So far, Vance’s foreign policy record is yelling at Zelensky for not thanking Trump enough, campaigning for AfD in Germany and Orban in Hungary, getting rejected by the Pope on his invite to the US, and failing in the Iran negotiations.
Can we get JD Vance to campaign in every state for the midterms?
Well, then. // Hungary's Orban concedes landmark defeat to centre-right opposition - www.reuters.com/world/europe...
Can you do Kevin Hassett next?
No beard but that obsequious simper.
Einstein Visa? Or Epstein Visa?
Spoken like a true Crime Boss.
What a disgrace.
We are not just not holding any cards, Iran is holding the entire deck. Someone needs to put a sock in him & take away his phone. Donnie and Bibi are both unhinged psychopathic narcissists who panic under pressure.
Does Vance think he’s popular in Europe
Pro tip to Trump’s cabinet and enablers in Congress: “I was just following orders” is not a viable defense at a war crime proceeding.
The Supreme Court will not take Steve Bannon up on his request to rule on the precedent underlying his conviction. Instead, it grants cert only to send it back down to the lower courts, where the DOJ decided earlier this year to abandon the case.
Steve Bannon, a Trump ally, served a four-month sentence for defying congressional subpoenas related to the Jan. 6 Capitol attack investigation.
The fact that Felon47 has left reality and wants the SCOTUS to base their decisions on a Mark Levin episode is insanity...
If Felon47 makes it to trial an insanity defense is being built.
Discharging Trump under the 25th Amendment would ultimately require a 2/3 vote in the House and a 2/3 vote in the Senate.
Impeachment requires a majority in the House and removal requires 2/3 of the Senate.
If I’m reading 25A correctly, impeachment is easier. Please let me know if I’m wrong!
Again, the reason everything always goes wrong for Trump, on every issue at home & abroad, is not only the fascism & the incompetence, but also the almost unfathomable narcissism. Other people/governments exist & have agency & the world is complex & interconnected, but narcissists cannot grasp this.

He is worse than she was
Men? What men? Men who abused women?
The problem isn’t with Trump’s decision to oust Bondi — she was a cartoonish failure and a national embarrassment — but rather with his motivation.
He fired his AG, not because she corrupted the Justice Department, but because she didn’t corrupt it enough.

NEWSMAX: I wonder if you can respond to some breaking news we got a few moments ago that the Secretary of War has asked the Army Chief of Staff to step down
REP. McCORMICK: That would be news to me. That would be very surprising. I'd look into it immediately, because Gen. George is a brilliant mind

To those still in government, let this serve as a reminder that this administration will have zero loyalty to you, regardless of how many principles you compromise. If the outcome is predetermined anyway, you may as well just uphold your oath of office and be a real public servant.

It is one of the burdens of the Trump era that the silliest, most absurd things often implicate grave matters of historic import.

This isn’t an April Fool’s prank is it?
First I thought, “Yes!” Then realized this is all performance, so making a martyr of him being dragged from the courthouse will only ensure we have another ear-shot-off-raised-fist photo op & a stupid gold overpriced statue commemorating this charade prominently displayed near the UFC ring to come
Is he asleep yet?
