  1. I'm surprised he didn't add racist shitbird Steve King's cantaloupe calves obsession

    The lightning-rod congressman wasn't backing down from his comments comparing immigrants to drug smugglers. Is that a good thing or a bad thing?

    Steve King Doubles Down

    Trump on undocumented farm workers: "People that live in the inner city are not doing that work. They've tried, we've tried, everybody tried. They don't do it. These people do it naturally. Naturally ... they don't get a bad back, because if they get a bad back, they die."

  2. It's NARA, not LOC

    Contributions are unlimited/ undisclosed

    Their private foundations are not obligated to use the money they raise to build anything

    The bribe plane goes to Trump's foundation, not the library he won't ever build

    If you understand how presidential libraries are created, it’s hard to see how Trump ever gets it done.

    Will There Be a Trump Presidential Library? Don’t Count On It.

    If you understand how presidential libraries are created, it’s hard to see how Trump ever gets it done.

    I am suddenly interested in the process involved in making a Presidential Library, like how private is it? How much has to happen? Is that enforceable? Cause I;m with the current situation resulting in no one bothering / anyone in charge stealing all the money and moving to Dubai

  3. I would very much like the next person who interviews RFK Jr. to ask him for evidence to support this quote, and to not nod stupidly along with his response.

    “We should not be giving Black people the same vaccine schedule that’s given to whites, because their immune system is better than ours.”

  4. Shouldn't this dude be quietly enjoying the billions he made inventing transparent aluminum?

    Dr. Nichols, of Plexicorp—who bears a striking and make-you-believe-in-time-travel resemblance to Rep. Mike Flood (R-NE) discusses transparent aluminum with Bones and Scotty (Star Trek IV The Voyage Home)Rep. Mike Flood unable to respond to basic questions from fed-up constituents at a town hall his staff badly miscalculated when they planned it.

    Question for Mike Flood: With $450 million being allocated to Alligator Alcatraz, and ICE burning through $8.4 million a day to illegally detain people—How much does it cost for fascism? How much do the tax payers have to pay for a fascist country?
