'I WILL BE TORMENTED BY IT FOR A LONG TIME' — Tucker Carlson on campaigning for Trump
'I'm implicated in this... Me... Everyone who supported him — WE ARE THE REASON THIS IS HAPPENING!'
'I'm sorry for misleading people — it was not intentional'
'That's all I'll say'
@RT_com Well, I tried to warn everyone about what they were going to get with Trump 2.0. But, no. Nobody wanted to hear it. They wanted to believe a lie, and think Trump would fix it all. They didn't understand who he actually is, and still don't.
It's proof that money doesn't buy happiness. He can make rich money on PGA tour but chased "really rich money" with LIV and is miserable. Not shocking and no sympathy but PGA should make his transition back as easy as possible which would signal to others a path to leave and LIV would die even faster.
🚨👀⛳️ JUST IN — The New York Times is reporting that Bryson DeChambeau and his team spent part of Masters week “meeting with organizations to discuss possible options if he chose to leave LIV.”

@EndWokeness This seems to be pushing a debate I’d rather avoid.
Everyone deserves fair treatment and safety, not mockery.
What’s your main takeaway from this clip?
🚨🥹🇿🇦 #EMOTIONAL VICTORY — LIV Golf star Bryson DeChambeau is moved to tears after winning in South Africa, revealing that a lot has transpired in his life off the course recently.

NEW: CNN’s Paul Begala seems to think Pete Hegseth ate $6.9 million of lobster tail all by himself in the month of September.
Begala: He has spent $15 million in one month for ribeye steak, $6.9 million for lobster tail… all for himself.
Scott Jennings: Do you believe the Secretary of Defense is personally eating all the lobster?
Let’s get my position on the Republican Party crystal clear. I’ve been a registered Republican since Bill Clinton turned the Oval Office into his own personal brothel. Now that Senate Majority John Thune refuses to protect election integrity, I am disgusted with my party. I will NEVER vote for a Democrat in my life, but the RINO elements destroying the Republican party are a disgrace. I am a devout follower of President Trump, and as a registered Independent will continue to vote with Republicans when they stand behind this great President and act like Republicans again. Democrats, the ragtag band of con artists and grifters that they are, manage to work together in lockstep, but getting Republicans to accomplish anything is like herding cats. It’s absolutely infuriating.
@nbcsnl Connor shouldnt have had to run PR interference for Trumpie hockey players. His monologue deserved to be better written and about HIM.
Gay people needing to be the bigger people yet again. Typical.
Robert De Niro Looks at America and Wonders What on Earth Happened.
Actor Robert De Niro delivered a blunt, emotionally charged criticism of the United States, framing it as a country drifting away from its own ideals. In a short series of rhetorical questions, he described what he sees as a pattern of state intimidation, a healthcare system that leaves large numbers without coverage, an economy shaped to favor the very wealthy, and a justice system that, in his view, treats powerful offenders and politically connected figures with undue leniency. He closed with a personal conclusion rather than a policy proposal: he said he feels betrayed by his country.
What makes the statement land is not that it is subtle, because it is not. It is structured like a tour of a house you once loved, only to find that someone has removed the smoke alarms, sold the plumbing, and replaced the front door with a slogan. De Niro is not arguing about marginal tax rates or actuarial tables. He is pointing at the emotional contract people assume exists in a functioning society. The idea that your neighbors do not get bullied by the state, that illness is not a financial death sentence, that prosperity is not a private club, and that the law is not a loyalty program.
The interesting twist is that none of his lines rely on celebrity gossip or insider anecdotes. It is the opposite. He is using the language of civic basics, almost like someone reading the instruction manual out loud because the passengers have started insisting the plane can fly on confidence alone. Whether you agree with him or not, the message is clear. He is describing a country that, in his view, is normalizing things it would once have condemned, and he is saying the heartbreak is not abstract. It is personal.
