An interesting trend recently is Trump comms staffers being 100 percent confident the supporters they're talking to won't click the link in question.
Despite what we provided to this outlet, they chose to both completely misrepresent what we provided and run with a false narrative. Specifically, they misrepresented the concept of "fidelity." "Fidelity" refers to upholding the Constitution and the law and executing policy with loyalty to the American people and their interests. It emphasizes the critical importance of service, integrity, and policy alignment across the Foreign Service. It is not about partisan behavior but rather about executing the President’s vision for foreign policy.

NEW!! GOP Sen. Kevin Cramer says he received a briefing today from Air Force Sec. Troy Meink on Starshield, raising concerns over U.S. reliance on SpaceX. “Fighting wars” can’t be so dependent on private companies, he says.

"Senator Klobuchar, now your opening statement?" "lol after that I'll just pass, thanks."
yikes -- Lisa Demuth struggled just to get through her opening statement during her debate with Amy Klobuchar, losing her train of thought and taking looooooooong pauses while she tried to figure out what she was saying

A funnier joke would've been for her to turn to Demuth and say "Look, I know these things are nerveracking and you're new to this, so how about I cede my opening statement time to you, and you can try yours again."

Can't script this: A week after TX-34 candidate Eric Flores sent a cease-and-desist to take down a Dem ad showing him next to Trump, the WH announces POTUS will be going to ... TX-34
A sign of the times ahead of November: GOP candidate Eric Flores is in a tough race to try to flip a South Texas seat — and he wants to pull down a billboard ad by his opponent Rep. Vicente Gonzalez promoting his endorsement from Trump and his support of ICE. My scoop: washingtonsun.com/campaigns/…

I actually think Netflix is suffering right now for the opposite reason. From the newsletter yesterday:
People are losing the attention span to even watch 30 minute TV shows as short form video eats the world.

A genuine political problem for both Vance and Vivek is that, unlike Trump, neither of them quite has the stomach to be as unapologetically, leeringly cruel as the MAGA base demands.
After backing Vivek Ramaswamy’s ad at a rally and saying he was “disgusted” by Republicans “whining” about it, JD Vance said, "Getting into the middle of that drama is not something I want to do.” Follow: @AFpost

Q: Do you tell Elon Musk to bring back Starlink for Ukraine? TRUMP: I don't want to say. I don't want to comment on it. The bottom line is he put it back

In 2024, Trump complained bitterly that Jack Smith violated the 60-day rule by filing a motion -- even though the deadline was dictated by SCOTUS... Blanche was his lawyer at the time.
Q: The typical practice is DOJ doesn't usually release charges this close to an election. Even though Ms Lucas isn't on the ballot, her daughter is. So can you speak to the reason of the timing? BLANCHE: The 60 day or 90 day practice is not in writing. That's not part of the justice manual. There's nothing improper.

One slight obstacle: DOJ has no legal authority over the certification of election results.
NEW: Attorney General Todd Blanche declines to rule out post-election action from DOJ in state certification processes, citing theoretical “doomsday” scenario. “It is never our intention to improperly interfere with elections,” Blanche says.
