Any news outlet that spent even one segment or one article on "Joe Biden is old" in 2024 should be going wall-to-wall with stories about the dementia-ravaged 80-year-old who keeps posting AI garbage and telling insanely obvious lies about himself. And yet

Lewandowski pushes back on the WSJ's detailed reporting about his egregious corruption by comparing it to reporting about Russia collusion and Trump's birthday card to Epstein, two stories that were totally legit at the time and hold up in hindsight Great work, Corey
"This latest Wall Street Journal story, a once great publication, is today just another example of the kind of anonymous-source, politically driven reporting that Americans have seen time and again. We've lived through the Russia collusion hoax the fake Birthday card and countless other sensational allegations that ultimately failed to withstand scrutiny.

I'm tremendously proud of my work as a volunteer in advancing this administration's agenda and remain confident that the facts and not anonymous accusations will ultimately speak for themselves."

Elon Musk supported the rising neo-Nazi party in Germany. He’s the number one funder of Republicans in the midterms. He’s supporting fascist agitators in England. It’s long past time for anyone who supports democracy to leave his propaganda website. It’s time to boycott X.

The fact that VP JD Vance and Richard Grenell went to Romania—on behalf of the Trump Administration— to advocate for Andrew and Tristan Tate, who by all accounts, were rapists running a coercive sex ring, then permitted them to come to Florida, should be a crazy, crazy scandal.

Funny/sad irony here is Trump has provided a very clear demonstration of the difference between actual power (the ability to shape real-world outcomes) and the shallow reality TV bluster many think is power. The BS well is bottomless. Power is Iran blocking Hormuz. Trump capitulated in response.

Because the press generally treats every corrupt Trump move as a done deal, I am still confused if congress actually has the power, if not the will, to kill his slush fund. Did the coverage just assume he'd steamroll them as usual or can he go around them somehow?
