… Explosive new revelations from the new Bob Woodward book that Trump has been having secret phone calls throughout his post-presidency with Vladimir Putin. He has never disclosed the reason for those calls or what was said, but I think we can all imagine he was receiving his marching orders.
… In one of the most bizarre legal filings yet, Rudy Giuliani asks the court to delay trying to collect on the $2 million in legal fees Trump still owes him from his 2020 election challenge lawsuits because it would create a “media frenzy” if the court forced Rudy to essentially sue Trump for stiffing him. Maybe the best part is that it means that Trump will end up paying Georgia election workers Freeman and Moss out of Rudy’s unpaid bill.
… At JD Vance’s rally in Michigan, there were 12 people there with ‘Autoworkers for Trump’ shirts. A reporter from Detroit News was able to get 6 of them to talk to him. All 6 said they were not autoworkers but one of the organizers told them to put the shirts on. This same thing happened months ago when people were at a rally with ‘Union Members for Trump’ who admitted they weren’t in any union. Everything with the Trump campaign is scripted, fake and staged.
… Elon Musk appeared on Tucker Carlson’s Twitter show where the two of them had a good laugh joking about why nobody had tried to assassinate Kamala Harris or Joe Biden. Two of the most toxic, evil, dangerous people on the planet.
… While Trump continues to speak to the same right-wing echo chamber day after day in his Fox and Newsmax interviews, Harris continues to branch out to new voters with recent interviews. She drew 7 million viewers on 60 Minutes, 10 million listeners on Howard Stern, 2.7 million on Colbert and appeared on the 2nd most popular podcast in America (Call Her Daddy). Solid 24 hours.
… Harris unveiled a major new policy proposal on The View that impacts millions of Americans by having Medicare cover home healthcare by family members instead of just Assisted Living Facilities and hospice. Really smart move.
… Lara Trump claimed that every time she flies on a plane people with tears in their eyes slip her cocktail napkins with notes on them saying how much they love her father-in-law. She didn’t disclose that this was probably on Trump Force One.
Lara’s husband Eric Trump was sworn in as a St. Lucie, FL county Deputy Sheriff today by a Sheriff recently appointed by Desantis. The Sheriff who appointed Eric has been in one controversy after another and is desperate for help in his election. Eric say he always dreamed of being a cop, and that day has finally arrives. He actually has arrest powers under Florida law now.
… Kari Lake continued to look for a way to resuscitate her struggling Senate campaign against Ruben Gallego by attempting to reprise Dr. Oz’s infamous crudités commercial from 2022. Lake complained the 2.25 pounds of hamburger for $13 was completely outrageous and it was all the fault of Democrats. They are used to playing to their dumbed-down base and then don’t know how to pivot to scoop up the middle.
… Harris went on Colbert and drank a Miller High Life. She compared her recent rally crowds to Trump and noted that people often leave his early because he is a “loser.” She then laughed and said, “This is what happens when I drink beer.”
… Oklahoma Schools Chief Ryan Walters complained about leftist media reporting on his unconstitutional scheme (I feel seen) to mandate Bible study in public schools, and how the strict criteria he set out would force taxpayers to buy 55,000 Trump Bibles. He claimed he has no idea which Bible will win the multi-million dollar contract even
