Incredible to be hit by space debris while you’re flying a Boeing. That’s how you get social media engagement in a high class manner.

EXCLUSIVE: One Saturday afternoon in October, my phone lit up with a notification.

I glanced down at the message.

“Anna, Lindsey Halligan here,” it began.

So began my text exchange with the woman who is prosecuting the president's perceived political enemies.

The farmers are getting precisely what they voted for.

Seeing a lot of "wow they voted against their own interests!"

Alas, they really didn't. Most US farmers are millionaires now- it's not the same farm country your grandparents left.

Most US farmers are just... rich people who voted for tax breaks.

We do really need to do away with the trope of the "poor family farmer" though.

That hasn't been thing for decades.

Chip Roy: "The truth is the marxist, radicals, and Islamists the Democratic Party promoted this weekend, they cannot handle the truth. The truth is that there is a king and that king is Jesus. And the president has been willing to say it, & Charlie Kirk was willing to say it & he got killed for it."

CNN uncovered an audio of RFK Jr comparing Trump to Hitler and saying his supporters are “Nazis” and “cowards”.

This is what makes fascism so dangerous… many people will happily join their ranks if it means they can grasp a tiny bit of power.

We all know they’re fascists & now they’re admitting it

It is a scandal totally unprecedented in history that the Vice President has shared a video depicting the President as king. It’s an obscene violation of every founding American principle.

And nothing will come of it. It makes me physically sick.
