Trump Confronted, Says "Nobody's Gotten to the Bottom of 9/11"
Donald Trump was confronted about the Saudi-backed LIV golf tournament which started up recently with an event hosted at the former president’s Bedminster Golf Club in New Jersey. Trump was asked by a reporter about whether it makes since to have close ties to the Saudi regime given that he’s a New Yorker and most of the 9/11 hijackers came from Saudi Arabia. The former president said, “nobody’s gotten to the bottom of 9/11 unfortunately and they should have.” It’s unclear whether Trump was calling September 11th an inside job with this statement or that if Al-Qaeda wasn’t really at fault. Perhaps he was placating to his conspiratorial supporter base or maybe he just wanted to deflect blame away from the Saudis who have a long record of paying him and his businesses well.
HOLY $&!T: Marjorie Taylor Greene as Trump's 2024 Running Mate?
Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene is being talked about as Donald Trump’s possible 2024 running mate in a sign that the crazies truly are taking over. Greene was on Real America’s Voice and was asked whether she would accept a role as Trump’s VP contender. She responded, “I think if he asked me I would definitely give that some strong consideration. I love President Trump. I never hide that fact. I think he’s wonderful. I have a great relationship with him.” While it’s way too early to be talking about vice presidential picks, this can’t be laughed off as an impossibility. Clearly Trump won’t be picking Mike Pence again if he wins the 2024 Republican nomination. While Greene probably isn’t the likeliest choice for Trump, it’s certainly within the realm of possibility that she could get the nod.

Marge Greene Complains Republicans Won't Vote, Encourages Them Not to Vote
Republicans are starting to worry about the 2022 midterms, as polling in favor of the Democratic candidates has surged over the past few months. This means people like Marjorie Taylor Greene are making their rounds warning about insufficient right-wing voter turnout. MTG said on Graham Allen’s “Dear America” podcast, “I don’t think it’s going to be a big red wave but maybe it will be. But I’ll tell you the biggest problem I’m concerned about is, I’m concerned about the people that are still angry and don’t want to vote. And we need them to vote because I’m one of the first people who will tell you I don’t believe the election results of 2020.” It’s this very type of talk that’s preventing Republican voters from going to the polls in the first place. But Greene’s loyalty to Trump causes her to shoot herself in the foot with this hugely damaging caveat.

OAN Host Desperately Begs Liberals to Save Her Channel
OAN host Alison Steinberg made a plea to the general public, including centrists and liberals, to save her dying channel in the wake of another major cable provider cutting ties with the conspiratorial right-wing network. Verizon Fios’s contract with OAN has expired and it will not be renewed, meaning they will only be airing on tiny cable providers since DirecTV also cut ties with the network back in April. Steinberg made one final desperate attempt to the public to save the channel, saying, “it is absolutely crucial that for once we defy the powers that be, that we all come together, set aside our differences in a unified effort so that we can recognize the horrifying danger that lies ahead. If you’re watching this and you’re laughing and scoffing, because you think that you’re immune to what’s coming, you just wait. Enjoy your freedoms while you still got them.” For as much as Alison wants to make this a free speech issue, this is the free market that conservatives claim to be completely in favor of. If cable providers like Verizon and DirecTV find it damaging to their brands to host OAN, they have every right to cut ties.
