Looney Joy Reid Claims ‘Every Single Republican Would Say Yes’ to Trump Selling the USA to Russia

MSNBC host Joy Reid claimed that “every single Republican would say yes” to President Donald Trump selling the country to Russia during her show on Thursday night.

Reid made the unhinged claim during an interview with House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries about the upcoming battle over the spending bill.

“What’s the point of passing a budget if Republicans have already conceded that they are not in charge, that you or the Congress is not in charge of spending money?” Reid said.

The pundit continued, “Elon Musk is. What’s the point of passing a budget if it’s really Elon Musk’s decision whether that budget is adhered to?”

Jeffries attempted to ease Reid’s panic by claiming Republicans might switch sides and vote with the Democrats.

“It only takes three House Republicans to do the right thing on behalf of the people that they represent,” Jeffries said.

Reid fired back, “But we’ve seen, Leader Jeffries, that there aren’t three. There aren’t any.”

“If Donald Trump announced tomorrow that he was selling the United States to Vladimir Putin personally and that we will now be owned by the Kremlin, every single Republican would say, ‘Yes, sir,’ and vote for it,” she claimed.

“We already have seen their behavior. We’ve stopped – I think most of us – have stopped expecting any different behavior from them.”

White House Indefinitely Bans AP News From Oval Office And Air Force One, Citing ‘Irresponsible, Dishonest Reporting’

Following earlier reports this week regarding the Associated Press being temporarily banned from the White House Oval Office, Trump’s deputy chief of staff announced on Friday that the outlet is now indefinitely barred from entering both the Oval Office and Air Force One.

The announcement follows the left-leaning outlet’s refusal to comply with President Donald Trump’s executive order renaming the Gulf of Mexico to the “Gulf of America.”

White House Deputy Chief of Staff Taylor Budowich continued to blast the outlet’s decision to ignore the executive order in an X post on Friday.

“The Associated Press continues to ignore the lawful geographic name change of the Gulf of America. This decision is not just devise, but it also exposes the Associated Press’ commitment to misinformation. While their right to irresponsible and dishonest reporting is protected by the First Amendment, it does not ensure their privilege of unfettered access to limited spaces, like the Oval Office and Air Force One,” Budowich wrote.

Turncoat Mike Pence Attacks President Trump Again – This Time as Trump Works to Bring Peace to Ukraine

The last time we heard from Turncoat Mike Pence he was urging Republican Senators to block Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.’s Senate confirmation.

Before that, Pence said he was “literally praying” that Trump would not pardon the innocent January 6 political prisoners.

Now, Pence is spouting off trashing President Trump for working to bring peace to Ukraine.

Who’s paying this guy?

President Trump held calls with Russian President Putin and Ukrainian President Zelensky on Wednesday. Trump is expected to hold meetings with Vladimir Putin in Saudi Arabia. And there is talk that Trump was invited to Russia for talks.

Mike Pence sees this is bad news. On Tuesday Pence tweeted this out.

Democrat Rep. Says Supporters Want Them To Use “Actual Weapons” To Stop Elon Musk

Democrat Representative Robert Garcia of California claimed on CNN Wednesday that supporters want their Party to use “actual weapons” to fight back against Elon Musk and DOGE.

Yes, he really said that.

After doubling down on calling Musk a “dick.” Garcia stated “I think it is really important, and what the American public wants is for us to bring actual weapons to this bar fight.”

“This is an actual fight for democracy, for the future of this country, and it’s important to push back…” he reiterated.

Push back with actual weapons?

Sounds kinda insurrectiony.

Judge Who Blocked Trump’s Spending Freeze Calls Him a ‘Tyrant,’ Decries Racism as a ‘White People Problem,’ and Advocates Packing His Court with ‘People of Color’ Because It’s ‘Too White’ in Resurfaced 2021 Footage

In a striking example of judicial activism, newly unearthed footage from 2021 exposes U.S. District Judge John McConnell for what he truly is—an Obama-appointed activist masquerading as a judge.

Judge McConnell, who recently blocked President Trump’s initiative to freeze federal spending and audaciously accused Trump of defying his court order, is exposed in a resurfaced video as he lambasts the Trump administration and pushes for identity-based sentencing and the creation of a race-obsessed committee within his court in his attempt to inject his progressive ideology into the legal system.

The interview was conducted in January 2021 and has been published on Helen Cooke’s YouTube channel.

In the footage, uncovered by Natalie Winters, co-host of Steve Bannon’s War Room, McConnell asserts that “racism is a white people problem” and advocates for special sentencing considerations based on gender identity and race.

McConnell: When you’re sentencing someone, you have to take a moment and realize that this middle-class, white, male, privileged person needs to understand the human being that comes before us. That may be a woman, may be Black, may be transgender, may be poor, may be rich, may be whatever—may have experiences that are not yours. And you have to walk in their shoes and understand that the law applies to them where they are. And then you have to apply the law accordingly.”

Democrat Rep. Perfectly Boils Down Party’s Agenda When Given Just 30 Seconds To Speak…

Democratic Congresswoman Maxine Dexter, whoever the hell she is, provided a moment of pure clarity when she was told she had just half a minute to speak at the never ending Screechfest protest they’re holding.

When required to boil down the Democrats’ agenda into a sound bite, Dexter, or ‘Madder Maxine’ if you prefer, came up with “we have to fuck Trump.”

That perfectly encapsulates their outlook on every issue, no matter how sensible Trump’s policies might be.

They really have nothing else.

‘The View’ Co-Host Ana Navarro Says Trump Will ‘Ban Black People’ From Performing at Future Super Bowls 

The View co-host Ana Navarro has suggested Trump will ban black people from performing at the Super Bowl.

Her comments came after Kendrick Lamar’s half-time show bombed during Sunday’s final between the Kansas City Chiefs and Philadelphia Eagles in New Orleans.

During Monday’s edition of The View, Navarro said that Trump would sign an executive order banning black people from ever doing the half-time show again.

She explained:

You know I don’t do sports, you know I don’t do football, so I wasn’t watching the game. But listen, I think today Donald Trump is going to sign an executive order banning black people from halftime.

Because you remember last week we were talking about whether the NFL was capitulating to Trump by removing the term’ End Racism’ from the end zone? Boy, did they not capitulate to Trump.

When I saw Samuel L. Jackson dressed as a black Uncle Sam, introducing Kendrick Lamar, who then had like an entire formation of all black people making a U.S. flag-, listen!

This much I know, all the black people on my feed were like, ‘Oooo, this is blackity, black, black!’ And all the racists who somehow get in? Man, where they hopping mad.

So if the racists are mad, I am happy as a clam.

Mental Health Experts See Massive Increase In “Despair And Burn Out” Among Democrats

Leftist outlet Axios has published an article claiming that mental health experts are seeing a huge increase in patients who are Democrat voters complaining of “despair and burn out” in the wake of President Trump winning the election and taking office for the second time.

The piece claims that the worn out whiners are whinging about not being able to keep up with the pace of Trump’s “rapid fire policies.”

The article notes “Mental health professionals say even people who don’t see themselves as directly affected by administration actions are feeling frazzled by the dizzying pace and Trump’s enduring ability to command attention.”

“They may feel it through the venting of a spouse, the distress of a neighbor with a trans child or an anxious friend who works for a government contractor,” it hilariously adds.

The piece further states that Andrea Bonior, a Georgetown University psychology professor “said she’s seen an uptick in patients, particularly Democrats, expressing a sense of burnout, guilt and despair at losing an old way of life.”

It adds that “Bonior pointed to federal workers who aren’t sure if they’ll be let go as well as others concerned about their immigration status or worried about loved ones whose refugee flights were canceled.”

Speaking Of Lawfare… CT AG Tong And Blue State AG Coalition Sue To Stop Cost-Cutting Efforts At HHS And NIH, Including $35M From UCONN

Connecticut Attorney General William Tong and 21 other attorneys general today sued the Trump Administration, the Department of Health and Human Services, and the National Institutes of Health (NIH) over new guidance on indirect costs (e.g., depreciation, interest on debt, general administrative expenses) at universities and research institutions across the country that would bring such costs in line with market rates.

Pursuant to the new guidance, there will be a standard cost rate of 15% across all NIH grants for indirect costs in lieu of a separately negotiated rate for indirect costs in every grant.

Per NIH, it is “obligated to carefully steward grant awards to ensure taxpayer dollars are used in ways that benefit the American people and improve their quality of life.  Indirect costs are, by their very nature, ‘not readily assignable to the cost objectives specifically benefitted’ and are therefore difficult for NIH to oversee.”

The indirect cost rate reported by NIH has averaged between 27% and 28% over time. And many organizations are much higher—charging indirect rates of over 50% and in some cases over 60%.

Most private foundations that fund research provide substantially lower indirect costs than the federal government, and universities readily accept grants from these foundations.  

For example, a recent study found that the most common rate of indirect rate reimbursement by foundations was 0%, meaning many foundations do not fund indirect costs whatsoever.  In addition, many of the nation’s largest funders of research—such as the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation—have a maximum indirect rate of 15%.  And in the case of the Gates Foundation, the maximum indirect costs rate is 10% for institutions of higher education.

Dems flirt with government shutdown threat despite past furor over spending cliff

Democratic lawmakers are fueling concerns of a partial government shutdown, warning they may withhold support for any plan in protest of President Donald Trump‘s shakeup of the federal government. 

Left-wing leaders who have warned of the catastrophic consequences of government shutdowns in the past are now publicly signaling it could be a possibility – and they are already positioning to blame Republicans.

“What leverage do we have? Republicans have repeatedly lectured America, they control the House, the Senate and the presidency. It’s their government,” House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., told reporters when asked about what concessions he would seek in exchange for Democratic help to avert a partial shutdown. “We are in the governing season, and so we’re ready to work together on any issue. But I’m also confused about the leverage that we allegedly have in the face of such an overwhelming mandate that was given to Republicans by the American people, according to them.”
