    We really do live in a clown world when the people who simply repeat government + media talking points believe they are the smart ones. Imagine looking at a Russian citizen who repeats Pravda news and believing he is enlightened and intelligent. That's the American liberal for you! Feed 'em anything from the government + media alliance -- they'll believe it.

    The very people who IDOLIZE Trump want every one else to know that IDOLATRY is a sin. Unforced self goal, methinks.

    This is just crazy to me....

    Oklahoma GOP votes to condemn Sen. Lankford for role in bipartisan border talks

    The Oklahoma Republican Party approved a resolution over the weekend condemning and censuring Sen. James Lankford, the state’s senior senator, for his role in the ongoing bipartisan border negotiations in Congress.

    Oklahoma Republicans accuse Lankford of “playing fast and loose” with Democrats on border policy and that he puts “the safety and security of Americans in great danger,” according to a copy of the resolution posted to X by Republican state Sen. Dusty Deevers.

    The state party called on Lankford to “cease and desist jeopardizing the security and liberty of the people of Oklahoma” and said it will withhold support for Lankford until he ends the negotiations.

    CNN has reached out to Lankford’s office for comment.

    The resolution comes as text of a compromise border deal could be ready to go to the Senate floor in the coming days and as former President Donald Trump is seeking to kill off the deal that might ease the situation on the border. The state committee’s response illustrates the reality that most in the GOP are loathe to do anything that is seen as potentially undermining the former president.

    “We do have a bipartisan deal. We’re finishing the text right now,” Democratic Sen. Chris Murphy of Connecticut told CNN’s Dana Bash on “State of the Union,” adding that the question remains whether Republicans are going to listen to Trump, who has tried to tank the compromise.

    Lankford, appearing on CBS’ “Face the Nation” on Sunday, said there is no vote count on the deal yet. However, he said he feels “positive about it because even the initial feedback has been good.”

    As for Trump’s attempts to stop the deal, Lankford said that there is a lot of misinformation about the content of the bill and that he is “looking forward” to Trump having the opportunity to read it once there is a text.

    Lankford won reelection in in 2022 and is not up for reelection until 2028.

    Trump might actually read it if and only if Lankford condensed the entire bill to a literal text message. Haha.

    Poor Lankford. Guy needs to get with the swill-filled vortex that is the current GOP's cult of personality and quit trying to do the actual work associated with his job.

    I don't know, but the anti-Swift thing could really backfire. These young red state folks could turn away from Swift and toward... I dunno... Sleep Token?! :eek:

    I don't follow the NFL but if it's deep-state controlled.... I imagine that's one super big bowl of victimhood.

    @Space Ghost @AroundTheWorld this is what you call being in a cult and brainwashed. No biden supporter is utterly half as deranged as the MAGATs.

    Brainwashing people with disinformation
