Dennis Hastert died. Who's that? He was the longest serving Republican Speaker in history, a registered sex offender and a serial child molester. But somehow most Americans don't know about him. Anyway, he's in hell now.

What better way to spent valuable time on a Sunday show a month before enormously consequential midterms than national political media demonstrating yet again how out of touch they are by continuing their relentless promotion of Emanuel’s presidential aspirations.

We have to crush these sociopaths. The problem is that many Democrats take money from them, which means they will get bailed out at our expense in the next 2-4 years.

At a time when the most influential leaders of the U.S. need to stand up loudly and clearly for the rule of law, they are leading the charge in the opposite direction. But not Jack Smith. Kudos to him for continuing to be a much needed voice of clarity.

It's one thing to be so incredibly incompetent as Eric Schmitt that your dramatic "GOTCHA" moment falls apart in real time. It is quite another thing to be so incredibly dishonest as Eric Schmitt that you then go on a right-wing show and pretend it didn't happen. "My job is to ask the questions."😜

Susan Collins was at the center of a major bribery probe for steering millions in contracts to a company whose CEO illegally funneled thousands to her campaign. Then Trump took office and gutted the FBI and DOJ units investigating her. Is this what "being moderate" looks like?

This weekend thousands of American patriots stood up to Trump's attacks on the Kennedy Center with a simple message: HANDS OFF.   This & every monument in America belong to the people, not to any President. We must continue to speak out; silence only emboldens Trump's lawbreaking.

What makes the outbreak of Trump scrubbing off GOP websites particularly chancy is a lot of these candidates only had any juice BECAUSE they were close to Trump or endorsed by him. Without that many aren't particularly strong candidates.
