Cheney and Rumsfeld were evil, but they had brains. Hegseth and Parnell are evil but they are dumb. Dangerous combo.

Summer Lee announced she is introducing impeachment articles against Bondi so at least someone is using the event to do something mildly useful.

Kash Patel celebrating with the USA Hockey team is just him trying to show off his alpha masculinity—drinking a beer and jumping around like he did something.

The corporate co-opting of local government being celebrated in Pittsburgh, while not surprising, is not good policy and sets bad precedent. These aren’t public private partnerships—these are corporate bailouts for poor decision making going back years and will have strings attached.

The pictures of rounded up children won’t move Congress. They didn’t move on guns when twenty 6 and 7 year olds were murdered in Newtown. They don’t care.

Delusionism Is the Real American Ideology We like to believe our political views are grounded in reason—that we arrived at them independently, through evidence and critical thought.

There will be Pro Housing people calling this legislation NIMBY’ism. Trust me. They will make some racist excuse like “I’m against White Nationalism but more supply will lead to lower rents!”

Donor Who Gave $130 Million to Pay Troops Is Reclusive Heir to Mellon Fortune

Timothy Mellon of the famous Pittsburgh Mellon family is the one who provided $130 million to pay US military personnel.

His views on social safety nets are that Democrats “buy” votes by providing government funds to pay for food for infants.

ALL elected officials use autopens and have been for years. By this morons logic, any grant that he wrote a support letter for should be pulled because it was signed by auto pen. Open the government dipshit.

The Republicans are finally getting the government they want—less government. Most of them ran on that platform. So I don’t buy their sob stories about paying workers. They don’t give a shit.
