Trump's possible cabinet members leaked, THEY'RE INSANE

Leaked details of former President Donald Trump's potential 2024 cabinet unveil a troubling lineup of extreme partisans, including Stephen Miller, Senator J.D. Vance, Stephen Bannon, Mike Davis, Tucker Carlson, and Kash Patel. These choices suggest Trump's intention to surround himself with loyalists willing to pursue authoritarian measures, such as targeting and jailing critics, deporting undocumented immigrants, and deploying the military for controversial purposes. This plan ties into the immediate concern of Trump's unrestrained second-term ambitions, and the broader Plan 2025 and Agenda 47, which involves mass firings of career government employees across departments to be replaced by loyalists. This comprehensive strategy, encompassing both personal and institutional dimensions, underscores the significant threat that a potential Trump return poses.

Fox Host DERAILS Biden conspiracy segment: NO EVIDENCE of crime

In a recent Fox News segment, Steve Doocy disrupted discussions on Biden's impeachment by asserting an unusual viewpoint from a right-winger—there is currently no evidence linking Biden to any crime. Doocy’s Fox News colleagues appeared visibly uncomfortable with his deviation from the network's usual narrative. The conversation pivoted to Republicans in Biden-supporting districts being hesitant to back impeachment, fearing voter backlash. The hosts discussed the lack of concrete evidence connecting Joe Biden to illegal activities, contrasting it with the Department of Justice's findings on Hunter Biden. The discussion also touched on Republicans' claims of a cover-up, emphasizing a poll criticized for its bias toward Trump supporters. The overall sentiment reveals a faction of Republicans eager to impeach Biden, even without clear evidence, as political retaliation. Despite this, doubts and disagreements within Fox News itself hint at potential backlashes and political miscalculations for House Republicans pursuing impeachment.

LOL: Trump BACKS OUT of testifying at civil fraud trial at the last minute

Former President Donald Trump has backed out of testifying in his New York civil fraud trial at the last minute, contradicting earlier statements by his lawyer, Alina Habba, who asserted that he would testify. Despite having previously testified as a witness for the prosecution, Trump changed his mind, declaring the trial a "complete and total election interference" and "Biden campaign Witch hunt." The trial, involving a $250 million civil fraud case against Trump and his company, has entered its final week. Critics argue that Trump's history of reneging on promises to testify, such as in the Trump University and E. Jean Carroll trials, reflects a pattern of avoiding self-incrimination due to his unpredictable, dishonest, and volatile nature. Legal experts suggest that putting Trump on the stand poses risks of inconsistencies and conflicts in his testimony, potentially harming his defense. The trial's outcome could have significant implications for Trump's business ventures in New York, potentially marking a decisive blow to his business life in the state.

Ron DeSantis' wife tells non-Iowans to ILLEGALLY VOTE in Iowa caucus

Ron DeSantis recruited his wife, Casey DeSantis, to bolster support ahead of the Iowa caucuses. However, controversy arose when Casey suggested, incorrectly, that anyone, including non-residents, could participate in the caucuses. Despite the legal restrictions limiting participation to registered Iowa voters, Casey urged mothers and grandmothers nationwide to come to Iowa in support of their campaign. The erroneous information brings about accusations of advocating illegal activities. After criticism, Casey attempted to clarify, suggesting that non-residents could participate by registering to volunteer. Critics argue that DeSantis, a proponent of law and order, is now associated with promoting illegal actions. The developments coincide with DeSantis facing challenges in Iowa, where his campaign is reportedly faltering, raising doubts that he can even come in second place.
