Hunter Biden on Elon Musk:
“You’ve got some motherf-cker who’s made over $251 billion being a United States citizen, that got here and stayed here illegally before he got his citizenship, sitting here lecturing us on who we should allow into the US”
Trying to imagine the reaction if a female politician, if Kamala Harris in 2024 say, had done this in an interview, screamed and huffed like this, and then walked out.
(Also Trump’s ‘darling’ line, sheesh.)
PELLEY: “Bari Weiss was putting a thumb on the scale on behalf of Trump. It was never enough.”
He says she demanded 60 Minutes make Minnesota protestors look more violent and “describe Renee Good as driving toward the officer” despite video🤔 — “callously” firing correspondents
Welker: "Gas is up. Diesel is up."
Trump: "It's all coming down as soon as the war's over."
Welker: "70% of farmers say they can't afford fertilizer."
Trump: "The farmers are doing very well."
Welker: "What's your message to farmers?"

Welker: Do you have evidence?
Trump: All I have to do is look.
Welker: That’s not evidence. The local officials acknowledge they are slow
Trump: They’re crooked. Just like you’re crooked. You’re either crooked or stupid.

BLANCHE: Who the president chooses to pardon is not a problem, period
IVEY: What's the legal basis for that statement?

The Georgia GOP is corrupt to the core.
An independent investigation found that Derek Dooley — the clown running to unseat Jon Ossoff — had family members receive millions in taxpayer-funded state business, then donated $100K+ to Brian Kemp's PAC, which boosted Dooley's Senate campaign.
State Rep. Anne Allen Westbrook: "This raises unmistakable indications of corruption and urgent concerns of pay-to-play politics, and Dooley and Kemp have no shame in any of this."
