March 28, 2024Updated 1:16 p.m. ET NYTimes A Republican operative who said he had been groped by Matt Schlapp, the head of one of the nation’s largest conservative advocacy groups, dropped his lawsuit against Mr. Schlapp after receiving a $480,000 settlement, according to three people familiar with the deal.

Let's stop equating MAGA beliefs / Trumpism with "conservatism" or even "far right" positions. MAGA is neither right nor left. It is a toxic spew of emotional and psychological distortions based on hatred, projection and denial of reality. There is nothing "conservative" about government dictating women's reproductive decisions, support of Putin's aggression, election interference and insurrection, tariffs, denial of science, etc.

Trump hasn't met a grift he doesn't like.

We have a huckster running for POTUS:

Schlapp has his hands in more men's pants than a tailor.

Funny how the the J6 crowd went from Antifa to political hostages?

A lead Kremlin propagandist, Margarita Simonyan, the head of state broadcaster RT, was already claiming on Saturday that the Americans’ warning ahead of the attack indicated they were participants in preparing it. If you have to lie for goodness sake make the lies a bit more plausible

Classic Pump and Dump fraudulent scheme. And also classic trump. It will be a penny stock in very little time.

I am reminded of the Reichstag fire. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reichstag_fire

'It was a perfect bankruptcy. Beautiful. Many people are saying it. Believe me, you've never seen such a perfect bankruptcy. Bigly. People come up to me with tears in their eyes, and say 'Sir, no one has ever declared bankruptcy as perfectly as you.' Tremendous. I have the best attorneys who will also declare bankruptcy. You know it, I know it, everyone knows it. No collusion.'

One of the major arguments for Trump was that he was independently wealthy and so would not be beholden to rich donors. Wonder what the new rationalization will be. https://www.reuters.com/world/us/trump-campaign-pleads-one-million-donations-cash-crunch-looms-2024-03-20/

Said the Emmy voting on The Apprentice was rigged. Said the Obama stole the election from Romney. Said Cruz rigged the primary in Iowa & Colorado in 2016. Said the Texas primary was rigged in 2016. Said Rubio rigged the FL primary in 2016. Said Hillary was planning to rig the 2016 general election. Said the 2020 election was rigged and stolen. Said the 2022 election was rigged. Said DeSantis was rigging the 2024 Iowa primary. Says the 2024 election will be rigged. This guy is a LOSER. It's pathological with him.

Two days ago I headed over to Breitbart. There were four stories about Moreno on their main page. Because the AP recently published a story about him using Adult Friend Finder to find young male companions to have fun with while he was on vacation. All of the stories on Breitbart were trying to disprove this story. HA! https://apnews.com/article/ohio-senate-election-2024-bernie-moreno-09e34f6331708c192c89d7c1727c2458

COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) — Jared Kushner, Donald Trump’s former White House adviser and his son-in-law, praised the “very valuable” potential of Gaza’s “waterfront property," suggesting that Israel should remove civilians while it “cleans up” the area. “Gaza’s waterfront property, it could be very valuable, if people would focus on building up livelihoods,” Kushner said in an interview dated Feb. 15, posted earlier this month on the YouTube channel of the Middle East Initiative, a program of Harvard University’s Kennedy School of Government, and reported first on Tuesday by The Guardian. “If you think about all the money that's gone into this tunnel network and into all the munitions, if that would have gone into education or innovation, what could have been done?” “It’s a little bit of an unfortunate situation there, but I think from Israel’s perspective, I would do my best to move the people out and then clean it up,” Kushner added. “But I don’t think that Israel has stated that they don’t want the people to move back there afterwards.”

“Remember Donald used to tell us he was worth $10 billion? He should be rolling in money if that’s the case. And evidently, he has to depend on begging for money from people,” David Clay Johnson told CNN on Tuesday. “If you have $10 billion, this wouldn’t be a big deal,” said Johnston. “But if you don’t have $10 billion and you just claim it, that’s a whole other story.”

A day before he's set to surrender and serve a four-month sentence in federal prison, former President Donald Trump's adviser Peter Navarro described himself as a MAGA martyr in an interview with Don TrumpJr. HA!
