You have to be really in the weeds to get what this budget vote was about, but it means absolutely nothing. It’s all about establishing the final number for reconciliation, which is why everyone caved except Massie. The empty promises they got will never happen, so actual spines to vote No TBD.

Strange of Sean Hannity to basically call himself a DEI hire on his show right now.

Dana Perino and Megyn Kelly seem to both be on the same sketchy supplement that causes them to fly into a furious rage at the drop of a hat. Really weird. I miss the gold old days of The 5 where she had to sheepishly look downwards or shoot death eye stares when her cohosts were slamming W.

It's hilarious to see Trump goverment officials acting shocked at the ancient IT infrastructure running throughout the government as if it wasn't the republicans that blocked any upgrades to these agencies over the years.

People keep expecting Trump voters to “wake up” as promises go unkept or bad things happen. Maybe a million or three will. But Jordan Klepper has done the research. When pressed with indisputable evidence that Trump has failed them, the response is always, “I don’t care. I love him and hate the Ds.”

I think Fetterman is fine and means well, but bro you are low a couple of quarts of oil going around saying “the D brand is toxic” and “we got shellacked,” when the vote does not support that conclusion. Apathetic? Unmotivated? Maybe.

So some people say the govt is bad at everything. One would think they believe private entities can track and make govt data easier to digest and more accessible. So naturally, the govt is canceling those services because maybe they think their govt can do it better. Or maybe not do it at all

Yes and no. Trump couldn’t drag senate candidates to a win with his minute margin of victory. Political messaging needs to evolve like Geico revolutionized insurance advertising. Multiple campaigns running at once with strategies aimed at true Ds, gettable moderates, and the mass of no-informations.

Trump says disaster relief is dependent upon voter ID and bringing all the water down from the north to LA. And also bringing the water to the farmers in central California. 🤷‍♂️

It’s interesting that Dana Perino has gone full Megyn Kelly recently. I remember when she used to silently give her coworkers the stare of death when they’d parrot Trump ripping on how awful W was. You’d think her loyalty to him would temper her Trumpiness, but she’s basically Judge Jeanine now.

I recall republicans wanted to herd the most expensive people to insure into high-risk pools so that “regular folks” didn’t have to pay higher premiums to pay for their expensive treatment. I haven’t heard them say multimillion dollar homeowners in disaster zones should be isolated in the same way

I remember 8 years ago thinking, “Well, at least now that they’ve won, they won’t be so angry all the time.” But outrage is such an important part of their identity, they actually rage all the more.

There’s no point in asking Trump, but maybe someone in the media could ask Vance or these Congressional leaders, “What exactly are the numbers that will prove you’ve turned the ‘horrible’ economy around? GDP? Year-over-year inflation? Unemployment? Job growth?” And then call out the current number.

Trump loves suck-ups, famous people who claim to like him, and people willing to foot his bills. Probably in that order. That makes most of these folks number ones and Elon a number three.

I want to know who wrote Trump’s Panama Canal rant. It’s grammatically correct and uses the phrase “It was not given for the benefit of others, but merely as a token of cooperation with us and Panama.” Give me a break.

I mean, maybe the utter shamelessness of Trump and his ilk demanding dems give him a debt ceiling lift after their 14 years of apocalyptic nonsense is kinda ballsy, but I gotta think Hakeem looked Johnson in the eyes like Lando and said, “You’ve got a lot of guts coming here, after what you pulled.”

So Trump elevated a billionaire way way way way richer than him with a social media platform way way way way bigger than his, and suddenly that dude is affecting policy, while the president-elect looks insignificant? Shocking.

We’re in for a doozy with Karoline Leavitt as Trump’s press sec. Trump gave a ramble for 20 minutes and took questions for about 35, but she tells Hannity it was “a nearly 90-minute press conference.”

Fox is alive with delight over Trump telling MTP he won’t order DOJ or FBI to investigate the Bidens or other enemies. I remember when they said Obama could communicate telepathically with Eric Holder to bend the DOJ to his will, even though that he clearly allowed it to operate independently
