Last night, Trump again called for the death penalty for drug dealers after a 2-hour trial (without appeals) and presenting the bullet to the executed person's family (based upon similar harsh actions by China, the Philippines and Singapore). The crowd cheered enthusiastically.

The Freedom Party, the extremists formerly known as the Tea Party, has a message for Kevin McCarthy.

“Look, we were told we were going to have an incredible, incredible wave. And if that would’ve been the case, any 20, 30, 40-seat margin, anywhere in there you would say, ok, Kevin is the presumptive Republican nominee for speaker​,”

Biggs said the Freedom Caucus is prepared to wield its influence over whether McCarthy becomes speaker to push its agenda and win concessions. ​

McCarthy, long wishing to hold the speaker's gavel, is also facing threats from Marjorie Traitor Greene. There's an old adage that goes "Be careful for what you wish for because you just might get it".

The Democrats ought to listen to this guy and follow his advice. They need to devise and execute a long game. They need to establish the message and stop letting the Repubs establish one for them.

This reminds of Israeli politics and their elections. Typically Likud forms a coalition with extreme right and religious parties (no other party trusts them) and within a few months its "no can do" and country has yet another election. Hope Kev's tenure if any is short lived and forgettable.

Well lah-de-dah. The evangelicals that were/are using the Reich-wingers that are using the evangelicals in the fight to rule over all, some of whom have decided that the tRump train won't take them where they want to go.
They, if he ends up being the nominee, will still vote for him because, you know, us Godless Democrats and all

Kyle Rittenhouse, the teenager acquitted of homicide related to the killing of two people in Kenosha, Wis., during a 2020 protest there, met with a group of House Republicans in the Second Amendment Caucus on Thursday evening.

Rittenhouse joined the lawmakers at a gathering at the Conservative Partnership Institute office near the Capitol, a common gathering hub for conservative Republicans. Rittenhouse shared his story and held a question-and-answer session with members of the group.

Reps. Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.) and Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) are the co-chairs of the Second Amendment Caucus. Those in attendance at the Thursday event also included Republican Reps. Andrew Clyde (Ga.) and Byron Donalds (Fla.), according to a source.

“It was an honor to have Kyle join the Second Amendment Caucus. He is a powerful example of why we must never give an inch on our Second Amendment rights, and his perseverance and love for our country was an inspiration to the caucus,” Boebert told The Hill in a statement.
