Democrats need to put the same extended media consuming outrage into the Young Republican Nazi chats as Republicans mustered for Biden going for ice cream.

Now he must fear AZ AG lawsuit, which she will win. Let's get that on the Shadow Docket. Does he honestly believe he can drag it that along? It's absolutely farcical. 😂

Gianni has already told him he doesn't control FIFA. This is all performative BS. He doesn't have the authority, but I wouldn't blame either FIFA, nor the Olympic Committee from pulling out at this point and just going to some other country that is already set up for it. Go back to the last hosts.

Tim Walz: "The biggest myth is that this guy understands business. He's an absolute abject failure at business ... the irony is calling Democrats socialists when I am begging for free markets here to allow capitalism to work. Donald Trump is the one with government interference."

These people don't do the work. They don't know, nor do they care what is going on. They all need to be fired. They are performative actors trying to keep their triple digit salaries and the best free health care in the nation. Making a shit ton of $$ on insider trading.

COLLINS: The Dept of Energy just canceled $1b for a hydrogen hub that covers Montana. Is that taking away good-paying jobs?

SHEEHY: Of course it is. We want govt to be open

C: But the Energy Secretary says he would've pulled that funding even if govt was open

S: ... Well, that's unfortunate

OMG I'm dead! I had forgotten that one, but we could bring back Kimberly for the original version? Oh, but she's been exiled to Greece, and never confirmed. Sad to waste to such talent to the new wasp GF. 😂

We lost any semblance of trust during Trump's first term. Democrats suck at the game. They only get elected after a Republican sinks the country like the Titanic. They are horrible at messaging. The only reason people vote for them is because they lost all their $$ with the last GOP conman.

The ridiculous excuse Johnson gave for NOT swearing her in occurred today when Congress printed out her official certificate (suitable for framing) but the facts remain any Judge can swear her in, and I would prefer Ketanji Brown.

"She doesn't look like a Greeley?" It won't be long before yeven white folks will have to carry their papers because they know you are a registered Democrat. The United States of America has never done this, and was boastful of the fact we have never done it.

The entire incident is infuriating and terrifying. She’s a Latina woman who was working a service job. On her way home late at night, with her headphones in, she was detained for an hour by masked federal agents who wouldn’t give her their names.

Maria Greeley, 44, had just finished working a double shift at the Beach Bar on Ohio Street
earlier this month when she said she was surrounded by three federal agents who grabbed her, forced her hands behind her back and zip tied her.
Headphones in, Greeley had been focused on getting home to her two dogs for a walk.
Instead, she said she was detained by masked agents who did not answer when she asked for names. They questioned her for an hour, she said.

We are celebrating our independence from a King that made us a world power 250 years ago. A leader in Democracy worldwide. Now the enemy is within us. The cancer has been detected and we must remove it before it metastases. The 1st. procedure is to let your neighbors know you are going, or support.

Was it the smell of the diaper, or smell of a sexual predator all women know? Maybe it was just classic dumbass recognition. We've all been there. Some of us have difficult controlling our facial expressions. 😂

The thing about this guy is somehow managed to make it thru Parris Island, but they knew he would never be a real Marine so he wrote News Releases then he used your tax dollars, and his ass kissing skills to get into Yale. Learns nothing, but writes a book insulting all Appalachia. Just another con

So, if Bessent, and few of his other "smartest guys" in the room then who convinced them to invest in such a risky venture that is Argentina? And if they did, shouldn't someone question where they really are the smartest guys in the room, after all?
