I love how they're implying he insulted Natalie Harp by saying that their boss wants to travel with her. Not that she wants to travel with him, although the fawning letters she's written would support that. Ossoff just said he wants to travel with her.
The pearls are being clutched so hard they're turning into dust.

Contrast that with infrastructure projects that Biden targeted especially for Red states because "they need it most". They didn't vote for him. He cared about jobs and improvements for them anyway. He also didn't hold up FEMA in NC, FL, anywhere. Remember when we had a president for ALL of us?

BREAKING NYT: Federal officials said in court documents that they halted billions of dollars in funding for energy projects to states "based solely" on whether they backed Trump in the 2024 election.

Markwayne Mullin: "We are currently drawing up plans to say, listen, in these sanctuary cities where the local radical left Democrats aren't allowing us to do our job and enforce federal laws, then we shouldn't be processing international flights into their cities."

Thread:
The Voting Rights Act is essentially dead and it’s quite possible that we will, like when a similar SCOTUS gutted civil rights at the fall of Reconstruction, see a disappearance of much of the Black congressional representation, especially in the most heavily Black states, which are in the South.

If you haven’t heard about it yet, the youths are super into IRL human interactions, no AI, and “physical media” (vinyl! DVDs! tapes!) right now and it’s glorious. Like there are 20yo influencers that just read old paper books and talk about feelings.
This weekend I gave a presentation to a group of mostly college-aged folks and had a little line at the beginning of my slides that described it as an "AI-free presentation made by a human, for humans" and I had to pause for clapping at that part you love to see it

Okay this isn’t really happening anymore so I can tell you how l had “internal ICE sources”: the 3000 very stir-crazy ICE agents were all going wild on Minneapolis Tinder. Local girls would match with them and string them along for intel. They loved to brag about what they were doing all day
Will said he’s in communication with ICE, who are federal agents, which is frankly just as bad.

New DHS Secy Markwayne Mullin, in an interview with Bret Baier, says he wants to consider pulling Customs out of international airports in “sanctuary cities,” which would effectively shut down a huge amount of international travel to the U.S. LA, NYC, BOS, SF, Chi, SEA, Miami, DEN, Phil, SD….

ICYMI — Ex-Trump White House Lawyer Ty Cobb: “He's a demented narcissist. He rules the country in a very authoritarian manner with the assistance of a cowardly cabinet and even more cowardly Republicans in congress.” (From @acyn.bsky.social )

Because you sickos love this, here's the updated flip count in legislative seats since the start of Trump's second term, following tonight's Dem win in New Hampshire: Democrats: 28 Republicans: 0 docs.google.com/spreadsheets...
So just magical thinking then? Tots and pears? "We have a goal, but it's not our job to see that it's achieved." Sure, that makes a helluva lotta sense.
LINDSEY GRAHAM: Our goal is to make sure Iran cannot become again the largest state sponsor of terrorism. WELKER: Does the the president have a plan to guarantee that happens? GRAHAM: No. It's not his job.
