So, the MAGAincels who went from being experts on infectious diseases to experts on vaccines, military withdrawals, presidential immunity, firearm forms, voting rights, libel law and interoceanic waterways are now experts on wildfire management?

Do I have that just about right?

Trump's nominee for Secretary of Defense has a Deus Vult tattoo, signifying how steeped he is in far-right Christian nationalist ideology. Very normal candidate to lead the largest bureaucracy in the world.

Does anyone still speak to Matt Taibbi? If so, will you tell him that his wretched struggle with basic facts -- and spelling!! -- is playing a key role in destroying the US?

TYVM.
If you care at all about cybersecurity, which is still very much an 🚨 urgent bipartisan issue 🚨 call Rand Paul’s office and let him know that you won’t stand for him eliminating the nation’s cyber defense agency.

Office (202-224-4343).
