COLBERT, on Rep. Al Green’s removal:
“Some people questioned why so much muscle was needed to remove an old man with a cane. But it turns out it was for a serious reason. When security searched him, they found that he smuggled in a spine."

I've been thinking a lot about that bumper sticker which says "everything looks like a conspiracy theory when you don't understand how anything works" and folks it's pretty obvious to me that the people in power right now have absolutely no desire to understand how anything works.

Trump is backpedaling on nearly everything—deportations, tariffs, firings, even dismantling the Dept. of Ed—after backlash. But these were his campaign promises. His chaos is no accident. Stay informed with today’s top stories.
Today in Politics, Bulletin 85. 3/6/25
… The theme of the day was Trump backpedaling on several of his major announcements, executive orders, campaign promises, and policies after intense backlash.

“Those nasty Canadians are ripping us off and are controlled by Mexican cartels. They’re poisoning us with fentanyl and need to become the 51st state or they will pay a high price” is a belief that literally ZERO Americans had six weeks ago. It’s entirely invented from scratch.

Trump and Musk are messing with Social Security by demanding 15% cuts to staff.
“We are already short-staffed as it is. Right now we are working on applications generally from 2023-ish.”
These Trump and Musk Social Security cuts could mean that "easily the wait times will be extended by one year."

Bill Clinton brought the US into strong economic growth and record job creation (22.7 million). He raised taxes on higher income taxpayers early in his first term and cut defense spending and some welfare. By the time he left office the federal budget had a surplus $$
