The MAGA government is not the happiest group of campers right now, let’s just say that much. A number of things are going to hell simultaneously. First of all, after all the blustering of Karoline Leavitt at the White House, followed up by Alina Habba declaring that she and Pam Bondi determined what the law of the land was, guess what? Some real lawyers must have gotten together and figured out that Trump was in fact violating the Impound Act of 1974 and told Trump to back down. So he did indeed back down. He always backs down when he’s finally caught looking like the fool he is — and then he spins it as something deliberate and wise.
Trump backed down.
This is a win. It's what happens when we fight back. pic.twitter.com/FC8vogTyRn

So doesn’t Trump look stupid? There are reporters doubtlessly scouring the records to find out the last time that an executive order got rescinded because it was predicated on something illegal, not to mention downright cruel, and it just goes to show the state of professionalism in this administration. Speaking of professionalism, take a look at how RFK Jr. is faring. The man is not only being grilled, he’s being flayed alive. Watch.
Every media person should question every GOP Senator who votes for this scary, messed up,inexperienced, unqualified, dangerous candidate who can't even answer a question with a straight face and whose cousin wrote the most damning letter about him which caused her pain to do.

Warnock: You have compared the CDC's work to Nazi death camps. You've compared it to sexual abusers in the catholic church.
RFK JR: I never said it.

Sanders: You started a group called the Children Health Defense. On their website, they are selling what's called onesies. These are little things clothing for babies. One of them is titled unvaxed unafraid. pic.twitter.com/HG9RWp73CH

The man is a conspiracy theorist and a lunatic, plain and simple. Hopefully he will not get confirmed because as Senator Bennet said, “this is a matter of life and death.” But the GOP might decide to rubberstamp him the way that they did Pete Hegseth, who is equally a disaster.

That says it all.
Flayed alive is right. There are probably some small, helpless animals looking down and smiling as this monster is put through the blender.
“I never said that”…yeah…and I didn’t just type this sentence. Goddamn the voters. Children’s deaths are on YOUR hands. You soulless aholes.
Even my Senator, Michael Bennet (only one t, please), who has done some good things but at whom I am currently still pissed pushed him pretty hard. And that’s nice. But how sis the vote go?
