I’m not sure I understand how taking out his top political donor can be considered a “win” for Trump…

It’s ok because he’s a Republican and rules, laws and norms only apply to Democrats.

Republicans planning to waste more of our tax dollars on partisan witch hunts.

Fuck that! Republicans don’t think the law should ever apply to themselves, but they are happy to use the against everyone else.

Chip Roy is a radical who votes against everything. I wish the newspapers would quit trying to normalize his extremism.

Why? Because the law does not apply to MAGA Republicans. The “Rule of Law” is a weapon that Republicans use against their political adversaries.

There is no such thing as private prisons. How would that even work? Are they going to charge the inmates rent? No, they are run 100 percent with government money. The only way they can make a profit is to cut corners and ignore regulations set for federal prisons.

Education. These are the 3-alarm fires, not as bad as the top tier, but still pretty horrific. If we can at least stop the top tier it would save lives and keep our nation secure while we deal with the longer term problem of having a demented conman in the White House for the next four years.

Trump's indifference to good governance. The ones we must be most concerned with are the 5-alarm fires who are bad for the whole country. AG nominee Matt Gaetz was so awful that he has already flamed out and Defense nominee Pete Hegseth is currently on fire and may not last much longer.

Zelensky is just sucking up to Trump now that he won. Flattery is the currency of the new administration.
