MSNBC REPORTER: I covered the family separation crisis closely. Will we continue to see policies like separating 5,000 children deliberately from their parents?
DON JR: You mean the Obama administration?
R: You know they didn't do that, sir
DON JR: Just get out of here
Every credible study of undocumented workers shows they are taking on low wage, unpleasant, back-breaking jobs that Americans are not willing to do. Trump repeatedly asserting that these jobs are being "taken" from Black Americans is revealing to say the least.
It's hilarious to see Trump attempt to distance himself from a plan written by people who initially became notable in the Republican party because of their work on his campaigns or in his first administration.
Trump on Project 2025: "Some on the right -- severe right -- came up with this Project 25. And I don't even know ... they're sorta the opposite of the radical left ... I don't know what the hell it is ... some of the things -- they're seriously extreme."
The dominant religious dogma among theocrats in the GOP is that the soul enters the body at fertilization. They know how absurd the moral and ethical implications of this madness sound in an age of science and reason, so they are reduced to pathetic platitudes.
REPORTER: Do you believe discarding embryos is murder?
SPEAKER MIKE JOHNSON: Look, I believe in the sanctity of every human life -- I always have -- and because of that I support IVF.
Republicans promising and demanding the impossible is an election strategy. Greg Abbott told Texans that he would end all rape rather than place a rape exemptions in the draconian Texas abortion law. Now the coin flips and Johnson places impossible obstacles in front of reform.
Speaker Johnson is on the House floor right now suggesting that no immigration deal will be acceptable to him unless it completely eliminates illegal immigration -- something that will never happen
THIS IS HOW IT’S DONE!

What a KING
I know Fox News is right wing FUD 24/7 but it seems irresponsible even for them to allow the second person in the line of succession to the President intimate there are numerous active terror cells in the United States based completely on vibes.
BARTIROMO: By the way, how many terrorist cells would you estimate are in America right now?
SPEAKER MIKE JOHNSON: I don't know. It'd be conjecture on my part, but intuitively we know* this is a serious problem.
*intuitively I know he's full of it
FAULKNER: Is JD Vance ready on day one? Trump did not answer that, Caroline
TRUMP CAMPAIGN SPOX: The more the American people get to know JD Vance -- unlike Kamala Harris -- the more they like him
I will be particularly entertained when Louisiana Republicans have to weigh in on which particular denominations of Christianity will enter the Thunderdome to battle for the mantle of State Religion.
"Louisiana Republicans even gave the right-wing justices the history to use. We’re headed into a future that completely departs from a core tenet of American democracy — that the state cannot impose one specific religion on everyone."

These weirdos are highly invested in the fantasy of men transitioning in order to hit women in sports, yet seemed perfectly content when a guy who slapped his wife around in public spoke at the RNC a few weeks ago. Strange how violence against women is selectively objectionable.
From "We Shall Be Free" in 1992:
"When we're free to love anyone we choose,
When this world's big enough for all different views,
When we all can worship from our own kind of pew,
Then we shall be free."
He thought you were an asshole 30 years ago.
If you live in Tennessee, I recommend you never go to
@garthbrooks
new bar. They’re going to sell BudLight and apparently he thinks we’re "assholes" if we don’t like it. Make sure all your friends know that. 😉
@TerryMatalas
I'm glad we got to see more of Marina in Troi as time went on. She's got way more personality than she was allowed to portray at times. Same could be said for Gates.
@wholesomefoxx
Dude is built like an anime villain and knows half a dozen martial arts proficiently. You're gonna end up holding your own spleen in your hands.
What it really boils down to with Main Roster vs. NXT is that when Takeover rolls around every few months, fans are rewarded for their investment in the product. With main roster, the weekly investment required for fans is higher, but the payoffs are fewer and far between.
@NotDrDeath
Oh and he started banning people from his TV show, including executives of the company that would have valid reasons for conducting business there.
@CeeHawk
My favorite Hogan lie was that he outdrank John Belushi at the afterparty for WrestleMania II, which was probably pretty easy considering he died 4 years before the show.
All these disgraced moguls go through a period where they insist they are making a comeback despite the very significant social obstacles and obvious business downsides to doing so. This is the wounded ego of a proud man vocalizing a fantasy.
Vince, who now has known sexual misconduct allegations from 7 women, I think would only regain power at great cost to WWE, its media value, B2B partnerships & morale.
Maybe he could install a new board. But how many more allegations are there? Does he reawaken SEC scrutiny?
@CeeHawk
Will you please attend a debate with a discredited kook where the moderator is a dumb comedian that is openly hostile to science and in is painfully unaware of his own lack of objectivity?
Becky Lynch shitpost trolling her way to the WrestleMania Main Event is a fairly innovative way to reach the audience in 2019, all things considered. I wonder what the conversation would be like if Ronda was half as good at it.
@atrupar
It'd be much easier if these guys just admitted they have no interest in science or reason because of their religious dogmas, because their attempts to square the circle with pseudoscientific word salad are even more embarrassing.
@RonFilipkowski
They also wasted their best messaging tool, the convention, around calling Biden a dinosaur that was unfit to serve. No to mention Trump's speech making it very clear that he was in the same position.
Trump and Vince McMahon both having paintings of themselves in 80's movie villain bitch boy yuppie clothes is another very specific thing they have in common.

As opposed to Aileen Cannon, who continues to prostrate herself in front of the altar of our reality's version of Biff Tannen from Back to the Future Part 2
@CeeHawk
Much like with Cops, there is a lot of knee jerk hero worship that most folks probably wouldn't participate in if they had a full view behind the curtain. The Military is messy as hell.
Jason Kelce taking a page out of Taylor Swift's self-promoting playbook, going beer-raising shirtless up in their box and competing for social media attention with her.
The fact that the biggest recording star on the planet is in a hardcore wrestling match is wild to think about. What would the equivalent have been in the Attitude Era?
Vince should take that $270 Million he just withdrew from his WWE stock portfolio to fund the doomed XFL and use it to pay back the Saudi blood money and invest in some health insurance and annuities for the families of WWE talent.
Montez was clearly selling his injury to cover the reason for the chamber being open when Logan Paul appeared. If there was a serious neck or brain injury they would not been carrying him out of the ring.
@CeeHawk
As soon as some of the top earners in the comedy business embraced the idea that they were being censored by woke scolds, it was a race to see who could fall down the MAGA stairs towards white supremacy the fastest.
His son helped produce the podcast and it was an important part of his life. They got sober together as a result of the podcast, and his son died due to cardiac arrest as a result of alcohol withdrawal. Next time try to understand the context before you embarrass yourself.
@CeeHawk
There's far too much pseudoprofundity with Bray. You can only present so many teases for reveals that never materialize, or half-baked concepts unsuited for the medium you're operating in before people completely disinvest from the character.
