Murphy: "Newsflash: These guys are incompetent. They don't know what they're doing. We hired a weekend Fox News host with no diplomatic or management experience with a checkered personal history of abuse and alcoholism to be our chief national security official. And it's going very badly."

Trump keeps claiming he has a mandate to do whatever he wants because he won. He says that to make it impossible to oppose him. But, no one voted for this. He claimed he wasn't going to do Project 2025, which is exactly what he's doing. www.youtube.com/watch?v=aUnu...
