FEEDBACK: A viewer wrote about our decision today to detail the violence against police by the Coloradans pardoned by Trump for J6. We did it because many Coloradans back the Blue. And it should be on the record for when those J6 attackers run for office in Colorado. #copolitics

There's little point in noting this since those who need to hear it have already willfully tuned it out, but the FBI searched Mar-a-Lago not because they were hostile to Trump but because Trump was hostile to federal authority! They gave him inordinate opportunities to hand the stuff over!
Grassley is opening the hearing with a barely incoherent whinefest about the FBI being mean to Trump

@andrewrsorkin.bsky.social I find Joe to be as obnoxious as Joe Scarborough. Love your morning show but Joe belongs on Fox business or, actually, Morning Joe so he can talk over everyone, locate and lick the testicles of Trump 2.0. MSM is in decline and viewers are aging. Try a fresh conservative!
