Marjorie Taylor Greene went ballistic on Donald Trump over the weekend for his decision to bomb Iran, potentially entering the United States in another Middle Eastern conflict based on lies. Greene went on an epic rant about how the US was never attacked by Iran and how there is no real justification for anything that's happening, clearly telling us that Trump is lying without having to use that language.
A furious Donald Trump launched a verbal assault on Republican Representative Thomas Massie from Kentucky on Sunday, calling him a "pathetic loser" for opposing him on a few issues. Not long after the verbal attack, it was revealed that Trump has launched a new Super PAC with the sole purpose of funding a primary challenger to Massie in next year's midterm elections. This will be a test to see how much sway Trump actually has.
During an interview on Meet The Press over the weekend, Vice President JD Vance attempted to calm Americans' fears about a potential war with Iran by telling us that this was nothing like the lead up to the Iraq War. But his statement didn't leave anyone feeling better, as Vance claimed that the difference was that back then we had leaders who were "dumb." While that may be true, we also have leaders today who are very, very dumb, and Americans know that.
A top political analyst believes that White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt is about to hit her breaking point after just 5 months on the job. Salon's Amanda Marcotte said that the signs are there that Leavitt is struggling to keep her head above water, and that a breakdown could potentially come at any minute. This is likely going to happen before the end of the year, but that doesn't mean that we'll be free of Leavitt for good.
