I don't really know how dumb Gaetz is. He gives me dumb guy vibes, for sure, but he has a law degree.
You need a law degree to become a lawyer, don't you? Dumb-guy lawyers do exist. Jack Thompson, that dude who represented Vic Mignogna...

Especially true if you pay someone else to do the school work for your, or your parents have enough political pull to pull some strings.

. . . . elections have consequences. we have willfully and knowingly damaged our standing on the world's stage. No surprise no one is going to trust us when they know the inmates are running the asylum.

Trump's personal history alone is enough to give pause. Tulsi is just the icing on a jive cake that no one internationally wants a taste of.

Speaking the unspoken policy: "Fall in line or get the hug out."

Ah, Tommy. Voted most likely to use the "I was just following orders" defense at the Hague.

We'll see what the judge does. There's a vast difference between having the case dismissed (especially after a verdict) and merely put off sentencing for the duration of his term.

When Donald Trump announced his intention to nominate Fox News host Pete Hegseth to serve as Secretary of Defense, concerns were raised immediately about Hegseth's undisguised Christian nationalism.

Hegseth, who has admitted that his multiple crusader tattoos got him "deemed an extremist" by his own National Guard unit, has deep ties to misogynistic Christian nationalist pastor Douglas Wilson.

On Monday, Hegseth appeared on the "CrossPolitic" podcast, which is hosted by Toby Sumpter and Gabe Rench, both of whom are closely tied to Wilson and his church.

During the discussion about Hegseth's book "Battle For The American Mind," Hegseth said that he is working to create a system of "classical Christian schools" to provide the recruits for an underground army that will eventually launch an "educational insurgency" to take over the nation.

Ties to Douglas Wilson? This might be the actual worst pick of them all.

Paladin, TRUMP DID NOT GET A MAJORITY OF THE VOTE. He got close, but did not get a majority. On top of that a GOOD chunk of those who voted for him have no clue what is in Project 2025, all they heard was 'Trump make economy good, Kamala make economy bad'.

EVERYTHING the Project 2025 alerts warned us about is going to happen, and the majority of Americans want it to.
Most Americans have almost no clue what Project 2025 even means. It has been demonstrated for YEARS that, when presented with policy (without partisan information), MOST Americans actually skew towards Democrat positions.

But Republicans are able to sell their spin better, and it’s usually some variation of ”You’ll have more money under Republicans”

You'd think Americans would wake up to their tactics by now. Trickle down economics has only benefited the rich and it's been like 40 years since Regan....

Unfortunately, the average American is very stupid, very ignorant, or both. And if that's the average, imagine how the lower half must be.

I know that, doesn't mean it doesn't hurt when I am reminded about that(and I AM reminded about that daily due to my job).

Is RFK Jr a DNC sleeper agent? He says he will work to get fluoride taken out of drinking water because it is lowering IQ. No federal body does anything other than advise on this issue, so it isn't likely that he will have any effect, but if he does and IQ starts going up, won't that damage the GOP?
