If Donald Trump can dismiss the murder and dismemberment of an American journalist by saying "things happen. that guy was very controversial and a lot of people didn't like him." Then I should be able to say the same thing about that piece of shit Charlie Kirk.

I also asked her if Dems should file impeachment articles. Here's the key exchange on all this:

Here you have Sec Lutnick as Commerce Secretary and his oldest son, Kyle Lutnick, involved in exactly the same AI data center deal. Dad as government official. Son as financial deal maker--earning the family-controlled company millions in fees. Both this summer.
