Sign up here Over the weekend, it was reported that the suspect in the 2021 attempted pipe bombing on the eve of the January 6 riots, 30-year-old Brian Cole, appears to be a Trump supporter disappointed by the 2020 election results. Cole allegedly left explosive devices outside both the Republican and Democratic National Committees, which fortunately did not detonate. Law enforcement linked him to the incidents through cell phone records, license plate tracking, purchase records, and surveillance video. Reports suggest Donald Trump may have engaged in mortgage fraud similar to what he has publicly accused Democrats of doing. In 1993, he claimed two Florida properties as primary residences to secure favorable mortgages, even though he never lived in them. By contrast, the people he criticized genuinely intended to live in their homes, making their actions legal.

While there is no confirmed evidence of dementia or Alzheimer’s, the lack of transparency and delayed disclosures leave many unanswered questions. RESEARCH SEN. TOM COTTON HISTORY!

At the Kennedy Center Honors dinner, Trump compared the Supreme Court and Senate to a fantasy football roster, obsessed over marble tiles, bragged about construction projects, mocked Biden’s golf, and claimed women thanked him for making Washington safe. IT HAS BEEN REPORTED THAT JEWISH LASER QUEEN ENSURED THAT SHE RESIGNED AFTER SHE WAS ENTITLED TO ALL THE CONGRESSIONAL RETIREMENT FREEBIES Marjorie Taylor Greene is resigning from Congress on January 5th. In her 60 Minutes interview, she attempted a mea culpa which only strained credibility. She admitted Republicans had privately mocked Trump while publicly supporting him, said Trump had fueled threats against her and her son, and blamed the media for political toxicity. She distanced herself from MAGA, called herself America First, and offered no clear plans for the future. Finally, Donald Trump went on Truth Social to defend his pardon of Democratic Congressman Henry Cuellar and, in doing so, admitted that his pardons operate as quid pro quos. He framed the pardon as a “life-saving” act requested by Cuellar’s daughters, but immediately warned that if Cuellar continued working with Democrats, his generosity would not repeat.
