BREAKING: In a stunning moment, Republican Senator Bill Cassidy just personally blamed Donald Trump for the rise in healthcare costs in our country. Woah.
1/2
I'm sick of hearing Trump supporters say something along the lines of, "How you all feel about Donald Trump is how we felt about Obama!"
That's bullsh*t.
Most of them hated Obama for two main reasons.
1. He's a Democrat
2. Because he's half Black
When Obama was in office, Republicans went after him for the dumbest crap I've ever seen. I saw segments mocking him shopping for Christmas gifts for his daughter. There was one where they belittled him for wearing a helmet while riding a bike. They pushed conspiracies about whether or not he was an American that were completely unfounded. They called him a Muslim, even though he had a well-documented history of Christian church attendance โ unlike Trump. Many still believe Michelle Obama is actually a man and called her a communist for trying to encourage Americans to work out more and eat healthier. You know, what Trump supporters today call "MAHA," proving, once again, that they don't really have any real values other than opposing whatever Democrats support.
Then we can't forget the unforgivable โ tan suit. No president will ever do something as scandalous as wearing a tan suit.
Yes, it's normal for Republicans to oppose a Democrat. But don't even try to compare why we all oppose Trump to how Republicans were against Obama.
Obama never publicly and personally attacked judges when they ruled against him.
Obama didn't sue his own IRS, of which he is the executive, for $10 billion, only to have his Department of Justice "settle" the lawsuit for $1.8 billion in a slush fund he planned to personally control.
Obama didn't name his personal attorney the acting attorney general.
Obama didn't defend the killing of unarmed American citizens by federal agents, labeling those unarmed Americans as "domestic terrorists."
Obama didn't sue universities that taught material that he disagreed with.
Obama didn't sue media outlets for reporting stories about him he didn't like.
Obama didn't gut funding for medical research.
Obama didn't appoint his top political donor, and the richest man in the world, to a very powerful position within our government.
Obama never tried to put his name on U.S. currency, get a new piece of currency produced depicting his face, put his face on passports, put banners of himself on government buildings, or push for the construction of ballrooms or arches he wants named after himself.
Obama didn't even come up with "Obamacare," that was Republicans trying to slander the former president. The bill's actually the Affordable Care Act. So, even his signature piece of legislation, he didn't name after himself. But Trump did name his online prescription site and child savings accounts after himself.
Obama didn't constantly call for media personalities to be fired for criticizing him.
Obama didn't have his FCC go after networks for not firing those individuals.
Obama didn't order the Department of Justice to go after his enemies.
Obama didn't fire attorneys general for not bowing down and doing everything he told them. He damn sure didn't call files related to child predators a "total hoax," as Trump's called the Epstein files.
Obama wasn't out blatantly manipulating the markets and engaging in insider trading.
Obama didn't accept a $400 million plane from Qatar he then used hundreds of millions of U.S. tax dollars to fix up, which he plans to take with him when he leaves office.
Obama didn't call elections that didn't go his party's way "rigged."
Obama didn't order "blue states" to unethically redraw congressional maps, trying to give Democrats an advantage in midterm elections.
Obama didn't constantly attack our allies while kissing the ass of dictators like Vladimir Putin.
Obama didn't start a war with Iran he promised he wouldn't start.
Obama didn't run up record deficits, he actually reduced them.
Obama didn't try to take over the Kennedy Center and put his name on it.
Scott Pelley issues new statement after being fired by CBS for opposing their pro-MAGA bias:
โNew management has instructed me to inject falsehoods and bias into a politically sensitive story. Iโve been told to include assertions that are unverified. To date, in every case, I have managed to ignore these instructions or refuse them.
Recently, politicians have been invited to choose correspondents for interviews on the broadcast. Giving politicians control over 60 Minutes interviews is not how this is done.
Finally, incompetence and unprofessionalism in the new management have wreaked havoc. In a case involving one of my stories, the entire program came within 19 minutes of not getting on the air at all.โ
Lowest ERA through first 10 starts of a season (live-ball era)
0.56 - Jacob deGrom (2021)
0.59 - Juan Marichal (1966)
0.74 - Shohei Ohtani (2026)
Ohtani also has a .936 OPS this season
In America today, we rank 34th out of 35 countries in childhood poverty and millions of children are food insecure.
Maybe, just maybe, my Republican colleagues would consider holding a single hearing about how we improve the lives of American kids.

BREAKING: Donald Trump calls JB Pritzker a โdumb, stupid slob.โ
Just a reminder that JB Pritzker just balanced the Illinois budget with a $0 deficit AND has signed relief for groceries and gas.
Trump is a 5th grade bully who apparently needs to look in the mirror.
