Speaker Mike Johnson on Fox & Friends suggests Biden's "wide open border" played a role in the New Orleans attack. Again, the perpetrator was born in Texas and served in the US military.

For you MAGA who still aren't getting it: Republicans pit you against immigrants to distract you as they take everything from you, then convince you to blame Democrats, who tried to help you.

You've been voting for them for a generation and they've done nothing but make your lives steadily worse.

Let's see what ma and pa MAGA spent their SSI checks on:

Self-described billionaire Donald Trump sent another $4.3 million collected from his donors to his lawyers in the weeks surrounding the Nov. 5 election.

That raises the total to $90.8 million

He also continues fundraising from his millions of followers, although more of each dollar raised is going to the RNC than it was immediately after the election.

Nearly every single Republican voted against releasing the Matt Gaetz ethics report.

It is absurd and obscene to suggest the only way our military can project strength is to appoint as its leader a guy whose own mother called an abusive POS.

And you can't explain it away as "boys be wild."

Alexander Vindman is a patriot. Elon Musk, himself an oligarch, is drunk on power and out of control.

1/ 🧵 Trump’s pick for Navy Secretary is raising eyebrows—even among his own supporters. Why? He nominated a hedge fund manager with ZERO military experience who happens to be a major donor. This isn’t leadership—it’s cronyism. Let’s break it down and fight back.
One X user who sports “#MAGA” in her bio wrote: “This makes ZERO sense. NONE. How is Trump naming a hedge fund guy as Secretary of the Navy??? WTH??? I’m a huge Trump supporter, but we need MILITARY COMMANDERS running military branches.”

Isn’t it funny how the U.S. media is suddenly posting stories about the improving inflation picture now that the election is over? 🧐

Anyone, any entity, anywhere in the world can just pay him any amount (for anything he promises in return), and there's no disclosure of the payments, no oversight of any of it by anyone, and of course no potential bribery prosecution (of him) because... immune.

I understand that the Trump transition is not submitting nominees for FBI background checks, and that in many cases there appears to be no formal vetting at all.

But are they also not just... uh... googling?

For me, it was that millions would readily jettison their faith in our institutions, the Oval Office, rule of law, even our ideals, and vote for a convicted felon, adjudicated rapist and fraudster...all to save a few bucks on gas and groceries.
