Latinos for Trump Leader Warns Trump Has 'Offended the Lord,' Must 'Repent'

The leader of the Latinos for Trump political organization says that the former president's recent troubles stem from a lack of religious outreach.

Bianca Gracia is the president of Latinos for Trump, a group founded in the summer of 2019 by conservative activist Marco Gutierrez, to help mobilize Latino voters toward Donald Trump. On Thursday, Gracia appeared on the conservative podcast, The Jeff Dornik Show, which claims to focus on "exposing election fraud, COVID-19 and the danger of the vaccines, our constitutional rights being stripped away, an America First agenda and rooting out the RINOs from the Republican Party."

During the interview, Gracia said that Trump's recent issues stemmed from his recent lack of focus on religion and reaching out to faith leaders. Emphasizing that point, the episode's title was, "Latinos for Trump President Bianca Gracia Believes There May be a Reason God Doesn't Want Trump to be President."

Florida judge to hold hearing Thursday on request to unseal Mar-a-Lago affidavit

CNN)The federal magistrate judge who approved the Mar-a-Lago search warrant will hold a hearing Thursday at the court in Florida to discuss requests to unseal investigators' probable cause affidavit, which the Justice Department has opposed releasing.

A federal judge on Friday unsealed the search warrant and property receipt from the FBI search of former President Donald Trump's resort in Palm Beach, Florida, a move the Justice Department backed, but on Monday, the DOJ said it opposed releasing the affidavit specifically in an effort to protect witnesses and keep grand jury proceedings confidential.
"Disclosure of the government's affidavit at this stage would also likely chill future cooperation by witnesses whose assistance may be sought as this investigation progresses, as well as in other high-profile investigations," the Justice Department wrote. "The fact that this investigation implicates highly classified materials further underscores the need to protect the integrity of the investigation and exacerbates the potential harm if information is disclosed to the public prematurely or improperly."
Media organizations, including CNN, had asked for the affidavit to be unsealed after the search last week at Trump's Palm Beach, Florida, club and residence.

Nuclear Documents? Boom!

CNN) The FBI sought to locate classified documents related to nuclear weapons, among other items, when agents searched former President Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago resort in Palm Beach, Florida, this week, people familiar with the investigation told The Washington Post.

The people did not offer additional details to the Post about "what type of information the agents were seeking" or whether any such documents were recovered, according to the paper.

The revelation adds key context to the Justice Department's extraordinary decision to search the home of a former president.

Utah-based company ripped out 'Made in China' tags, replaced with 'Made in USA,' officials say

An apparel company known for inflammatory apparel championing the Second Amendment and Donald Trump has been fined after the Federal Trade Commission found the company falsely claimed its imported apparel is made in the U.S.

Utah-based Lions Not Sheep and its owner, SeanWhalen, were slapped with a $211,335 fine last week after the FTC found the company removed “Made in China” tags, replacing them with fake “Made in the USA” labels, according to a FTC news release.

Great article from Politico re: Senator Warnock

‘There’s Never Been Anybody Like Him in the United States Senate’

DALTON, Ga. — In the middle of a community center gym in the northwest corner of this state that is the epicenter of American politics stood the Reverend Senator Raphael Warnock. Flanked by red, white and blue balloons, the Democrat campaigning here in staunchly Republican terrain looked out at a small but supportive crowd of Black and white faces. Wearing wire-rim glasses and a trim navy suit, his bald head not quite as shiny as his gleaming brown shoes, the preacher politician made his case for re-election with a sermon on the transcendent power of pavement.
“Infrastructure is spiritual,” he said.
“I believe in this so much that something really unusual happened … something that I didn’t see coming,” he said. “The Warnock-Cruz amendment.”
The people in the bleachers seemed confused. But he had their attention.

The rest is worth a read:

Betsy DeVos says the Department of Education 'should not exist'

WASHINGTON - Betsy DeVos, who served as secretary of education under former President Donald Trump, said over the weekend to a conservative group that the department she led should be abolished.
"I personally think the Department of Education should not exist," she said Saturday during a Moms for Liberty event , in Tampa, Florida, according to Florida Phoenix.
DeVos added that educational decisions must be left up to states and local boards, per the Florida Phoenix.
Moms for Liberty's goal is to "organize, educate and empower parents to defend their parental rights at all levels of government," according to its website.
DeVos' comment comes during a time of escalating culture war led by conservatives targeting the teaching of social issues such as race, gender identity, sexual orientation and the desire for more parents to control the school curriculum.

An excerpt from Leibovich's new book

He has a new book out tomorrow: Thank You For Your Servitude: Donald Trump’s Washington and the Price of Submission



Leibovich comparing Trump to an “opossum that gets into the attic, dies, stinks, and attracts derivative nuisances.” He takes a beat to recognize that “It’s probably disrespectful” to compare the office of the presidency to a rotting varmint, but he can’t find the energy to care. “I used to be mindful of these things,” he writes. “Color me worn down.”

Rolling stone has an article covering the book “ He Exposed the D.C. Swamp. Now He’s Taking on Trump’s Biggest Sycophants”
