I was skeptical of this take but making up some bullshit to accuse someone of a crime in defense of Trump only for it to completely fall apart, then acting outraged and refusing to apologize for any of it really does sound like Vance VP material.

On the *same day* the Cornell Seven drugged and raped Jane Doe, Cornell banned four students (including the President of Cornell JVP) from campus for three years for nonviolent, pro-Palestine protests. The same Cornell officials let the rapists off with apology essays.

Calling bullsh*t on any pundit or so-called expert who continues to suggest that 'maybe MAHA has a point' on any damn thing. Babies in PA are being born with measles, we still can't trust the safety of our produce and today in DC, MAHA has an accused rapist moderating a panel. Come on.
In two weeks, Russell Brand goes on trial in the UK on rape and sexual assault charges in cases involving six women.

Tomorrow in DC, he's appearing at a MAHA gathering to  'moderate' a discussion with Dr Oz about medicare and medicaid.

Proof beyond a reasonable doubt that Trump and Co. conducted a criminal conspiracy to defraud the United States out of its presidential election — ie attempted an autogolpe, or "self-coup" — was in the public record. The facts and the law were never in question. Only if America would follow them.

Always remember that when voters were considering their vote in 2024, The Ohio State University put their full Epstein-Wexner-Strauss-tainted hand on the scale for the Trump-Vance ticket by vouching for Vance's character. Indefensible. Disgraceful. And so Ohio State University.

The CDC’s anti-smoking ad campaign Tips From Former Smokers was highly effective. It ran for 14 years. The Trump administration ended it last year — one of several steps to unravel US government antismoking initiatives amid a flurry of donations from Big Tobacco to Trump groups.

While I'm here, worth pointing out how ghoulish Republicans actually are. They'll keep a woman's body alive as an incubator. They'll keep a Senator's body alive so his seat can't be filled by anyone else. And the fact we can't immediately discount the latter as unbelievable is its own problem. Sick.
