Let's defend democracy by giving the Democratic Party our proxy. Why bother to choose our own House Representatives when the Dems already know what's best?

It hurts? You voted for him, and there is 100% chance you will vote for MAGA Republicans in the next election because you believe stupid shit like Haitians are eating cats and dogs and Portland is war ravaged. Put your vote where your mouth is in the next election.

The questions remain. Why did White House border czar Tom Homan accept a bag with $50,000 cash? Who was it from? What was promised in exchange? Why did the DOJ close the investigation on instructions from the White House? How does bribery and corruption make America great?

Pressed on Tom Homan controversy, JD Vance and Pam Bondi struggle to answer

The attorney general and the vice president confronted straightforward questions about the scandal surrounding the border czar. Both Republicans struggled.
