Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) announced Friday that he will strip funding for Ukraine out of a Pentagon spending bill after Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) joined conservatives in blocking the legislation from advancing earlier this week.

Ted Cruz Plays The Race Card Because He's An Attention Whore

Texas Senator and part time podcaster Ted Cruz shared a wild theory that President Joe Biden will drop out of the 2024 race by August....“So here’s the scenario that I think is perhaps the most likely and most dangerous. In August of 2024, the Democrat kingmakers jettison Joe Biden and parachute in Michelle Obama,” Cruz said. “I view this as a very serious danger.”

I can understand why some people don’t like immigrants.

DeSantis and other Republicans have repeatedly attacked Fauci — who served in the Trump and Biden administrations — over pandemic policies including mask mandates and the COVID vaccine.

Dear God, These Pro-Lifers Are Anything But...

California sued two organizations over unproven treatments that claim to reverse medication abortions in the state’s Superior Court in Alameda County Thursday.

“Those who are struggling with the complex decision to get an abortion deserve support and trustworthy guidance — not lies and misinformation,” California Attorney General Robert Bonta (D) said in a statement. “And let me be clear: the evidence shows that the vast majority of people do not regret their decision to have an abortion — more than 95% of patients who undergo an abortion later say they made the right decision.

Former President Trump on Wednesday knocked billionaire conservative megadonor Charles Koch as “highly overrated.”

His comments were in response to reporting from June that Koch raised tens of millions of dollars to try to find an alternative to the former president in 2024.

“Very stupid, awkward, and highly overrated Globalist Charles Koch of the Koch Network doesn’t have a clue,” Trump said in a post on Truth Social, his social media platform.

Schumer tees up votes on top military nominations in face of Tuberville blockade

Schumer tees up votes on top military nominations in face of Tuberville blockade

Senate Majority Leader Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) on Wednesday moved to tee up votes on three military nominations, including for Charles “C.Q.” Brown to become the next chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, marking Democrats’ first maneuver to get around Sen. Tommy Tuberville’s (R-Ala.) hold on more than 300 promotions.

In an act of desperation, Sen. Tuberville is trying to use a procedural step to overcome his own holds

You read it right. His own holds.

He is trying to make himself the gatekeeper of which officers are promoted or languish

We can't allow this to continue. We're taking action. - Chuck Schumer

Has Another Trump Rat Jumped Ship?

One of Donald Trump’s former lawyers flipped on him in the Georgia indictment, new court documents revealed Wednesday.

Lin Wood was one of the first to promote the falsehood that the 2020 presidential election had been stolen. He was part of Trump’s legal team that unsuccessfully tried to overthrow the election. The Georgia grand jury had recommended Wood be charged for trying to overturn the state’s election results, but Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis declined to do so.

Cassidy Hutchinson, the former Trump aide turned crucial January 6 witness, says in a new book she was groped by Rudy Giuliani, who was “like a wolf closing in on its prey”, on the day of the attack on the Capitol.

Describing meeting with Giuliani backstage at Donald Trump’s speech near the White House before his supporters marched on Congress in an attempt to overturn the 2020 election, Hutchinson says the former New York mayor turned Trump lawyer put his hand “under my blazer, then my skirt”.

Trump Is Hearing Footsteps. Good.

EXCLUSIVE: In the past several months, Donald Trump has had a burning question for some of his confidants and attorneys:
