Every part of this is bonkers. The intro is bonkers. The transition to his health is bonkers. The mention that other presidents didn't need cognitive exams is bonkers. The claim that this screening test is somehow hard is bonkers. The idea that criticism of him is treason is bonkers. All of it.

Reporter: Governor Walz called for the release of your MRI results
Trump: They were perfect like my phone call where I got impeached.
Reporter: Can you tell us what they were looking at?
Trump: I have no idea. It was just an MRI. It wasn’t the brain because I took a cognitive test and aced it.

It helps to keep them in line when you sprinkle taxpayer money all over them.
Important to remember that on top of the fascism and incompetence, everybody in the Trump admin is also stealing everything they can as quickly as possible.
NEW: DHS invoked the “national emergency” at the border to skirt competitive bidding rules for a $220 million taxpayer-funded ad campaign.
We found that a firm with deep ties to Kristi Noem secretly benefited from the deal.

Pam Bondi lied to Congress.
She just charged James Comey of doing the same thing, after complying with Trump's order.

They can be impeached. And, should Bove be confirmed — which he should not be — he should immediately be the subject of an impeachment inquiry should Dems retake Congress. He should not be a federal judge due to his actions at DOJ. That does not change if he is confirmed.
Of the infinite reasons Bove should be rejected, one I can't stop thinking abt. Fed judges aren't req'd to be members of a state bar. Pres can't pardon away prof'l ethics offenses. But he can give them lifetime appts that make bar licensure unnecessary. It makes his lawyers effectively undeterrable.
Justice Connection sent a letter signed by 900+ former DOJ attorneys urging the Senate Judiciary Committee to rigorously examine Emil Bove’s assault on the department and rule of law before voting on a lifetime judicial appointment.
