MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell was a guest at one of the rallies that Donald Trump held on Wednesday, and his performance wasn't exactly filled with truth. Lindell told the crowd that all the Democrats he's spoken to said that they are voting for Trump in this year's election. This isn't just a lie - it is a dangerous statement that gives people like Lindell and Trump cover to claim the election was stolen if they lose in November. Also, Donald Trump held two midwest rallies on Wednesday of this week, and it did not go well for him. He's clearly a little rusty from being stuck in a courtroom all day, because when the teleprompter broke down during his Michigan speech, he began ranting incoherently about the word "folks". Throughout the speech he was slurring his words and appeared confused at times, a sign that his mental health has sharply declined since his trial began.And Marjorie Taylor Greene is moving forward with her effort to remove Republican House Speaker Mike Johnson, even though she admitted to Steve Bannon this week that no one in Congress likes the drama that she is creating. So she's self-aware enough to know that she's not liked, but she's too stubborn to change her course. And her Republican colleagues are not being shy about how unhappy they are with her antics as they continue to trash her in the media.Finally, Donald Trump's legal team seems fairly convinced that their client is going to eventually be put behind bars by Judge Juan Merchan, so new reports say that the team is working on a "jailbreak" strategy to prevent that from happening. The strategy mostly involves filing emergency appeals with the higher courts, but that strategy is essentially the only legal option that they have at that point, so it isn't very good. 

Donald Trump's brain appeared to completely short circuit during an interview with a local news reporter this week. Trump began talking about the crime rate in Venezuela and how they were sending all their "criminals" to America, but when the host asked where that information came from, all Trump could say was "uhhhhh..." The former President was caught in a lie and he knew it, and all it took was a simple question about where he got his information.Also, Donald Trump suffered another humiliating loss this week as he continued to try to get the hush money case dismissed. He had brought his grievance to the appeals court in New York, but they quickly shot him down and said that the trial will continue. Trump tried to argue that he could end up with presidential immunity and therefore the whole case would be thrown out, but the higher court is not going to end everything based on a hypothetical.And Republican Representative Elise Stefanik made a complete fool of herself this week by filing an ethics complaint against special prosecutor Jack Smith. In her complaint to the Department of Justice, Stefanik claimed that Smith is trying to "unlawfully interfere in the presidential election" by prosecuting Donald Trump, citing a non-official rule at the DOJ that technically wouldn't even apply to this situation.Finally, during an interview with Time Magazine that was made public this week, Donald Trump claimed that there is an inherent "anti-white bias" in the United States that, according to him, is far worse than the racism faced by people of color. Trump is clearly leaning into racism as the election draws closer, and he's hoping to capitalize on the politics of white rage, much like he did in 2016.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/FarronBalanced/Twitter: https://twitter.com/farronbalancedInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/farronbalancedTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@farronbalanced?lang=en

Newsmax host Eric Bolling had a complete meltdown this week over a clip of President Biden eating a salad. Bolling claimed that the President can barely feed himself and yet he has access to the nuclear codes. But the clip doesn't even back up Bolling's claims that Biden was struggling - it just showed a man eating a salad that he didn't seem particularly enthusiastic about eating.Also, according to a new report, Donald Trump is not happy with his criminal trial lawyers, and he's been raging about them behind the scenes to his friends and allies. The main reason Trump is so angry is because he believes that his lead lawyer, Todd Blanche, is not being "aggressive" enough in the courtroom. Trump wants him to attack the judge, the witnesses, and sometimes even the jury, but doing so would absolutely seal Trump's fate in a bad way. But if that's what Trump wants, he may end up getting it, as Farron explains.And CNN is holding focus groups every few weeks to gauge voters' preferences ahead of the 2024 election. And their most recent focus group featured a panel of women voters who had nothing nice to say about Donald Trump. In fact, they were almost completely united in their disgust of the former President, with some going as far as to say that he should be thrown UNDER the jail. This does not bode well for Trump heading into November.Finally, if Donald Trump is actually held in contempt for violating the gag order against him by Judge Juan Merchan, it could have a ripple effect across the remaining criminal trials that he's facing. As part of his bond agreements in all cases, he pledged to not commit any more crimes, but a contempt charge would fit the description of a crime, which means his bond in all cases could end up being revoked - putting him in jail. 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/FarronBalanced/Twitter: https://twitter.com/farronbalancedInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/farronbalancedTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@farronbalanced?lang=en

Republican House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan didn't realize that he was walking into the lion's den on Sunday morning when he appeared on Fox News, but he was quickly eaten alive by host Maria Bartiromo. Jordan got torched by the usually-friendly host about conducting investigations into Biden for over a year and having absolutely nothing to show for it, before adding that Republicans are getting "sick and tired" of the theatrics.Also, Donald Trump's criminal trial is not only not going well for him inside the courtroom, but new reports suggest that the trial is creating massive headaches for his campaign advisers. Reports say that these advisers had no idea about the salacious details that would emerge during the trial, and they've now been blindsided by less than flattering information about their boss as they learn about it at the same time the rest of the public is.And during a recent interview with CNN, Donald Trump's former Attorney General Bill Barr admitted that his old boss used to regularly talk about executing his political rivals. This interview and admission emerged the day after the Supreme Court hearing last week on Presidential immunity where Trump's legal team suggested that a president has the legal authority to execute anyone they please. In spite of this admission, Barr still says he's supporting Trump for President - likely because he doesn't want to be on Trump's enemy list. Finally, Donald Trump has now fallen asleep nearly every day of his criminal trial while sitting in the courtroom, and a prominent psychologist is warning that this could be a sign of a larger cognitive medical problem. While napping for someone Trump's age is not abnormal at all, the circumstances certainly aren't normal. Given the fact that this is a high-stress time for the former president and he STILL can't manage to stay awake, Dr. John Gartner says this could be a sign of dementia or another serious mental problem.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/FarronBalanced/Twitter: https://twitter.com/farronbalancedInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/farronbalancedTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@farronbalanced?lang=en

A new report has confirmed that Donald Trump's Trump Media and Technology Group sought H-1B visas for prospective employees so that they could bring in foreign labor to work at the company. This revelation by itself is not that bad, but it becomes that way when you remember that Donald Trump specifically railed against these types of visas and didn't want them to be used anymore. Like most people in business, Trump talks out of both sides of his mouth on issues to project one image while doing something completely different behind the scenes.Also, Donald Trump's social media company might be in even more trouble as a new report has found that the auditor hired by the company to deliver financial reports and status updates for stockholders has been found to use different names, possibly in order to avoid scrutiny. The company also has a bad history of being popped by regulators for providing faulty information. This information is used to ensure investors that the company is sound, and if they can't be trusted then it will be nearly impossible to attract new investments. And the attorney general of Arizona last week announced criminal charges against 18 of Donald Trump's allies and accomplices for their role in the fake elector scheme in the state. Some of these people have been indicted in other states already, but one person is new to the game - Christina Bobb. Bobb not only was indicted for her role in Arizona, but she was also recently appointed as the RNC's new Election Integrity leader, and that's a really bad look for the GOP.Finally, in spite of what every single poll on the issue says, a Republican consultant wrote an op-ed for The New York Times late last week where he swore that the ongoing criminal trial of Donald Trump will help him win the election. In fact, the consultant said that the criminal trial is a "gift from the political gods" for Trump, even though all of the available data points to the opposite being true. 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/FarronBalanced/Twitter: https://twitter.com/farronbalancedInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/farronbalancedTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@farronbalanced?lang=en

 Donald Trump has not been shy about letting the world know how angry he is about being stuck in a courtroom for his criminal trial, and he's been showing his visible disdain for the proceedings while sitting in the courtroom. Sources close to Trump spoke to CNN this week and expressed their concerns about his anger going out of control, which could result in him blowing up in court - which would then blow up his case.Also, Trump Media CEO Devin Nunes sent a letter to his former Republican colleagues on Capitol Hill this week, begging them to save his company as the stock price keeps falling. Specifically, Nunes wants the House to launch an investigation into whether or not people are engaging in "naked short selling" of the stock, which is an illegal practice that involves people betting on the stock continuing to decline. But there's a very significant problem with Nunes' request.And Donald Trump has put his two idiot sons, Don Jr. and Eric, in charge of vetting potential White House staffers and cabinet members to make sure that they have unconditional loyalty to him. Their goal, as reported by Axios who spoke to people close to Junior, is to prevent more people like John Bolton from getting into the administration. But their REAL goal is to make sure that there won't be anyone in the administration that will tell Trump "no."Finally,  Donald Trump's mental health is in a very bad place right now, and the whole world knows it based on his outbursts outside the courtroom as well as his posts on Truth Social. The alternative reality that he has been living in for far too long is crashing down around him, and he doesn't know how to deal with the real world that he's now faced with. The trial is certainly taking its toll on him, and we're not even close to being halfway through with it, so we can expect even more mental deterioration as it drags on. 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/FarronBalanced/Twitter: https://twitter.com/farronbalancedInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/farronbalancedTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@farronbalanced?lang=en

Donald Trump is losing a lot of sleep as he frets about his legal troubles, and at 2 a.m. on Wednesday morning he sent out a frantic post on Truth Social where he begged Republicans to step in and stop his trial. Trump is definitely wearing his emotions on his sleeve, and it isn't a good look. His mind is going to keep deteriorating as this process drags on.Also, things are going from bad to worse for Marjorie Taylor Greene as she continues to lose allies in her fight against her own Party. This past weekend, Donald Trump reversed course and said that he supports the aid packages that Greene has been railing against. Once that happened, Greene suffered an avalanche of attacks from conservative media outlets that were once her closest friends. Greene is all alone and vulnerable.And a treasure trove of documents related to the Mar-a-Lago documents case against Donald Trump were released this week, and they don't do Trump any favors. Among the more shocking revelations was that the FBI failed to search a secret room that was hidden within Trump's bedroom at the golf resort, which means there could be even more hidden documents that the government doesn't know about.Finally, Donald Trump and his lawyers have had a really bad week in court so far, and that fact is weighing heavily on Trump. During the gag order violation hearing this week, the judge snapped at Trump's lawyer for failing to answer a question and warned him that he is "losing his credibility." After court ended for the day, Trump got on Truth Social to have a meltdown about the judge humiliating his lawyer in front of the jury, and proceeded to send out a fundraising email saying that he was being "held hostage." 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/FarronBalanced/Twitter: https://twitter.com/farronbalancedInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/farronbalancedTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@farronbalanced?lang=en

 Over the weekend, Donald Trump called for his supporters to show up in large numbers to protest his prosecution at the New York courthouse. Instead of being greeted by hordes of his supporters, there were about 10 people that showed up to protest his prosecution. The former President was furious, and once again got on Truth Social to beg people to show up and let him know that he is loved.Also,  during an appearance on Newsmax this week, Kari Lake went on a rant about how bad Hillary Clinton is and repeated debunked conspiracy theories that people in her orbit have a bad habit of "mysteriously" dying. She then made sure to point out that she loves her life, and if anything happens to her it is because someone - like Hillary Clinton - had it out for her. This is a dangerous lie to be spreading, and is the kind of thing that prompts unhinged right wingers to commit unspeakable acts.And Fox News host Jesse Watters is apparently worried about Donald Trump's health as he is forced to sit for long hours in a courtroom for the next few weeks. During a segment this week, Watters whined that Trump needs exercise and he's "usually golfing", but he can't do that when he's stuck in court and that's not good for his body. Watters then went a step forward and said that denying Trump the ability to play golf is "cruel and unusual punishment."Finally, Alina Habba had to appear in court for Donald Trump on Monday for a bond hearing, and afterwards she immediately ran to reporters with cameras to rant about how unfair everything is. But the reporters didn't buy into her arguments, and the microphones around Habba picked up a ton of laughter coming from the audience as she attempted to claim that the justice system is rigged against Trump. No one believes her and no one respects her, but she still doesn't seem to notice. 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/FarronBalanced/Twitter: https://twitter.com/farronbalancedInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/farronbalancedTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@farronbalanced?lang=en

During an appearance on CNN this past weekend, Republican Congressman Tony Gonzalez went scorched earth against some of his Republican colleagues, paying particular attention to Matt Gaetz. Not only did Gonzalez say that he serves with "some real scumbags" in Congress, but he also made shocking allegations about Gaetz's behavior that is currently being investigated by the House Ethics Committee.Also, Donald Trump has not been happy with the pathetic show of support that he has received since his trial began, and he has now resorted to begging his supporters to show up and protest outside the courthouse. Last week he only had about 50 supporters that actually showed up on the first day, and that number appeared to shrink as the week went on. And with other protestors (on other issues) flooding Manhattan, Trump is left looking like a lost cause.And during an interview on Fox News on Sunday, Marjorie Taylor Greene was asked by host Maria Bartiromo to explain her plan for ousting House Speaker Mike Johnson, along with her rationale for doing so. When Greene stumbled, Bartiromo went to break to give Greene some time to gather her thoughts, but even that didn't help. Bartiromo appeared to get annoyed at that point and was forced to call out Greene for not actually having a plan and just seeming to want to cause chaos. Finally, rumors have been swirling since last week that Donald Trump is having trouble controlling his flatulence during his criminal trial, with several people reporting that they've heard of a "putrid smell" permeating through the courtroom. While these rumors have not been confirmed, what has been confirmed is that Trump's legal team spent $700 at a nearby McDonald's during lunch on Thursday, and that amount of fast food is certainly enough to give anyone a little gas.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/FarronBalanced/Twitter: https://twitter.com/farronbalancedInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/farronbalancedTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@farronbalanced?lang=en

Following Donald Trump's repeated violations of the gag order against him, Judge Juan Merchan was left with little choice but to punish Trump and his legal team. The judge ruled late last week that the names of the first three witnesses that the prosecution is going to call will remain sealed, preventing Trump's team from being ready for what is coming once the trial fully commences. This is a massive blow to Trump's team.Also, according to a sworn statement from a witness to the House Ethics Committee, Congressman Matt Gaetz attended a party in 2017 - while he was a sitting lawmaker - that was filled with drugs and underage girls. This is the type of information that the Committee is gathering against Gaetz, but they are running out of time if they want this to have an impact on this year's election. Farron explains what the Committee has found and how it may impact Gaetz this year.And as he was heading into the courtroom on Friday morning, Donald Trump raged to reporters about the gag order that has been placed on him. In a lie-filled rant, Trump claimed that he's "only telling the truth" about what's happening, when in fact, he's actually posted numerous claims that are complete fabrications. He knows that he's about to get punished, possibly harshly, and he thinks lying to the public is the only way to save himself.Finally, Donald Trump is not legally able to take money away from his campaign to support his businesses, so he's going back to his old habits of using his own properties and then charging his campaign for the costs. This is what he did as president to help prop up his businesses, and now he's doing it with his donors' money. This is a bad look for Trump, especially since his financial troubles are now well-known by everyone. 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/FarronBalanced/Twitter: https://twitter.com/farronbalancedInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/farronbalancedTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@farronbalanced?lang=en
