BANNON, EARLIER: “Iraq wasn’t a ‘failure of intelligence’ or an honest mistake — It was a bald-faced lie. You were lied to… Trump said that. It’s one of the reasons he’s president - and we’re getting bald-faced lies right now.”

This is part of what’s so insane. As they talk about re-shoring and manufacturing they are actively trying to destroy an entire us manufacturing industry that already exists.
Billions of dollars in clean energy projects have been canceled since Donald Trump took office again — leaving thousands of jobs and the shift to clean energy in doubt.

TRUMP DITCHES FALLEN SOLDIERS' DIGNIFIED TRANSFER FOR GOLF DINNER

Trump won't attend the dignified transfer of 4 U.S. soldiers at Dover AFB who died in Lithuania.

He'll be at his Saudi-backed LIV Golf dinner in Florida instead. The soldiers were honored by Lithuania's president.

I feel like we're kind of overlooking the fact that the head of the Department of Health and Human Services sat in a Steak n Shake yesterday and basically said getting measles is better than getting a measles vaccine.

Wow — Trump pardoned former Tennessee Republican State Senator Kelsey, found guilty of federal campaign finance crimes. He had reported to prison 2 weeks ago.

Yet another example of Republicans who pledge fealty to Trump being above the law.

Donald Trump stood in front of Congress tonight and reinforced what we already knew: He’s a corrupt megalomaniac lunatic who is running our country to the ground. These are not normal times. Everything is not fine. We are in crisis.

Starting this week, we’ll all pay more at the store because of the Trump tariffs, even while he’s finalizing a multi-trillion-dollar tax cut for the wealthy.

All the bluster is meant to get us talking about literally anything else.
