Proving yet again one of my basic rules on navigating Trumpism: He will always replace an incompetent person with someone more incompetent.

So far the war in Iran has cost an estimated $5.5 billion.

That's roughly $1 billion per day.

$41,666,667 per hour.

$11,574 per second.

People do not want this.

They want a living wage. They want healthcare. They want to be able to afford a home. They want their basic needs met.

Markwayne Mullin is a knuckleheaded plumber and the only Senator not to have a bachelors degree. Republicans in the Senate confirming the Mullin appointment to run Homeland Security will show their usual disregard for the well-being of the citizens of this country while blindly pleasing Trump.

I’ve been asked if I would support Sen. Mullin as Noem’s replacement.

The answer is a resounding NO. The rot in DHS is deep, much deeper than any individual.

It’s a question of policy not personnel. The Senate should not consider any DHS Secretary nominee until DHS and ICE are reined in.

Just a thought, maybe SecDef shouldn’t jerk himself off on live television at the thought of casualties in war.

War isn’t something to be giddy about. Were the most powerful nation on the planet. We’re supposed to be the quiet professionals, not carnival barking morons.

And that’s how congressional hearings are supposed to work.

Hopefully there will be some fraud charges to go with it.

But way to shit your pants and change your shirt, Trump.

Dear Republicans or Maga or super religious people, would you please stop! Read your Bible. It says that God will come in like a thief in the night. You're not gonna know when the world ends so stop trying to make it end. All you're doing is stressing everybody out .

Kelly: "You could pick a random group of people off the street tonight here in DC and they could probably do a better job than our government is doing right now. They don't have a goal, there's no strategic plan. And what this is likely to lead to is, again, a long war with a lot of dead Americans."

Karoline Leavitt told us the US State Department was helping Americans stranded in the Middle East.

She lied.

One Texas woman in Dubai called the State Department hotline, was scolded for being scared and then hung up on.

This administration is *full* of incompetent, rude people.

Pa. Sens. Fetterman, McCormick vote against effort to rein in Trump’s war powers U.S. Sen. John Fetterman, D-Pa., was the only Democrat in the Senate to vote against scaling back the war in Iran.

John Fetterman was the *only* "Democrat" to vote against reining in Donald Trump's unconstitutional attempts to start wars without Congressional approval. What a dick.

Earlier today, I said to a colleague, β€œHegseth is talking about this war, as if it were a video game.” I have a witness.

After being exposed as a serial adulterer, Kristi Noem leaves Congress in shame. Giddy up. 🐎

Listening to Hegseth brief is like listening to the slobbering drunk at a bar...maybe never even served...spinning sloppy bravado for one reason: to sound β€œmacho.”

It never lands. Anyone sober hears insecurity, and the stink of a serious drinking problem.

American soldiers are being killed because the president doesn’t want you to know that he raped little children for decades. And if I’m wrong, sue me, asshole.

Gas prices have already risen 14% because of Donald’s Operation Epstein Distraction. He did that.
