Marjorie Taylor Greene joins Tucker Carlson in ditching the GOP

Former Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) announced Monday evening that she's ditching the Republican Party, following conservative commentator Tucker Carlson out the door.Why it matters: The former Trump loyalist is part of a growing group of conservatives who believe the president's foreign policy has gone astray. What they're saying: Tucker is not the only one who is done supporting the Republican Party, Taylor Greene wrote in a post on X Monday.There is A LOT of us that are absolutely fed up and will not support a party that betrays its voters and country. That does not mean we are turning into Democrats either.But we are DONE with the America LAST Republican Party, she said. Catch up quick: Carlson said during a podcast interview that gained traction on Monday that he's out of the GOP after vocally defending it for 35 years.And if I'm out, then I think a lot of other people are out, he said, adding that Trump's foreign policy in the Middle East doesn't serve America's interests. Greene, who resigned from Congress in November, told Axios last year that she wouldn't become an independent, despite being frustrated with both Democrats and the GOP.

Setting A Thermostat Is Not Communism, Fox News

Fox News and the entire GOP is so terrified of Mayor Zohran Mamdani's success that they are mocking him for asking New Yorkers to be careful with their thermostats during an extreme heat wave. This is the same advice Trump's Energy Department has suggested as well. Not only do they look foolish, but they appear desperate in their efforts to smear and ridicule a popular political rival. This morning on Fox and Friends, the three co-hosts were beside themselves that the mayor of New York City would ask residents to turn the thermostat higher to conserve energy so that there aren't any blackouts during this massive heat wave. And somehow, like morons trying to pick up a bowling ball with tweezers, they related it to communism. (NARRATOR: They've got no clue what it is. Just a scare word to them) After bragging about Trump giving a speech in 107 degree weather, they transitioned into this. KILMEADE: Mamdani weighed in on the heat record.... EARHARDT: Oh, my Gosh! JONES: Unbelievable. EARHARDT: We've had blackouts here in New York and I've lived through one of those where the power goes out because the grid can't handle it all. read more

Will his fundraising text messages stop?I’m Done, I’m Not in That F*cking Political Party’: James Carville Freaks Out After Progressives Win Big in Democratic PrimariesClarifying what the big tent has always meant:“Lady, I ain’t in the same party as you,” Carville said. “I’m sorry. I’m just not. And I actually do think it’s time for Democrats to talk the ‘s’ word: schism. I really do. Everybody’s always said, ‘No, no. We’re a coalition. We’re a big tent. And there’s just some sh*t I can’t be in the same tent with.”Carville then insisted that despite winning their Democratic primaries, “these people are not Democrats.” He then suggested that establishment Democrats “negotiate the terms of a schism” with democratic socialists in the party.
