In the weeks after the November election, Donald Trump’s “Save America” PAC disbursed another $4.3 million to lawyers representing him in various legal battles, totaling $90.8 million in legal fees. This followed the renaming and restructuring of his 2024 campaign account into “Never Surrender,” a leadership PAC allowing flexible spending. A new fundraising split directs 80% of donations to the RNC, leaving only 20% for Never Surrender, a shift from the initial 80/20 split favoring Trump’s committee. The rationale for this change remains unclear, although speculation suggests potential RNC payment of Trump’s legal bills.

Over the years, the Trump family has been a constant source of controversy and media attention. From Donald Trump’s time in office to his various business ventures, the Trump name has been a polarizing topic for many. However, the recent news about Barron Trump, the youngest son of the former president, declining to be an RNC delegate sheds light on a different aspect of the family dynamics.
It is not uncommon for political families to have multiple members involved in the political process. From the Kennedys to the Bushes, it is almost expected for family members to follow in their patriarch’s footsteps.… Continue reading
I have come to the realization that the Republican Party, once synonymous with law and order, has devolved into a chaotic mess under the grip of Donald Trump. The recent resignation of Charlie Spies, a top lawyer for the Republican National Committee (RNC), only solidifies this belief. The rift between Spies and Trump has grown to such a degree that stepping down seemed like the only viable option for him.
It is disheartening to see individuals who work closely with Trump, such as lawyers and accountants, leaving their positions in a hurry. This pattern of departures raises red flags about the integrity of the organization and hints at possible internal turmoil.… Continue reading
It’s truly astounding how the truth can accidentally slip out of the mouths of Republicans, especially when they are so accustomed to spinning lies and misinformation. The recent flub by the new RNC chair, Michael Watley, where he fumbled through a statement about America being better off now than under Trump, is a perfect example of this. It’s almost comical how he tried to backtrack and stumble over his own words, but the accidental truth had already been spoken.
Let’s face it, the Trump administration was a disaster for America. From his mishandling of the COVID-19 pandemic to his divisive rhetoric and inability to lead effectively, it’s no surprise that the country is in a better place under President Biden.… Continue reading
The recent purge at the RNC, spearheaded by new leadership loyal to Trump, has been described as an ‘absolute bloodbath’. The implications of this drastic move are significant, with many suggesting that the Republican Party is on a path to destruction. As resources are funneled towards Trump’s legal fees, there is growing concern that local races will suffer, deprived of critical funding for ads and campaigns. The power shift within the RNC reflects a dangerous trend towards autocratic leadership, reminiscent of dictatorial regimes like Saddam Hussein. With Trump at the helm, the party’s finances are being drained, leaving little support for down-ballot candidates who rely on party resources.… Continue reading
I am utterly astounded by the recent announcement of RNC Chair Ronna McDaniel’s resignation following criticism from former President Donald Trump. It is alarming to witness how the GOP has transformed into an exclusively MAGA-oriented entity, where loyalty to Trump seems to be the ultimate litmus test for survival within the party. The fact that McDaniel changed her last name in an attempt to appease Trump, only to still be dismissed, is a stark reminder of the spinelessness and feigned allegiance that seem to pervade the GOP.
As I reflect on the situation at hand, I cannot help but wonder about the depths of corruption and audacity that appear to be at play.… Continue reading
It’s official – Judge formally says Trump owes $454 million in a civil fraud case, and the countdown clock has started ticking for him to put up the money for an appeal. The question on everyone’s mind now – can he bankrupt himself and the RNC? I have heard that it has never been done before, and if it happens, it’s going to be huge news.
The irony of the situation is not lost on me – Trump, who still hasn’t paid El Paso for his political rally, now has to come up with a staggering amount of money in a relatively short period of time.… Continue reading
Trump’s RNC Takeover Is on the Brink of Becoming a ‘Purge’
The current situation within the Republican National Committee (RNC) is truly a sight to behold. Steve Bannon’s prediction of an imminent purge of staffers is a chilling reminder of the power dynamics at play within the party. The message is clear: Anti-Trump sentiment will not be tolerated, and skeptics within the RNC have been put on notice. It’s not just the staffers who are at risk; the entire committee, including 168 committee members and consultants, are facing the prospect of being replaced by individuals deemed more loyal to Trump.
The looming appointment of Lara Trump as RNC co-chair has sparked further controversy, with concerns raised about nepotism and her lack of experience for the role.… Continue reading
Haley’s warning about Trump potentially using the RNC as his personal piggy bank if reelected is not far-fetched or surprising in the slightest. In fact, it seems to be a foregone conclusion given the actions and statements of Trump and his inner circle. The idea that he “could” do this is not a possibility but a certainty, considering his track record of using any means necessary to further his own interests, even at the expense of the party he claims to represent.
The notion that Trump will drain the RNC funds for his own personal gain, as he has already been doing, is not only concerning but a stark reminder of the lack of accountability and ethical standards within the Republican Party.… Continue reading
The GOP fears that besieged Trump will now drain the RNC fund to pay his own legal bills. And honestly, can we really blame them? Trump has not exactly been known for his financial responsibility or ethics. The party is right to be concerned about Trump using their funds for his personal legal battles, especially considering the lackluster down-ballot results they have been experiencing.
It’s no secret that Trump has been bleeding the RNC coffers dry as much as they will allow him to. With his exorbitant legal fees and the hefty sums needed for his civil cases, it’s clear that the party is at risk of being financially gutted by their own golden goose.… Continue reading
