The administration is flooding the zone with headlines—Muslim Ban, Garcia’s indictment, even the Musk-Trump feud—all to distract from the real crisis: the budget bill. These moves aren’t random; they’re designed to shift media focus away from what truly matters right now.

How many of orange face’s friends knew he was going to postpone tariffs on Mexico and bought stock after the stock market plunged this morning?

Let me emphasize: Elon Musk has not been confirmed by Congress. His “department” was never actually enacted. No one other than Trump has given him any authority.

Democrats and any Republicans with a spine need to step in and stop this madness.

Devastating documentary about what happened in Ukraine by Giuliani,

So it seems like now the way one must campaign is to lie about everything!
At least then it will be possible to know the truth

The IRS rolled out its first-ever free filing program thanks to the Inflation Reduction Act — which every Republican voted against.

This "efficiency" department kicked things off by announcing two people will run it. Now it's recreating services that already exist.

Efficient!
