Government shutdown continues. The House is on perennial hiatus to avoid Epstein. and the president is busy busy busy with decorating and demolishing. Literally and figuratively.
SNAP benefits will resume. Or not. Courts say yes. Trump says talk to my lawyers.
In the meantime, the USDA sent an email to grocery stores telling them they are prohibited from offering special discounts to customers affected by the SNAP funding lapse. And at least several stores that had offered struggling customers a discount, then withdrew it after receiving this email.
Let them eat cake.
FBI Director Kash Patel’s claims that a terrorist plot was thwarted over the Halloween weekend seems to be nothing but video gamers who engaged in tough talk online and recreational gun activities.
Kash Patel seems to lack the ability to keep his mouth shut. And this ‘terrorist’ announcement didn’t do much to quell the furor of him hopping a government plane to go see his sweetie play a concert.
He is incompetent in every way.
Mr. Trump did an interview on 60 Minutes. Lots of the usual ‘it’s all the Democrats and Biden’s fault’ blah blah blah. Healthcare is a disaster. The Republicans and I will fix everything as soon as the lunatic Dems reopen the government.
“With all due respect, you’ve been talking about fixing the healthcare since 2015,” O’Donnell told the president.
I guess he forgot.
Lastly, Tucker Carlson interviewed white nationalist podcaster Nick Fuentes on Monday, sitting politely as Fuentes criticized the power of “organized Jewry in America.”
Suddenly, nothing—including the racism, Holocaust denialism, and antisemitism Fuentes has championed—seems to be too hot for MAGA media to embrace.
Best reaction. “You wanted a culture where nobody was ever cancelled, where the only sin is lack of basedness or being a cuck, where if the media was opposed to someone, that’s all you needed to know and you would defend them.”
“You got it.”
Maybe now the incessant whining will finally stop. But I doubt it.
