MAGA senator rips "a-hole" Trump for doxxing GOP colleague

GOP senator lambasts Trump for doxxing Republican colleague, says president goes from “zero to a-hole in three seconds”
GOP senator and Foghorn Leghorn impersonator John Kennedy of Louisiana excoriated Donald Trump on national television after the MAGA cult leader publicly shared fellow Republican Tom Cotton’s personal cell phone number and told his followers to harass the Arkansas senator for opposing a bill to make daylight saving time permanent.

“The president, as we know, can be sometimes — um — he exists loudly,” Kennedy said. “He can be tempestuous. He can go from zero to a-hole in three seconds.” There aren’t many things the 80-year-old malcontent-in-chief can do in “zero to three seconds,” but being an asshole is certainly one of them.

White House releases deranged Trump sales pitch video in desperate bid to stave off electoral disaster
The internal polling numbers must look every bit as abysmal as the public ones, because team Trump is getting downright desperate. Yesterday, they sat the wannabe dictator down in front of cameras to stumble and slur his way through yet another sad sales pitch promising every American adult a $5,000 bribe — if voters deliver a Republican electoral miracle in November.

Donald threw in a little demagoguery for good measure, warning of an imminent,1929-style depression if Democrats retake Congress. Got it.

Take Action: Do not let Donald Trump appoint another Supreme Court justice!

Mary Peltola is on the verge of a historic win in deep-red Alaska
Mary Peltola for Senate: Beloved Alaskan Mary Peltola won Alaska’s ranked-choice primary by 8%, has a commanding lead in the polls, and just defeated her Republican opponent, Dan Sullivan, at the debate table. But the race isn’t over yet, and there’s still a lot of time between now and November for Republican dark-money PACs to unleash lies and smears against her. We’ve got to strike while the iron’s hot. Will you chip in to help native Yup’ik fisherwoman Mary Peltola flip this critical red seat and make Trump a lame duck president?

Trump heads to Nebraska as Republicans forced to defend red-state Senate seat
When the MAGA cult leader is forced to turn up in red-state strongholds like Nebraska, Texas, Oklahoma, and Ohio to rally the troops and campaign for once-safe seats, you know the times are most certainly a-changing.

Take Action: Reject Trump’s dangerous new order on vaccines!

White House defends new 24-year-old press aide who posed with rifle while wearing a “Fuck Joe Biden” shirt
An evergreen reminder that the Republican Party under Donald Trump is not — and never has been — interested in toning down the incendiary political rhetoric. They simply want to muzzle, stifle, and squash any meaningful dissent from anyone who dares to disagree with their abominable agenda.

US Air Force withdraws all bombers from RAF Fairford in the UK after suspected terror plot
All US Air Force bombers stationed at RAF Fairford in Gloucestershire, England, have been pulled back to the United States following a suspected terrorist threat at the airbase. Flight tracking platforms recorded B-1 aircraft departing the airfield on Sunday as the fleet returned to its home stations.

The move follows the release on bail of a sixth man detained in connection with the security incident. British Counter Terrorism Policing confirmed the 25-year-old, a dual UK-Iranian national, was held on suspicion of preparing acts of terrorism. Five other British citizens, all in their mid-20s, were previously arrested on suspicion of explosives offenses and terrorism before being bailed.

FBI Director Kash Patel gets engaged to 27-year-old country singer girlfriend
Congrats to the happy couple, we guess, but if Keystone Kash hopes the public will take any less issue with him using the FBI’s private planes to jet off to Alexis Wilkins’ concerts now that she’s his betrothed, he’s surely got another think coming.

Take Action: Fire Kash Patel for his corruption and incompetence immediately!

CNN data guru makes stunning call in key race that may upend the Senate
CNN’s Harry Enten has made a stunning prediction in Texas, telling viewers that rising Democratic star James Talarico now has a 70% CHANCE of defeating sentient cigar cap Ken Paxton in what will be the Lone Star State’s most expensive Senate race in history.

Should Talarico pull off the victory, Democrats would have a nearly 78% chance of winning an outright majority in the upper chamber of Congress. Game on.

Trump’s support among Latino voters collapses as just 27% approve of his job performance
Anyone wondering how James Talarico could pull off the once-unthinkable in Texas need look no further than the spectacular collapse in support for Donald Trump among Latino voters. Turns out dehumanizing an entire hemisphere of people and overseeing an abhorrent anti-immigrant crusade has some decidedly unpleasant knock-on effects.

Soldiers and Gold Star families press Army leadership after deadly Iranian drone strike
Soldiers wounded and grieving relatives of others killed in an Iranian drone attack on Port Shuaiba in Kuwait on March 1, 2026, have a LOT of questions about exactly how and why they were left so exposed at the start of Donald Trump’s preemptive war in Iran, and the answers they’ve been given thus far simply are not passing the smell test.

Six soldiers were killed and dozens were injured in the deadliest known strike on US troops since Operation Epic Fury commenced on Feb. 28.

In the aftermath, many of the wounded — some with decades of service and combat experience — told The Associated Press that commanders had been warned that the facility, a rectangular building with wooden sides at a working seaport and industrial area south of Kuwait City, was particularly vulnerable to a drone strike. That warning went unheeded, the soldiers say.

Funny how we we’ve heard barely a peep from the GOP “BENGHAZI!” brigade in Congress, which spent more than FOUR years and millions of taxpayer dollars trying to burn then Sec. of State Hillary Clinton at the stake for that attack.

Former Republican House speaker and child molestor Dennis Hastert dies at 84
Dennis Hastert, the longest-serving Republican speaker of the House in US history and a central figure in the GOP’s sprawling investigations of Bill Clinton’s various sex-related scandals, has died at 84.

After leaving office, Hastert also spent more than a year in prison because he got caught making illegal payments to cover up child molestation accusations from his time as a teacher and high school wrestling coach in the 1970s. Hastert was accused of molesting four teenage boys, ages 14 to 17, but never faced sexual abuse charges because the statute of limitations had expired. He did plead guilty in 2015, however, to illegally hiding hush money payments to one of his sex abuse survivors and was sentenced to 15 months in prison for that crime.

May his victims finally find some measure of peace.
