Donald Trump went completely off the rails over "Escalatorgate" after it was revealed that his own Secret Service triggered the escalator stoppage while his staff ran the teleprompter that he cried about during his speech. He's now demanding that there be ARRESTS of UN staffers for embarrassing him, even though it was his own staff that made that happen. This man is absolutely insane, and he's clearly getting worse.
A pair of Republicans in the US House of Representatives have put forward legislation to have Charlie Kirk's face printed on US currency. The currency would be a limited-edition run of silver coins, but this idol worship with Republicans is getting absolutely out of hand. Other Republican lawmakers have requested that Speaker Johnson place a statue of Kirk in Congress. The insanity never ends with these freaks,.
A series of special election victories this week gave Democrats the number of votes needed to finally get a discharge petition passed in the House of Representatives that would force a floor vote on releasing all of the Epstein files. This is a nightmare for both Republican Speaker Mike Johnson and Donald Trump, as the two men have been fighting for months to prevent the public from seeing what is hidden away in those files.
Vice President JD Vance is currently going around and trying to fix all of the reputational problems that Donald Trump has created for himself in the past week. Vance is busy writing off, excusing, and outright lying about all of the things that have happened, including the government pressuring ABC to drop Jimmy Kimmel along with Trump's hate-filled comments at last weekend's Charlie Kirk memorial.
Donald Trump threw a massive, juvenile temper tantrum after Jimmy Kimmel returned to the airwaves this week, and he also tossed in another threat against ABC for bringing him back. Not only did he come across as an unhinged, madman, wannabe dictator, but he also managed to blow up the Right's talking points where they falsely claimed that the administration was NOT trying to silence the media. Trump's rage gave up the game, as Farron explains.
