President Donald Trump withdrew his endorsement of Republican lawmaker Marjorie Taylor Greene on Friday, citing her recent criticism of his agenda in a notable rupture between Trump and one of his most outspoken congressional allies.
"I am withdrawing my support and endorsement of 'Congresswoman' Marjorie Taylor Greene, of the great state of Georgia," Trump posted on Truth Social late on Friday.
Greene accused Trump of trying to intimidate other Republicans ahead of a vote next week on releasing the Epstein files, calling it "astonishing really how hard he's fighting to stop the Epstein files from coming out that he actually goes to this level."
Or whatever you are listening to...

Megyn Kelly has been eviscerated for suggesting Jeffrey Epstein was not an "actual pedophile" because he preyed on "barely legal" 15-year-olds, not elementary-aged kids.
Kelly made the bizarre assertion after claiming she has a source who does not believe Epstein was a pedophile at all, apparently. However, Kelly's definition of pedophilia appears to deviate from what most Americans understand the word to mean.
Fly-tippers have dumped a "grotesque" mountain of waste in a field in Oxfordshire. The "environmental catastrophe unfolding in plain sight" is up to 150m (490ft) long and 6m (20ft) high and has appeared on a site between the River Cherwell and the A34 near Kidlington. Calum Miller, Liberal Democrat MP for Bicester and Woodstock, has raised the issue in Parliament, saying it was "threatening an environmental disaster". He also said Cherwell District Council had estimated the cost of removing the waste would be greater than its entire annual budget. Read more
The aforementioned NWYTO article sheds additional light on why carrier maintenance takes so long: -The Navy has a measly four national shipyards capable of carrying out carrier repairs (a sad reflection on just how much American shipbuilding capability has declined in the post-Cold War era). Many experienced workers have retired, and new hires lack hands-on expertise. The nightmarish COVID-19 lockdowns disrupted production and maintenance even further, creating multi-year delays that continue to affect readiness throughout the fleet. As Doc says ... Send in the H1Bs to the rescue. Read more
Multiple families have told ITV News that hospitals are still routinely placing Do Not Attempt Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation orders, or DNRs, on medical records without their consent, despite the NHS being ordered to stop the practice following an investigation by the Care Quality Commission in 2020.
Enhanced Affordable Care Act subsidies are set to expire in just weeks " which would more than double the cost of premiums nationally for tens of millions of Americans.
And it's causing deep anxiety among some in the party, particularly in battleground seats, who worry Republicans will end up doing nothing to prevent those price hikes and enter a critical midterm year with the issue of health care haunting them once again.
These days, the tech world is obsessed with humanoid robots, and every company worth its salt is racing to develop its own bipedal droid that it can push to market. Unfortunately, a lot of these robots don't seem to work very well yet. Case in point: This week, a Russian company unveiled its much-hyped prototype for its humanoid bot, only to have the machine face-plant onstage in front of hundreds of onlookers. The robot in question, AIdol, is the product of a Russian company called Idol, which was presenting at a forum from the New Technology Coalition, which The Telegram describes as an "association of companies for the development of humanoid robots." The bot, described as "Russia's first anthropomorphic robot," unfortunately lost balance, fell down, and broke onstage. Numerous outlets have noted the sad irony that the event was playing music from the Rocky soundtrack when the bot took its tumble.
Jeffrey Epstein was in Trumpf Tower five days after the Dotard won the election in 2016. Dummkopf Trumpf has tried for years to distance himself from the reprehensible Epstein, saying, "I don't think I've spoken to him for 15 years." The released emails contradict Dummkopf Trumpf's fabrication. Moreover, emails reveal the late monster advised the abominable Steve Bannon that the lawyers representing dirtbag Brett Kavanaugh in his SCOTUS confirmation hearing should accuse Christine Blasey Ford of being on medications that cause false memories or memory loss.

When President Donald Trump told reporters on Sept. 5 he'd started looking at sending the National Guard to Portland, Oregon, he said it was because of something he saw on television. He said the city was being destroyed by paid agitators. "What they've done to that place, it's like living in hell," he said, a comment that became an internet meme as some Portland residents juxtaposed it with tranquil images of the city. The evening before, on Sept. 4, Fox News aired a two-and-a-half-minute segment spotlighting protests outside a federal Immigration and Customs Enforcement field office in Portland. Similar footage aired the morning of Trump's remarks. The president went on to announce Sept. 27 on Truth Social that he would send troops, saying that he was "authorizing Full Force, if necessary." He later said he'd told Oregon's governor, Tina Kotek, that "unless they're playing false tapes, this looked like World War II. Your place is burning down." Read more
The Trump administration on Thursday said import taxes on coffee and bananas will be lowered as part of trade deals with four Latin American countries.
The agreements with Argentina, Guatemala, El Salvador and Ecuador come as US President Donald Trump faces scrutiny over his handling of the economy and concerns about affordability.
As part of an initial framework, a reciprocal tariff of 10% will stay on goods from Guatemala, Argentina and El Salvador, as will a 15% tax on imports from Ecuador into the US. But the deals will exempt products that cannot be produced in the US "in sufficient quantities," such as coffee.
The US-Argentina deal also addresses beef producers' access to foreign markets.
President Donald Trump has handed Paul Ingrassia, whose nomination to lead a government watchdog crashed in the Senate after his alleged racist texts were leaked, a new job in his administration. Ingrassia, 30, withdrew his nomination to lead the Office of Special Counsel last month when GOP senators revolted over leaked group chat messages in which he allegedly used racial slurs and bragged about having a "Nazi streak." Despite the messages, Ingrassia kept his post as the White House liaison to the Department of Homeland Security.
In one of the leaked emails, Mark Epstein, Jeffrey Epstein's brother suggests to ask Steve Bannon if Putin has "the photo of Trump blowing Bubba," to which Epstein replied, "and I thought- I had tsuris," which is Yiddish for troubles. Who is Bubba?
