The queen of losing has done it again. She might keep going, though. But she has a long way to go before she breaks the king’s (Donald Trump) record.
Election denier Kari Lake, who lost to Democrat Katie Hobbs in the gubernatorial race in 2022, just lost her last legal challenge. Lake has repeatedly alleged that she won the election with no credible evidence to back up her wild-eyed claim. She is a heavily filtered version of Donald Trump in a skirt.
The GOP plays politics with everything. They seem to want to tear everything down rather governing. It’s all hate and extremism all the time. And it could lead to miscalculation that would cause a default on the debt, leading to catastrophic results for the economy:

As Chuck Todd discussed the debt ceiling with Byron Donalds, he addressed Trump’s claim that if Republicans don’t get what they want, they “have to do a default,” and “It could be really bad, it could be maybe nothing. Maybe it’s a bad week or a bad day?”
Biden is literally embracing the Neo-Fascist Prime Minister of Italy, Giorgia Meloni:
Hey Democrats, I thought you hated fascists.
Why is your elected leader holding hands with and hugging A LITERAL FASCIST?! pic.twitter.com/19puPpeeFD

This is not an ordinary government in Western Europe. It is literally a descendant of the Fascism of Benito Mussolini:
The 45-year-old Meloni, whose nationalist Brothers of Italy party has neo-fascist roots, led a right-wing coalition to victory in Italy’s national elections on September 26.
Meloni uses language that is standard for most right-wingers, including in the U.S. It is hate speech:
Meloni, who began her political career as the vice president of a now-outlawed neo-fascist political party, campaigned to become Italy’s first female prime minister on a populist and traditionalist platform of “God, country, family”—a slogan with deep fascist connotations in Italy—with a particular hostility to immigrants and LGBTQ people. Last month, Meloni tweeted a video of a Ukrainian woman being sexually assaulted by a male asylum-seeker, a video she said was intended to emphasize her pledge to “secure the cities” but which ended up identifying the rape victim.
New York Attorney General Letitia James is demanding that Ivanka Trump provide more information related to her involvement in the Trump Organization’s tax fraud lawsuit , which James is suing Donald Trump and his three eldest children (including sons Donald Jr. and Eric) for $250 million over.
A judge has given Ivanka a deadline to cooperate or face legal consequences. With her father being accused of either inflating or undervaluing assets for financial gain, Ivanka is now in the spotlight and being scrutinized for her role in the fraud scandal .
CNN anchor Erin Burnett suggested a deluge of legal troubles for Trump could come to a head in August, to include the election crimes and classified documents probes, obstruction, and “maybe espionage” charges.
A new letter from election crimes prosecutor Fani Willis signals indictments of ex-President Donald Trump in Fulton County’s grand jury investigation of Trump’s effort to overturn election results in Georgia are likely coming in August.
Nothing new here. The FBI has been spying on black activists from the very beginning. And it isn’t because of any financial improprieties. It’s about viewing black people fighting for their rights as a threat:
The FBI used a controversial foreign surveillance authority in 2020 to investigate whether protesters involved in the Black Lives Matter movement had ties to terrorists, according to two reports declassified Friday.
…According to a newly declassified memorandum order from the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court released by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, issued more than a year ago, the FBI ran a “batch query” related to 133 individuals “arrested in connection with civil unrest and protests” between May 30 and June 18 of 2020.
The analysts ran these names through information gathered using authorities from Section 702, which allows the intelligence community to surveil electronic communications by foreign individuals located outside the United States for national security purposes. But the data collected also includes information about Americans on the other end of emails or other communications.
Ron DeSantis says Florida is where “woke” goes to die. But does he actually mean history, the First Amendment or maybe jobs? After all, his war against Disney — a major employer in his state — threatens to kill off billions in investments and thousands of jobs.
HORRENDOUS: CNN and host Kaitlan Collins were just HUMILIATED by a twice-impeached, indicted former President who was just found liable for sexual assault because they made the head scatching decision to pack an audience with 400 Trump-friendly Republicans and GOP-leaning… pic.twitter.com/ndaEPskIen

It was unforgiveable:
Trump Reveals CNN Made Him An Offer He 'Couldn't Refuse'
CNN agreed to pack the crowd with 400 right-wing, MAGA hardliner shills for him. 🤮 https://t.co/zz5MCLWM8c
Another day another mass shooting. This time it was a person who was firing a gun in his backyard. The neighbors complained and 5, including a child, were murdered. People are shooting people for no particular reason. Too many individuals are powder kegs who have a gun are willing to use them.
A Texas man who was firing an AR-15 style rifle in his front yard killed five people in a neighboring home after they asked him to stop shooting because a baby was sleeping. Police said all were shot execution-style; the youngest victim was 8-years-old. https://t.co/eAHqXoIEIk
Fox chairman Rupert Murdoch personally ordered Tucker Carlson’s firing over a discrimination lawsuit filed by a former producer on his show, the Los Angeles Times reports.
