It's actually mind-boggling that @JDVance would say Watergate would be a "10 hour story" today. Just to review, Nixon's aides authorized a break-in of the DNC HQ to install bugging equipment--in a caper foiled by a night watchman, who called police. They then enlisted the CIA to mislead the FBI that the break-in was related to a probe of malign foreign actors. The entire operation was paid for by a slush fund controlled by the WH. The WH also enlisted the IRS to probe hundreds of Nixon's political enemies. The AG, the WH COS and several other top aides all were convicted and served time for their involvement in the crimes and coverup. Nixon was caught on his own secret tape system conspiring with them but was pardoned a month after he resigned by his successor, Gerald Ford. That Vance thinks this would be a "10 hour story" today speaks volumes about the moral and ethical degradation of the Trump era.
JD Vance: "I think Nixon's historical legacy is enjoying a bit of a renaissance, and deservedly so. I joked that if Watergate happened tomorrow, it would be like a 12 hours news story. The idea that it took down a presidency is crazy."

‘We can’t invest in America because we’re fighting wars’ is literally the opposite of what he ran on. Biggest scam in modern political history, hands down.
Trump: We can't take care of daycare. We're a big country. We're fighting wars. It's not possible for us to take care of daycare, Medicaid, Medicare, all these things.

I WILL GIVE AN OFFICIAL REBUKE TO TRUMP'S SPEECH. BEFORE HIS SPEECH. HE IS NOT THE GREATEST PRESIDENT SINCE LINCOLN. WE DON'T HAVE THE GREATEST ECONOMY IN HISTORY. HE DID NOT INVENT MAGNETS. VENEZUELA DID NOTHING WRONG EXCEPT EXIST WHEN EPSTEIN FILES ARE DUE. HIS HANDS ARE TINY.

this video is evil and disgusting. Do not ever involve me or my music to benefit your inhumane agenda.

Why is Trump going after America's air traffic controllers, today of all days? It's one more way to distract from his decision to increase your health insurance premiums.

This entire post is bullshit. Therapists main task is LISTENING. Yes, they have to be insightful to an extent but it doesn’t take a genius to do that. It requires empathy as well which is probably why you can’t understand it…

This is why we encourage you to take Severe Thunderstorm Warnings (especially the higher-end 70 & 80 mph warnings like today) just as seriously as Tornado Warnings. That tree in your backyard doesn't care whether the 80 mph wind gust was from a tornado or straight-line wind.

This aged like milk, but faster.
Today I met with the Holy Father Pope Francis. I am grateful for his invitation to meet, and I pray for his good health. Happy Easter!

Kristi Noem’s M4-style rifle appears angled near an agent’s head, with the dust cover open—suggesting a chambered round. That’s a serious firearms safety violation. In any professional setting, it would trigger disciplinary action and signal a dangerous lack of training.
