CNN anchor Kasie Hunt appeared staggered by her own Thursday supercut that the network assembled of President Donald Trump’s countless claims of Iranian surrender. Hunt played the massive clip after Trump’s latest claim on Wednesday that Iran’s leaders were yet again slavering for an end to the war that Trump began — despite the regime’s apparent acceptance of more U.S. air strikes and the closing of the pivotal Strait of Hormuz. Trump claimed Wednesday that Iranian leaders had “called a little while ago,” and they wanted “to make a deal so badly.” But this boast was nothing new. And network videographers had plenty of material to choose from to prove it. “We went back and took a look, of course, at what … Trump himself has said over the period of days. I want to play for you what that has sounded like over the course of the last several months,” said Hunt in a tone of warning. And then it came. “They want to make a deal.” — Trump, March 23 “… and they want to make a deal so badly.”...

The MAGA world is on fire hours after former Milwaukee County Circuit Judge Hannah Dugan was given a mere $5,000 fine and no jail time for helping a Homeland Security target evade capture by a handful of minutes. The former judge said she was trying to do the right thing when she steered an undocumented defendant in her courtroom away from federal agents. At that time, she said people were afraid to come to court for fear of encountering immigration agents, but the court requires a public unafraid to speak up. "I have been cast as both a scofflaw and a hero. I am neither. I am just a person who was trying to do my job," Dugan said while speaking to U.S. District Judge Lynn Adelman. But Dugan, 67, did not apologize for her actions after a jury found her guilty of obstructing a federal immigration proceeding. Adelman said prison and probation were unnecessary, saying Dugan has lived a life of public service and is not at risk of re-offending. “This is the case of a good per...

Left Hook podcaster Wajahat Ali and independent reporter Jim Acosta say they have no doubt that Republican leaders will try to duplicate their hide-and-seek tactic with “brain dead” Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) on Trump when the president inevitably deteriorates too far to function. “What they're doing with Mitch McConnell — clearly the man is brain dead. Clearly, he's not here — and Donald Trump is 80 years old. He has two and a half years left to finish his term,” said Ali. “Jim, he's an old man, and part of life is death. Suppose he becomes incapacitated in some way? Suppose, God forbid, he becomes brain dead. What we're seeing [with McConnell] is a sneak preview of what they'll do to cover up Trump's health.” Acosta cited Republican pundits and apparatchiks already claiming to have spoken to McConnell to push the ruse. “There are all these people coming out of the woodwork saying ‘oh I had I had a chance to speak with Mitch McConnell.’ I think [GOP pundit] ...

President Donald Trump could use the military to steal the 2026 midterms , which he and his fellow Republicans have panicked about losing , according to legal experts — although they emphasize that doing so would break centuries of precedent. “Just this year, President Trump said he regrets that he did not order the National Guard to seize voting machines after the 2020 elections,” wrote Lawfare’s Natalie K. Orpett, Molly Roberts and Loren Voss on Wednesday . “Steve Bannon urged Trump to ‘call up the 82nd and 101st Airborne’ in 2026 to ‘get around every poll’ and make sure that only citizens are voting. Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, when asked whether he would refuse an order to deploy troops to polling places during the midterms, avoided answering—and falsely claimed that troops were deployed to polling places in 15 states under Joe Biden.” The scholars pointed out that “the Constitution mostly reserves to the states the authority to administer elections, with a role for Congres...
Trumpy church torn apart over 'dumbest' political war

A Tennessee church thinks that it's fighting Satan when it's fighting the political culture war, and the modern crusade has turned a "charismatic" movement into politics. Extreme churches and beliefs that trend toward the more bizarre are those that often get ignored by politicians who don't want to be associated with something far outside of the mainstream. But the Tennessee church is using its charisma to turn culture wars into a very real battlefield where Satan is active in public life and Christians are called to fight back through prayer, prophecy and political engagement. An extensive report from The Atlantic details the journey of Andrea and Mike Brewer, the founders of the Well, where they promote their belief that the Earth is the battlefield on which Heaven and Hell fight. Mike Brewer tells a story about his addiction to adult videos and was leading an unhappy life. While praying, he heard voices calling to him and felt what he believes was a demon ...

A Texas bakery caught hard MAGA feelings for daring to attack President Donald Trump and calling MAGA “a cult.” The New York Post reports backlash kicked off after a July 3 Facebook post declaring the owners were “not wanting to celebrate the 4th this year [and] embarrassed, afraid, and disappointed” in what the United States has become. They also called the MAGA movement “a cult” and denounced the Trump administration. “MAGA is adversarial,” Flower Mound-based Hive Bakery wrote. “It’s a cult of unintelligent , rabid, immoral sycophants. Those conservatives who still have rational thought have left the MAGA movement. Those who remain and continue to support the most corrupt administration in our nation’s history, are here, wishing for our bakery to burn to the ground. Enjoy a little taste of this Americana.” The New York Post reports owners concluded their post saying: “We are open tomorrow from 10-6 as we refuse to observe this holiday.” “F—— this fa$ci$t regime and every single pe...
WSJ blasts Trump's foreign policy for helping China

President Donald Trump’s foreign policy is helping China at the expense of Americans, according to an editorial from one of America’s premiere right-leaning publications. “Iran’s regime hasn’t hid its intentions for the Strait of Hormuz: Iranian ownership, with passage by toll and permission,” wrote The Wall Street Journal , which has previously criticized Trump for being soft on China , in a Monday editorial. “The regime claims its memorandum of understanding (MOU) with the U.S. gives it that right, and it has used force to get its way. The latest step is an admission that ‘friendly’ nations such as China could get special treatment in the international waterway.” The editorial board added that Iran’s Ambassador to China said that that nation, along with others considered to be friends to Iran, may be given “special considerations” even as the Iranian government plans on charging “service fees” to all countries that go through the Strait. “That isn’t the free passage or open Strait t...
