Former Virginia Delegate Matt Fariss pleaded guilty to felony meth possession and illegal firearm possession, receiving a three-year sentence with all but 20 days suspended—time he’d already served. His guilty plea follows a March traffic stop where authorities discovered methamphetamine and a rifle in his vehicle. This conviction, resulting from a March 23rd arrest, permanently bars him from holding statewide office and possessing firearms. This concludes a tumultuous period following his acquittal on more serious charges earlier this year.

John Q. Hosedrinker Jordan Opposes Public Release of Gaetz Ethics Report, Raising Concerns
Jim Jordan, a Republican Congressman who is known for his vocal support of former President Donald Trump, has said that the findings of an ethics investigation into Rep. Matt Gaetz “shouldn’t go public.” This statement has sparked outrage among many, who see it as a clear attempt to cover up potential wrongdoing by Gaetz, who faces serious allegations of sexual misconduct and sex trafficking.
Jordan’s argument appears to hinge on the idea that releasing the findings would be unfair to Gaetz, who has not been charged with any crimes. However, many point out that the ethics investigation was conducted using taxpayer dollars and that the public has a right to know the results.… Continue reading
Matt Underwood Trump Creates Fake Government Department Headed by Elon Musk
President-elect Donald Trump has announced the creation of a new “Department of Government Efficiency,” to be led by billionaire Elon Musk and entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy. The office will focus on eliminating waste and fraud in government spending, with Musk and Ramaswamy acting as advisors to the White House and the Office of Budget & Management. While Congress holds the power to create federal agencies, the President-elect could also appoint the duo under the Federal Advisory Committees Act, allowing them to remain advisors outside of the traditional federal employee structure. This new department, with its focus on transparency and efficiency, is intended to be a major initiative aimed at reforming government spending and operations.
Trump’s Cabinet Picks: Same Old Ethics, Worse Than Before
Donald Trump’s first term was marred by a staggering number of ethical scandals, including several Cabinet officials being referred to the Department of Justice for potential criminal investigations. Despite this unprecedented level of corruption, the DOJ chose not to pursue charges against any of them. Trump has now chosen to bring back several of these figures, including Robert Wilkie, the former Veterans Affairs secretary who was accused of discrediting a female veteran who said she had been sexually assaulted at a VA facility. Trump’s decision to rehire these figures, alongside others like Stephen Miller and Tom Homan, who were architects of the family separation policy at the border, indicates that his second term will likely be just as extreme and chaotic as his first.

Elon Musk’s Fake Sites and Fake Texts Impersonating the Harris Campaign
Elon Musk’s recent antics in impersonating the Harris campaign through fake websites and misleading texts have crossed an alarming threshold.

Revealed: Trump ground game in key states flagged as potentially fake
The recent revelations about the potentially fake ground game employed by the Trump campaign in key states have shed light on the inner workings of a campaign that is desperate to win at any cost. With a quarter of door-knocks flagged as potentially fraudulent, it is becoming increasingly clear that the Trump campaign may not be as effective as they claim to be.
Outsourcing the bulk of the ground game to America Pac, a political action committee founded by Elon Musk, has only exacerbated the issue. The paid canvassers employed by this PAC may not have the same level of investment in the campaign’s success as dedicated volunteers or campaign staff.… Continue reading
