WOW — Speaker Johnson just embarrassingly claimed Trump has a 90% approval rating 🤥 🤦🏼 (and almost just as embarrassingly, Joe Kernen didn’t laugh in his face)

Trump: “I never wrote a picture.” Junior: “I’ve never seen him doodle.” Reality: Trump has basically been a semi-pro doodler for decades, and has even sold them.

Men who fetishize having a "traditional woman" and obsess over women being modest, obedient, quiet, submissive and homemakers are walking red flags. What they mean is they want a slave, a free SW, and someone to baby them. They want free labor.

Stephen Colbert doesn’t need CBS anyway. Wherever he ends up, people are going to watch him even harder now. All CBS did was solidify the fact that they’ll be know until the end of time as just another spineless corporation that couldn’t do the right thing.

What CBS' disgraceful termination of Stephen Colbert illustrates is how quickly a Republic can fall when the media chooses cowardice instead of courage.

Not really an overstatement to say that the test of a free society is whether or not comedians can make fun of the country's leader on TV without repurcussions.

While Kristi Noem’s out here blaming everyone but herself, here’s her own April press release bragging about clawing back $882M in disaster resilience grants. The kind that could’ve helped in Texas. They’d rather wage culture wars than actually protect human lives.
FEMA Ends Wasteful, Politicized Grant Program, Returning Agency to Core Mission of Helping Americans Recovering from Natural Disasters
Release Date: April 4, 2025
Under Secretary Noem, DHS is eliminating waste, fraud and abuse
WASHINGTON - FEMA is ending the Building Resilient Infrastructure and Communities (BRIC) program and canceling all BRIC applications from Fiscal Years 2020-2023. If grant funds have not been distributed to states, tribes, territories and local communities, funds will be immediately returned either to the Disaster Relief Fund or the U.S. Treasury.
Statement Attributable to a FEMA Spokesperson:
"The BRIC program was yet another example of a wasteful and ineffective FEMA program. It was more concerned with political agendas than helping Americans affected by natural disasters. Under Secretary Noem's leadership, we are committed to ensuring that Americans in crisis can get the help and resources they need."
Approximately $882 million of funding from the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act will be returned to the U.S. Treasury or reapportioned by Congress in the next fiscal year. The 2021 law made $1 billion available for BRIC over five years, $133 million to date has been provided for about 450 applications. FEMA estimates more than $3.6 billion will remain in the Disaster Relief Fund to assist with disaster response and recovery for communities and survivors.
Ending this program will help ensure that grant funding aligns with the President's Executive Orders and Secretary Noem's direction and best support states and local communities in disaster planning, response and recovery.

Dismantling these departments that warn us about the weather is in Project 2025, and the core reason is they say these departments (RIGHTLY) drive “climate chang alarmism”, which “is harmful to future prosperity” (aka BIG OIL PROFITS)

Clark: How can Trump not know that it cuts $1 trillion out of Medicaid? Between that and the cuts to the ACA, 17 million Americans are going to have their health care ripped away. But it goes on, it will cut half of a trillion from Medicare.

"I'm not sympathetic to Murkowski’s plight. I don’t empathize when she laments the difficulty of her vote. What she did wasn't difficult. You don’t get credit for doing the hard thing when you didn’t actually do the hard thing. If Murkowski wants sympathy, she should try doing something to earn it."
