Imagine a Democrat saying that maybe the veterans they fired without cause “perhaps aren’t fit to have a job,” and then expecting that Democrat to face zero consequences in the press or at the ballot box. That even the thought of this is impossible should tell you where we are right now.

Kernen to Lutnick: When you talk about fentanyl and Canada, it sounds like an excuse. 43 pounds came across the Canadian border last year versus 21,148 pounds from Mexico. So it is really fentanyl?

Grimly hilarious coming from Alina Habba, a parking garage lawyer who should have been disbarred long ago, but failed upward into representing Trump.

I knew this would happen, but it's still surreal to hear another nation's leader talk to us in a televised address the way US presidents have historically spoken to the citizens of countries led by dictators and despots.

Unconstitutional. Appropriations bills are laws. If the president is not bound by them, he can make laws by fiat and is acting like a dictator. No Democrat can vote for any appropriations or debt ceiling bill while this is happening.

Sigh. Less than 10 minutes after publishing this article, I had to go back and edit it to add that U.S. is now suspending all military aid to Ukraine. I mean, it supports my piece and thesis, but I I wish was wrong.

Leavitt: "Your audience should be aware that tonight -- 12:01am -- tariffs on Mexico and China are going into effect and another 10%, uh, another 10% on China, 25% on Mexico, 25% on Canada. And the reason is because we cannot continue to allow fentanyl to pour into our country."

The average American voter genuinely did not understand who Trump was after his first term, because the legacy Republicans staffing his administration largely managed to confine his reputation to "Average Republican plus mean tweets". There was also an astonishing degree of mass amnesia about 2020.

Lee Zeldin was on Fox today talking about clawing back money lawfully appropriated to organizations by legislation like the Inflation Reduction Act simply bc Trump doesn't like it. This is an especially egregious example of how Trumpers have redefined "fraud" to just mean "spending I disagree with."

We have really become a profoundly stupid country to elect so many posers like this. She has played this game a dozen times on bills. All the usual suspects squawk & whine & cry before they do in the end what they were going to do from the beginning. They crave drama & attention.

Every time a Republican utters the phony ‘waste, fraud & abuse’ talking point, they should be confronted with key fact noted by Aaron here that ‘fraud is really just spending I don’t agree with.’ Call out the musk/maga scam.
