The other news agencies could have simply boycotted the WH briefing room until AP News was reinstated.

The GOP are the incompetent buffoons of unintended consequences. Includes more of the exchange.

Of course it's not funny when those consequences whether intentional or not kill Americans.

Not doing so well now that Trump is golfing while Musk razes the building.

BINGO. The whole scythe versus scalpel government cuts approach is just Musk covering his tracks.
Reminder: $277 billion = annual civilian Federal paychecks
$400 billion = annualized cost of Trump tax cuts (SPEND!)
Ditch the cuts, save $123 billion, and fire no one.

The proposed tax cut is $4.5 trillion, annualized it costs $400 billion that is not going into the treasury, so it's federal spend.
Republicans pretend tax cuts are money for the rich and corporations to drive jobs and opportunity. Trickle down is a lie. Cuts are money we are spending on them.

Bove basically said there was. Ho can deny the motion to dismiss. What would the Federal prosecutors (left) do? Refuse to show up and attempt to forfeit?

Trump has a hard-on for Iran. It's only a matter of time before war breaks out.

Trump doesn't understand that foreign bases are to protect America's interests, not to run a "free" protection service for countries to cheap to fund their own. Didn't Trump want to demand "protection" payments last time?
Oh, yes. Yes he did.

Ukraine should never have given up being a nuclear power. Any agreement Russia signs is an irrelevant piece of paper whose only purpose is to lull the other side into a period of complacence until the next Russian violation/aggression.

Honestly, did we for even a ➡️nanosecond⬅️ believe it was about anything else? This was predicted.
There's no room for Republicans to plead "unintended consequences" and still proclaim themselves the champions of "family values."

Actually the TX stock exchange is a sub of the NYSE. Something about TX being business friendly [leaving out the human unfriendly part].

Too bad it's possible for humans TO BE BORN with other than those two "immutable" variations. This is what it looks like when politics supplants science.
