How to buy yourself a needy malignant narcissist? Just offer him a phony, made up "Peace Prize" & he's all your's!!!
No need for a formal ceremony as he'll snatch from the box & put it on all by himself. Both laughably pathetic AND pathetically laughable. 🤡 🫣

Bongino saying the quiet--and cynical--part out loud.

In other words: I was making money shoveling conspiracy bullshit without having any facts and conning my audience to make a buck. After I leave the FBI, I will get back to that.

What a confession.

The top-10 carmakers by market cap make up 75% of global passenger car sales.

Tesla makes up less than 2%.

The Tesla bubble will be widely documented in history books.

Every dot on this map is a New Yorker who chipped in for the Transition to make sure we can hit the ground running on Day 1.

$3 million raised from all five boroughs. $1 million to go.
Thank you for powering this transition. Let's cross that finish line together.

They skewered Hollywood and gave a middle finger to the Man. They hailed everyday heroes & made us feel for bad guys. They reminded us that humans are flawed — but TV loves us anyway.

#Trump pardoned Tim Leiweke — who his own DOJ indicted in July for rigging a public university’s arena bid—

It’s all a grift — Saudis to crypto to pardon seekers — everything gets turned into a revenue stream. With 1,500+ pardons already, clemency is a monetized market

"Trump poured salt in Stefanik’s wounds when he chummed around with Mamdani in the Oval Office, undercutting her campaign attack that the mayor-elect is a 'jihadist.'" Stefanik is pissed. But she’s taking it all out on Mike Johnson.

#BREAKING: Over dissents from the three democratic appointees, #SCOTUS puts Texas's new House maps back into effect for (and, presumably, through) the 2026 midterms.

The three Democratic appointees, in an opinion by Justice Kagan, dissent.

I'll post the ruling shortly.
