I'm not sure you can find anyone within DOGE who ever met or spoke with her.

Is she even real? πŸ˜‰

Trump Admin starts war.

Trump Admin shocked by consequences of war.

Trump Admin urgently (!) tells Americans caught by those consequences to get out! get out! and no there's no help coming from the Trump Admin, and good luck finding a land route out somewhere.

My wife and I read the paper together in the morning. Our conversation consists of muttering and obscenities.

I traveled to the World Cup in Japan and Brazil. I live in a host city and won't be attending.

You have to admit, this is some great low comedy.

I'd believe that Hegseth had no idea what "no quarter" means. He heard the phrase on some video games.

What a douchebag.

Trump says the war will end when he feels it in his bone spurs.

🎯 After all, I insist that anyone asking for my vote earn it. There are no automatics.

Bigotry and hate (and the utter stupidity of voters) will get him elected governor in Alabama.

I'm actually enjoying watching AUSA Boxwine as she gets her ass handed to her by judges and juries.

We'll be left with the Coalition of the Stupid: the US and Israel.

While Hegseth gives Trump a virtual blowjob, he is burning through our tax dollars at an astonishing rate.

His praise of Trump ratchets further up as his failures become more obvious. This "quick little war" is going to sink the GOP this fall.

U.S. Economy Was Vulnerable Before War With Iran

Trump's economic policies were failing before Iran.

β€œIt basically shows that inflation firmed up to start the year,” Omair Sharif, founder of the research firm Inflation Insights, said of the data. β€œAll the key measures are moving in the wrong direction.”

You'd think the "Secretary of Energy" who worked in the oil business would grasp the global nature of oil and gas markets.

I'm just shocked that any outlet would give Navarro a platform when he's been so consistently wrong about everything.

Everything about this piece is disturbing AF.

It's difficult to overstate how extreme younger Republicans have become. Large percentages proudly announce that they are racists and antisemites. The leaders of the Young Republican organizations are batshit crazy.

There's a good chance they'll disenfranchise as many Republicans as Democrats.
