1/It’s clear that Russia has gained strategic control of the US. Trump and Vance are fully in their grasp, and Massie/MTG/Carlson are following along with Khanna, Luna, and others as backstops. Most worrisome, Jeffries and Schumer display alarmingly poor judgment as well…

The Noticing Will Continue Until the Slop Subsides After getting absolutely smoked, the admin is desperate for some good news; so they serve up a new platter of slop through their top propagandists. A ceremonial, meaningless change of Susie Wiles to Stephen Miller, a new Q-drop fakeout tweet from @PeteHegseth used as red meat to the plan trusters, and their top slop distributor @bennyjohnson to reassure the public that everything is going to be different now. This song and dance is top tier clownery, predictable and beyond parody at this point. Until people start calling this out as loudly as possible and confronting these propagandists every day - all we will get is garbage in, garbage out. This cycle of disrespecting the audience, dumping on supporters (and assuming you're too dumb to notice) needs to end, or nothing will change.

The weird thing about Rubio is he escapes ANY accountability in the press for the entire world basically being on fire right now even though he's the first SOS/NSA since Kissinger. Just does absolutely nothing in either job but gets kid glove treatment in the press.

When I first saw this clip I thought she was referring to Charlie’s favorite brand of hot sauce. But no, as it turns out they are selling Kirk Hot Sauce for $8.99.
Erika Kirk: “It’s the little things. I miss Charlie when I see his hot sauce on the shelf, which is now available at grocery stores everywhere.” It’s an instinct.

Many of you know I used to frequent a VERY MAGA bar near my old house where political hostility was practically on tap. About a year and a half ago, I found a wonderful new local watering hole. Yesterday was my first visit since the midterms, and what I heard was fascinating: Two very different reactions to the Democratic tsunami. The first group of conservatives was politically exhausted. Disappointed, resigned, deeply distrustful of BOTH parties. But surprisingly open-minded. This is where my bestie is, too. Their consensus? Investigate EVERYBODY. Expose the corruption. **Release the Epstein files**. If Democrats can actually pull it off, FREAKING FANTASTIC. They don’t necessarily believe they will, but they recognize this may be their best opportunity to finally get answers. They also recognize the hurdles Dems face w/regard to the current administration & DOJ. My conservative best friend is hearing much the samE amongst her friends. The second group arrived later. A friend overheard several men discussing CIVIL WAR. Not fearing one. Not predicting one. Saying they were DOWN FOR IT. One reportedly declared, “I’m 70 years old, but I’m down.” Apparently the revolution needs to be squeezed in between Thanksgiving, Black Friday, Christmas, New Year’s and somebody’s orthopedic appointment. 🙄 I don’t mistake barroom bravado for an organized uprising by any means, but the (lazy) willingness to entertain political violence is disturbing. Personally, I think this stems more from the lack of reaction and defiance from the current administration than anything else. In other words, they feel left hanging because the last time there was near immediate action by the admin. Here’s what struck me: one group appears to be questioning its political loyalties. The other is responding to the same reality with anger and defiance. And BOTH reactions suggest something has shifted. The certainty surrounding MAGA & Trump has been shaken. One enormous warning for Democrats, though: EVERY conservative we talked to or overheard are willing to give congressional investigations a chance BUT they share serious concerns about Schumer, Jeffries, AIPAC, dark money and continued support for Netanyahu’s government. Those concerns aren’t confined to the Democratic base. Every one also wants the war to stop even if it means we “lost.” If the incoming leadership expects to earn trust across party lines while promising to expose corruption, it cannot appear beholden to the very influences voters want investigated. Full stop. 🛑 My takeaway? The political bubble may finally be cracking. Some are cautiously opening their minds. Others are digging in. It’s far too early to know where this leads. But after years of absolute certainty, I’m hearing something new from conservatives: “What if we were wrong? And what if Democrats actually uncover the truth?” That’s a conversation worth paying attention to!! Of note, these folks were a TINY sampling in a blue state. I’m sure it’s different elsewhere.

Chuck Schumer is legitimately one of the least popular politicians in the country right next to Trump himself. The American people voted for change and that's exactly what we should deliver. To keep the exact same leaders would be to spit in their faces. Schumer has been Senate Majority Leader before, he is extremely experienced, but there is the practical reality of perception and what voters expect from us. Jeffries is going to be the Speaker and I hope he represents us well, but Schumer already has a handful of Democratic Senators, like Elissa Slotkin and Adam Hamilton, questioning his viability.

I came to understand after leaving MAGA that the coordinated, multi-decade demonization, dehumanization and vilification of Democrats, liberals, etc., fuel a lot of the rage and fear within MAGA. I am not defending anyone’s ignorance, but the right-wing propaganda and agitprop have long been effective, consistent and disciplined. But this backfired on the GOP this election, and enough voters said "enough." Democrats can counter the mis- and dis-information by doing what many of their candidates did this year: going into communities, humanizing politics and showing that we agree more than we disagree on many issues.
Sanders: We have to remind people the difference of the party who supports freedom and the Democrats who want to push this crazy socialist idea of our country. I don't think we did a good enough job drawing that contrast over the last several weeks.

1/ Note @seanfeucht's reputation washing. He claims Brand loves Jesus and has been transformed. That may be. I can't say. Only God can properly judge a man's heart or know if his conversion is real. It's charitable and correct to assume it is. But ...
Regardless of allegations, past sin, or anything else, I know @rustyrockets as a man who truly loves Jesus and whose life has been transformed. I witnessed it firsthand many times over the last few years. Let’s pray for him and his family right now. Let’s also pray for anyone who may have been victimized in his past. I believe God can use even this, and I believe He’s not finished with Russell. Thank you, Ryan Miller, for the clip.

Kansas voter here. Actually right in the center, so deep cow country. We are tired. We are broke. We are seeing our friends and neighbors terrorized. What the hell would we want more of the same for? Hope this helps.
Can anyone please explain how every county in Iowa, Kansas, Nebraska, and Texas went blue? Really? I don't believe it. There's no freaking way that Farmers and Ranchers voted blue. No chance.

Replying to @AJentleson
Even if I agreed with you that Schumer gets the credit for the midterms tsunami, which I don’t, that still wouldn’t justify making him majority leader, because he simply isn’t up to the job of resisting Trump and navigating the next two years.

The TPUSA dorks have driven the Arizona GOP into irrelevance, they drove the Indiana GOP off a cliff, and now it looks like Brandon and friends want to do the same to Ohio too TPUSA is the greatest gift Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries have ever been given
Now the Ohio State Legislature should fast-track: 1. Bills limiting the next governor’s power to the maximum extent possible. 2. The Second Amendment Protection Act (HB 382) so unconstitutional federal gun laws cannot be enforced in Ohio by state and local law enforcement. 3. The Freedom to Carry Act (HB 495) so people can drive with loaded rifles in their vehicles, just like they’re already allowed to drive with loaded handguns. 4. The Affirming Families First Act (HB 693) to stop the government from breaking up families in the name of gender ideology. 5. The Ohio Religious Freedom Restoration Act (HB 952) to protect people of faith from government overreach. 6. The Ohio Self-Defense Act (HB 498) to protect individuals who defend their families with deadly force from lawsuits and unjust detainment. 7. A bill requiring photo ID for mail-in ballots. I hope the State Legislature sets a record for the most veto overrides if the governor mistakenly vetoes these bills, and for successful discharge petitions if moderate Republican committee chairs try to stop these bills from reaching the floor.

The French newspaper, Le Monde, named it, straight-up in the headline! "White supremacist." Bravo! Compare that to the NYT headline. "Fiery." 🙄 If our country is to rid the cancer, we must see it, name it, and stop soft-pedaling it.

Russell Vought has found a neat way to make Congress optional: hold approved money until the fiscal year ends, then pretend the calendar did the canceling. In September, OMB sought $810 million in rescissions. The GAO said the administration couldn't use that request to let the funding expire. Somehow the man who lectures everyone about constitutional government keeps misplacing Article I. The stakes are Head Start, disaster relief, medical research, and the basic promise that laws passed by Congress mean something. Get the records. Put the officials under oath. Close the claimed loopholes. A president doesn't get a line-item veto just because his budget director knows how to wait until midnight.
Russell Vought is the most powerful Trump official most Americans have never heard of. And Democrats are coming for his power. @crampell explains how Trump’s budget chief helped undermine Congress’s authority and why his reckoning may be coming. lnk.thebulwark.com/4irI149?u…

Yeah. The elections were safe and secure precisely because a cadre of professionals blocked and tackled interference attempts at every turn. If the system is allowed to function, it performs very well; but it doesn’t happen by magic.
This is so wrong The reason “Trump didn’t steal the elections” is because we & the pro-voter coalition stopped him EIGHT times over the past 21 months Here’s how: a thread (1/x)

I run a corporate consulting firm that specializes in small businesses, and I've dealt with more dysfunctional owners like this than I care to remember. I can tell you EXACTLY what's going on here. This guy had HALF his competent workforce walk off the job, can’t retain new hires even after doubling wages, and the workers who do stick around can’t even clean a fish tank without causing thousands of dollars in damages. And his conclusion is that an entire generation is unemployable?! Complete and utter nonsense. I can practically guarantee that if I sat down with the employees who quit, it wouldn't even take five minutes to figure out why they all left: An arrogant, insufferable, Boomer tyrant who treats his employees like garbage, blames everyone else for his own failures, and has created such a miserable working environment that anyone with two functioning brain cells and another employment opportunity immediately slams the eject button. Which, incidentally, explains why the only employees he can retain are apparently too stupid to tie their own shoes. The most incredible part is that this guy thinks offering $35 an hour somehow vindicates him. Do you have any idea how thoroughly you have to screw up as an employer to make $73,000 a year CLEANING FISH TANKS sound like a bad deal? And rather than engage in even a moment of self-reflection, he takes to X, publicly announcing that everyone who has ever worked for him is a lazy, incompetent moron. I cannot imagine why people don’t want to work for this man. I've got news for you, pal, and you might want to pay attention because I normally charge $400 an hour for this: When everyone who has the ability to leave your business does so, and the only people left are the ones nobody else will hire, it isn’t an employee problem. It’s a YOU problem. And the fact that you apparently had to shut down an otherwise profitable business before figuring that out tells me everything I need to know about why you had no business running one in the first place.
The newer generations are unemployable, so I shut down a business yesterday. I have many small businesses I got involved in, one is a Saltwater fish store. It sells fish, corals, aquariums etc. The most profitable part of one of these stores is outside Maintenance. Going to peoples houses, changing the fish tanks water, cleaning glass etc. This is a very simple job, you run a hose in from the truck, suck water out, pump water in (nothing manual), and use a magnetic razor blade to clean the glass. Take a water sample and leave. We had 4 trucks and 6 guys doing this... then 5, 4, 3... each person that quit put more work on the ones left. We tried to hire, it's a very low skill job. Most maintenance guys make $15-18 an hour. We went upto $35 an hour to try and get people. Beyond that we cannot be profitable. The job is easy, you have to have a license (actually hard as hell apparently), and pass a background check (youre in peoples homes, also hard as hell). Pass a drug test. At $35 an hour we got the following. Someone that caused almost 8k of damage when they started pumping in water, went out "for a smoke" and the tank overflowed. At least 5 hires that went through background tests, drug tests etc then didn't show for work the 1st day and never called us again. Someone that intentionally pulled the guard off the water pumping hose, and sucked someones fish into the pump. Someone that scratched the District Attourney of las vegas, Steve Wolfson's tank by deciding to not use the magnetic razor, and "do it by hand"... fo no fucking reason. (4k bill) A wrecked van Someone who stole our water tester (1500 dollar machine). I have no empathy, at least in Las Vegas, for people complaining about no work, no jobs blah blah blah. $6000 a month to put hoses in and out of a tank and look at pretty fish.

Speaking as a lawyer, a rape conviction is the hardest to get in criminal law. 90% of rapes never reported due to vile attitudes like yours that don’t believe women. Conviction rates 10% as system is stacked against women not men. Just 1/100 rapists held accountable. Shame on u.
All it takes is a woman saying that a man raped her 20 years ago. No evidence. Just her word and the vibes. And just like that, prison. Meanwhile his word? Zero weight. Only what she says matters. Those cheering Russell Brand’s conviction should understand what’s at stake. The judicial system is a cornerstone of Western civilisation. And now we know with 100 percent certainty that it’s completely corrupt. Justice was not served, this is the opposite of that.

Thomas here secretly worked for Hegseth earlier this year. He refused to disclose it publicly. If anyone asked him whether he was working for the Feds, he replied with an Elmo gif (he’s been spiraling ever since it was made public for him). His posts make sense when you know.
