A ProPublica investigation has found that most of these bills are part of a coordinated effort, orchestrated by a constellation of groups that share staff or have funding ties to the prominent conservative activist Leonard Leo.
Chris Christie stated, 'I think anybody who follows politics right now can tell there are no principles left in my party.' He criticized Trump's influence, saying, 'He wakes up every morning and tries to figure out what is the best thing for him to do in his self-interest that day, and that day only.'
The Article I Section 4 was drafted by the Framers specifically to grant primary authority to regulate elections to the states, to the state legislatures. It also gave the authority to Congress to act directly, but one entity it didn't give any authority whatsoever to was the President of the United States.

Assuming Trump does not illegally seek a third term, all early polling - as well as history and conventional wisdom - suggests it will be Vance accepting the nomination two and a half years from now.
I predict that Representative Thomas Massie will go down as the WORST Republican Congressman in the long and fabled history of the United States Congress, even worse than Crazy Liz Chaney, Cryin' Adam Kinzinger, and Marjorie Traitor Brown (Remember, Green turns to Brown under stress!).

Nine young men who voted for President Donald Trump in 2024 said they do not support Vice President J.D. Vance as the Republican nominee in 2028, according to a Politico report published Friday, with one voter expressing that he thinks it's time for someone new. The 18- to 24-year-olds took part in a Monday focus group run by communications firm Longwell Partners and shared with Politico, with all but one saying they would rather see another nominee and the lone holdout remaining unconvinced.
