Trump admin calls for states to remove 'political messaging' like Pride crosswalks from roads

Third party will solve the electoral college issue. They will take away votes from each party making close races swing to one or other side. If Musk becomes the leader of America party he can easily draw 20% of voters from each party and with his wealth can elect his candidates with bankrolls to face the candidate of each party.Comment -
Republican Party - no
Democrat Party - no
American Party - no
MAGA - YES.Comment -
Elon Musk says he's formed the 'America Party.' Mark Cuban and Anthony Scaramucci are interested.- Elon Musk said on X that he's forming a new political party amid a feud with President Donald Trump.
- He said it would be called the "America Party."
- Musk has publicly criticized Trump's spending bill, which the president signed on July 4.
Elon Musk declared on X the formation of a new political party amid his ongoing feud with President Donald Trump over the "Big Beautiful Bill."
"Today, the America Party is formed to give you back your freedom," Musk wrote in an X post on Saturday afternoon.
The Tesla CEO had said Friday on his social media platform that one way the new party could work is to focus on winning just a handful of Senate seats and House districts that could serve as the "deciding vote" on "contentious laws," given the "razor-thin legislative margins" in Congress.
When asked for comment on Musk's new party, the White House said Trump had "unified" the Republican Party.
"Having earned the largest share of votes for a Republican presidential nominee and secured majorities in the House and Senate, and with his historic domestic policy agenda swiftly and successfully passed through One Big Beautiful Bill with resounding GOP support, the party is stronger than ever and in lockstep with the Trump agenda," Harrison Fields, the principal White House deputy press secretary, told BI over email.
Fellow billionaire Mark Cuban, meanwhile, appeared — not for the first time — to support the idea of a new party, replying to Musk's Saturday announcement with a series of fireworks and fire emojis.
"I work with @voterchoice. They will help you get on ballots. That is their mission," Cuban wrote in another post.
SkyBridge Capital founder Anthony Scaramucci, who briefly served as White House communications director under Trump in 2017, also appeared interested.
"I would like to meet to discuss. My DMs are open," he replied to Musk.
Musk's "America Party" announcement came after he conducted a July 4 poll, asking X users if they want "independence" from the two-party system. About 65% of the 1.25 million participants voted "Yes."
Musk, who was a staunch supporter of Trump's 2024 reelection bid, has been publicly critical of the president's "Big Beautiful Bill," a sweeping domestic policy bill that includes extensive tax cuts and could add more than $3 trillion to the national debt, according to the Congressional Budget Office.

Musk has characterized the bill on X as a form of "debt slavery."
Just days after stepping away from his work at the White House DOGE Office, which was tasked with cutting spending and reducing the deficit, Musk in June called the legislation a "massive, outrageous, pork-filled Congressional spending bill."
Musk then proposed the idea of forming a new political party that represents the "80% in the middle."
Musk's repeated attacks on the bill led to a spectacular public fallout between him and the president. Trump even suggested that his office would look into possibly deporting Musk, a South African immigrant.

educated guess.
I doubt it will even take off and be a factor, but ya never know. If it is better than the 2 establishment parties before Trump showed everyone how useless and corrupt they have been, then I will see. I will judge them fairly as I always do. Having Mark Cuban and Anthony Scaramucci involved is laughable.
Trump changed politics forever. He destroyed both of parties. Got rid of the useless republicans like Ryan and Romney, and the dems are a disaster who ran a corrupt dementia patient and then a cuckling drunk. No serious person can support the democrats. There is only Maga now.
In 2028 the country will be so much better, the Republicans will win again. Unless the dems steal it again.Comment -
Truthfully. A third party seems good now that the other two are fractured. Can you imagine where a party votes 100% with a guy like Biden in office and allowing his destructive policies.?. They all stuck with him and still stand against even good policies introduced by the other side.
A third party give's another view, but it doe's not necessarily have to be better for the country. We still need unity and civility across the isle. Which the left has abandoned since Hillary Clinton lost.

Texas lawmakers failed to pass a bill to improve local disaster warning systems this year
The measure, House Bill 13, would have created a new government council to establish the emergency response plan and administer the grant program, both of which would have been aimed at facilitating better communication between first responders. The bill also called for the plan to include “the use of outdoor warning sirens,” like those used in tornado-prone Texas counties, and develop new “emergency alert systems.”
Authored by Rep. Ken King, R-Canadian, the legislation was inspired by last year’s devastating wildfires in the Panhandle, where more than 1 million acres burned — including part of King’s property — and three people died. The bill failed in the Texas Senate, prompting newfound questions about whether lawmakers should have done more to help rural, cash-strapped counties stave off the deadly effects of future natural disasters.

"""Even if it had passed, it would not have gone into effect until Sept. 1, after the Hill Country flooding.""""
What are we talking about here? All I'm learning is how desperate Democrats are to pin a disaster on the White House.

They've been doing it for decades. Hurricane Katrina wouldn't have formed if Al Gore had been president, the Sumatran tidal wave wouldn't have happened if Al Gore was president. The banks that went under in 2022 wouldn't have gone under had Trump not exempted them from the Fed's stress test, even though the stress test didn't test for what caused the banks to go under. The East Palestine train derailment wouldn't have happened if Trump didn't deregulate the trains, even though the head of the NTSB said the train that derailed wouldn't have been impacted.
The cuts they're now screaming about cuts that wouldn't have gone into effect until October for FY 2026.

Most mainstream press accounts have largely ignored one obvious source of the Los Angeles riots – namely, that the Biden administration released more than enough illegal aliens into this country to populate a wholly new Los Angeles. In the aftermath of those riots, it’s an appropriate time to ask this question: How many illegal aliens did the Biden administration actually let into the United States? Read More

Dude. The Texas Tribune is not Democrat. It's a non-profit news organization. Means they don't make money for reporting the news.
Get your head out of your ass and read the article.

Why did Epstein “kill himself” if he was an innocent man with $577 million, zero clients, and no evidence against him?
You don’t go from “it’s on my desk” to “it doesn’t exist” unless someone powerful is on that list.
Spoiler: It’s not Biden.
If Epstein never kept a list, then what was all this about?

It was all a lie, MAGA.
Your tips and overtime are still taxed.
But if you buy a private jet you get 100% tax write off.
No trade deals have been made.
No wars ended.
No Epstein list published.
Trump lied about everything.Comment -
