Only in a government run by Trump and a State Dept run by Rubio can an unqualified grifter like Kim Guilfoyle remain Ambassador to Greece after all the scandals that have come out just in the last week. But she obviously has A LOT of dirt on the president’s son, so tough to fire.

🚨 IOWA SENATE SHOCKER: Josh Turek is within striking distance of flipping a seat Democrats haven’t won since 2008. Trump carried Iowa by 13 points in 2024. But anger over the economy & the Iran war has transformed the race. A Turek win would help Dems take back the Senate. Let’s finish this. #Vote
