The amount that Americans who voted for Trump will save on eggs post inauguration: Thirty shekels of silver.
A few things: 1. Just like Biden won fair & square in 2020, Trump won fair & square in 2024. 2. Kamala Harris is a patriot for accepting the result & publicly conceding. Trump is a traitor for not conceding in 2020. 3. But Biden & Harris must not normalize the real threat…
Mike Johnson is a flame throwing radical extremist along with the rest of them.
Breaking: House Speaker Mike Johnson said he does not think the House Ethics Committee report on allegations related to Matt Gaetz should be released and he is “going to request that the ethics committee not release the report.”
Do you think Johnson would take the same position with a Democratic appointee?
Breaking: Mike Johnson says he does not think the House Ethics Committee report into Matt Gaetz should be released.
Shocking. Maybe Democrats have a different idea.

I had to go through a criminal background check for pretty much every job and contract I've ever had. Here, you can skip that if you know the boss. This is what corruption looks like.
New: Trump’s transition team is bypassing traditional FBI background checks for at least some Cabinet picks while using private companies to vet potential candidates for admin jobs, sources tell us. More w/ @evanperez, @KristenhCNN & @HolmesLybrand cnn.com/2024/11/15/pol…
I predict Trump will now do a much better job than Joe Biden at convincing people that the Biden economy he inherits is good, he will just do that while claiming it is his. It will be the same, just marketed differently.
I absolutely agree with this series of points.
Trump was surrounded by mostly sane people who often stopped his worst impulses in his 1st term — and it still ended with a coup. There are zero guardrails left, zero internal opposition, and the lunatics are in charge. I don’t think many realize how bad this is going to get.

Or, together with the promised tariffs and subsequent retaliatory tariffs (and accompanying trade war), a depression--the one George W Bush and Trump I almost got us into, but that Obama and Biden nipped in the bud before they became full-blown global meltdowns.
Also, Gaetz might be a sacrifice so that Trump then can put someone genuinely dangerous in the job.
Gaetz is terrible (and would do awful things to DOJ), but he’s the distraction.
In developing countries, I see parents carry children on their backs for miles to get lifesaving vaccines. And in the U.S., I see an anti-vaccination leader put in charge of health care in ways that endanger children.
Your future guardian of America’s health, a short story: The outbreak of measles in Samoa starting in September 2019 created a panic. Schools closed, Christmas events were cancelled, lockdowns ensued. More…
Trump is now demanding Senate permit him to use recess appointments to get his extreme appointees through. Senate needs to do its job to provide advice and consent to protect our system of checks and balances. buff.ly/3Z7ZjJT
The idea of the Leader as mythical, or world historical, a man above all other men, is a staple of authoritarian leader cults.
Maybe I’m old-fashioned, but I think it would be wise to have either a doctor or a scientist lead the Department of Health and Human Services—and certainly not somebody who dumped a dead bear in Central Park.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is not a “skeptic” of vaccines. He has said there are no safe or effective vaccines. He is a foe of vaccines.
RFK Jr. is a grade-A crank, writes @BenMazer Let’s not pretend that his views have any value whatsoever. theatlantic.com/health/archive…
