BRUTAL: Dem Senator DECIMATES Pete Hegseth
During Pete Hegseth's confirmation hearing, Senator Tim Kaine aggressively questioned him about past allegations of infidelity and a controversial settlement, challenging his claims of innocence. Hegseth repeatedly denied wrongdoing, but Kaine criticized his lack of transparency and judgment. Despite the intense questioning, Republican senators and MAGA supporters are likely to overlook these issues.
Why Trump health crisis is going viral
Donald Trump's declining health, including cognitive issues and obesity-related risks, may affect his political future. Despite claims of being a "super ager," his age and lifestyle increase the likelihood of health problems. If a crisis occurs, that could play a significant role in his second term.

BLOCKBUSTER Special Counsel report: Trump WOULD HAVE been convicted
Special counsel Jack Smith’s report reveals clear evidence that Donald Trump committed crimes to overturn the 2020 election, but his 2024 victory shields him from prosecution. This failure of accountability undermines democracy, effectively placing Trump above the law. The report highlights Trump’s corruption, from inciting the January 6th mob to spreading lies and intimidating witnesses.
From yesterday’s show:
Marjorie Taylor Greene bravely demands they manipulate the weather to stop fires
Marjorie Taylor Greene suggested using cloud seeding to stop California wildfires, ignoring the basic requirement of actual clouds. Her misunderstanding reflects a broader MAGA trend of misidentifying both the causes and solutions to issues, often blaming conspiracies or unrelated factors. This mirrors her past weather-related claims, like accusing the government of creating hurricanes.
