GOP podcaster ridiculed on CNN panel as his defense of Trump sons collapses

A CNN panel had a good laugh as a GOP pundit twisted himself in a "pretzel" defending the Trump family.While discussing recent revelations about how much money Trump and his family made since returning to office last year, conservative podcaster Ben Ferguson had everyone around him in stitches.Ferguson, the host of "The Ben Ferguson Show," argued that the Trump family isn't corrupt for its involvement in billion-dollar ventures involving cryptocurrency and tungsten mining because they were engaged in "actual business."CNN anchor Abby Phillip, who described the Trump family as "real estate developers," shot back by asking, "What do the Trump sons know about mining rare earth minerals? What do the Trump sons know about robotics?"Ferguson's response was, "A lot, clearly, they made a lot of money off of it because they actually invest in it."The panel around him, which included political analyst and attorney Bakari Sellers, former Biden White House staffer Yemisi Egbewole, and former Bush White House official Ashley Davis, could be heard laughing together as Ferguson responded.Sellers chimed in by remarking, "I do hot yoga, and I feel like you're doing a little hot yoga too for that pretzel you got yourself in," which led to Egbewole and Davis laughing more."The president makes $400,000 a year," Sellers pointed out. "This quarter, he's made over $1 billion on crypto alone...that fundamentally is unethical. You can call it what you want."While Sellers mentioned Trump's presidential salary, Ferguson threw in one more defense: "he gives it all away," which also caused laughter around the table.

Progressive victory in Colorado a 'political asteroid' for 'do-nothings': analysis

The victory of progressive Democratic Socialist challenger Melat Kiros over longtime incumbent Rep. Diana DeGette (D-CO) on Tuesday is a "political asteroid" and a flashing alarm bell for party leadership, argued left-wing commentator Ken Klippenstein in a Substack post released Wednesday.The win, combined with other progressive victories against incumbents in New York City, signifies "a generational shift in the Democratic Party — gerontocrats dying electorally or literally, public approval at an all-time low, party-approved candidates getting mowed down like a brontosaurus napping in the Yucatán circa 66 million years ago," Klippenstein wrote.Kiros had a unique and circuitous route into politics, Klippenstein noted.Her run for Congress, he said, "came after Sidley Austin, the white-shoe firm where she worked, fired her in 2023 for refusing to take down a letter she'd posted defending students protesting the war in Gaza. Kiros moved back to Denver — where her family had settled after immigrating from Ethiopia," and then she took up work at a coffee shop until this campaign.Klippenstein argued that DeGette, 68, had grown complacent — and that her pitch to voters, laid out on her X bio as "Running to expand abortion rights, environmental justice and opportunity in our community” is the sort of "unfalsifiably vague" message voters in these types of progressive districts simply won't settle for anymore.Voters, he argued, "don’t want promises of opportunity when there are none. They don’t want to return to the 'good old days' once Trump is gone. People want politicians who think big and respond to this political ice age — where nothing changes, everything is frozen in place, and life for the normal citizen never gets better."Democrats should take heed, he argued — or they'll continue to be caught off guard by younger, progressive upset challenges.

Mike Johnson's attempt to appease Trump collapses in humiliating fashion: MS NOW

House Speaker Mike Johnson attempted to pass President Donald Trump's Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act, or the SAVE America Act, by attaching it to the annual defense budget bill, or NDAA, a strategy devised by conservative hardliners led by Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL). However, the plan backfired when 14 House Republicans blocked the procedural vote, according to Politico. Luna had previously vowed to block all House bills unless the Senate acted on the legislation, but Johnson chose a different approach by combining both measures during the procedural vote. The failure was compounded by Trump's previous claims on Truth Social, when he opposed using the NDAA as leverage for the SAVE America Act. Luna and Johnson proceeded anyway. MS NOW was quick to react, with reporter Mychael Schnell saying, "it's a massive embarrassment and a blow to Speaker Johnson."She continued, "It's never good when a rule vote fails. But the interesting thing here is that the left hand isn't really aware of what the right hand is doing when you talk about Republican leaders, because last week, President Trump had taken to Truth Social and said he did not want these Republicans in the House to be holding hostage these procedural rules in the NDAA in order to get the SAVE America bill passed." The blocked vote has left the House floor paralyzed with no clear path forward for the legislation, though conservatives and Trump remain unwilling to abandon the effort.Watch the video below.
