here's the full clip of Rep. Emilia Sykes's brilliant line of questioning that made Chris Wright squirm by confronting him with the completely unhinged comments Trump just made in the Oval Office about inflation and the war in Iran
Someone has to tell Trump that his good friend Kim Jong Un has nuclear weapons that likely could hit the United States. Oh yeah, Fox News paid out $787 million for spreading lies about the 2020 election.
BLUMENTHAL: Who won the 2020 election?
JUDGE TRAYNOR: This issue has become a question of political controversy. Justice Jackson--
BLUMENTHAL: It's 'political controversy' only because the president refuses to accept the results. I'm asking you as a matter of fact. Who won?

Don’t need anything from Canada? Well... U.S. refineries have imported 1.65 billion barrels in the last 12 months from Canada… and the Champlain Hudson Power Express from Quebec to NY powers 25% of NYC (Go Knicks!). Facts are stubborn things.
Chris Wright did not get his job because of his independence, nor his intellect, nor his understanding of energy policy. He got his job because he is a bootlocking shill. Kudos to @EmiliaSykesOH for exposing himm
Jeffries on game 4 of NBA Finals: "The Wu Tang Clan is gonna perform at halftime, which is a good vibe change from the special guest that made an unwanted appearance"
