MAGA is a mess at the moment. A movement that has largely been fueled by conspiracy theories peddled by its leader, Donald Trump, in eradicating the Deep State is now at a crossroads. One of its biggest conspiracy theories, The Jeffrey Epstein files, is risking tearing apart the entire movement. Leaders want Attorney General Pam Bondi to step down. Other leaders, including Trump, are fully supportive of her and blaming (of course) Democrats while trying to shift the focus to other worn out conspiracy theories. Those same Democrats are hopeful that this wedge issue will make the base fall apart. It was a moment long in the making, and it is finally here. Get your popcorn.

All the conspiracy theories surrounding Jeffrey Epstein's death and client list took a major hit this week when the DOJ and FBI announced that there was no list and he committed suicide. The news surprised many, particularly MAGA supporters, who were sold on the idea that the Deep State was finally going to be exposed. To me, this is the latest example of a long history of Trump overselling and under delivering. Elon Musk is contemplating creating a third political party. Why this would benefit all races but POTUS.

Two-term Republican North Carolina Senator opted to not run for re-election in 2026 in what will likely be the most contested Congressional race of the upcoming election. Tillis was despised by many Republicans for being a RINO, with his history of periodically going against the GOP agenda, or more importantly, Trump. His knack for seeking bipartisanship compromise may have cost him a third term, but will Republican's decision to force him out cost them a Senate seat in 2026 and create a blockade to Trump's agenda for the latter half of his term? I think this is a "be careful what you wish for" scenario for the NC GOP. Let's discuss.
