Pete Buttigieg would be a good DNC spokesperson.

He would do a GREAT job of going around the country, being on TV all the time, and putting out Dem messaging on EVERY issue.

He would be an excellent counter-Leavitt. And we NEED one. He should be holding regular press conferences and putting

Mamdani & Trump meeting in the Oval Office

Reporter: โ€œStefanik has called #Mamdani a 'jihadist.' Do you think you're sitting next to a jihadist right now?โ€

#Trump: โ€œNo, I don't. I met with a man who's a very rational person.โ€

Stefanik has to be so mad - ๐Ÿ’€

A tweet from โ€œAdam Mockler @adammocklerโ€ reads:
โ€œStephen Miller just went on Fox News and said telling troops to refuse illegal orders is an โ€˜open act of insurrection.โ€™ He is telling on himself.
They are planning to give illegal orders, and they want a military that will follow them blindly.โ€

I get that MTGโ€™s pension vests Jan 3, 2026. But that pension pales in comparison to the money she could grift by staying in her job until her term is up. I canโ€™t figure out why sheโ€™s leaving a year early. Sheโ€™s worth $25M. The pension is peanuts.

REVERSE-LC clinical trial update: I had a good 3-4 weeks followed by increasing symptoms and fatigue. I'm certain I'm on 4 mg of baricitinib bc I've needed extra labs. I've now lost 10% kidney function ๐Ÿ˜ฌ so dropping to 2 mg.

Ghislaine Maxwell will plead Fifth in House Epstein probe, Comer says The late sex offender's convicted co-conspirator has been subpoenaed by the House Oversight Committee.

Interesting. Ghislaine Maxwell's lawyers says she will plead the fifth if forced to testify to Congress. But she willingly sat down with Todd Blanche? What a load of horseshit. www.politico.com/live-updates...
