Probably true. But you don’t “end Washington corruption” by giving it even more money and power.
I heard this is a good place to talk about taxing the rich, breaking up big tech, and ending Washington corruption.

Kim Khardashian managed, and it resulted in the First Step Act. Trump isn’t conservative (or liberal)—he’s just a narcissist. If Democrats are smart—and I’m extremely skeptical that they are—they’ll stop “resisting” and start influencing.

Vance is smart enough to know how the Constitution works, but he feigns ignorance and insults the Senate as an institution to fulfill his lapdog duties. Of course, Democrats do this too as it pertains to executive power, but they don’t typically pretend to be constitutional conservatives.

Now seems like a good time to remind people that Senators Klobuchar & Lujan proposed a law to make "health misinfo" illegal. And it would be misinfo as determined by *the head of HHS*. And now RFK Jr. is going to lead that agency.

Oh, hi. I’ve heard on the app formerly known as Twitter that you’ll automatically get blocked here if you’re even somewhat right of center. True? False? 🙃
