Goldman: The notion that Tom Homan does official consulting business by receiving $50,000 in cash in a Cava bag is preposterous.

And the fact that they closed that investigation while charging Jim Comey and Tish James with bogus charges at Trump’s direction is completely destroying the DOJ.

@msnbc.com Katy Tur owes an apology to the young woman for asking her if she considered her mother the worst of the worst? It was insensitive and, quite frankly, an ignorant question! She needs to apologize publicly!

C-SPAN caller to Mike Johnson: "Hearing you say that 'everyone is smiling' in cities where troops have been rolled into feels dystopian and insane watching the response to it."

They are having fun. Cruelty, greed, avarice, racism, misogyny, homophobia, xenophobia, all those things are fun and funny to the GOP. I dare you to review their 'policies' and come to a different conclusion. And be able to defend it.
Every American should see
this

They're having fun
Thousands of Americans losing their jobs
Millions of Americans will lose Healthcare
Healthcare Insurance premiums skyrocket
Grocery & Utilities costs soar

They don't care
They think it's funny
Wake up Americans

The fact that Matthew Dowd lost his job for pointing out Charlie Kirk’s hate speech, while Brian Kilmeade openly suggests we should euthanize the homeless and there is zero outrage, shows exactly what is terribly wrong with today’s political mainstream media.

Or even if it were school children, who Kirk considered acceptable sacrifices on the alter of the Second Amendment.
On my mind: If it was you or me instead of him, Charlie Kirk would have called ours a justified death or even laughed and made fun of our demise. I think if someone demonstrates in life that they lack empathy for others, it’s more than reasonable to hold minimal compassion for them in their death
