Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., said at a gathering of House Republicans last week at Trump’s golf club near Miami that Trump has “been using his executive authority, I think, in an appropriate manner.

They’d rather take the money and run since they know if they stand up for their country they’ll be primaried with the very same money they refused to take.

Such a bill has no dream of getting through a Republican-controlled Congress.

The White House does the wash cycle.
The Congress does the spin cycle.
And the Supreme Court hangs it.

Code for I’m a stupid motherfucker who never contributed anything to business or society: “I worked in management consulting and enterprise transformation for a good number of my private sector career,” Tillis said,“.

Christ, what an asshole.

Tillis is not in a safe seat. Wouldn’t be surprised to see Roy Cooper run for it.

>“I don’t mind the disruptive thought process that we’re going through now.

These are the same people who repeatedly lost their shit over Hillary’s email server.

And it isn’t a disruptive thought process, it is disruptive action. Writing code, downloading data, locking people out of offices and disabling websites is not a thought experiment.

WaPo editorial up now online version giving plus and minus of phony assed fed employee buyouts. Editors paid by Bezos say plus is that OPM is run by professional, dedicated public servants who will prove to be the adults in the room. That’s a paraphrase interpretation but it’s what they apparently are paid to believe in their false equivalence world.

Lots of wailing and rending of garments in Dearborn, Mich. tonight. Voters in the largest Arabic community in America voted for the dotard to teach Kamala a lesson. 2016 was all about if we can’t have Bernie we’ll sit at home and pout or vote for Stein to teach Hillary a lesson. After all there’s no difference in Hillary and trump right?!?

Among many mind-bogglingly stupid groups of self-destructive voters this election, that group is certainly among the stupidest.

I didn’t see the “press conference” - did anyone ask Trump where he got such a stupid idea or did everyone just turn on their little Google interpreters and decide that he was actually making some kind of sense.

He is completely out of his fucking mind, you know. Just look at him.

ETA: I just watched the press conference, and I am going to double down on everything I said. Bibi was giving him intense side-eye during the entire talk and when Trump said it would become the “Riviera of the middle East” I think he almost swallowed his tongue.

This is becoming painful - we may be getting a 25th amendment sooner rather than later. He looked and sounded completely delusional.
