If Republicans are so angry about public services fraud, then why don't they look at the Florida Governor's mansion first?

Tonight’s #FridayLimericks go to Stephen Miller, Deputy Chief Prick. #LimerickRhyme
Steve is Deputy Policy Chief,
To the President felon and thief.
Miller thinks that he’s slick,
But he’s merely a dick
Driving hatred and white privileged grief.

Trump and Stephen Miller are actually failing in crucial ways. Deportations are lagging behind their goals, courts are mostly functioning, and their fascist, ethnonationalist cruelties have unleashed a countermobilization of unexpected scope and power.

The water pipeline bill's unanimous passage suggests wide majorities in the Senate and House to override Trump's veto - if GOP leaders will allow it. Boebert tells me she's already spoken with Speaker Johnson about an override vote or rolling the bill into other legislation.

The pipeline project is in GOP Rep Lauren Boebert's district. Boebert recently challenged Trump to force the release of the Epstein files. Boebert has issued a blistering statement reading, in part, "I sincerely hope this veto has nothing to do with political retribution."
