this isn't a republican fucking things up, it's a sort of democrat fucking things up. this rich bitch has a beef with elon musk and wants to use the elections to have a pulpit to bully from...he just blatantly admits it. i hope he spends millions and still fails miserably. if he causes a republican to win, someone should start punching him in the face every time he appears in public.

Now we know why they shouldn't be allowed to amass untaxed wealth with a stupid pass thru on non W-2 ponzi scheme the GOP set up.

it would just tickle me pink as fuck if Disney told desantis to get fucked and built themselves a new park in a blue state, like Maryland or Deleware, and turned all that property in Florida into a homeless refuge. how many campsites can you fit onto 30,000 acres of land? enough to make desantis pop a blood vessel in his forehead, i bet.

Mitch McConnell calls Donald Trump's bluff in Alaska
On Monday, the Senate Leadership Fund, the super PAC aligned with McConnell, announced that it had booked more than $7 miIlion worth of ad time in Alaska as GOP Sen. Lisa Murkowski tries to fend off a challenge from Kelly Tshibaka, who has been endorsed by the former President. (The group also reserved ad time in six Senate battleground states.)
The move to defend Murkowski isn't terribly surprising -- McConnell has made clear all along that he supports Republican incumbents, including Murkowski.
But the super PAC's decision to commit $7 million -- by way of context, that's roughly how much Murkowski spent on her 2016 reelection race -- to Alaska means that McConnell is sending a not-so-subtle message to Trump: Time to put up or shut up.
See, Murkowski is crushing Tshibaka in fundraising. As of March 31, Murkowski had more than $5.2 million in the bank to spend on the race; Tshibaka had less than $1 million.
The incumbent was already on pace to heavily outspend the challenger. And now, with the McConnell super PAC weighing in, the advantage on the pro-Murkowski side is, well, massive.
Who could help close that sort of financial gap? How about the former President? His Save America PAC had $110 million -- not a typo -- in the bank as of the end of February.
Except Trump doesn't seem inclined to spend that money. As The New York Times wrote over the weekend in a terrific piece on the Trump political organization:
"Mr. Trump can be downright stingy. Though he holds rallies for some candidates, for many his support goes no further than an email and a $5,000 check. Mr. Trump has almost never deployed his huge list of supporters to help other politicians raise money."
Might that stinginess be changing? Trump's PAC did recently give $500,000 to a super PAC attacking Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp. So, maybe?
What we do know is that McConnell isn't screwing around in Alaska. And the ball is very much in Trump's court.

Secretly recorded call adds to controversy swirling around Cawthorn
A former district staff member for Rep. Madison Cawthorn (R-N.C.) is accusing him of improperly firing her after denying her family and medical leave, allegations the lawmaker and his office have vehemently denied.
At one point during the call, Lisa Wiggins, who was a caseworker for the 26-year-old first-term representative in his district office for over a year, described that office as having “more liquor bottles than they do water bottles.”
Cawthorn’s office insinuated that the allegations, made in a secretly recorded and released conversation with the head of an anti-Cawthorn PAC, were politically motivated, and hinted at potential counteraction by saying that they constitute “defamation of character.”

If they don't offer him a deal, it will be because they already have Roger Stone in the bag for something else.

looks like dr. oz should have been on faux news, instead of abc...you would think a competent doctor would know about checking your diagnoses before publishing it. of course, the guy he's lying about is an unmitigated douche bag liar himself, so i guess it doesn't matter.
just shows that even heart surgeons can be fucking stupid, greedy, lying pieces of shit who kiss an insurrectionist's ass

after reading this, i'm not quite so upset with desantis for wanting to remove these powers from Disney, they basically got them under Walts plan, which Roy scrapped, so the powers should have went out the window in 1967 to begin with

Yeah but he will take his lunatic base with him, if he goes out with a bang, or even a whimper. They make up a big part of the party's base, since you've gotta be nuts or an idiot to be a republican these days. Dividing America's idiots is the only hope and Donald taking revenge on the republicans might do it, they will believe anything he says, no matter how absurd.
Donald couldn't run a stick up a cow's ass, much less a business, give a lot of business or tech students the capital (not much) and they could start a social media company with little trouble..

Trump is moving from a political figure to that of icon and inspiration, eventually he will be a legend among America's morons and fascists. He has inspired the con artists and lunatics of America to run for office at all levels, including those who count the votes. He left a considerable shit stain behind him. One good thing though, the republicans won't get much of the $100 million he sucked out of the base and that house candidates depend on. Other than primarying his enemies, he won't spend any on republican candidates, that money is lost to them.

The thing about the mouse in house, Orange County is going to have to pay for the fire, trash, water, sewage, etc, etc, now that the old deal has been broken. Plus there is a lot of debt involving their (the mouse's) infrastructure. No one knows how it will all shake out. But I would bet taxes are going to go up on everyone in the neighborhood.
