Lutnick isn’t stupid. He knows what he’s saying here is a lie. Kellyanne knows this is a lie. But they have nothing but contempt for the Fox audience, and serving up lies to the lemmings has worked so well for so long. A tiny handful are doing well, millions are not.

This issue alone is going to cost them seats in places they don’t expect. They don’t understand the grass roots anger and hostility there is about this, and billionaire CEOs of Cantor Fitzgerald like Lutnick aren’t going to fool them with their con men sales pitches.

you have to imagine that this probably also happens when there doesn't happen to be a Herald reporter randomly sitting there to see it happen
"A Miami Herald reporter witnessed the agents forcefully removing Dayana — who is 4-feet, 11-inches tall and weighs 85 pounds — from her white Toyota Corolla. The footage shows Dayana yelling at the reporter to help her and that she was a United States citizen"
only a bit above the paywall but you get the horrible gist www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...

20 State AGs have sued Russell Vought for trying to starve the CFPB of funding.

Since 2011, the CFPB has returned over $20B to consumers.

Without the Bureau, financial predators and scammers will have an easier time picking your pocket.

In 2023 I became obsessed with videos of dads in cargo shortswaiting in parking lots during Taylor Swift's Eras Tour. So when she came to town, I grabbed a camera and headed down to talk to them. I thought it'd be funny. It turned out to be something else entirely.

It’s past time for the DOJ and FBI to follow the money on Epstein as I've been doing for 3 years. The bankers who looked the other way, Epstein’s accountants and lawyers who controlled his cash flow, and the billionaires who funded Epstein’s criminal network.
