This is performance. The Administration is purposely being awful to cover up their incompetence. They said they would deport 16 million illegal immigrants. At this rate it would take another 40 years. The ugliness is to hide their incompetence.

Casar: At the end of the day, this is about taking your hard-earned money and giving it to themselves—or funneling it to their friends. That’s all this is about.

Not one reporter asked about the Executive Orders targeting Chris Krebs & Miles Taylor during today’s Cabinet press conference. Not one. A president using DOJ to punish those who spoke out? That’s banana republic territory. I waited. The question never came. Why? Has the fear already taken hold?

I’ve seen so many different versions of this, but I like this one best. This is exactly what Trump is doing, over and over and his mob of morons keeps screaming “Art of the deal!!!” every damn time.

The tariff debacle has no more to do with wanting to return manufacturing to the US than his attacks on universities have to do with sincere concerns about antisemitism. These are mere pretexts to hide darker agendas of greed and grievance, power plays and corruption.

He literally tweeted: This is a great time to BUY! Just hours ago. And then he paused tariffs. He’s literally committing crimes in front of the entire world. 😳
