Miami Herald: I’m done trying to understand Trump supporters. Why don’t they try to understand me?

Donald Trump paid more than $2.3 million in donor money to law firms helping Ivanka Trump with her legal problems last year

 

A political action group controlled by Donald Trump has spent millions of dollars on law firms representing his adult children for their personal legal problems.

 

The Save America PAC spent a combined $2.3 million in 2023 for two law firms that represented Ivanka Trump, his elder daughter, according to a Business Insider review of Federal Election Commission records.

 

The PAC spent an additional $5.3 million on the law firm Robert & Robert, which represented his three eldest children — Ivanka Trump, Eric Trump, and Donald Trump Jr. — as well as the Trump Organization in an array of lawsuits that have no apparent relation to Trump's campaign to retake the presidency in the 2024 election.

 

Trump founded Save America shortly after he lost the 2020 presidential election. He's used it as is primary fundraising vehicle, often sending out messages making false claims about the 2020 election and his legal problems to convince donors to give it money.

 

Much of the PAC's expenses go to legal fees, with Trump battling criminal indictments and civil lawsuits over his attempts to overturn the results of the 2020 election, claims of sexual misconduct and defamation, and allegations of financial misconduct through his company, as well as suing media organizations for what he claims is unfair coverage.

Bible fan-fiction is a genre I never thought would exist, yet here we are.

The Divine Comedy by Dante Alighieri and Paradise Lost by Milton are not only Biblical fan-fic, but honestly the basis for a lot of what modern American Christianity believes about the Bible that isn't actually in the Bible.

Heritage Action Scorecards Used to Strike Fear in Republicans. Not Anymore.

 

Not so long ago, if Heritage Action announced that it would be “key voting” a vote in the House or Senate, conservative lawmakers could be counted on to line up and do whatever Heritage Action demanded.

 

Now when the political partner of the Heritage Foundation alerts a “key vote,” barely anyone blinks. The organization’s once-powerful “scorecards” have been supplanted by a more important metric: the approval of Donald Trump. “The teeth are not there in the way that they used to be,” a former senior official at Heritage told NOTUS. “That’s because of the whole shift in conservatism. It’s like, you can be bad on the Heritage Action scorecard, but if, you know, Trump thinks you’re awesome … it doesn’t really matter.”
