The House Ethics Committee is meeting today to discuss what to do with the report on Matt Gaetz, but the damage might already be done at this point. The lawyer for one of the women who testified to the committee has been releasing all sorts of information that shows what giant scumbag Gaetz really is, including information that was not previously made public. The only question is whether this new material moves the needle in the Senate.Both before and after the election this year, the Trump campaign had to get onto their allies that were in the media talking about his deportation plans to tell them to STOP saying that they were going to put people in "camps." The campaign was worried that these allies were starting to sound a little too much like Adolph Hitler, and that's not the image they wanted to portray to the public. Things have to be really bad if you have to be reminded to not sound like Hitler.Donald Trump, Jr. appeared on Charlie Kirk's podcast this week to issue an ominous warning to those who "sold out" his father following the Capitol Riot: You're all in big, BIG trouble. The oldest Trump son is warning that anyone who turned against his dad because of January 6th is not going to be treated kindly by this incoming administration, and they could even become targets of investigations and hearings.Donald Trump's transition plans have very quickly fallen apart as his nominees have come under intense scrutiny with all of their horrible pasts coming into the spotlight. Trump thought it would be a piece of cake to get the worst people in the country appointed to positions of power, but he's facing a tremendous amount of backlash from both the public and his own Party. This is not what he expected and he's furious about itText and and let us know your thoughts on today's stories!
Jim Jordan has been piggy-backing off of Matt Gaetz for years, and now that Gaetz is no longer in the House, Jordan is still trying to protect his buddy. Jordan has been on a media blitz begging for the House Ethics report into Matt Gaetz to remain secret so that Gaetz still has a shot at becoming the Attorney General. Donald Trump is waiting until he gets back into office to seek retribution, as he's already going after media outlets that hurt his feelings over the past few years. Trump's lawyers have filed off several "demand letters" to media outlets claiming that they have to pay him $10 BILLION for their alleged "false" coverage of him during the campaign. This might be one of the most insane things Trump has ever tried to do.Donald Trump is attempting to bypass the standard FBI background check process for his cabinet picks, and is instead trying to use a private contractor to perform the "checks" for them. This is what will be turned over to the Senate when these people come before them for their confirmations, and there's a very obvious reason why Trump has decided to go this route. Farron Cousins explains what's happening.Donald Trump's cabinet picks are getting worse by the day, but there's a chance that he's picks are so bad that they can't cause any real, lasting damage to this country. That's not to say that they won't try and that they won't have success, but by packing his cabinet with extremists who have no regard for the rule of law, he could end up running right into the buzzsaw and instantly regret it. And that's assuming these people even pass their confirmation hearings. Farron Cousins explains what could happen.Subscribe to our YouTube channel to stay up to date on all of Farron’s content: https://www.youtube.com/FarronBalancedFollow Farron on social media!Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FarronBalancedTwitter: https://twitter.com/farronbalancedInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/farronbalancedTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@farronbalanced?lang=enText and and let us know your thoughts on today's stories!
A reporter for Puck News that has been dubbed the "MAGA Whisperer" for her ability to get scoops from Trump insiders says that multiple sources close to Trump have told her that he isn't going to be using Project 2025's blueprint when he takes office. The bad news is that he's going to use something much worse created by a think tank associated with him, the America First Policy Institute. There aren't many differences between the two blueprints, but there are enough to make it more dangerous.Right wing lawyer Mike Davis has been floated as a possible pick for Attorney General in the forthcoming Trump administration, and judging by his reaction to Trump's victory, that could mean open season on Democrats. David posted on social media that he wants to see "dead political bodies" being dragged "through the streets" now that Trump has won, though he clarified that he just means "legally, politically, and financially." This type of violent rhetoric can get people killed.Trump ally Steve Bannon is more excited than anyone about Donald Trump winning the election, and he is letting his glee show by outlining which government departments Trump is going to get rid of once he gets in office. Bannon said that the Justice Department is going to be cleaned out and the FBI is going away, which, obviously, would be a huge boon to criminals all over the country (like Bannon himself.)An irate Marjorie Taylor Greene is not happy about the people that Donald Trump is going to be putting in her cabinet, and she insisted during an interview this week that SHE deserves a position more than anyone else. She even went as far as to call out his new allies because they (RFK, Jr. and Vivek Ramaswamy) actually ran AGAINST him this past year, so they can't be trusted. Trouble is brewing, and it's going to be hilarious to watch.

New audio from author and journalist Michael Wolff has revealed that Donald Trump and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein were way closer friends - and friends for much longer - than previously known. Trump apparently consulted with Epstein while he was president, and Epstein even produced multiple photographs of Trump partying with topless women, including some with them sitting on his lap.During an interview with a conservative writer that aired last week, former Fox News host Tucker Carlson. told the story of how he was attacked by a literal, physical demon while he was asleep in his bed with his wife and dogs. The internet immediately lit up with mockery for the disgraced TV host over his ridiculous claim. The mockery is great, but the real question is why Carlson even bothered to tell this bizarre tale to begin with.Donald Trump is going to have some help this time around when it comes to pushing his bogus claims of voter fraud and election interference. An analysis by The Washington Post has already found that the top conservative podcasters in the country have already been claiming that voter fraud is going to happen on Tuesday, they just don't have any evidence to back any of these claims up. These dangerous talking points are going to get someone hurt, or worse, just like we saw at the Capitol Riot in 2021. A former prosecutor with the Manhattan DA's office is reminding the country that Donald Trump's time as a free man could depend on what happens in the election tomorrow. If Trump loses, he will almost certainly be sentenced by Judge Juan Merchan at the end of this month, and there's a chance that could include a prison sentence. But even if Merchan doesn't put him behind bars, many other judges and juries could end up doing it - but ONLY if he loses tomorrow. Text and and let us know your thoughts on today's stories!
During a radio interview at the end of last week, Donald Trump said that special prosecutor Jack Smith should be thrown out of the country, which according to the 14th Amendment, is unconstitutional. This statement came just one day after Trump had said that he will fire Smith "in two seconds" if he wins the election. He is obviously terrified of what lies ahead of him if he doesn't win, as Farron Cousins explains. With just days to go before the election, Vice President Kamala Harris has secured the endorsements of multiple high-profile Republican leaders from swing states and red states. This includes former Republican Representative Fred Upton from Michigan, the Republican mayor of Oklahoma City, and the former Republican Party Chairman of the state of Florida. These endorsements could carry a lot of weight, considering where they are coming from and the reasoning behind them. Farron Cousins explains what's happening. It was recently revealed that Donald Trump has paid his campaign co-manager Chris LaCivita a staggering $22 million in the last two years, a massive sum for a campaign that is currently in a cash crunch. The Lincoln Project didn't waste any time pointing out the fact that he was a "fool" and a "sucker" in a new ad that torches the convicted felon for being taken advantage of by multiple different campaign managers over the years. Farron Cousins explains what happened. Donald Trump has been hit with the label of "fascist" for the past week, and a new poll shows that the talking point is definitely working. The new poll shows that half the country (a majority) believe that Trump is a fascist, and nearly two-thirds of voters believe that he tells lies constantly. In other words, a majority of the country believes that Trump is a lying fascist, and they do NOT think the same about Vice President Kamala Harris. Farron Cousins explains what this could mean for next week's election. Text and and let us know your thoughts on today's stories!
Rudy Giuliani has now lost everything after a judge this week ruled that his luxury apartment in Manhattan, all of his cash accounts, and many other personal items are now the property of the two Georgia election workers that he defamed. Even the $2 million debt that he is owed from the Trump campaign now belongs to Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss. This is all because Giuliani wanted to get a job in Trump's White House, which he never even got. Also, Donald Trump held an event in South Florida this week that could only be described as incoherent. The convicted felon repeatedly rambled his way through all sorts of weird stories, and at one point he couldn't even locate a woman that was sitting right next to him - Christi Farga, the mayor of Doral, Florida. If Biden had ever done even half the things that happened on stage the media would have lit up with endless stories about his mental decline, but for Trump, this was just another day of wackiness.And polls may show that Americans are split on who to vote for, but outside of this country, the answer is very clear: Non-Americans don't want to see Donald Trump get back into office. From London to Palestine, citizens are saying that Trump would be a disaster for the rest of the world, especially in areas that are already being torn apart by war. These allies need our help, and we need theirs, so electing a leader that they despise is probably not the best idea.Finally, Donald Trump abruptly cancelled a virtual roundtable event that was supposed to feature RFK, Jr. and Tulsi Gabbard this week, not long after he had called Vice President Kamala Harris "lazy." The man has absolutely no stamina to speak of, but once again the media is missing the story. His inability to close out the presidential race is a major red flag, but voters aren't going to know about these things if the national media isn't covering them.Subscribe to our YouTube channel to stay up to date on all of Farron’s content: https://www.youtube.com/FarronBalancedFollow Farron on social media!Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FarronBalancedTwitter: https://twitter.com/farronbalancedInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/farronbalancedTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@farronbalanced?lang=enText and and let us know your thoughts on today's stories!
Shortly after bragging about "acing" his cognitive exam more than 4 years ago, Donald Trump began impersonating a duck while talking about fracking at a rally in Pennsylvania over the weekend. The convicted felon former president repeated the phrase "frack, frack, frack" multiple times, saying that it sounded like a duck, which he seemed to enjoy way more than he should have. The man's brain has completely turned into mush.Also, the grift never stops with Donald Trump. Just hours after his widely-ridiculed McDonald's stunt over the weekend, the Trump campaign began selling what they are calling "MAGADonald's" shirts featuring an image of Trump hanging out a drive-thru window and waving. The man has absolutely no shame, and it is astounding that his most hardcore followers don't seem to understand or care that they are being fleeced. And a group of former Trump voters have banded together to convince voters across the country to NOT make the same mistakes that they had made in the past. These former MAGA voters have seen the error of their ways, and they now understand that the man is nothing short of an authoritarian conman who is only looking out for himself.Finally, Donald Trump's Save America PAC once boasted having over $200 million in the bank. But times have changed dramatically, and the group is now completely out of cash while being $3 million in debt. This is the group that has been paying Trump's legal bills, and if he can't find a way to get more money coming in immediately, then he is going to be on the hook for paying those bills out of his own bank account.

Donald Trump made good on his pledge to work at a McDonald's restaurant on Sunday, and the media had nothing but praise for the convicted felon. But what few outlets reported at the time was that the entire event was staged and the McDonald's was closed. Even the people in the drive through line were hand-selected to participate in the staged event. Everything about this was fake, like Trump himself.Also, Republican Senator Lindsey Graham appeared on Meet The Press on Sunday, and he ended up going completely bonkers when host Kristen Welker asked him why the generals who worked with Donald Trump call him a fascist. Graham started viciously attacking the Biden-Harris administration, as if that were some kind of answer to the question, and then he took aim at Republicans who are supporting Harris. The whole thing can only be described as a meltdown from Graham.And with the 2024 election just two weeks away, Vice President Kamala Harris is scoring some very important early victories over Donald Trump. The first is a new poll that shows that she is beating Trump 2 to 1 among early voters, a huge advantage that allows her to focus on undecided voters for election day. The second is a poll showing that Independents are breaking for Democrats by a 9-point margin, which could easily be enough to swing the election in a massive way. And even before reports emerged telling us that Elon Musk's Super PAC was not doing the actual work of door-knocking that they'd been hired to do, reports were coming out telling us that insiders at Trump's campaign were starting to freak out over the complete lack of a ground game in swing states. His campaign promised a month ago that they were going to be opening new offices and hiring more people in swing states, but that never happened. With just a few weeks to go, it may be impossible for the campaign to make up the ground that they've lost.Finally, during an event in Pennsylvania over the weekend, Donald Trump defended his mental prowess by repeatedly slurring his words, getting the name of the interviewer wrong, and failing to complete sentences. In fact, at one point Trump simply said "I have no cognitive," and stopped the sentence right there. The man did the entire event while sitting down because he doesn't even have the energy to stand for these events anymore.

Republican Senator Ted Cruz had a debate this week with his Democratic opponent, Representative Colin Allred, and Cruz got completely destroyed during that debate. Allred was calm, articulate, and smart with his attacks, and Cruz came across as smug and combative. The race is incredibly tight right now, and Cruz needed a solid knockout victory that never materialized. Also, Donald Trump did an interview with Bloomberg's editor in chief this week, and it was as horrible as you would expect. Trump was supposed to talk about economic policy and faced some tough questions, but rather than supply answers, he went off on completely unrelated tangents and lines of attack that made no sense. At one point, the host had to remind Trump of what the question was because he started talking about the DOJ and voter rolls in Virginia after a question about Google.And Vice President Kamala Harris released her medical records this past Saturday, and Donald Trump has spent most of his week since then complaining about it and trying to make it seem like she's suffering from serious health problems. Specifically, Trump says that her "seasonal allergies" could be indicative of a major health issue, showing how little he understands science, medicine, and the human body. But his tantrums on Truth Social are only increasing as he faces calls to release his own records.Finally, during his interview with Bloomberg this week, Donald Trump accidentally called out his own supporters in a way that he didn't anticipate. While he was talking about how he put "young" people on the Supreme Court, Trump said that only "stupid people" would put "old people" in positions of power. He is the oldest person to ever run for president, so by his own logic, that would mean that anyone who votes for him is stupid for giving an elderly person that much power.

Donald Trump may have hosted the weirdest event of his life on Monday evening in Pennsylvania. It was supposed to be a town hall event with questions from the crowd, but Trump only ended up taking a total of 4 questions and then turned the entire event into an awkward dance party. The convicted felon wouldn't let anyone leave the venue, and made them sit and listen to some of his favorite songs for 40 minutes as he moved his body on stage.Also, during his bizarre dance-a-thon on Monday night in Pennsylvania, Donald Trump had another weird moment where he encouraged his supporters to go and vote. That usually isn't a weird thing to do, but it is when you tell them to vote TWO MONTHS after the election ends, which is exactly what Trump did. He told his supporters to make sure that they go and vote on January 5th, which is two months after the election and the day before the electoral college certification in Congress. And Donald Trump has suffered a massive blow as one of his top billionaire donors has abandoned him and is now backing Vice President Kamala Harris. Trump continues to push away longtime supporters, including Geraldo Rivera this week, as more and more people begin to view him as mentally unstable and, more importantly, a dangerous threat to the country.Finally, during a recent rally in Arizona, Donald Trump went on a long-winded and completely incoherent rant about how he's actually NOT cognitively impaired. The rant itself was just more proof of his cognitive impairments, and the media is finally picking up on this theme as we enter the final weeks of the election. The man is becoming increasingly unstable and incomprehensible, and that's probably not the message that he wants to send out right before the election.
