Lindsay Graham and Joe Biden. Juxtaposing what he said about Joe in the interview he gave from road vs. how he treated him in Fox News bites or whenever he was performing in front of Trump, and it’s really kinda sad honestly. You can hear the earnestness in his voice here. youtu.be/vPn3JI25oMY?...

ICYMI — Spineless Speaker Mike Johnson: "If Republicans hold the house in the next two years we’d do… exactly what we’ve been doing already.” 🤔 Ummm. Is he trying to lose?

I’ve known many other defense secretaries, starting with Cap Weinberger, who served as defense secretary under Reagan. I can say without fear of contradiction that Pete Hegseth is the stupidest and least qualified of them all. He is a danger to the entire world. He must be impeached.

The most corrupt administration in the history of the US by far. You could add up all instances of corruption by every other admin in US history and it will not equal the amount of corruption perpetrated by this one in less than 2 years.

Fuckface fired a US attorney by email less than an hour after Seattle's federal judges appointed him, and a judge just ordered the man back. The law doesn't let a petty tyrant pick every prosecutor. Blanche and the DOJ are barred from touching him. Good. Choke on it.

Subverting democracy isn't new to John Roberts, Brett Kavanaugh, or Amy Coney Barrett. All three were on George W. Bush's "Florida Recount Team," which lay the groundwork for stopping vote counting in Florida—and Bush v. Gore, the politically-motivated SCOTUS decision that gave Bush the election.
