Every trump admin appointee is an expert at two things, the first being an expert at not being an expert at what they were appointed to do, the second being that they are an expert at polishing trumps helmet.

I have no idea how we can heal as a country when right wing media dominates the narrative, and poisons the minds of tens of millions of people, with misinformation. Tens of millions of people who literally have no idea what’s going on.

It’s continues to be despicable how the media has spent a decade normalizing the orange felon so much so that they are reporting on his authoritarian militarization of Washington DC as if it were a routine military exercise. They deliberately failed democracy for clickbait.

This week alone, the President defended slavery, used the FBI to seek revenge on a political rival, re-drew the Texas electoral map, and deployed federal troops on our city streets. Actual Fascism. But by all means, let’s talk more about Cracker Barrel and Sydney Sweeney’s dungarees.

COLBERT: You warned everyone…he would prosecute political enemies, cut Medicaid, alienate our allies, give tax cuts to the rich. I know you're not here to say 'I told you so' but would you like to? HARRIS: You're correct. I did predict a lot of that. But what I did not predict was the capitulation.

And, I believe, Medicaid was enacted in the mid-60s with 70 Senators voting in favor. So 70 votes to pass it, and 50 to dismantle it. Make it makes sense. Criminals.

One of many reasons the GOP will never get rid of the filibuster. All they care about are further enriching the wealthy and appointing far right judges, and they can do that all the time with 51 votes. Only the Dems get f*cked by the filibuster.
