The confirmation of Kash Patel as FBI director sends a clear and simple message to MAGA opponents: Don't stand near any open windows. In fact, probably best to avoid upper storeys altogether.

"Most Americans don’t want to believe that their government is taking life­saving medicine away from sick people in Africa, or betraying Afghans who sacrificed for this country" But it is. www.theatlantic.com/magazine/arc...

wearing sunglasses inside and following an event where he at times had a hard time speaking coherently, Elon Musk walks off the CPAC stage waving around a chain saw. this is the guy currently running our government. Congrats, America!

MAGA is big mad Canada won the 4 Nations game. #ETTD 🍿

People need to understand this: Trump did not leave office willingly the first time. If his health holds up, he will not leave office willingly this time. He is not joking about serving more than two terms.
