Bwaaah MAGAts are turning on one another



As if they’re already rotting in the ground.
One exposed the fact that Donvict was informed about the big tech affair with the spy - now that one has his tax payer funded trips to football games exposed.

I need more butter for my popcorn.

"Don't talk about stuff that makes Democrats look bad!!!"

The examples of "Republicans turning on one another" aren't half as bad as what's happening, and will continue to happen, in the Democratic Party.

Let's analyze these dubious claims:

That is the fabled "according to sources familiar with the matter". There is zero proof that The President knew anything about this. Additionally, maybe you should ask Ro Khanna about this:

Well, Well, Well: Ro Khanna Seems to Have Sold His Nvidia Stock at a VERY Convenient Time

You'll never guess who managed to sell their Nvidia stock just in the nick of time, before the crash began.

Well, well, well

Rep. Ro Khanna sold
$NVDA
 right before Nvidia's CEO admitted to having a Chinese spy side piece

He's a member of the following:

- Strategic Competition between the U.S. and the Chinese Communist Party Committee
- Taiwan Caucus
- High Tech Caucus

Apparently, federal agents informed some lawmakers last year that Jensen Huang might be the target of a foreign intelligence operation

He avoided a ~26% dip

Nothing fishy in the least, considering as Secretary of State he is REQUIRED BY LAW to fly a private jet rather than fly commercially. This has been the precedent for decades.



WaPo Tried to Shame Marco Rubio for Being a Great Dad, and It Blew Up in the Blink of an Eye

The Washington Post tried on Wednesday to turn Secretary of State Marco Rubio's trips to his son's football games into a taxpayer scandal, then spent much of its own story explaining why it isn't one. It was an impressive bit of self-owning.

The paper reported that Rubio has made 23 trips to Gainesville, Florida, on military aircraft since March 2025, including 15 classified as personal. He has attended at least 10 Florida Gators games over the last two seasons, including five this fall.

His son, Anthony Rubio, is a senior and walk-on running back for the Florida Gators.

Using Defense Department rates, the Post put the flight costs above $1.2 million.

It's hard to imagine where the Post was going with this, but they clearly thought they had something. "Flying by pricey military jet, Rubio rarely misses a Florida football game," the headline sneers.

The same report also noted that Rubio "is required to travel by government plane," that, like the defense secretary and the directors of the FBI and CIA, he is "barred from flying commercially for security reasons," and that when he travels for personal reasons he must "reimburse the government the equivalent of an economy-fare ticket."

If that weren't enough, a government ethics expert told the paper that "Rubio's travel complies with federal rules."

Impeach! Or something.

“I have and will continue to try and make it to as many events that are important to me personally and to my family as possible,” Rubio told the Post.

That did not stop the paper from framing the trips as a cost to taxpayers and reaching for a comparison to former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg, whose personal travel was audited during the Biden years. Even that didn't work, as the Post itself pointed out that "the transportation secretary is not among the Cabinet members required to travel on military aircraft."

Assistant Secretary of State for Global Public Affairs Dylan Johnson said the secretary of state, like the President, Vice President, and Secretary of War, is "REQUIRED to use military aircraft to maintain access to secure communications" and added that Rubio is "entirely unapologetic and will continue to attend as many of his family's events as his jobs allow" — including "his son's football games for his final year of college football."

Johnson added that the Buttigieg comparison was "moronic."

Former White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt offered an alternative headline: "Washington Post confirms Secretary Rubio is a great dad."

Doffing my partisan hat ... the Dems are having an internal argument. Many hate Trump so much that all else is tertiary in priority; some, however, see that all else - domestic and foreign - as primary and attacking Trump as secondary or lower in priority. The number of the latter may be augmented by some of the incoming "freshmen". How that settles out remains to be seen, obviously. Both directions entail the potential for the Dems overplaying their hand.

But, if it says so in The Guardian it must be true, right?
