Well, he did say “Americans” have more freedom, and by definition visa holders _aren’t,_ so…

Not to mention what he means is REAL Americans, not those America-hating No Kings protestors.

Paul Ingrassia is Trump’s nominee to head the Office of Special Counsel. His confirmation hearing is Thursday.

Back in January of 2024, he was part of a group chat, which has been leaked to Politico. Among other words of wisdom, this clown said

> MLK Jr. was the 1960s George Floyd and his ‘holiday’ should be ended and tossed into the seventh circle of hell where it belongs

and

> I do have a Nazi streak in me from time to time, I will admit it

He will probably be confirmed.

When ever I bump into this thread, and read the title, I think “Yes, and?”. Water is wet. We know that.

A couple of days ago, Congressman Randy Fine posted this tweet about Gaza:

> <https://x.com/RepFine/status/1979988648918467041?t=h7juhW9lxJmbIQmZVWiSwg&s=19>

And it’s not the first time he’s posted his desire to murder millions of Palestinians.

And where else _not_ requiring confirmation will this winner wind up.

But yeah, we’re kind of getting an inkling of SOME sort of low bar to clear.,

He’s already snuggled into a nebulous position ( “a former right-wing podcast host who serves as a White House liaison at the Department of Homeland Security (DHS)”), but yes he’ll likely be installed elsewhere.

That part (about the Democrats controlling the White House, House, and Senate) is from 2022. The point is to demonstrate the Virginia GOP’s hypocrisy by contrasting it with their current attitude.

When Democrats control the presidency and both houses of Congress, a shutdown is their fault. When Democrats control none of those things, a shutdown is still their fault.

Nationalize the Guard. Put out an APB for Soros. Or just maybe, you know, kinda, get the House back in session; get SNAP going again, subsidize health care for the poor, school lunch and breakfest programs. The whole ‘do things for people’ instead of ‘to people’.

Insult to Christianity, Dump leg humper, and vacuous waste of oxygen - Mike Johnson.

Oh look who spoke the truth….

_ **The Trump administration official added during a Friday press conference, “poverty is not red or blue, it is not a Republican or Democrat issue, it doesn’t matter who you voted for or even if you voted—that if you are in a position where you are in a position where you can’t feed your family, and you’re relying on that $187 a month for an average family in the snap program, that we have failed you.”** _

_ **House Speaker Mike Johnson, a Louisiana Republican, who appeared alongside Rollins at the press briefing, immediately followed up her comments to say that “When she says ‘we have failed you,’ she means ‘we, the Democrats,’ OK?”** _

I note she said EXPLICITLY " _ **it is not a Republican or Democrat issue** _

and then Mike “the shithead” Johnson had to walk that heresy back promptly.

He might as well have said "Oh, oh, what she _meant_ was, “fuck those lazy poor people.”
