Newsom: Noem was condemning the Biden administration since there was a chance her National Guard might be federalized. She condemned it, and Hannity shook his head in disgust at the so-called incompetence of the Biden administration.

That incompetenceโ€”and hypocrisyโ€”is on full display right now.

In amongst all the excitement I fear many have missed this outstanding bit of trolling by Friedrich Merz.

The Chancellor gifted Trump a gilded framed copy of his grandfatherโ€™s German birth certificate... reminding Americans that Trump is both the child and grandchild of migrants.

Just call it the Self-Inflicted Wound Era, when we took a bunch of stuff that was working largely fine (vaccines, weather monitoring, friendly relations with like 175 countries, cancer research, renewable energy credits, the FAA, global trade, etc etc) and just broke them for giggles

I've knownthis since day one: he's merely the figurehead; plenty of people, esp Stephen Miller, are behind the scenes pulling the strings.

This is the root of the problem right here. Enough with STUFF that will "make you happy!" THINGS don't make us happy. And, we sure as hell don't need more crap cluttering up our world.

This asshole raised prices and ruined your retirement savings, and now he's out golfing for the rest of the weekend.

Donald Trump has committed the most profound, harmful and unnecessary economic error in the modern era. Almost everything he saidโ€”on history, economics and the technicalities of tradeโ€”was utterly deluded econ.st/3YbbFjq

The GOP fought tooth & nail for decades against classifying acts of racial terrorism as federal hate crimes because they saw it as "federal over reach." Now they're all "ooh, let's make it a federal crime to vandalize cars built by the world's richest man who's also our biggest campaign donor."

And where are all these federal employees going to find jobs?? The private sector is pulling back on hiring, and it's safe to assume the majority of these individuals having specialized skills!

So HHS just fired 10,000 employees. Again, where are all these fired federal employees going to find jobs, especially since most have specialized skills, and companies are scaling back on hiring because of the economy! It is maddening, to say the least!
