Ron DeSantis' wife is going to play a very prominent role in his presidential campaign. Some of his supporters wonder if that's an entirely good thing.
By operationalizing the culture war into a set of concrete policies, DeSantis has transformed the nation's third most populous state. What was once the butt of jokes about gators and retirees is now the swaggering, Southern-tinged Free State of Florida"where men are men, woke is broke, and business is booming; 1,200 net new residents arrive every day.
Shortly after a gunman opened fire at the Allen Premium Outlets Saturday afternoon, Steven Spainhouer jumped into action. Spainhouer said what he witnessed Saturday will haunt him for the rest of his life.

One of THREE Clinton Foundation investigations was predicated off oppo research funded by Trump's ultimate campaign manager, biased agents ran informants, the investigation was leaked just before election, and it lasted until 2021.
But sure, Trump is the victim.
Also, has any Trump man ever been able to say this about a legal investigation?:
Mr. Durham also compared the handling of the Clinton Foundation investigation to the F.B.I.'s treatment of the Russia investigation. As part of his inquiry, Mr. Durham questioned Mrs. Clinton last spring. "Secretary Clinton was voluntarily interviewed by Special Counsel Durham on May 11, 2022," said David E. Kendall, her lawyer. "No topics were off limits. She answered every question."

Oh, there are going to be multiple lawsuits coming out of this little stunt:
Assemblyman Brian Maher (R-Montgomery) spent the last week claiming that 20 veterans were kicked out of a hotel to make way for an influx of migrants being brought up from NYC. On Thursday afternoon, he admitted that the whole situation was a series of lies.
Last Friday Maher teamed up with Sharon Toney-Finch of the YIT Foundation who told him that a number of veterans were being displaced as a result of arriving migrants. Together, the two began a campaign of denouncing the Crossroads Hotel in the Town of Newburgh where the veterans were allegedly staying. Toney-Finch, the director of the YIT Foundation, said she had housed 20 veterans at the Crossroads but the homeless veterans were told last Thursday night that they needed to check out on Friday. That has been denied by hotel management. Maher was steadfast in supporting Finch. Last Friday he denounced the hotel by name and used the incident, debunked by Mid-Hudson News, to attack the federal government's management of the migrant/asylum-seeker crisis. He also used the false situation to introduce legislation to prohibit the displacement of homeless veterans to make way for migrants.

Does telling a narcissist what they want to hear make Meadows a co-conspirator?

In psychological terms, such a person is known as an enabler. Does that equate to a co-conspirator in legal terms? Don't know. Seems like it could/should.
