The fact that four hostile drones tried to hit Zelenskyy’s plane & it’s barely a blip in the news cycle should terrify everyone. We’ve been dragged so deep into the chaos era that an attempted strike on a world leader doesn’t even break through. When this becomes normal, the world is in real danger.

If you’re only reporting that Trump is telling the House to vote to release the documents and you’re not asking him whether the Senate should do so too. Or whether he’d sign the order. Or why he wouldn’t just release it all himself. Then you are not a journalist. You are a patsy for his latest con.

You would think that the 8 GOP Senators who are SO OUTRAGED that Jack Smith subpoenaed their phone records that they want $1 million compensation would bring him in to testify IN A PUBLIC HEARING to explain why he did this. But no, they don’t want to do that. I wonder why?

The thing tipped some folks on the Hill into being really spooked, when the rumors of something extremely bad coming really picked up, was when Bondi was directly asked and pointedly refused to deny there are such photos of Trump. Like, really really bad photos. Maybe even crime-to-possess bad.

Literally the one place in the country where Democrats got their clock cleaned was in the home county of state chair who refused to endorse Mamdani and has generally overseen a string very poor democratic performances.
Has New York Democratic Party chairman Jay Jacobs resigned over Mamdani yet? I hope he hasn't, so that he can instead resign over *improving Republican margins over Trump 2024 in an anti-Republican wave election*. Trump won Nassau by just 4%—now look at this bloodbath
