Nice to start cataloging the people, like @MaryMargOlohan, who are stupid enough to take @SecRubio's false claims about what the EU fine is for seriously.

Thanks for making that clear! Image
Big Dick Toilet Salesman says he is stupid or a liar. Image
Unsurprising that Medicare fraudster @SenRickScott thinks fines for fraudulent consumer claims are censorship. Image
@SenRickScott You had to bet that 1) @Eric_Schmitt would lie about this and 2) he confesses he can't tell the difference between South African immigrant Elon Musk, his Saudi and Qatari funded corporate person, and real Americans. Image
This wail from @stephenm flunkie @GeneHamiltonUSA should be set to music, it's so hysterical (and false). Image
@StephenM @GeneHamiltonUSA I confess I had never heard of @RepBaumgartner, but I thank him for volunteering evidence of his stupidity or dishonesty. Image
@StephenM @GeneHamiltonUSA @RepBaumgartner We already knew @SenMikeLee is this stupid. Image
@StephenM @GeneHamiltonUSA @RepBaumgartner Really excited that @MikeCollinsGA, who wants to be Senator, has declared that the US (or at least TN, which imprisoned Larry Bushart for 37 days for quoting Trump) can't fine criminals anymore.

Way to run on a pro-crime platform, Mike! Image
@StephenM @GeneHamiltonUSA @RepBaumgartner @MikeCollinsGA Know what's "disgraceful," @AFergusonFTC? That the Chair of the FTC is lying fraudulently about a fine imposed bc Xitter is dishonest about its verification process.

Why are you lying? Image
@StephenM @GeneHamiltonUSA @RepBaumgartner @MikeCollinsGA @AFergusonFTC I already noted how Kirill Dmitriev went on a made Xitter spree claiming that the EU censors when in fact Russia does.

But it is notable that @MikeCollinsGA is parroting false claims from Steve Witkoff's handler. Image

To add the confusion of the many ways Lindsey the Insurance Lawyer bolloxed her attempt to indict Jim Comey, there are actually THREE different documents.

First, what she purports is an indictment (but which was not presented to GJ in this form). Sig page looks like this. Image
The sig page for the doc originally docketed as the no-bill indictment looks like this (identical to what I just posted). Basically, Lindsey put the sig page from the purported indictment on the no-billed one. Image
Sometime later that day, someone FIXED that (the no-billed indictment) with a correct last page. Image

Let me try to explain how John Durham made you MAGAts all look like dumbasses.

By context, this email of 2 Russian spies talking about starting a Deep State conspiracy is July 26. Image
But this Russian spy report--the one you're all drooling over? Durham has, AFAIK, ALWAYS hidden the date of that. Always. 🤔 @ChuckGrassley is probably colluding with him to do so now.

But BY CONTENT, it can only have been written July 26 or later. Image
@ChuckGrassley Now, Durham concluded that the Bernardo emails were "compilations," which is a dodge word for "fabrication." But even if you believe the Bernardo emails are REAL, the one via which the Russian spies would have "learned" that Hillary "approved" a smear campaign was date July 27. Image

Unsurprisingly, fabulist Alex Thompson makes some errors in his cherry pick of Biden recordings.

The thing to know is Hur treated the MEMO (as distinct from docs from garage) as a personal doc, akin to Reagan's (and Biden's diaries).

Biden couldn't have requisite intent. Image
There are other likely errors or unfaithful cherry picks. Those will have to wait for a version that is not obviously cherry picked.
Here's one of my more comprehensive posts on the report itself.

FWIW, it was "National Security Adviser" @MikeWaltz47 who added @JeffreyGoldberg to the Signal thread.

So if it was caused by a drunken bender, it wasn't Whiskey @PeteHegseth's bender.

So @CIADirector exposed the ID of an active intelligence officer. Image
@CIADirector Then @CIADirector shared sources and methods with a journalist. Image

In a declaration filed this week, Trump's top DOGE at Treasury cited a GAO report from last year. Lots of people On Here are taking that $2.7T out of context. (And ignoring that poor Tom miscited some quotes in this paragraph, but we expect shoddy work from DOGE.)

But let's look at the GAO Report he relies on, shall we?

storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.usco…Image
Here's the report.



FIRST humiliating thing DOGE Tom didn't tell anyone is that MANY of these improper payments--the reason there was a recent spike--pertain to Trump's own COVID programs.

DOGE Tom says we need to fix Treasury bc Trump encouraged fraud. gao.gov/assets/gao-24-…Image
Here's EVEN MORE humiliating thing DOGE Tom told us. To get fraud #s he lays out, he relies on this Congressional testimony.

Humiliation 1: It's abt fraud in Trump's own COVID programs again.

Humiliation 2: Mike Ware is one of IG's Trump fired on Day 4.

Elon would like to remind you that Trump has installed HIS OWN BUREAUCRATS to access your $$, and thus far, his high school grads have fucked up at least 5 times.
Things @elonmusk's hand-selected bureaucrats have fucked up in 2 weeks on the job:

Forced out FAA head days b4 fatal accident
Screwed up Medicaid portal
Set up a way to spam entire agencies
Did shoddy research that led @karolineleavitt to lie abt Gaza
Offered unfunded buyouts
@elonmusk @karolineleavitt Why is Trump letting the richest man in the world fuck up YOUR OWN access to services the government owes you?
