Cortez Masto to Warsh: In 2007, you said 'subprime mortgages have gotten a bad name.' You said you have no regrets. How can we trust that you're accurate now when you were wrong then?

Energy Secretary Chris Wright: "I'm pretty confident coal will lead the world in global electricity production when I die"
Wow 🤯
I honestly don’t see how the USA will survive the moral bankruptcy, democratic wreckage, and loss of international credibility caused by Trump 2.0
WARSH: The broad contours of the economy are improving. The potential of the economy, the real results of the economy are improving.
TINA SMITH: The reality is there was almost 0 job growth in 2025. That looks to me like not a roaring economy, but a weak economy.
I remember the Vietnam War well. Trump should too — we're the same age.
I was too short to serve and lost good friends in the war. Trump pretended to have bone spurs.
That war was characterized by lies, arrogance, and stupidity.
What's happening in Iran is starting to feel a lot like Vietnam.
WARNOCK: What grade would you give the American economy?
WARSH: Well, if i gave a student anything other than an A, the dean would summon me because I would've hurt his self-image
WARNOCK: Consumer confidence is at a record low. That's Americans' grade on the economy
HIRONO: Does anybody have the kind of expertise that Secretary Moniz had when he participated in the JCPOA?
CHRIS WRIGHT: Absolutely. Absolutely
HIRONO: Who?
WRIGHT: Our whole team
HIRONO: Can you see I have some major skepticism?
HIRONO: The rising prices of energy -- is that something you didn't contemplate happening before the president declared his illegal war?
CHRIS WRIGHT: No. We knew exactly what would happen
HIRONO: It doesn't seem like it, because the president doesn't understand how to open the strait
KIM: Are you concerned there could be real long-term effects of this war in Iran with fuel and fertilizer?
WARSH: If my reform agenda stands for anything, it's for the central bank to stay in his lane
KIM: But you're also charged with forecasting
This is already demonstrably incorrect. And Wright isn't even dead yet.
He just gave away the whole game
GALLEGO: Earlier today, you told Sec. Kennedy that Trump never demanded you to cut interest rates. Is that your sworn testimony?
WARSH: That is, senator.
GALLEGO: Okay. Well someone here is lying then. Because Trump confirmed he pressed you on interest rate cuts.
"actually, from a constitutional perspective, who won an election is unknowable"

CHRIS WRIGHT: Energy prices are still well lower than they were in middle of the Biden adminis--
CANTWELL: I want to stop you right there. There is nobody in the Northwest who thinks that. Not when they wake up & airline flights are being canceled because of high fuel costs. No one thinks it's okay
Chris Wright insists that collapsing snow pack in Colorado is the result of "the path of the jet stream last year," not climate change
"Senator, have any of us ever truly won an election? What is an election anyway, in the context of human experience, in the sense of there being both winners and losers? As Derrida told us in his seminal wo
Kevin Warsh won't commit to defending Lisa Cook's position on the Fed
Should be disqualifying. Probably won’t be. Don’t elect Republicans.
Warsh: ha-ha, students are vacuous snowflakes who run to authority to maintain their status
Also Warsh to any question where a factual answer might displease Trump: Sir, that is a great unknowable I could not possibly comment on.
Trump gutted the State Department’s Energy Bureau, firing the experts needed to handle the crisis he helped create by dragging our country into an illegal war. Gas now costs more than $4 a gallon.
We're demanding they rehire the professionals who can fix this. Now.
This cult-like behavior among people being considered for important positions should be disqualifying. Mullin got confirmed in spite of giving a similar non answer.
Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy: "This is the greatest equipment in the world that we're deploying, and it makes the job of the air traffic controller that much easier. We're gonna use AI tools."
RFK Jr disses Rep. Debbie Dingell's voice: "I'm having trouble hearing that ... voice"
We've found a new definition of "chutzpah."
Meanwhile his voice sounds like a Furby losing its battery power trapped inside of a washer on spin cycle.
If anyone wants to try this again with the next MAGA bootlicker, first question:
“Did Kamala Harris lose the 2024 election?”
They will jump at the chance to say yes. These toads HAVE to.
Then the 2020 question.
Epstein wasn’t a financial consultant
He trafficked in young girls and used compromising information to extort money
Ossoff: "You were talking earlier about Jared Kushner. The guy leading our diplomacy in the Middle East is bringing in billions from Middle Eastern princes and sheiks and going around the region asking for billions more while he conducts nuclear diplomacy on behalf of the country. It's obscene."
RUIZ: Bloomberg reports that Trump & the WH have benched you because you're making the president look bad
RFK Jr: That's not true
RUIZ: I think the reporting is correct. You're making the president look bad. You talked publicly about snorting cocaine off a toilet bowl seat. Your words, not mine.
uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
