@Nonilex@masto.ai "Senator #LisaMurkowski (R-AK) became Friday morning the 2nd Republican to say she would oppose his nomination in a floor vote..." People, c'mon, pay attention Murkowski (R-AK) just played her little "no I won't" game with #Trump about two weeks ago over some new requirement that was going to cost North Slope native Alaskans a thousand dollars in travel expenses to go down to Anchorage to do something Sure enough, that got dropped and suddenly Murkowski (R-AK) magically became a "yes I will" Watch for it to happen all over again The only drama is in "What's her price?" Remember: when dealing with Trump, as long as Trump gets what he wants in the end, nobody gets hurt #BlancheAG #DonaldTrump #Trump #JDVance #PeteHegseth #MarcoRubio #StephenMiller #MAGA #RepublicanParty #Republicans #GOP #ICE #2020ElectionFraud

@heidilifeldman@mastodon.social So No mention (that I've heard yet) of the #Trump #Motorcade down the length of the #ReflectingPool Is Trump going to hang his buddy the contractor out to dry, and pin it all on the contractor? Trump washes his hands of the entire event No surprise there #DonaldTrump #JDVance #PeteHegseth #MarcoRubio #StephenMiller #MAGA #RepublicanParty #Republicans #GOP

That moment when it dawned on Russia's Putin that taking over Ukraine wouldn't be as easy as taking over the US Republican Party. #Ukraine #Putin #RepublicanParty #USPolitics

Why am I feeling such a massive cognitive disconnect about this:

@ AP: "Officials sought phone records of NYT journalists and their relatives in an effort to unmask sources"

@ NYT: "Trump Says New Air Force One Will Be Taken Out of Service to Be ‘Maxed Out’

The Qatari-donated plane has been under scrutiny over whether it is fitted with sufficient defensive capabilities to adequately protect a U.S. president and others traveling on it."

So

Exactly what scores and scores of people were saying was a real and present danger about the #Qatari747 gifted to #Trump was in fact a problem all along

And yet the Trump administration is trying to subpoena #NYTimes staffs' families to find out who talked about it with who

When everyone knew about the security issues in the first place

What am I missing here?

Darline Graham Nordone Is The 'DEI Hire' Republicans Warned You About #DEIHiringControversy #RepublicanParty #PoliticalAppointmnent #SouthCarolinaPolitics #LindseyGraham https://newsone.com/6866312/lindsey-graham-darline-graham-nordone-dei-hire/

It's a day ending in 'y' so, off we go...

Laura Rozen -- @lrozen 44m

"Trump says reimposing Iran blockade and US will be charging a 20% toll for cargo ships using the Strait of Hormuz.

“We are reinstating the THE IRANIAN BLOCKADE…and as a matter of FAIRNESS, will be reimbursed, at the rate of 20% on all cargo shipped, for any and all costs necessary to do the job of providing safety and security to this very volatile section of the World.”"

So Trump is both closing the #StraitOfHormuz and reinstating a 20% toll over (what? shipping?) that will go into US coffers

Well, it is only Monday...

Let Trump get warmed up, people

Well then BREAKING, as they say: AP: "Sen. Lindsey Graham, a close Trump ally, dies after a brief and unexpected illness, his office says" "WASHINGTON (AP) — Sen. Lindsey Graham, one of President Donald Trump’s closest allies in Congress who traveled the globe to advocate for a more aggressive U.S. foreign policy, has died after a “brief and sudden illness,” his office said. He was 71." The thot plickens...

The Daily Beast Latest Articles | Opinion: A Car Crash President Is Driving His Party Off a Cliff. Buckle Up! by Michael Ian Black AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information. The piece argues that, bizarrely, Donald Trump – portrayed as the most corrupt and unpopular modern president – still wields an “unbreakable chokehold” on the Republican Party, as evidenced by this week’s primaries where Trump‑backed challengers ousted incumbents such as Louisiana Sen. Bill Cassidy and Kentucky Rep. Thomas Massie (the latter losing after demanding the full release of the “Epstein files”). The author notes that Trump has also turned on former allies like Marjorie Taylor Greene and Lauren Boebert for similar reasons, and wonders what fuels his continued grip: raw charisma, a twisted vision of America, or a messianic appeal to a base that ignores constitutional limits. The article cites a February poll showing 60 % of MAGA hard‑liners still support a third Trump term, despite its illegality, and warns that his influence could shape the 2026 midterms and set up a “rigged election” narrative for 2028. Ultimately, the author laments the tragedy of a party loyal to a leader who has built a $1.8 billion slush fund, defended the Jan. 6 insurrectionists, and threatens democratic norms, urging millions of voters to choose a different path in the upcoming elections.

The New Republic | Trump Used Shady Crypto Venture to Triple His Net Worth as President by Hafiz Rashid AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information. Donald Trump’s net worth has surged to an estimated $6.5 billion—up from $2.3 billion in 2024—after he profited roughly $3 billion from cryptocurrency between August 2025 and January 2026, primarily through the $TRUMP meme‑coin he launched just before his second inauguration, which briefly hit a $30 billion valuation before collapsing to under $2.50 per token; his sons’ firm, World Liberty Financial, now manages the venture’s crypto assets, including a USD‑1 stablecoin, and has attracted billions in funds tied to foreign governments such as the United Arab Emirates, prompting analysts to label the enterprise unethical and a breach of the Constitution’s emoluments clause, though the Supreme Court’s broad immunity rulings and partisan congressional support have so far shielded Trump from accountability.

yahoo news | Why this disillusioned Trump voter spends hours searching Epstein files Cayden McBride, a 19‑year‑old from Rome, Georgia, spends hours each night sifting through the Jeffrey Epstein files released by the U.S. Department of Justice. He combs through flight logs, transcripts, images and videos, driven by a belief that the material “matters” even as headlines shift to the Iran war. A self‑described “Trump guy” and Christian, McBride says the files expose “bad stuff” about the women victimised by Epstein and that the DOJ’s slow release and perceived lack of accountability have left many supporters of the MAGA movement disillusioned with both the former president and his former attorney general, Pam Bondi, who was recently removed from her post. The Epstein saga has become a flashpoint within the Republican base, especially among conspiracy‑theorist supporters who doubt the official suicide ruling and suspect a government cover‑up. While former allies such as JD Vance, Marjorie Taylor Greene and Kash Patel have echoed these doubts, President Trump initially pledged to push for full disclosure before softening his stance after pressure from victims and party members. The DOJ has now released all material it can, but many still claim crucial files remain hidden, fueling criticism that the Republican Party’s promised “accountability” is waning. At the 2025 CPAC in Dallas, the lingering anger over the Epstein files was evident. Attendees like Robert Agee expressed disappointment, saying Trump’s vague response—“are we still talking about the Epstein files?”—signaled the death of the movement’s anti‑establishment credibility. McBride, reflecting the growing skepticism, says he will keep voting but will not support any candidate implicated in the Epstein files or backed by Trump. The episode illustrates how the unfinished “Epstein” narrative continues to test the loyalty of Trump’s base and could reshape the coalition that once propelled his 2024 victory.
