Nothing says Make America Great Again quite like giving Argentina’s dictator $40B to help save his country from sheer ruin whilst also preparing to flood the American markets with imports from that same country like Argentinian Beef which will be catastrophic for US farmers.

Two days ago, he took a shit on the American people. Today, he began demolishing the People’s House. That’s all he does. He shits on people, and he destroys things. Bcuz he’s a horrible person. I blame him a lot for the death & destruction he’s caused. I blame his enablers & his appeasers even more.

While we're on the subject of water companies' dodgy practices, what about the hikes in payments Thames Water is trying? They wanted my monthly payment to increase from £35 to £69. Said I'd pay in arrears 6 monthly. Next bill works out at £46, so £22 less than they claimed I'd need to pay. #r4today

It seems Glenn Beck and his ilk are preparing their followers for two possible futures: a) permanent and complete GOP control of the federal government or b) massive resistance to a Democratic victory that will make J6 look like a garden party. One thing they’re not prepping folks for is democracy.

Donald Trump is too simple-minded to realize that when he brags about the White House's tacky new Caesars Palace Ballroom being "privately funded," he's admitting to taking bribes from influence peddlers, millionaires, and corporations that want something from him.

Via Martin Wolf, here is what happens when populists take control. on.ft.com/47fVDsb
Maybe the UK was pitched exactly onto this curve. We got Brexit and Johnson, and it dropped our GDP by 4% relative to not doing that.

Elect another populist government in 2029, and maybe we'll get the next 6%

Raskin with Jeffries: "It's an alarming situation where now we have many of these January 6 defendants who have been picked up on other defenses. The Department of Justice is not zealously prosecuting them for other crimes they have committed ... it's a very dangerous situation."

BREAKING: In an insane moment, Donald Trump Jr. says, without an ounce of irony, that if his dad wanted to be king, he would never have left office.

He tried to stay, Junior.

Bower: But when you’re a sitting United States attorney approaching a reporter you don’t know, and you don’t set the conditions of that conversation at the outset.. of course, it’s expected that whatever you say is on the record, and that they can report it.

Important to note that it's New York STATE that brought charges against the J6er that threatened Hakeem Jeffries. Not the DOJ.

Rather than allowing him to make a blanket accusation, they should get him to state specific lies. Then they could be taken apart. This kind of accusation is so broad that it's just not refutable.
Someone needs to start thinking and pushing back hard.
