It's wild that we've reached a point where the President openly admits to firing people for political reasons, and his OMB director tweets about it like it's a victory. This is page one of the authoritarian playbook, happening in plain sight.

Bolton didn’t have the balls to report the perfect phone call with Zelensky. Vindman and his staffer had to do it.

That press conference shows the tragedy of Eric Adams. He had some real successes: City of Yes, trash containerization, crime reductions, etc. but couldn't stop tripping over all the bags of money he and his aides kept taking from people and now thinks it's the media's fault for reporting on it.
