Trump May Have Demanded IRS Revenge Audits of James Comey & Andrew McCabe
In what could be yet another crime possibly committed by Donald Trump and/or the people around him, Former FBI Director James Comey and his deputy Andrew McCabe may have been the victims of revenge audits by the IRS for having investigated connections between Russia and the 2016 Trump campaign. Both Comey and McCabe were subjected to targeted IRS audits, which are very rare and have only a 1-in-30,000 per year prevalence. Out of 153 million tax returns filed in 2017, only 5,000 people were chosen for these supposedly random audits and Comey and McCabe just so happened to be two of them. A spokesperson for Donald Trump has denied knowing anything about these audits. The chances of these two individuals being selected for these types of audits in the same year are so miniscule it suggests there’s something fishy here to investigate.
Trump Signals He's Running in 2024 in Bizarre Post
Donald Trump signaled yet again that he plans to run for president again in 2024 in posts he made to his social media platform Truth Social. Trump seems to think that proclaiming himself a presidential candidate will prevent prosecutors from charging him, so he’s trying his best to use that to his advantage. The ex-POTUS said on Truth Social, “Why would a future President of the United States want to have candid and important conversations with his White House Counsel if he thought there was even a small chance that this person, essentially acting as a ‘lawyer’ for the Country, may some day be brought before a partisan and openly hostile Committee in Congress, or even a fair and reasonable Committee, to reveal the inner secrets of foreign policy or other important matters. So bad for the USA!” Trump was referring to how former White House Counsel Pat Cipollone was expected to meet with the January 6th committee. Certainly, the former president is worried about what Cipollone may have to share with them and is doing his best to get out ahead of the story.
From yesterday’s show:
Republican Says She Would Shoot Her Own Grandchildren (???)
Republican Congresswoman Debbie Lesko bizarrely said on the House floor this week that she loves her grandchildren so much she would do anything for them, including shoot them. Making matters even more strange, when asked to clarify her statement, Lesko refused, leaving many confused about what exactly she meant. She said on the House floor, “I have five grandchildren. I would do anything, anything to protect my five grandchildren, including as a last resort shooting them if I had to to protect the lives of my grandchildren.” Perhaps Representative Lesko meant that she would shoot one of her grandchildren if they were threatening the other four with a gun. But without any sort of explanation this proclamation doesn’t make any sense and it is yet another example of the out-of-control gun culture we have in many parts of the United States.
From yesterday’s show:
WOW JOE BIDEN: Gas Prices Down 22 Days in a Row!
Gas prices have trended downward for twenty-two straight days and the people who were blaming Joe Biden for prices at the pump surging are not giving him any credit for prices starting to go back down. The AAA national average for a gallon of gasoline is down to $4.72 after reaching a record high of $5.01 just a few weeks ago. The reason for the decline largely has to do with demand calming down as people don’t want to pay so much for gas and are choosing to forgo driving when they can. Of course, presidents have very little to do with the price of gasoline and these high prices exist all over the world right now, so it was always ridiculous to blame Biden for them. What presidents can do to affect gas prices is release more oil from the strategic petroleum reserve and to institute a gas tax holiday. Even these measures can only save consumers a few dimes per gallon which is why there’s often hesitancy surrounding exploring these options in the first place.

[I don't know if you covered this but...] Recently, Majorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) blamed the gay community for the 4th of July massacre. She is a very dangerous politician/person and should be under the care of a psychiatrist (if not locked up in an insane asylum). She is out of touch with reality, and is appealing to the Far Right in order to gain sympathy for Donald Trump. She dreams up these ridiculous things with nothing to support them. SHE was the one who introduced the idea that Dominion was responsible for the "fake" election results. They were going to sue her (and Mike Lindell) for slander. Did they ever do that?
