As someone whose first name is Scottish (Maxwell) and last name is Irish, with roots back to Ulster, I'm delighted the first thing he says is how the Scotch-Irish no longer have any pride. Sure thing, buddy. Same with how this all connects to Bad Bunny, notorious for, I guess, erasing Ireland?
Trump nominated a legit white nationalist to a top post at the State Department. I asked him some basic questions about his belief in the “erasure of white culture”. Watch this embarrassing, fumbling answer. Like he has never before been asked to explain his views.

Epstein survivor Haley Robson: I’m so tired of having this administration just completely dismiss us. They’re supposed to be the party of, you know, family values and protecting children. And I just feel like if that’s the party you are, it seems like Thomas Massie is the only one showing up for it.

“Rather than explain that the footage had been pieced together from a copy, Attorney General Pam Bondi announced that the reason for the gap was that the prison recording system had a nightly reset resulting in a lost minute every night.”

Was "washed up loser lawyer" one of the insults they pre-loaded in her little "burn book"?
Because I'm not sure it nails a Harvard law graduate who taught con law for 25 years before becoming a congressman who's now the ranking member of the Judiciary Committee -- and, um, likely its next chair?

So, Jack Smith working with a subpoena to acquire general phone logs is a breech of privacy but the DOJ can just randomly spy on the congress people and their computer searches for no apparent reason?

Pam Bondi brought a document to the Judiciary Committee today that had my search history of the Epstein files on it.
The DOJ is spying on members of Congress. It’s a disgrace and I won’t stand for it.

This was interesting from Swalwell, normally a very combative interviewer of Trump admin officials. I think it was an attempt to get her off her prepared talking points, and it worked.
