the lefty economic policy that Biden got through didn't pay off as much as I hoped politically, but in the economic data it actually worked way better than I thought it would newrepublic.com/article/1892...
Bidenomics Was Wildly Successful
The president’s domestic record wasn’t just extraordinary. It might put Democrats back in power in four years.

This enrages me.....he put all these new plants and infrastructure upgrades into red states and those stupid fucks didn't even give him any credit for it.
Next time, don't do anything for these constituencies because they apparently don't care. You can't make people like you or vote for you

Mark Kelly: “Pete Hegseth is not a serious person. He’s unqualified for this job. I think he is the least qualified Secretary of Defense in the history of our country by far. & this President thinks he can bully & intimidate people?

Reading the deposition he gave in Chicago you can understand why it is that Judge Ellis tore into him.
The first substantive question is "What is your role in Operation Midway Blitz?" Bovino essentially gives his title and no further details. 8 pages later, the lawyer gives up.
