It’s corruption on steroids in plain sight. He doesn’t even try to hide that he’s looting US and cashing in on insider trading. He’s the most corrupt president in American history.

A south Florida political journalist explains why GOPers are beginning to worry that Angie Nixon can beat Ashley Moody.

And like Alex Vindman, Moody is proving to be a terrible campaigner.
Moody runs and hides from the press and her campaign for the Senate is calling her opponent "Socialist Angie" over and over again. With gas prices high, the economy weak, an unpopular war, is that enough?

Talking to Republican consultants, they are worried about the Senate race in Florida. They still think Ashley Moody will win, but their confidence has waned in recent weeks. Moody does not generate any excitement and Vance's recent comments only energize the opposition.

@DeFede
As Republicans demonize
@AngieNixon
, and JD Vance tells her "you don't belong in America," they run the risk of having it backfire. Nixon can be a compelling figure. Here she is getting emotional when I asked her to tell voters something personal about herself.

Americans are relearning the lesson we learned during the Gilded Age of the late 1890s, when robber barons ran the government and the economy for their own benefit: Oligarchy is incompatible with the common good. I'm hopeful we'll respond with a new progressive movement.

Jack Smith's revelation that Trump paid for the organizers of the Jan 6 insurrection adds one more detail to the picture already in place. But it also darkens the picture. Trump is now competing with John Wilkes Booth for the title of worst American political figure ever. His crime was premeditated.

WaPo reports that Trump is stealing money again, this time money appropriated for (among others) Eastern Europe and sending it to Latin America. But I think stealing $$ from Iraq is just as important. www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

Late Wednesday, the administration quietly notified Congress it was defying the hold and moving ahead, diverting to Panama, Peru, Ecuador and Colombia $52 million that had been approved for Slovakia, North Macedonia, Tunisia and Iraq, the officials said. They spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss security matters.

Not mentioned in here, but something I'm holding my breath for. Not ONLY is Harmeet Dhillon an Indian immigrant. But her policy of doing away w/affirmative action WILL RESULT in more Asians at UT (and everywhere else). At some point there will be enormous backlash, esp w/Rufo out there.

One ¶ in a ruling issued yesterday holding Congress CANNOT set rules on voter qualification, & USG cannot prosecute non-citizens for voting in Fed elections. This opinion has been & will be misrepresented (& I am correcting my own misrepresntation).

Here’s the weird part, and it has real bite for our case: None of the rationales contained in the
opinions that upheld the voting-age provision in Mitchell were supported by a majority of the Supreme
Court. Importantly, five Justices rejected the view that the Elections Clause empowered Congress to
regulate voter qualifications in federal elections. Id. at 143 (op. of Douglas, J.), 210 (op. of Harlan, J.),
288 (op. of Stewart, Burger, and Blackmun, JJ.). Equally importantly, five Justices also rejected the view
that the Fourteenth Amendment empowered Congress to lower the voting age. See id. at 124–30 (op.
of Black, J.), 155 (op. of Harlan, J.), 293–94 (op. of Stewart, Burger, Blackmun, JJ.). The Mitchell
majority judgment on the voting-age provision, therefore, was formed by combining two divergent
rationales: one based on the Elections Clause and one based on the Fourteenth Amendment. So while
there were five votes for the result—upholding the voting-age provision for federal elections—there
were explicit majorities of the Supreme Court that rejected each of the rationales (the Elections Clause and
the Fourteenth Amendment) that allowed for that very result. Quite unusual, and it raises the question:
What is the precedential effect of Mitchell in that kind of situation?

Three years ago, the Free Beacon ironically named me man of the year on their website. "Don’t give up Ben, you have a whole lot of nothing to look forward to," they wrote. This year, I was on a TIME100 list. I would take this moment to tell them how they can suck me: from the back. Thank you.

We don’t know about Ben’s family or personal finances, but we certainly can’t disagree about his lack of skills. But for someone with absolutely no ability, Ben has found the perfect gig.

Don’t give up Ben, you have a whole lot of nothing to look forward to. Only now, when you do nothing, you'll do it as a Free Beacon Man of the Year.

Jack Smith: "History teaches that the rule of law is rarely destroyed all at once. It's often weakened by attacks on the institutions and the public servants sworn to uphold it. Since January 2025, we have witnessed precisely such an effort."
