Trump advisers are privately telling Zeto editor Asawin Suebseng that they’re worried President Donald Trump’s liberal use of pardons for allies and financial contributors may not be enough to save then when Democrats nab either one or both houses in November. They “tell me they’ve recommended to the president and other top Republicans that they should try to get creative in concocting ways to preempt lawsuits, or state and local prosecutions of Trump’s staff,” wrote Suebseng . “But even in the fevered fantasies of MAGAworld’s legal brain trusts, they know that is a tall order, at best.” Trump is happy to use pardons as presidential tool to free allies convicted of corruption, but staff are nervous that pardons can only go so far because they do not apply to all convictions. “After all, they say, state and local prosecutors still exist – and though mass pardons from Trump could make their jobs harder, some of those progressive prosecutors have openly signaled to the Trump adminis...

Republicans admit Trump is turning the midterms into a 'funeral'

Image
Republicans are getting worn down by the expectation of serious losses in November, says former Republican strategist Rick Wilson. “The mood from Republicans that I've talked to in the last few weeks is funereal,” said Wilson, a Lincoln Project co-founder who worked for the George H.W. Bush's campaign. “Behind [House Speaker] Mike Johnson's bluster they're running the on a message strategy. But behind that bluster, their rank-and-file members are desperate for Trump to shut up. They are desperate for him to stop doing insane things. They are desperate for him to stop picking fights with the Pope and invading countries and doing the things that have led them into this economic box canyon that they can't get out of.” Wilson told MS NOW anchor Katy Tur that Republicans are having to go back home to constituents, but they having nothing to tell them about. “They don't have a bill to brag about. They can't go home and say, ‘yeah, by the way, I cut Elon Musk...

Right-wing host slams GOP 'excuses' while voter enthusiasm tanks

Image
President Donald Trump insists that he is as popular as ever, but a right-wing radio commentator declared that Republicans are in danger of losing key midterm election races. “One wonders how many warning signs Republicans need to see that they have a problem in Georgia — and nationally,” Erick Erickson wrote for the Atlanta Journal Constitution on Wednesday . “But on April 7, they got another one.” Erickson referred to the recent House race for Georgia’s 14th congressional district, in which former Floyd County District Attorney Clay Fuller won by 12 points in a district that Trump won in 2024 by 37 points. The pattern, he said, has been reflected elsewhere throughout both Georgia and America. While it is reasonable to place part of the blame on local factors, Erickson laid a great deal of it at the feet of his own party’s president. “He keeps giving his supporters reasons for exasperation,” Erickson wrote. “In just the last week he dropped an F-bomb on Easter while praising Alla...

'Denied': Trump lawyer and J6 architect disbarred for good

Image
A Politico Senior Affairs writer reports that the California Supreme Court has declined to reverse the disbarment of conservative attorney John Eastman, one of the co-conspirators in President Donald Trump‘s plan to overturn the 2020 election. The decision came weeks after Bar Court Judge Yvette Roland ruled Eastman should be removed. Last year, A California appellate court, charged with reviewing recommendations to discipline lawyers in that state, affirmed the findings of a trial judge and recommended that Eastman 'be disbarred from the practice of law in California and that Eastman's name be stricken from the roll of attorneys .'" Eastman was one of Trump’s lawyers in 2020, and he played a big part in helping Trump try to overthrow the results of the 2020 election, which the former president falsely claims was “stolen” by Joe Biden and Democratic officials. Eastman helped devise a false elector’s scheme involving former Vice President Mike Pence invalidating t...

Trump is hurting the GOP — and they're powerless to stop him

Image
President Donald Trump’s antics are hurting Republicans as they head into the 2026 midterm elections… but they are not sure they can stop him. “The Iran war is a case in point,” reported CNN’s Aaron Blake on Tuesday . “Trump launched it without bothering to build a consistent case for it to the American people. The objectives have regularly shifted, and Trump seems unfamiliar with basic details.” Blake added, “He has threatened Iran with apparent war crimes and even warned last week that ‘a whole civilization will die tonight’ — before averting that course.” Between launching an unpopular war against Iran, threatening war against Denmark, posting an AI-generated image of himself as Jesus Christ and feuding with the popular American-born pope, Leo XIV, Trump is overall making it very difficult for Republicans to defend the party brand. “The most recent events have led even some former Trump allies — like ex-Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia, Candace Owens and Alex Jones, as w...

Critics sound alarm as Trump official calls separation of church and state 'a lie'

Image
Religion News reports the leader of President Donald Trump’s Religious Liberty Commission said out loud that church and state separation is a falsehood at the group’s final meeting — which immediately drew fire from a pro-Constitution advocacy group. At a Monday hearing at the Museum of the Bible in Washington, D.C., Texas Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick, a Republican and the chair of the commission, broached his claim, saying: “Would it not be a good recommendation that every school, every university, every business, has to have that one sheet on the bulletin board about protecting people’s religious liberty, and that the separation of church and state is the biggest lie that’s been told in America since our founding?” Patrick said posts proclaiming the death of church and state could be similar to federal notices from the Occupational Safety and Health Administration promoting safety and preventing hazards. Religion News reports Patrick posed his question to George Mason University’s Anton...
