in a sane word it would be considered wildly inappropriate for the Deputy FBI Director to go on Fox & Friends and cut WWE-style promos on sitting governors

Prime example of white privilege in plain sight.

Black kids get called adults to justify blame, while white adults get called “kids” to excuse their hate. They’re not boys and girls, they’re grown-ass men and women, and the receipts are in writing.

The so-called Homeland Security Secretary is a corrupt and malignant fraud.

This video she sanctioned is fake.

Manipulated by cowards who hide behind masks while violating the law.

There’s nothing more American than saying, NO KINGS‼️

REPUBLICANS ABOUT JANUARY 6: “A gathering of tourists.”

REPUBLICANS ABOUT THE NO KINGS PROTEST: “A hate rally.”

They praise the mob and condemn the movement. You see what they’re doing, right?

It’s so funny that for the past week republicans have all been like “the only people out there are gonna be Hamas.” Everyone in this crowd is signed up for Kohl’s rewards points.

To be unaware of one thing you don't wish to talk about is convenient.

To be unaware of *everything* you don't wish to talk about is either lying or incompetence. Or both.

Q: What's your message to the 170 US citizens who have been detained by ICE? About 20 of them are children

MIKE JOHNSON: I don't know what you're talking about with the children. I haven't seen that so I'm not going to comment on it.

Unreal. “But when asked who chose to hold the meeting in Budapest, a location with great historical significance… White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt simply told the HuffPost, “Your mom did.”
Her playground-level response was also echoed by White House Communications Director Steven Cheung”

The administration responds to legitimate requests for information with crass, playground-level retorts.

Or he's sitting on illegally withheld funds from blue state economies that he doles out to loyalists states and governors.

By no objective measure does the economy indicate "boom" maybe "pop" or "fizzle."

If it were that easy, it would've been done decades ago. Big Pharma spends millions buying politicians to block reform. So when they suddenly claim a 95% price cut, it's not a miracle-it's marketing. Real reform means breaking their grip, not staging press events. “Miracles are for churches.
