Happy to hear German Chancellor Merz doesn’t support Russia’s return to the G8 . He said it could only happen if all G7 member states agree, but right now all of them, except for the US, well, kinda don’t wanna.

If McClain took an oath “to the commander-in-chief”, she took the wrong one. 🤡
BLITZER: I want to be precise. Should members of the US military obey clearly illegal orders?
McCLAIN: You're asking an enlisted person for their opinion on what they think is legal. That's a pretty slippery slope. Follow your commander in chief. That's the oath that you took

If MTG truly believes that she can run for president, she would do well to read the Epstein client list into the congressional record, then move to vacate the Speaker’s chair. Might as well go out with a bang.

GOP investor James Fishback is entering the Florida governor's race, challenging Trump's pick
Another GOP contender has launched a bid to succeed Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis as Florida's next governor, teeing up a broader challenge to President Donald Trump 's chosen candidate to lead his adopted home state. James Fishback, a 30-year-old investor who lives in Florida's rural Panhandle region, formally announced his candidacy Monday, immediately taking shots at Republican Rep. Byron Donalds, who has Trump's endorsement and the inside track on the race to replace DeSantis, who can't run again in 2026.
