Trump at National Prayer Breakfast: "They rigged the second election. I had to win it. I needed it for my own ego. I would've had a bad ego for the rest of my life. Now I really have a big ego. Beating these lunatics was incredible ... The first time they said I didn't win the popular vote. I did"

Just for the record, billionaires spending tons of money to defeat a tax measure proves the point of the measure that they can afford it
I could be wrong but I tend to think the more than tech billionaires pour into measures to ward off attempts to tax them, the more likely those measures are to pass. www.politico.com/news/2026/02...

Bannon knows that deploying ICE to the polls constitutes illegal voter intimidation. So why is he encouraging Trump to break the law? Because he also knows this threat will work to suppress votes even if federal agents never get anywhere near the polls. The fear of ICE is enough to keep people home.

Stop beefing about Stancil. Stop beefing about (different anti-Trump camp you have entirely justified reasons to hate).
The only reward of all this is the laughter of our enemies, to quote Gandalf, and the illusion of agency from displacing your anxiety.

There aren't enough ICE agents to actually do this, but I think they're going for a chilling effect to reduce turnout. ICE needs to be abolished or at least unfunded so they starve before election day.

Jeffrey Epstein was a monster. His crimes were real. His victims deserve justice and are being revictimized right now by the DOJ.
Turning his private emails into proof of a Jewish conspiracy is pure antisemitism. And it is spreading faster than anyone is willing to say.

Where are the apologies from all the people who defended Miller?
David Miller is a former professor fired over antisemitism allegations who now broadcasts on Iranian state television.
He provides the intellectual scaffolding: framing Epstein's emails as evidence, giving academic veneer to what white nationalists say plainly.
