White House mocked over 'complete failure' to sell Trump's 'sham marriage' on social media

As experts and internet sleuths worked to dissect and decipher the explosive emails released last week by the U.S. House Oversight Committee from estate of deceased sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein referencing President Donald Trump, the White House, reports The Poke, was working hard to change the narrative.

"Although the claims in the emails remain unsubstantiated, and Donald Trump maintains he had no knowledge of or involvement in Epstein’s sex-trafficking or abuse, his messages paint the president in a very bad light," they write.

'Haunt them': Brett Kavanaugh's words hurled in face as Morning Joe trounces Supreme Court

Reacting to increasing reports of Americans being dragged out of cars and arrested by out-of-control ICE agents only to be released later, MS NOW’s Joe Scarborough singled out Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh for giving them legal cover.

The heavy-handed push by President Donald Trump and his MAGA allies backfired with Indiana Republicans – but it hasn't forced him to back down, according to a report.

The president called on GOP legislators to redraw congressional maps in states all over the country, but Indiana Republicans — even in deep-red Trump districts — made clear to their elected representatives that they didn't want to go along with the scheme, and voters and legislators alike resented "all these social media influencers barking" at them, a local talk radio host told CNN.

Trump confronts 'game-changer' as cruelty provokes 'unbelievably radical' revolt: analysts

Comments made by Pope Leo and a widely spread attack on President Donald Trump by Catholic bishops on his harsh immigration policies should give his administration pause that the ground beneath them is shifting — and not in a good way, it was warned Monday.

The hosts of “Morning Joe,” noted the Pope calling the treatment of undocumented immigrants a “grave injustice” and combined that with a statement from America’s Roman Catholic bishops asserting, “We are disturbed when we see among our people a climate of fear and anxiety around questions of profiling and immigration enforcement. We are saddened by the state of contemporary debate and the vilification of immigrants. We are concerned about the conditions in detention centers and the lack of access to pastoral care.”

GOP commits 'two self-owns' after reversing push to 'give themselves more money': reporter

Republican lawmakers are pushing back on a GOP-sponsored provision that would allow for GOP lawmakers to sue the Justice Department for $500,000 over its probe in the Jan. 6 Capitol riot, a reversal that one journalist dubbed a series of “self-owns.”

Lindsey Graham (R-SC) has said he intends to take advantage of the provision and sue the DOJ for damages, other GOP lawmakers have criticized it, including House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA), who said he was unaware of its inclusion.
