KeEp poLitICs OuT oF SPoRts…
Fox gives Trump a platform during their NFL broadcast to peddle his absurd lies about "prices are coming way down", "we inherited a mess," and "our country has over $17 trillion being invested in it." Absolutely shameful for all involved.

I can’t wait for Mike Johnson for not know anything about this when asked tomorrow.
O'DONNELL: Why did you pardon Changpeng Zhao?
TRUMP: Are you ready? I don't know who he is
O'DONNELL: His crypto exchange Binance helped facilitate a $2b purchase of World Liberty Financial's stablecoin. And they you pardoned him.
TRUMP: Here's the thing -- I know nothing about it

What’s the shortest book ever written? 300 Years of Conservative Satire.
Q: What does it say that president released a video of him pooping on the American people?
MIKE JOHNSON: You can argue he's probably the most effective person who has ever used social media. He's using satire to make a point. He's not calling for the murder of his political opponents.

JD Vance has excused the leaked racist messages from the young Republicans group chat as “kids being kids” and “just mistakes.” But who really gets to be a kid in this country? And what kinds of kids are allowed to make mistakes?
