New in PN: Schmitt happens all over effort to perjury trap Jack Smith "The GOP playbook relies on an absolute lack of shame, so Schmitt dutifully bellied up to the microphone to celebrate his flawless victory with the chuds keeping the grift alive in Charlie Kirk’s old studio."

In many red states, it's simply a question of whether you can get Trump's endorsement. So we wind up with idiots like Eric Schmitt, Tuberville and Darline Graham, if she wins I mean, Georgia Republicans nominated Herschel Walker because Trump told them to, for G-d's sake. And he almost beat Ossoff

Trump has said the Iran war is almost over at least 60 times. It's been 212 days. 19 service members are dead, 800+ wounded, $43 billion gone. We counted every broken promise with @votevets.org.

🤡 Schmitt beclowns himself 🤡 Schmitt concocted an elaborate conspiracy theory that Smith traveled to Atl for a Hawks game and to collude with Fani Willis, & flashed his "evidence" before accusing Smith of perjury. There's just one problem -- his facts were totally wrong. Here's the whole sequence:

You have got to be joking.
In private discussions over the weekend, network leaders said that Mr. Trump's decision to restart the barricade of CNN had left them choosing among several unpleasant options.
If the TV pool was indefinitely suspended and an emergency or crisis occurred, there would be no cameras to film Mr.
Trump, leaving the public relatively in the dark.
