Decent old lady. Political news. I love summertime. I don't appreciate adults who behave badly.

GOP congressman calls President Trump an “apologist for Putin.” This is criticism that had been reserved for private among many republicans but is increasingly - and notably - out in the open.
He’s an apologist for Putin and the Russian invasion. It’s an embarrassment.

So, Fox is going with: "It's been shown to be a lie, & we've found 0 evidence to back any of it up, but still it's why didn't they care to deny it more." This is also how the lies about the 2020 election (and the restrictive laws that the lies have justified) have worked.

Tapper: "How worried are Republicans about Paxton losing? Well, we've apparently reached a brand new campaign stage where the vice president is insinuating that the Texas Democratic Senate nominee, James Talarico, is gay ... not exactly the sign of a party convinced they can win on their record or ideas"

JB Pritzker: The reason that I have traveled the country is because it's good for Illinois if we can elect a Democratic Congress in Washington. They have taken away SNAP benefits and Medicaid, and we've seen huge losses for states all across the country as a result of what Donald Trump is doing. We need some checks and balances against Donald Trump. That is why I've gone to places like Texas and I've gone to places like Arizona, because I want to make sure that those that are standing up against Donald Trump and for working families get elected.

Nice try. And by the way it’s the west side not “West Detroit.” But you’re a Florida man, so we don’t expect you to know that.

Richard voted for Donald Trump three times. Then the Iran war sent diesel prices soaring. Now he’s voting for Jon Ossoff. Here’s why:

Mike Rogers second wife worked for Paul Bremer in Iraq. Rogers divorced his wife in 2007 and married Kristi Clemens in 2010. After her Iraq job, Kristi launched the U.S. branch of Aegis, a security contractor, which got a billion dollar contract after Mike Rogers became chair of the Intel Committee. Kristi Rogers took credit for it in a now-deleted bio. Then in 2014, Rogers faced criticism from the right for slow-walking the Benghazi investigation in order to protect his wife and her firm, which was doing work in Libya. After his divorce, Rogers broke, his disclosures show. His wealth surged as his wife’s company raked in taxpayer money. Details here:

The Moron and Lunatic in the White House has now declared China and Russia aren’t helping Iran, and that if they were, “we would know about it very fast.” We do know. His own Defense Secretary told senators they are. Trump is covering for Putin and Xi in the middle of a war as they help Iran kill American service members.

You have been in the Senate almost 6 years and haven’t put them FIRST yet. Instead you are complicit in the Trump tariffs that crippled many of their markets, stayed silent when Trump decided to dump 300,000 metric tons of cheap imported beef into the US when our cattlemen are hurting and their herds are thin and stayed silent about a war that has driven up costs of fertilizer, gasoline and diesel fuel. The Senate passed a Farm Bill when I was there but all you seem to have done is to trade farm commodity futures in order to make money for yourself.
D.C. Doug and the Democrats don’t realize that our food isn’t grown on the shelves in grocery stores. They constantly throw our farmers and producers under the bus. As your Governor, I will put our outstanding farmers FIRST. I’m proud to have led multiple “Farm Tours” to hear from hundreds of farmers across our great state.

1. Trump’s new White House press secretary, Katie Zacharia, says she is a lawyer. She has claimed to be a lawyer repeatedly on national TV, on podcasts, and on social media. But there is no evidence that Zacharia has ever been licensed to practice law.

WH Press Secretary Katie Zacharia has deep ties to Communist China, working in Beijing for years at Chinese law firm Zhong Lun. Zhong Lun regularly acts as counsel for Chinese state agencies, state-owned enterprises, and cross-border transactions tied to Chinese government strategies like the Belt and Road Initiative.
Q: You said Zacharia is an attorney. Where did she pass the bar exam? What state? ZACHARIA: When I moved to China

Republicans are fans of abuse. There’s no other way to spin this. Jon Husted and Vivek and every other Ohio Republican on the ballot must denounce Trump‘s comments and this attack immediately.
holy shit -- a protester at the Trump rally gets physically assaulted after they interrupt the rally by a man who punches her in the face. Trump smears the protester as a "fat guy"
