"Each day, every day, all day... government officials belligerently get in the face of whoever dares to ask them a question and insists 2+2 is 5 and fuck you."

Great conversation.

Trump’s political team is hellbent on driving one GOP consulting firm out of business — and it could cost Republicans millions in the midterms.

“Just look at the limpdick Democratic response to the shutdown—it’s nowhere near meeting the moment. People have felt these aren’t normal times since before Trump, which is a big reason he got elected. Democrats who show they’re willing to fight are the ones benefitting.” -- @jeffcoote.bsky.social
