Dear Eric Schmitt: Other places where Jack Smith was not on February 3 —
Skateboarding with Tony Hawk
Watching a Howard Hawks film
Visiting Ethan Hawke
Jamming with Hamish Hawk
At a Seattle Seahawks game
At a Chicago Blackhawks game
Birdwatching Cooper’s hawks
…but now he’s watching you like a hawk
Under Trump:
-Household electricity costs are up 18%
-Ground beef prices are up 22%
-Gas prices are up 40%
-ACA out-of-pocket premiums are up 58%
-Inflation is at a three-year high
"New Golden Age" for who?
The most important thing to remember about Trump’s press conference last night is that the war in Iran is still out of control, gas prices are still through the roof, and the administration is still hiding the Epstein files from the American people.
Is it fair to say that the Trump regime is actually dumber than President Camacho's government in Idiocracy? Camacho, after all, ultimately empowers a smart guy (Luke Wilson) to actually solve society's problems. Ain't no Luke Wilson among the grifters and sycophants that surround Trump these days.
Trump Media reports Q3 net sales down 3.8% YoY to $972.9K and a net loss of $55M, up from $19M in Q3 2024; its stock is down 70% from a January high (Bailey Lipschultz/Bloomberg)

If that’s what they do to a United States Senator with a question, imagine what they can do to any American that dares to speak up. We will hold this administration accountable.
So we’ve got a Secretary of Defense who can’t keep his communications secure and a Secretary of Homeland Security who can’t keep her handbag secure.
#FireThemAll
So, which is it?
If this info wasn’t classified, that in itself would be a scandalous screw-up that must be explained.
And if it was classified, then the Trump administration lied to Congress and to the American people.
Pete Hegseth is a f*cking liar. This is so clearly classified info he recklessly leaked that could’ve gotten our pilots killed.
He needs to resign in disgrace immediately.
Kelly: When I was flying in combat over Iraq during the first Gulf War, I didn’t expect that there was a 10-year-old kid sitting in South Africa who would one day become the richest guy in the world and call me a traitor for doing my job. Now, he kind of acts like a 12-year-old kid
We are about to find out how much of the U.S. economy is supported by the Feds. In his 1st term #trump mismanaged the pandemic leading to record #jobs loss. In his 2nd he is going to try and beat that by laying off 1/2 of the Government and freezing funding on the other 1/2. #recession in 5,4,3,2...
So it appears that Hegseth will pass confirmation on a tie vote (Elon casts the tie breaker) I was going to post a plea for my Red State friends to call their Senators and ask them to vote no. Having thought about it, I've decided not to. It is only a matter of time (less than 6 months I think)
before he either shows up drunk to work, tries to grab someone by the pu$$y or otherwise reveals his complete and utter inability to manage an organization of size. My only hope is that during those six months we do not have to deal with any military crisis.
Prediction: One of these #pardoned eejits is going to go home, beat their spouse, and then wind up in an 18 hour standoff with the local PD because they've barricaded themselves in their home with their 28 guns.
Uh oh. Pete Hegseth, who denies being fired for drinking, is not going to like these 2016 tweets resurfacing:
“I heard Pete Hegseth was fired from Concerned Vets something about publicly drunk??”
“Yes, I heard about HIS public drunkenness & rude public behavior!!”
According to MAGA, carrying a Confederate flag into the rotunda is “patriotic”, but lowering our flags to honor the passing of a former President, is not.
Ann Telnaes, a Washington Post editorial cartoonist who has been with the newspaper for sixteen years, just quit her job after the cartoon below—which depicts Post owner Jeff Bezos and other CEOs bowing to Donald Trump—was spiked.
It's another huge blow to the credibility of a once-great newspaper.
Would somebody please explain to me why the new plan is better than the old plan? Besides taking away 130M from child cancer research? And a free pass to blow up the national debt.
"You are an abuser of women": The searing email that Pete Hegseth's own mother sent him in 2018 accusing him of sleeping around, cheating on his wife and debasing and belittling women. www.nytimes.com/2024/11/29/u...
🟥 VANCE: Lies about dogs for political gain.
🟥 DONALD TRUMP: Hates dogs.
🟥 LARA TRUMP: Steals money from dog charities.
🟥 BONDI: Steals dogs.
🟥 NOEM: Kills dogs.
How much harder does the world need to work to show us all who the bad guys are?
I feel like we've already been told pretty clearly.
