Her pivot could expose everything Washington wants buried...or prove the system still owns her. If Greene’s break is real...the GOP’s in trouble. If it’s not...America is. 🔥👇

Republicans in Congress strangely silent on the Argentina bailout to benefit Bessent’s friends.

It also helps you to avoid talking about it when you are never asked about it.

"30-year-old conservative lawyer and activist who is Trump’s nominee to lead the Office of Special Counsel, which deals with federal employee whistleblower complaints and discrimination" cancelled his colleague's hotel room so she would be forced to stay with him.
www.politico.com/news/2025/10...

In late July, Paul Ingrassia, the White House liaison for the Department of Homeland Security, arrived at a Ritz-Carlton in Orlando with a lower-ranking female colleague and others from their department. When the group reached the front desk, the woman learned she didn’t have a hotel room.

Ingrassia then informed her that she would be staying with him, according to five administration officials familiar with the episode. Eventually the woman discovered that Ingrassia had arranged ahead of time to have her hotel room canceled so she would have to stay with him, three of those officials said.

Why certain mainstream outlets insist on sanitizing Vought as a devout “small government” conservative – and what actually animates his war against pluralistic democracy.

Workers owe no loyalty to an employer who doesn't care for their workers.

Leadership is a two-way street, loyalty up and loyalty down. Respect for one’s superiors; care for one’s crew.

Buried in the polls, with every American screaming for the Epstein files, the walls are closing in on Tangerine Palpatine.

Sending troops to every city you can in a desperate attempt to make martial law happen is not strength. It’s the last gasp of a dying regime.

The local PD believes ICE called in a fake 911 call about protestors trying to break into ICE facility. Cops only found a CBS news crew shooting B-roll.

Now why would ICE do that?

Russ Vought is one of Trump's authoritarian architects, and he has no problem at all shutting down the government.

“We want to pot people in trauma.”

Like Stephen Miller, Russ Vought is ruthless, utterly evil, and utterly devoid of affection, exactly the qualities Trump needed and wanted….

The Republican Party is now clearly an Authoritarian Party. It embraces, condones, accepts & promises political violence, and does not accept electoral defeat. Their glorification of January 6 & trvmp pardoning those who participated proves that they're okay with a violent seizure of power.
