Trump Gives STUNNING Response to Marjorie Taylor Greene's Surprise Resignation
What's covered: After Marjorie Taylor Greene announced her resignation from Congress effective January 5th, 2026, citing Trump's threats and his defense of the Epstein files, Trump called it "great news for the country." Greene, once Trump's most loyal supporter, says she refuses to be a "battered wife" and condemns being attacked by the president she fought for after she stood up for women trafficked by "rich powerful men."
The woman who defended Trump through literally everything—including January 6th—finally found her red line: defending child sex trafficking. And Trump's response? Good riddance. If this doesn't show you that Trump only cares about Trump, I don't know what will. Also, "only between me and her, not her and me" is the most coherent thing he's said all week.
I Lived the Nightmare Trump Plays With (w/ Sen. Mark Kelly)
What's covered: Senator Mark Kelly describes receiving death threats from Trump after releasing a video reminding military personnel they must refuse illegal orders. Kelly, whose wife Gabby Giffords survived an assassination attempt, discusses how Trump's rhetoric escalates political violence and creates danger for all Americans. He calls Trump's behavior "un-American" and vows not to be intimidated.
Trump responded to a completely lawful video about the Constitution by threatening to execute sitting senators. This is the actual definition of sedition, but sure, let's all pretend the real threat is people reminding troops they can't shoot protesters. The projection is Olympic-level.
Middle Class COLLAPSING Under Trump
What's covered: Middle-income American families (making $66K-$200K annually) are facing a crushing affordability crisis, with rising costs for coffee, beef, car repairs, and daily necessities. Despite Trump's promises of deflation and lower prices, costs continue to climb, forcing families to sit in the dark with LED lights, skip dental care, and cut back on essentials. Trump's tariffs are driving more price hikes while the White House insists "everything is awesome."
Trump promised cheaper eggs and delivered more expensive everything. Now middle-class families are literally sitting in the dark to save money while he golfs and tells everyone the economy is "tremendous." Turns out tweeting "PRICES DOWN!" doesn't actually lower grocery bills. Who knew?
Zelenskyy Faces Pressure from Trump to Accept His Ukraine Peace Plan
What's covered: Trump gave Ukraine a Thursday deadline to accept his 28-point "peace plan" that requires massive Ukrainian concessions including giving up the Donbass, limiting military size, and NATO membership denial—while Russia keeps all occupied territory. The U.S. is threatening to cut weapons sales and intelligence sharing if Ukraine refuses. Expert Richard Haass calls it "rewarding aggression" and compares it to forcing Israel to accept a Palestinian state in one week.
Trump's "peace plan" is basically Putin's Christmas list with a deadline. Ukraine fights off Russia for years, and Trump's solution is "give them everything they want by Thursday or we're done." This is what happens when the Art of the Deal meets geopolitics—turns out you can't just threaten to walk away from a war crime.
Trump and Mamdani Meet in Oval Office After Months of Trading Insults
What's covered: In a stunning reversal, Trump met with NYC mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani (whom he previously called a "communist") in a cordial Oval Office meeting focused on affordability and housing. When asked about Mamdani calling him a "fascist," Trump interjected "it's okay, you can just say yes" and defended the new mayor. Both emphasized working together on lowering rent and energy costs for New Yorkers.
Nothing says "strong convictions" like going from "he's a communist fascist" to "let's be best friends" in the span of an election cycle. Trump backed down from his threats faster than you can say "rent control." Turns out populist economic messaging works even on wannabe authoritarians—who knew you could out-Trump Trump on affordability?
Mark Hertling: Ukraine Peace Plan Rewards Moscow for Aggression
What's covered: Retired Lt. General Mark Hertling tells Bill Kristol that Trump's 28-point Ukraine peace plan "smacks of rewarding Russia for aggression, criminal activities, and terrorism." He criticizes the administration for putting all pressure on Ukraine to accept terms that ignore Ukrainian sovereignty and U.S. values, questioning why America is rewarding the invader rather than the victim.
A decorated general with actual combat experience pointing out that rewarding war crimes is bad strategy? Groundbreaking stuff. But hey, Trump knows better than the generals—he said so himself.
Zohran Mamdani Still Wants to Arrest Benjamin Netanyahu
What's covered: NYC mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani doubles down on his commitment to arrest Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu if he visits New York, citing ICC arrest warrants and international law. Critics point out the U.S. doesn't comply with the ICC and NYC cannot legally enforce such warrants, making Mamdani's position more symbolic than actionable.
Props for consistency, but buddy, you're the mayor of an American city, not the head of Interpol. This is the political equivalent of declaring your studio apartment a nuclear-free zone—technically you can say it, but it doesn't actually mean anything.
