Republicans have spent the last decade demonstrating that none of the rules matter and all these safeguards we were told exist to protect us were just lies and Democrats just keep running around going "BUT EXCUSE ME, SIR, THE RULES???" as if Republicans would ever give a shit.

Claire McCaskill, "I have to think that there are more than four votes that would not show up for Matt Gaetz in the Republican caucus. I did a rundown on the Republican senators and came up with 11 names that I think would likely oppose a Matt Gaetz."

🚨 STRAIGHT MIC DROP! GREG GUTFELD: "There are different people. There are people who, when they hear an awful crime, when Molly Tibbetts is m*rdered [by an illegal], they think of their wife, they think of their kids, they think of their sister, they think of their mother." "What do Democrats think about? There's a step before they even think about their family. They think, 'how does it affect my public persona? How does it affect my potential politically? How do I deal with this so that I get instant gratification and empathy?'" "We don't think like that. We don't care. You can call me a monster that's saying all these people are getting deported. I don't care!" "I don't care about any of this performance anymore, Jessica. It's done. And you know what? Neither does Trump. People are voting for the law. They want the law. If you want to cry about m*rderers and r*pists, do it on your own time!"

Summer Lee on I've had it podcast : "I think that it gets more difficult before it gets better. You know, I think that we're in an era right now where voters are really demanding something that I think is a bit unusual, right? Uh and that is that the Democratic party, our elected officials choose them, right? There is more active participation. And sometimes I think the Democrats mistake lack of voting or that type of, you know, electoral engagement for engagement or for apathy. But people aren't apathetic. People are incredibly tuned into this. And when they see our elected officials taking just remarkable amounts of dollars from, for instance, Apac or other super PACs, it's discouraging to them. It's disenfranchised. It's disappointing. And right now, Americans are saying, "We don't want Forever Wars. We don't want our tax dollars to go to continuing genocides or expanding them." And they're very, very clear about that. So, I think that the Democratic Party's going to have to get they're going to have to wake up to this one. And I think that it's not going to go away. And I think that perhaps they're hoping that it just does."

Today, Democrat Leader Hakeem Jeffries designated Democrat Rep. Rep. Glenn Ivey as the acting leader of the House Democrats for the day. @loomerunleaahed Charles R Downs asked Ivey how President Trump standing up to Islamic terrorists in Iran constitutes high crimes and misdemeanors or mental incapacity, the Democrats’ favorite excuse to impeach and remove Trump. Unsurprisingly, Ivey dodged, saying: “I am not on impeachment today.” So House Democrats rant on CNN about removing Trump, but when directly questioned about the legality of their claims, they immediately talk in circles. It’s also important to note that Jeffries put Ivey in charge so that House Dems could push to strip Trump’s war powers and start 25th Amendment talks. These people are deranged liars.

BREAKING: Hakeem Jeffries is doubling down on his calls for Democrats to wage "maximum warfare" against President Trump. "I stand by it. You can continue to criticize me for it. I don't give a damn about your criticism." This comes as Polymarket shows the odds of Republicans retaining a majority in the senate are back on the rise.

🔥 BREAKING: Karoline Leavitt just UNLEASHED on Hakeem Jeffries after he lost it and shamelessly INSULTED her "Hakeem Jeffries is simply lashing out because he KNOWS that I am telling the truth about the modern day Democrat Party. What I said, and it is a fact, is that the Democrat Party caters more to pro-Hamas TERRORISTS, illegal aliens, and violent criminals." "That's why they overwhelmingly LOST the election to President Trump and the Republican Party. And that's why they're holding this country HOSTAGE right now from law-abiding, tax-paying American citizens who want the government to be open." "Hakeem Jeffries should stop calling me names. He should stop trying to fight my boss, President Trump. And he should go back to doing what he was elected to do, the business of the American people in Congress, and encourage Senate Democrats to open the government." "I see Hakeem Jeffries saying, 'House Republicans are out! They're not even here!' Yeah, because they DID their jobs! They passed a clean continuing resolution at the behest of President Trump to keep the government open. And now Senate Democrats and Chuck Schumer are blocking that to fight Donald Trump. And it's DESPICABLE."
