She's only 27, and already has a distinguished history of working for assholes: Trump, Elise Stefanik, Fox.
Her $$$ husband is 30 years older than her.
This woman is the devil's messenger. Talk about forked tongue. I wonder how many of her sorority sisters still talk in therapy about the trauma this one inflicted on them. Drumpf loves his vengeful bullying types.
The Dem leadership has no problem obstructing when one of their own is in office. But the moment a republican takes office they just assume the position and forget everything they know about how to be an elected official in the US.
But when words on a page don't mean what they actually mean, but are left to interpretation and all-out guesswork, this is what happens. It's the product of a mobius mind.
Sadly they wonʻt because they canʻt jeopardize their "access." They will lose their credentials if they call her out. Then sheʻll fill the room with more Breitbart clones.
We are watching what happens when tech oligarchs wield full control of government. They can target anyone with digital assets for blackmail or threats.
It clarifies that they are just as cruel as we all knew they were in the first place.
Please band together the few level headed Republicans left and stop this disaster because if not — I predict 1929-era bread lines by July. For the whole country, not just people who benefit from these programs.
I'm a Biology major, but there's something about poor spelling that just hits me in the 'nads. You can learn math by rote, but spelling requires reading, which in turn, requires a deeper level of commitment and understanding.
I miss my spelling days. Have a clotting disorder and had a stroke a few years ago. It affected my speech center only. I depend on spell check now. I used to be a very proficient speller. And I do understand your sentiment, but bear with those of us who cringe every time we misspell a word.
Clotting disorders suck. I got diagnosed with ITP this summer. The treatments -that didn’t work -alone left me with word recall issues and I forget what I’m saying mid sentence.
Oh my! I hope you do okay with it. I've heard the treatments are a bear. We don't know what condition causes my clots - been tested for every known clotting disorder and negative for them all. Hematologist said I may have a condition named after me one day when they do discover it. Yeehaw, what
every woman wants - a disorder named after her. I've been getting DVTs and PEs since 1983 (age 17). My mom died at 29 from clots (exacerbated by DV) and her mom died at 25 (exacerbated by pregnancy - died giving birth to my mom). They absolutely do suck.
She's saying it's the memo literally that needed rescinding, not the act being pursued, so they rescinded the actual printed memo. Well this should certainly clear up any confusion that "the court has created".
"We got the bubble headed bleach blonde who comes on at five. She can tell you 'bout the plane crash with a gleam in her eye"....... Don Henley..... Dirty Laundry.
The more earthy way to say that: "If you can't dazzle them with brilliance, baffle them with bullshit." And the whole tRump Goon Squad are chock-full of BS.
I’m not gonna fall into the young dumb and blonde thirst trap but I’ll fall into the “dangerously under qualified obviously there because she tested well with young men ages 18-35, this isn’t a joke even though they think this is” trap
I once had to train an intern fresh from a Florida College.
Intern: Have any of u ever met anyone famous?
Me: I've met Jimmy Carter
Intern: Whose that?
🥴😃😝
That’s idiocracy. Although I wasn’t born or was very young during these presidents terms, I knew who Nixon, Truman, Eisenhower, FDR, and Roosevelt were by the time I was in my 20s. Everyone did. These kids are dummied down
My kid just brought home state test scores. 90th% score for a third grader is the same as 50th% for a senior. So an average highschool grad basically has the same reading and math ability as a smart 9yr old.
Any confusion lies in why your boss thinks its a good idea to ignore the budgetary duties given to Congress by the constitution and affirmed by the Impoundment Control Act. With razor-thin margins, particularly in the House, maybe usurping legislators' power might not be in his best interest.
And this tweet is the tweet they are using to argue why all the cases against trump have merit. Thanks for your incompetence kare-bear! The legal proceedings will continue against you and trump
Can someone make a meter indicating the level of constitutional crisis we are at? Cause it look like thar press release means the Executive Branch does not obey either Congress or the Judiciary.
You're a goddamn senator Tina. You have lawyers and parliamentarians and the GAO and the congressional budget office and countless interns at your beck and call. Figure it out, and then communicate something useful and actionable to Americans instead of shitposting.
Because the goal is confusion, chaos, destruction, undoing, noise. Not to do, or clarify, or improve, or implement. Why? For cruelty sake, simply that.
What experience does this lightweight have for the job she holds? Did she audition for a role on the reality show now masquerading as the U.S. government?
good to see he hired a press secretary that hasn’t a clue how to use punctuation…..continues his long tradition of putting morons in the job of communicating to the public and press….
Karoline Leavitt is not qualified to the White House press secretary. She is lying to the American people about the policies and actions of the new presidential administration. She needs to be honest about the incompetence of the new president.
I think she needs to step up to a more mature platform for communication. This is just gibberish. It just means "No, we didn't. We didn't. You're all wrong. We won."
Since When Does Trump’s Gov. Have To Shutdown All Gov. Funding Programs To Review Spending? Funding/Spending That Only Congress Has AUTHORITY TO ENACT! The FACT That GOPs Congress Allowed And Support This Is As Lawless As Trump! It’s A Dereliction Of GOPs Oath And Duty To Serve Americans!
The president doesn't get to set the budget, that is Congress' job. I see this administration is not different than the first one, alternative facts yet again.
With the EO from this week rescinded, it would revert back to the first order last week. That order last week did not freeze funding. If put a pause on Federal communication/activity; but did not freeze funding. So, what the hell is she talking about? Once again, they are causing mass chaos!
She has no idea what she is talking about… Project 2025 people have no idea what is happening…. NO ONE knows what the fuck is going on…please don’t let the Dems help them.. bc someone does know how to fix this… If they must please let them humiliate and call out how stupid these people are..
Does anyone in dirty don’s administration know how to spell? Or even reread what they write prior to hitting send? I feel like all those Ivy League schools should be embarrassed to have rewarded these clowns with degrees.
The Republican Party is now led by Nazis. There is only one rule now-
Never help the Nazis
Never vote to confirm their people. Never allow unanimous consent. Never. Never. Never. There is no bipartisan anymore. There is just helping Nazis or not helping Nazis.
They’ve gotten worse over time though. I remember George Bush Sr saying that there was no place in the Republican Party for David Duke. He wasn’t actively trying to destroy the government. He left quietly and decently when he lost reelection.
ROFL. This is the stupidest shit I've heard yet. "The court blocked the memo. Let's just make people do it, but don't write it down. That will get around the injunction right? I mean it's not documented anymore so it should be fine." The act itself is still illegal you dumb shits.
I recall prior to the election, one of PJ25’s architects was being interviewed and stated there will be some court challenges and they’ll probably lose but there is no mechanism for the courts to enforce their rulings therefore, they will proceed with their actions.
I want as few Scaramuccis as possible for every single one of his appointments. I don't care how many Nazis he gets confirmed for our government. They need to be roundly rejected by the public until they are forced to resign. We will cut them down one at a time until they're gone.
Fight. The. Now. They roll over when they meet real pushback. They expect Dems to roll over like they usually do, so break that expectation with full force! We can't just sit and tweet, we need concrete action
Hi Rachael I have followed you since you came on after Keith Olbermann.
Just want to say I love how Chris Jansing muted Felon while interviewing guests.
Also appreciated the heads up when she was going to turn the audio back on so I could mute him myself!
More gobbledygook by the folks who are called press secs.
🟠’s have a long, ridic history of just blablablabaing & moving on to the next ?? or post. Somehow that’s become the norm.
Not taking a live presser, instead posting online.
Way easier than doing it live and having to make more stuff up. 🤷♀️
JUNTA GOVT. I DEMAND A JUNTA GOVT TO TAKE CONTROL, JAIL TRUMP AND GIVE IT BACK TO KAMALA. I DONT GIVE A FUCK IF IT'S LEGAL. FUCK THIS. FUCK TRUMP. FUCK MUSK. I DEMAND THIS.
Shut down the senate. Revoke unanimous consent and make them grind through every procedural hurdle on every motion and vote. Your job is obstruction. Do it.
Do it. Obstruct all day, every day. If they complain, invoke the old anti-drug psa where the dad asks where the kid learned about drugs, and the kid replies, "From YOU, dad! I learned it from watching you!"
Exactly. This is not a normal "I don't agree with your (reasonably sane and legal) position" - this "we are violating the letter and spirit of the Constitution, what are you gonna do about it? Nyaaah!"
Right?! They keep voting to confirm the majority of his appointments with barely a whimper! I have not forgotten Ted Cruz reading Dr.Suess for hours to be an obnoxious filibustrer. 😑
I’m tired of people saying they intended this.. they didn’t they aren’t that smart.. they don’t understand what they are doing.. so by doing “it” it is fucking up other things.. so yes.. making them go through it all… the are fuck ups and this is the first of many..
Don't bother telling them to uphold their oaths, they've already failed that EPICALLY
Instead tell them their time as our employees is coming to an end.
We will not pay taxes or pay back any federal loans when we know damn well it's going to putin/billionaires. We will no longer fund fascism
Retired congressional staffer and lobbyist offering a clarification -- unanimous consent in the Senate is the process that allows Senators to object and set up such procedural hurdles. Rather than "revoke," tell people to "use it to object and obstruct." Put another way, "McConnel them."
Chuck Schumer doesn’t do obstruction. Chuck is telling dem senators it’s ok to vote for trumps nominees. He says he can’t force dem senators to oppose every trump nominee. My question, WHY?
(Guess I should have made it more clear I was being rhetorical here. Yea, I am aware of all the factors behind the Dems “being like this”. I’m simply going to do whatever I can to prod them into being better.)
I've been firmly in the "we need to be better or what's the point," camp for a long time but even I'm sick of them not even pretending to play hardball.
At least give them like 40% GOP tactics and then call them out when they cry foul.
Bringing a pen to a gunfight is not working. They can believe in lofty ideals all they want but they need power to implement. The GOP figured this out 25 years ago.
The Dems need to stop “being like this”. It’s time. We’ve all held out long enough. We have all tried to do the right thing in the right way. It isn’t working.The country isn’t just losing, it’s imploding. And it is only January.
My son pointed out that the political parties of today are not what they were… And Democrats need to put on the gloves and get in there and fight doesn’t do any good to go high when they go low if going low wins
Exactly. We need politicians offering alternatives that make life better for people. But that means criticizing their owners, so that won't happen. Instead, it will be more of "look how crazy/dangerous/stupid Trump is, give us money!"
because they’re cowards. Also, they like the money they get from all the insiders stock trading. Most of them really don’t have any other purpose except to stay elected and get free healthcare.
So, you may be hung up on the first bit of my post and not the rest of it. No, they cannot just stop everything, but they can make everything take waaaay longer than it otherwise might. All kinds of procedural pedantry is available to just be very annoying and slow everything down.
I thought when Biden got the WH, he'd hire an AG who'd quickly prosecute the leaders who attempted the coup, but Biden instead hired Garland, who did NOTHING. ALL Dem leaders upheld the traitor leaders as fit to lead, & treated Trump as a fit candidate. Yet, people praised Biden & Harris. Pathetic.
1/2 It’s easier for the fascist do it because they have the media bought and simping for them all of the time. If Dems could get a fair shake and context for their remarks on TV all the time maybe they would feel bolder.
2/2 And and before anyone says it, yes I know there’s a game you can still play and and declined to play it way too often. But don’t act like a media owned by an oligarchy won’t misrepresent or omit what you say.
Because we have been in a slide toward fascism for decades, and most Democrats are as complicit as the Republicans (see: Laken Reilly, KOSA, and other right-wing legislation with bipartisan support).
This is why many Democratic voters didn’t even vote. We burn so much energy and money to get them into office and then they either refuse to listen (genocide) or refuse to act (Trump’s dismantling of the country).
This party is done with and it’s time for something else to replace it.
Good luck bringing dem voters inline with this thinking. I agree with you, but you have a lot of dem voters giving their elected reps a free pass if they have a D in front of their name. This was in another thread from this senator and is indicative of a lot of comments I see on here.
They should be filibustering every unfit nominee put in front of them. And then be willing to go in front of cameras and explain why. They should be on the offensive. Instead, it's like they think it'll be okay, that voters will just handle it in 2 years. This country won't survive 2 years of this.
It’s easy to blame voters for not voting. But the blame lies with the leadership of the party putting up candidates that aren’t popular or energizing the base.
Well who is going to pay for staying home because Harris wasn’t good enough? better than Trump wasn’t enough?
If you can’t bother to vote against a Traitor and a Felon, let alone all the other awful things that POS is? I guess you deserve the government you get.
But there are so many little procedural hurdles that even a single senator can throw up. Tubberville single handedly blocked military promotions for nearly Biden’s whole term. I’m just asking them to play hardball. Slow it all down.
Thank you for saying this Senator Smith. We need your support right now more than ever. Continue calling them out and pushing back on behalf of our great state of Minnesota please.
The grassroots aren't going to let Senate Dems complain with no action. Your job is to:
1️⃣ Oppose all nominees until OMB reverses the freeze.
2️⃣ Deny Unanimous Consent to slow Senate proceedings.
3️⃣ Vote no on all Cloture.
4️⃣ Force Quorum Calls at every opportunity.
Who’s going to impeach him? The democrats want unity because they’re cowards and besides there is not one republican who will vote to impeach trump because they’re more afraid than the democrats.
She is. She a failed Republican candidate for Congress in New Hampshire (my home state) who got soundly trounced by Chris Pappas in NH1. She is a bubble headed bleach blonde bimbo.
She lied in her first presser many times after saying she wouldn’t .
Will anyone in the media call out her lies each day or keep a tracker on the tv screen when she’s on
Seems to me Trump does the big signing then the shit hits the fan and all his little minions are left to work against public opinion and legalities in order to bring into play as much shit as they can to give the matter some semblance of being a done deal. All so he can tick a box and say: Fixed it.
Funding is decided by Congressional law. There is no legal basis for "freezing funds." If Mr. Trump wants to change how the federal government spends money - he needs to do it the old fashioned way. Get the Congress to pass laws in alignment with his agenda. The Purse belongs to the People.
As is meant to do. Clarify nothing. Obfuscation, chaos, distraction, the new parlour game of the day for the new administration. Welcome to la-la land.
He has never cared about people. Dismantle the government and steal tax payer dollars for his own pocket. Last time he was in office he increased the deficit by 8.4 trillion.
Always more money is his end game. Cut funding more money for them, more people die more money for them. Revenge and greed are his only driving forces. That is all there is nothing else.
To bring back slavery. To kill has many that disagree with him. To have total control of the government debt ceiling. Another words he wants to decide who if any get federal funding. He definitely wants only white Nazi to be in control. All while golfing every day.
The end game is to destroy our government so that people can be enslaved by the techbro class and other oligarchs. VP's biggest influencer wants GOP to destroy the Constitution and install a dictator.
It’s a loop. He wants to hurt people because he wants to hurt people. The more people he hurts the more justified he feels about hurting more people, until he’s finally stopped.

Republicans did this.
Republicans did this.
Sewing chaos and confusion and exhibiting rampant incompetence is the GOP brand.
Thanks.
Her $$$ husband is 30 years older than her.
It's rescinded but still being enforced???🤔
She can't even make her lies believable.
The "journalists" in the room need to GROW A PAIR and call out her lies as she says them.
What word stands out to you on this memo?
Clearly Kay-Lie v. 2.0 can't
Do not subscribe or watch MSM.
I want the Press to GROW A SET OF BALLS.
Please band together the few level headed Republicans left and stop this disaster because if not — I predict 1929-era bread lines by July. For the whole country, not just people who benefit from these programs.
Fucking poorly educated hillbilly.
“Complicit”
Words from the last Trump administration
Have a nice day. (:
She's a double-bubble.
They certainly didn't choose the best candidates for his cabinet.
Intern: Have any of u ever met anyone famous?
Me: I've met Jimmy Carter
Intern: Whose that?
🥴😃😝
Trump LOST the 2020 election.
Trump IS a convicted felon.
Trump OWES millions to E Jean Carroll and NY.
Trump KNEW about Project 2025.
Never help the Nazis
Never vote to confirm their people. Never allow unanimous consent. Never. Never. Never. There is no bipartisan anymore. There is just helping Nazis or not helping Nazis.
Never help the Nazis
They're getting more open about who they are, but this is who they've always been. It'll continue to get worse.
How long do you plan to hang out on a limb?
Elon is insane. Even Bill Gates knows it.
That dog won't hunt.
Get used to it and get over yourself.
But this shows they know nothing about governing. Period
Just want to say I love how Chris Jansing muted Felon while interviewing guests.

Now bring on the llamas!!!
🔴 Republican's: -2 (+24)
🔵 Democrat's: -26
New high for Republicans

Because we’ve never done it this way….. 🥴
At least give them like 40% GOP tactics and then call them out when they cry foul.
This party is done with and it’s time for something else to replace it.
All the talk about Dems needing to stand for something and don’t just be against The Felon
Being against the Felon should have been all that was required! This was pass/fail and we failed.
But when we look at why people aren’t motivated to vote it’s really down to the Democratic Party’s leadership.
Why were Trump voters fired up?
Because they like their candidate.
Meanwhile DNC runs on “at least it isn’t Trump”.
If you can’t bother to vote against a Traitor and a Felon, let alone all the other awful things that POS is? I guess you deserve the government you get.
The way I found out quorums really aren't a thing was from blocking SCOTUS noms in the first term
Please begin floating in all press appearances that it looks like it is time to invoke the 25th Amendment
And only the memo itself, the piece of paper, is rescinded, the actual instructions contained in the memo are still in effect.
Either I've gone guru or this is just sloppy-time.
Get off the fucking fence folks....
1️⃣ Oppose all nominees until OMB reverses the freeze.
2️⃣ Deny Unanimous Consent to slow Senate proceedings.
3️⃣ Vote no on all Cloture.
4️⃣ Force Quorum Calls at every opportunity.
People want ACTION.
And do does Kristi Noem! I just realized!
Qualified manages the department effectively to accomplish its mission;
Unqualified mismanages the department such that it is unable to accomplish its mission;
Anti-qualified destroys the department without regard to mission.
Musk will not tolerate anyone who is more intelligent than him. That's anyone with a two digit IQ.
Sadly that's why he bought the presidency for Trump and chose every halfwit for every post available.
It’s a simple question.
Will anyone in the media call out her lies each day or keep a tracker on the tv screen when she’s on
sadly, that can only be done by the press
I wasn’t aware that King Elon ever read Project 25. Impressive.
I believe it's been the plan from the beginning.
