At today's House Judiciary Committee hearing, Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) praised former President Donald J. Trump for allowing Black and Jewish Americans to join his private clubs when that was not the norm.

Matt Gaetz in his house floor speech said:

Mr. Chairman, let me begin by saying that it used to be the case on Palm Beach Island that no blacks or Jews were even allowed to be members or invited as members at the private clubs, and it was actually Donald Trump before he was in politics who made that, I believe, very important change so that we weren't treating people differently based on their immutable traits.

I also want to say something on the subject of this hearing when it comes to Supreme Court ethics and guardrails. I am supportive of bipartisan efforts to have some sort of ethics construct on the court. I don't understand why Congress is subject to ethics rules and the executive is subject to ethics rules, but what about the fact that we could put a black robe on somebody and give them a lifetime appointment all of a sudden when they fail to enact their own ethics rules?

We just let it happen, and to my right-wing friends, it's as if you can buy off Supreme Court justices. The left is definitely going to end up being way better than we are. So I would suggest that in the next Congress when this is more than just a theatrical exercise, we actually work together on opportunities to have strong ethics requirements that enhance the public perception of the Court ideal.

Marjorie Taylor Greene Speaks Out About Calling Biden A 'Liar' During The State Of The Union

Photo credit: Gage Skidmore/CC BY-SA 2.0, via Flickr In a video released to social media, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) slammed President Biden's State of the Union address and defended calling him a "liar." Last night, President Joe Biden delivered his State of the Union address to the nation. While many tuned in to hear the President's plans for the future, some were left frustrated by his speaking style. According to some reports, Biden was difficult to understand at times due to his tendency to yell and mumble through applause. One major topic discussed by the President was the ongoing issue of fentanyl deaths, which have become the number one cause of death for young people between the ages of 18 and 45. However, President Biden faced criticism for not having the plan to secure the border and for wanting the border open. In addition to the border crisis, President Biden also talked about the fast food industry and the non-compete fees faced by compan...

Sen. Ted Cruz: 'The White House's Talking Points Are Written By An 18 Year Old Intern'

Photo credit: Gage Skidmore/CC BY-SA 2.0, via Flickr At a news briefing on Wednesday, Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) spoke about a potential new Iran deal. Cruz said 'The White House's Talking Points Are Written By An 18-Year-Old Intern'. Addressing the media with GOP leaders, Cruz said: President Biden and the white house's talking points on energy are both inane and contradictory. The Biden white house maintains that decreasing supply does not impact price if you look at How Joe Biden started his presidency? He started it with a war on u.s oil and gas. You know President Biden tried to say this week the increase in gas prices is due to Putin. I understand the Russians are the favorite talking point for democrats. We spent four years under Donald Trump hearing, democrats say Russia Russia Russia. And now the Biden White House wants to say all of the disasters of inflation that's Russia's fault too. The one problem is the facts on day one asPpresident Joe Biden can...

President Trump explains more about his new social media site "Truth Social" | Latest Statement on TMTG

Photo "Donald Trump" by Dan Scavino Latest Statement on TMTG by the 45th President Donald J. Trump Last week, I announced the creation of a major new company that will challenge the dominance of the Big Tech giants and Big Media bosses. Today I want to explain more about what I am doing and why. For me, this endeavor is about much more than politics. This is about saving our country. America has always been a nation of smart, spirited, and independent people who take pride in thinking for themselves. We admire those who aren’t afraid to speak their minds, or go against the tide. Yet suddenly, we find ourselves being censored and dictated to by a small group of self-righteous scolds and self-appointed arbiters of what everyone else is allowed to think, say, share, and do. Nowhere is this censorship more dangerous and brazen than on social media, the public square of our times. We have seen renowned medical doctors being banned from platforms for contradicting “health author...

But you know what, coming in, I noticed some of the factories, the old buildings, and I said, you know, 50 years ago, that was something that was incredible. Now you look at them and they're not looking too good. They're not looking too good. But we brought it back and we brought it back strong, and now they're letting it go back to China and these oth...
