign war, and a son who did everything right but can’t find work.
And when they complain, you call them lazy, entitled, and racist.
What possible reason have you given Bob and his son to vote Republican? Do you honestly think you deserve their vote?

Talked to hundreds in recent months who shared this sentiment. A wry Vietnam vet came up to me in the airport in Colorado last week and said the Senate GOP was a bunch of “Grand Old Procrastinators, the type I would have thrown out of my foxhole because they were more likely to surrender than fight the enemy.”
🚨 HOLY SMOKES. Gov. Ron DeSantis just BLEW UP and went on an America first RAMPAGE on national TV
"I saw NO INDICATION that Republican senators were interested in doing conservative change! WHY haven't we done immigration, SHUT OFF H1B visas?! WHY haven't we CODIFIED Trump's immigration executive orders?! Why haven't we STRIPPED jurisdiction from the federal courts over deportation cases?! There's SO MANY THINGS we COULD HAVE DONE."
"THEY DIDN'T EVEN ATTEMPT IT."
"They say, 'oh, if only we needed 50 votes we would've done it!' YOU DON'T HAVE 50 VOTES. You NEVER SHOWED you'd do conservative things, even with 50 votes! [RE: filibuster]...I NEVER saw an indication that they'd do it."
"This midterm was a rebuke of the president and Congress...BUT, a LOT of our voters stayed home because they were FRUSTRATED with the LACK of productivity from Republicans in the House and Senate."
A fire was just lit under this man.
Honestly have not seen him get that fired up in a LONG time
We definitely deserved better from our Senate. Now, we need to repair and win in 2028, or Democrats are destroying America!

Somewhere along the way "Elon only pumps the stock" or "he's overrated" became the take. so I checked

Every time I see close election results like 49% to 49% I just remember how the CIA confirmed there are teams of statisticians, mathematicians and hackers who work together overseas to rig American electronic voting machine election results. They keep margins close and quietly adjust results so Democrats win. Exactly like what we always see on election night
Lara Logan interviews Former CIA operations officer Gary Berntsen who explains how elections are being stolen in America
🚨 He describes there are teams of statisticians, mathematicians, and hackers who map out every county and identify where margins can be quietly adjusted
Different techniques are used in each location so nothing matches in a recount. When a 70-30 county becomes 68-32, nobody notices. But when you add up these differences across an entire state, those tiny amounts of fraud decide outcomes
Both former CIA operations officer Gary Berntsen and author Ralph Pezzullo explain the strategy. They explain they don't flip the big blue cities. Instead they shave votes in the places no one ever audits
“They know where they can find the dead people... Mm-hmm.”
“They plan this, It's meticulous. It's meticulous. These guys are experts at this. It's not just a few guys in a back room. You're talking about hundreds of statisticians and engineers, and they work it, you know, for a year to plan and mathematicians and hackers.”
“We had a map out of Colorado when we were talking to our engineers, the guys that designed it, that stole the elections.
— We just go to every one place where Trump wins 70-30 and — Shaved it off.
We shave in every other place. We don't go near a Democratic place, because when they wanna do recounts, they're gonna go to the Democratic places. They don't realize we shaved in every other committee. We know every other county.
We know how to do this. And then in each of those things where they shave, they shave with a different technique in each one of those. So if you found something in, in one county, there's no continuity around the state that way.
So this is why the Republicans are so much at fault, because they have the power and the ability to show in their areas they can allow access to the machines, they can allow access to the source code”
People need to go to prison. Democrats are stealing elections nationwide in every county, in every state of America

Dear Mr. @POTUS
The battle of 2026 may have ended in “bloodshed” but the war for the soul of America continues. You sir, still have the responsibility to ensure the preservation and protection of our constitution. Below are some ideas as you awaken and examine the aftermath of yesterday’s massacre (there is no other way to describe it).
Overcoming failure in battle requires accepting responsibility, analyzing the root cause(s), and shifting one’s focus from the setback itself to your next immediate response.
In the U.S. military we use to follow a disciplined “lessons learned” process. We called it the AAR (After Action Review). The AAR is designed to make us better. Take it to heart. The AAR, if done correctly is an honest, if not brutal, assessment of what happened, how did it happen, and what can be done to fix it in the future.
First, we must understand the following strategies to overcome defeat:
1. Acknowledge and Own the Failure: Stop shifting blame or masking the reality of what happened; digest the failure directly so you can use it as fuel to move out smartly into the future.
2. Change the Formula: Failure with a proper response can return to success. Understand that the initial loss is not what defines you. Your immediate reaction and adjustments will. Essentially, it’s not that bad things happen to people, businesses, military formations, or even nations; they always do. That is not how you will be defined. How you will be defined is what you do to overcome those bad things.
3. Deconstruct the Root Causes: Evaluate factors like preparation, promises made & not kept, leadership (your own and those in your inner circle), and tactical (on the ground) execution and strategic decision making at the highest levels of your team to include your own. Now is NOT the time to sit and self-loathe nor cry in your corn flakes. Instead of allowing yourself to spiral into a selfish woe is me curled up fetal position, as an American president, you must awaken yourself to awaken the nation. Now is the time for great leadership to arise. Do you have it in you?
4. Rely on Your Team (but understand this same core team may be part of the problem): It may be high time to lean on others; your peers, outside supporters, former adversaries, a group of advisors who only want America to succeed (if America succeeds, you succeed). These things need to be said. Most of all, humble yourself quietly before God and pray. Many other great U.S. presidents who faced failure in our storied past did and it seemed to work for them. Find an inner strength and hold yourself accountable first and then you can hold others accountable.
5. Set a Clear Next Objective: Break your path forward into small, manageable tasks or re-aim for a distinct end-state or set of end-states. What got you to where you are today? Why did We The People trust to place you into the highest office in the land (again)? What were our expectations and why were they not met? Consider creating a new set of criteria given the conditions our nation faces (ie., domestic disunity and foreign policy disasters). No need to start from scratch but clearly you must wipe the slate clean in some critical areas then fill them with a renewed sense of energy and urgency.
I’ll finish here. That is enough for now. There is a great deal of work and much sacrifice ahead. The American people are a hopeful lot who want only what is best for our families, our homes, our communities and our country. Start there.
Now is the time to take control of the things only you can control.
An American in service to nation. Out.

Do You agree with what he says ?
Yes
No

Viva Frei argues that the collapse of Trump's political coalition stems from a fundamental betrayal of its founding promises, including no new wars, no regime change, and transparency over the Epstein files.
He says loyalty shifted from voters to donors, while dissenting supporters were marginalised.
"They refuse to listen to all the constructive criticism."

This is how you do it. Just say “no. I’m not doing that.”
Done it a hundred times. The guys/girls aloft have priority. Full stop. It’s our lives and our passengers.
I‘m not flying through there. if you make me, I say no.
