Donald Trump wants an Attorney General who will act as his personal attorney, and Todd Blanche has already done that job before.
Corruption at the DOJ cannot continue. The Senate should oppose Mr. Blanche's nomination.
President Trump's extraordinarily corrupt slush fund would funnel $1.8 billion of taxpayer money to his political patrons and January 6 white nationalist foot soldiers.
While the courts blocked the DOJ scheme for now, Congress still must act to bar this dirty deal forever.
Scott Pelley issues new statement after being fired by CBS for opposing their pro-MAGA bias:
“New management has instructed me to inject falsehoods and bias into a politically sensitive story. I’ve 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.”
BREAKING: In a stunning moment, Senator Cory Booker just slammed Marco Rubio for saying the war is over. The American people are still paying the costs of Trump's reckless war and this is the best response they have? Pathetic.
BREAKING: HOLY SH*T! Trump's Pentagon hires a convicted Jan. 6th insurrectionist to work in a top position with access to highly classified military information.
And it gets so much worse...
According to bombshell reporting from The Washington Post, Elias Irizarry has been given a powerful job inside the Defense Department’s Special Operations and Low Intensity Conflict office.
Irizarry took part in the deadly Capitol riot when he was 19 years old and rather than reassess his life after he was convicted for his crimes, he chose to double down on MAGA fascism. He ran unsuccessfully for a South Carolina state House seat as a Republican and now he's bringing his noxious politics to the halls of the Pentagon.
And Irizarry was not a minor insurrectionist. He was part of the hardcore band of Trumpers who entered into the actual Capitol building through a broken window. He was wielding a metal pole as a weapon, but didn't strike anyone that we know of.
When the FBI searched his phone, they discovered “a gap of data between January 1, 2021 and January 8, 2021, which suggests that Irizarry deleted information from his cell phone pertaining to his involvement on January 6, 2021." He was sentenced to two weeks in jail and was eventually pardoned by Trump.
The Post reports that DoD staff have "raised alarm" about Irizarry's appointment and "question how anyone convicted in the assault on American democracy could be trusted for such a sensitive role in the U.S. government." They were forced to voice these concerns anonymously, because the administration has a reputation for vindictive retribution against anyone who speaks out against regime decisions.
Irizarry will be working inside the office's irregular warfare and counterterrorism section despite having zero experience for the role. His only "qualification" is that he's a MAGA loyalist who sought to destroy our sacred tradition of a peaceful transfer of power. For the Trump administration, that's good enough.
The section that he'll be working in deals with embassy security and hostage rescue among other duties. According to two people familiar with the work speaking to the Post, it's some of the "most delicate that the Pentagon perform." When a crisis strikes, he will be totally unprepared.
“In the case of rescue/extraction missions, it can place our special operators in some of the most complex and dangerous environments we ask of them,” said one source. “To put someone so junior and new to DOD, and with such a checkered background, into such a sensitive portfolio raises serious questions for leadership.”
This hiring represents a convergence between two destructive Trumpian trends: hiring utter incompetents and politicizing nonpartisan institutions. This administration routinely hires people who are completely incapable of doing their jobs because they only care about MAGA loyalty. The result is a weakened, ideologically poisoned government.
When Democrat retake power, we must sweep every last one of these cretins out of our bureaucracies.
Please ❤️ and share to demand that this traitor be fired!
This mother fucker is a clown ass cry baby 😂 how anyone can say he's "the man" is satirical at best. He hates the truth when it calls out his shitty behavior. A child in an 80 year old body. Shame.
🚨SENATOR VAN HOLLEN JUST LEFT MARCO RUBIO SPEECHLESS:
“Netanyahu said he's been waiting 40 years to do this. Turns out he finally found a president who was both stupid and reckless enough to join him."
🔥🔥🔥
Holy shit, Rep. Jeffries just UNLOADED on Republicans for giving billionaires huge tax breaks at the expense of healthcare for seniors and kids, and a $70 billion slush fund to deadly ICE thugs.
Republicans only care about trump.
Dems care about Americans.
November is coming.
🚨FIERY: Rep. Madeleine Dean just TORCHED Todd Blanche over the Epstein files.
"The American people are not stupid."
Dean accused officials of hiding the truth behind mountains of redactions, then repeatedly demanded answers:
"When will you bring that justice?"
"When will you prosecute?"
BOOM.
By firing Scott Pelley, editor-in-chief of CBS News Bari Weiss has single-handedly destroyed the most brilliant investigative newsmagazine in network history, 60 Minutes. Weiss exemplifies everything MAGA is about: ego, incompetence, and blithering idiocy.
The far-right Supreme Court has issued another partisan redistricting decision.
Extremist MAGA justices have done nothing but advance the political interests of the Republican Party.
They have zero credibility.
BREAKINGNEWS: Secretary Marco Rubio stated during a congressional hearing that the war with Iran is over. Here is Iran bombing US bases in Kuwait just hours later. We are being led by idiots and liars. 🚨
