The Dumbocrats got the tables turned on them in Congress by Secretary of State Marco Rubio. Rubio had appeared back-to-back before the Senate Appropriations Committee Wednesday morning and a House Appropriations subcommittee Wednesday afternoon in his first appearances since the Iranian War began.
Instead of asking him questions, the Democrats in attendance — like Sen. Tammy Duckworth of Illinois and Rep. Sydney Kamlager-Dove of California — chose to grandstand. Kamlager-Dove even got up to leave when Rubio attempted to answer her.
Here, Rubio does a pretty good job underscoring the political games they were playing. Trish Regan covers the action.
The [Deep State] is running out of time. President Donald Trump is dismantling the system and gaining leverage. Trump will finish the job and take control over the House and Senate with the patriots in place to finish the job.
Trump has placed temps into position because the people on the sidelines will be confirmed quickly.
Iran and [Deep State] are in trouble. Trump is just waiting them out. Trump is following the plan. Trust the plan. Here’s more from the X22 Report.
An 83-year-old House Democrat has mysteriously gone missing in action – and with zero explanation.
U.S. Rep. Frederica Wilson of Florida has not voted in the U.S. House of Representatives since April 17th, missing close to 50 votes. This comes as Republicans hold a slender majority, while Democrats struggle to counter them.
Wilson represents a House district located around Miami in Dade County, Florida. Here’s more from The New York Post.
New charges involving scandalous promiscuity have been brought against U.S. Rep. Thomas Massie, the traitorous Kentucky Republican who has fought repeatedly with President Donald Trump. Massie pictures himself as a valiant truth teller, pushing revelations that relate to the dirty pedophile Jeffrey Epstein.
It turns out Massie was the one playing fast and footloose with sexual improprieties. He placed an ex-girlfriend as a Congressional intern with one of his cronies, U.S. Rep. Victoria Spartz of Indiana. The girlfriend, Cynthia West, went to work for Spartz in Washington DC, but only lasted a few months on the job. She was let go by Spartz as West’s relationship with Massie drew to a close. She says she found him to be a sexual deviant.
That’s when Massie tried to buy her off, she says, pressing upon her to accept $5,000 and walk away. Here’s more from Doug In Exile.
You can't say that Thomas Massie isn't principled
When he tries to pay hush money to an ex-girlfriend to stop her from revealing his bizarre conduct, he does so with his personal funds, not taxpayer dollars. Very libertarian

Some of the darkest secrets in Washington D.C. are becoming more clear with Eric Swalwall resigning from the U.S. House after allegations of criminal sexual contact, not only with hookers, but also quite possibly minors.
Here, George Santos, the former New York Congressman railroaded out of his seat in 2023, weighs in on Swalwell as well as other Congressional scofflaws, including Ruben Gallego, Cory Mills, Tony Gonzales and Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick. Some face sexual charges, while others, like Cherfilus-McCormick, stand accused of pocketing Covid-19 money.
“Look, I wouldn’t be shocked if underage activity starts coming forward. When a man goes down a rabbit hole this dark, this deep, Benny, I think there’s a lot more to be uncovered,” Santos tells Benny Johnson.
How long have these deadbeats engaged in criminal conduct right under the gaze of the fake press? Why didn’t anyone address these issues until now? There’s plenty more in Santos’ discussion with Johnson.
U.S. Rep. Eric Swalwell, the Democrat who had been running for governor of California, has resigned from Congress as evidence mounts of his criminal sexual assaults on women. There are charges of rape, and even cases involving women who might not be of legal age.
Also, it’s looking as if Swalwell might not be the only Democrat to fall in this scandal. Some analysts are now suggesting his longtime buddy and traveling companion U.S. Rep. Ruben Gallego, an Arizona Democrat, might also have taken part in these sexual shenanigans. There’s a man pictured with Swalwell in a hotel room with a hooker, and the man’s anatomical features closely match Gallego — although we can’t see his face, so it’s not 100 percent clear that it’s him.
Gallego denies he was there, of course. But while the evidence remains somewhat murky, there’s a growing focus on Gallego. Don’t be surprised if his ox gets gored as well. Here’s more from the Liberal Hivemind.
Since the downfall of Eric Swalwell, his amoral colleagues in the Democratic Party have been scurrying like rats. Ruben Gallego isn’t the only one looking nervous as hell.
We’re seeing lots of them dotting their is and crossing their ts, among them, Ted Lieu and the champion of sleazebags Adam Schiff.
Here’s more from Neil Johnson, who says he hasn’t had this much fun swatting flies in a long, long time.
She had major backing from members of the Democratic congressional sorority known as The Squad, but that didn’t help 26-year-old progressive influencer Katherine “Kat” Abughazaleh win her attempt to enter the U.S. House.
The Palestinian American leftist has lost her primary in Illinois’ 9th House District. She had endorsements from Rashida Tlaib as well as from such hardcore leftists as Ilhan Omar and Jamaal Bowman, but that couldn’t lift her above Daniel Bliss, mayor of the Chicago suburb of Evanston. Here’s more from the New York Post.
Mike Lee, the Republican Senator from Utah who is the chief sponsor of the SAVE Act, is now “guardedly optimistic” that he and Senate Majority Leader John Thune have figured out a way to get the election reform bill passed. This is key because the bill has languished for quite some time in the Senate, owing to fierce opposition from Democrats and the existence of a few Republican holdouts.
The holdouts have been the problem — the Republicans only have 53 Senators, so a couple of defections could put the bill under the table. But Lee, his ally Sen. John Kennedy of Louisiana and Thune believe they can prevail when the bill is due to come up for a vote later this week. Their plan involves using a hybrid of the Senate’s rules governing “talking filibusters.”
Let’s hope this happens, not only so our elections won’t be so corrupt and fraudulent, but also to put the House and Senate working together again to move the country forward. The Senate’s delays have not only pissed off the majority of American voters who support the bill, but also the majority of House Representatives backing it. Some, like Rep. Anna Paulina Luna of Florida, have vowed not to pass any legislation whatsoever until the Senate delivers on the SAVE ACT. Here’s more from Steve Turley.
