This morning the White House is attacking Judge Boasberg as a "Democrat activist," which is odd, since he's a registered Republican.
Leavitt: This judge is a Democrat activist. He was appointed by Barack Obama
Reporter: He was originally appointed by George W. Bush and elevated by Obama.

Everything Musk oversees stays together for a while, but falls apart over time: Cybertrucks, SpaceX rockets, Twitter... It's only a matter of time before we see a rapid unscheduled disassembly of the Trump regime. We just have to keep pulling back the facade until it falls apart, too.
