Every time I think thing can’t get worse, the appointees can’t get worse, Trump says ‘hold my beer.’ I am stunned, even by Trump standards, that Dan Bongino, a man even Fox got rid of, is now the new deputy director of the FBI. We are so effed.

We’re cooked! Dan Bongino, Kash Patel & Pam Bondi running ‘justice’ is like putting arsonists in charge of the fire department. Bongino’s a racist conspiracy hack, Patel’s a Trump flunky and a conspiracy hack, and Bondi sold out Florida for a check. This isn’t law & order—it’s a MAGA police state.

We need to save some smoke for voters. Trump was very clear during the campaign that he planned to settle Russia's war on Ukraine quickly and on Putin's terms. 77 million people voted for him anyway, and now he's following through. American voters sold out our ally.

Musk is POTUS. Trump's only role is signing whatever Edolf and Stephen Miller put in front of him, then go on TV and say things "very strongly." He got his stay-out-of-jail card. He doesn't give a fuck about anything else but golfing and grifting. Democrats need to get way more creative and fast.
