During an appearance on CNN this past weekend, Republican Congressman Tony Gonzalez went scorched earth against some of his Republican colleagues, paying particular attention to Matt Gaetz. Not only did Gonzalez say that he serves with "some real scumbags" in Congress, but he also made shocking allegations about Gaetz's behavior that is currently being investigated by the House Ethics Committee.
Also, Donald Trump has not been happy with the pathetic show of support that he has received since his trial began, and he has now resorted to begging his supporters to show up and protest outside the courthouse. Last week he only had about 50 supporters that actually showed up on the first day, and that number appeared to shrink as the week went on. And with other protestors (on other issues) flooding Manhattan, Trump is left looking like a lost cause.
And during an interview on Fox News on Sunday, Marjorie Taylor Greene was asked by host Maria Bartiromo to explain her plan for ousting House Speaker Mike Johnson, along with her rationale for doing so. When Greene stumbled, Bartiromo went to break to give Greene some time to gather her thoughts, but even that didn't help. Bartiromo appeared to get annoyed at that point and was forced to call out Greene for not actually having a plan and just seeming to want to cause chaos.
Finally, rumors have been swirling since last week that Donald Trump is having trouble controlling his flatulence during his criminal trial, with several people reporting that they've heard of a "putrid smell" permeating through the courtroom. While these rumors have not been confirmed, what has been confirmed is that Trump's legal team spent $700 at a nearby McDonald's during lunch on Thursday, and that amount of fast food is certainly enough to give anyone a little gas.
